That first report from a heavily Hispanic county in Florida is not comforting. Maybe I should rethink my decision.

Kornacki the Snacky is great, but you can probably find a YouTube stream that would be worthwhile.

Everyone chill the fuck out. That's 185/762 precincts. M-D is definitely trending redder than it used to, but it's early as hell.

I'm not liking these GA numbers. Trump is running ahead of his 2020 numbers in every single county this dude pops up. This is feeling like 2016.

I'm seeing she's up 70-29 with 11% in. Is that because Philly counties came in early?

Explained that to my wife 2 hours ago, but I'm on stressing the fuck out. Just want to know if the NYTimes predictions build that in. Not turning on the TV yet, but not sure how long I can hold out.

Wisconsin and Michigan were the only 2 swing states predicted for Harris, now both even with Trump growing in the others.

I'm watching David Pakman's stream right now and with every small percentage added, Harris's vote total difference is slowly evaporating. Jesus, man.

Edit:

DDHQ called NC for Trump.

PA, MI, WI seems to be the most realistic path for her but yeah Iowa would be massive.
