Ready for Election night!
I will be posting into this blog post as the night progresses.
This post may get more joyous or despairing, depending on how the results go.
Starting with TYT, the progressive network that reluctantly predicted that Trump would win.
This year? Not predicting a Trump victory. Not predicting a close election. Predicting a Biden BLOW OUT!!!
6:21 PM
Switched to MSNBC. My God! They love exit polls! Which may or may not mean anything.
7% of Nevada voters think the economy is excellent. Yeah, I do hear the rich are getting richer. So, congratulations, ye mighty handful. 69% think wearing masks is a public safety responsibility.
Ok, actually, this is from the crawl at the bottom of the screen. I swear, they've run about 200 commercials in a row.
7:00 PM
Indiana for Trump. Others too close early to call.
Trump 11 Biden 0
7:24 PM
The tension is too much, so we're watching Who Wants to be A Millionaire for a little while.
7:37 PM
Vermont goes to Biden.
Trump 11 Biden 3
So many states way too close. Florida is scary. Biden's leading, but the Panhandle yet to come in.
I don't understand anyone who would have voted for Trump. I know I'm surrounded by Trump voters, but I still can't see how they reach that conclusion.
7:52 PM
I see that HuffPost is reporting different electoral numbers than MSNBC, but I can't tell which states they are - Biden 16 Trump 13.
7:58 PM
Kentucky called for Trump. Yuck.
Trump 19 Biden 3
8:01
Slew of states!
Biden 44 Trump 26
I wish I could tell you all the states. I know they include Massachusetts and Maryland. Trump gets Oklahoma.
Still have little idea on the Senate.
Nobody's talking about the house.
Florida is a mess, as usual.
8:12
Tennesse for Trump.
Biden 44 Trump 37
Texas looks more promising than Florida. But who knows?
McConnell wins. Turtle Man comes back. Blech. Hopefully, as minority leader.
To update, Biden wins New Jersey and Delaware. Those are the states I missed earlier.
8:23 PM
West Virginia Trump Connecticut Biden
Biden 51 Trump 42
Some states are interesting but still too early.
My heart is pounding.
8:51 PM
Arkansas Trump
Biden 51 Trump 48
Rural Georgia for Trump - we'll see about the Metro.
We took a chocolate break. Georgia Democratic Senate candidate Warnock in runoff position.

Biden 80 Trump 48
Texan Jon Cornyn coming back to Senate. Blech. Another Republican weasel.

Coronavirus is raging in South Dakota. Some lessons are hard to learn.
Nobody has gained ground yet.

In contact with my two older sons. They are frustrated and worried. It's frustrating. I'm worried too. But no major Presidential state flips have yet occurred.
South Carolina Trump
Biden 89 Trump 72
I'm sick of hearing about the difference between early voting and same day voting. Blasted Trump super spreaders.
10:18 PM
New Mexico Biden
Biden 94 Trump 80 - didn't catch how Trump got to 80

Graham going back. I think I just threw up in my mouth.
11:00 PM
California Oregon Washington Biden
Biden 192 Trump 114
HuffPost has Biden at 209 and Trump 112. I don't know what the differences are.
It looks like the big three - Michigan, Wisconsin & Pennsylvania will not have results for one to five days. Technically, I should go to bed. It wouldn't matter. I'm not getting any sleep. No way can I rest knowing that Trump could remain in office.
I wish they would at least call Arizona. A flip for the Dems might ease my mind.
11;30 PM
Biden has pulled ahead in the popular vote.
11:48 PM
So this won't run on forever, I may end this post at midnight, but start a new one for November 4th.
I'm not despairing yet, but i am deeply frustrated and worried.
11:58 PM
Ohio Trump Damn
Biden 192 Trump 132
