different poll closing times in different states

yet you are already making predictions

I posted all the poll closing times earlier BTW

and so far the 'swing' is in Harris's favour (BUT FAR TOO EARLY to draw ANY conclusions)

In Gr we used to have the swing on the official Singular computer company cards.
It was accurate.
Now they have stopped it.

they do not know anything substantive atm

it is all far too early (and actually Harris is running ahead ATM of Biden 2020 and Clinton 2016 in key GA areas, granted that is absolutely subject to change)

Polls in this part of Georgia are still open for another hour or so because of "issues". We wont know anything substantive for a few hours at least.

I want all to remember I projected Trump wins GA in a very close race

but it is still far too early, and GA was deffo one of the states I struggled mightily to make my final prediction on

real time

GA is not looking good for Harris ATM given a tonne of newly reported batches

[Vesper 30,234]

big FL news

terrible for Harris (not that she was going to win it, but WOW)

West Virginia sucks so much. How can they be so red given the conditions there.

[robsblubot 3,595]

I'm fully expecting a Trump win, so hoping to be surprised here.

The reason would be the most mundane of them all: "a name we know."

He's more popular... perhaps for the wrong reasons, but... 🤷‍♂️

(there was an old movie about a candidate who had a famous last name, so his campaign was pretty much around dodging the questions about said last name).

for a century plus they were massively Dem

but white grievance racial politics runs the road there now

(plus the fools think Trump will make them King Coal again, permanently)

multiple RW bombing (and other types) threats (both real and fake) in heavily Democratic areas all over GA

as predicted

☹️

[Vesper 30,234]

so far, my map is spot on (as can best be known at this incredibly early overall point)

This is actually a good thing as far as reporting goes.. That has pretty much stopped all reporting from our area. Its going to be a massive Democrat number when they start counting us.

On an existential point, regardless of Dem/Rep - another four years of a fat old rich white bloke is fucking soooo boring.

Walking on, waving to an imaginary friend, wearing red tie, white shirt a huge fucking coat with a wife that hates his guts.

Standing at a podium, talking absolute bollocks. Really ? another four years of watching an insane fool embarrass himself, the US and subsequently the World. ? So boring and damaging like bad sex. Lets have Kamala instead, cant be worse

Same half baked takes as 16 year olds. Same sources and echo chambers. Christ.

Theres going to be an old white man in the white house in January no matter what.

They used to measure swings in US elections too - Ford v. Carter.

That was nearly a half century ago.
