Master-Debater131 Posted November 6 Share Posted November 6 Florida was never in question. It was always going to the GOP. Whats so interesting is seeing how Trump is carrying the Latino vote in Florida. As for Georgia, it sounds like Trump is winning 25% of Black Men. If thats true, he has an extremely good chance at winning Georgia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raptorpat Posted November 6 Share Posted November 6 (edited) As of right now if has 55%+ but FL requires 60% I think to pass referenda. Edited November 6 by Raptorpat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master-Debater131 Posted November 6 Share Posted November 6 Its not The Needle, but DDHQ has a good tracker as well. These guys are generally pretty accurate, and were one of the first groups to call Arizona for Biden 4 years ago. Data nerds doing data nerd things. https://decisiondeskhq.com/results/2024/General/President/ Been bouncing around for Trump in the 60s most of the nice, and spent some time at at 69% before briefly touching 70%.

Master-Debater131 Posted November 6 Share Posted November 6 So far it seems like Trump is running 3-5 points ahead of where the polls finished. If that holds, hes in good shape. That was the question coming into this, did the shy Trump vote? Ohio was called for Trump, not a surprise at all. The Senate race is still too close to call. Its snowing, and I have been summoned by the lady for some hot tub time because of that. Hottubbing in the snow is just awesome. Trump is at 69% in DDHQ right now. Who knows what itll be when I get back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not really watching anything kinda listening to The New Detectives but I stopped watching news cuz polls in my area only closed 13 minutes ago and a huge part of the country is 3 hours behind so I’ll probably just start watching Archer soon or some bullshit like that. Maybe watch one of 3 winning Jets games 🫠😆🫠 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master-Debater131 Posted November 6 Share Posted November 6 Like I said, Democrats were going to chace the football in Texas just for it to be pulled away again. This was absolutely obvious for people who really stepped back and looked at things. DDHQ is giving the GOP a 97% chance of winning the Senate now, and they are also thinking it will be 53-47. Just like I had predicted. In the House, its roughly 55% the GOP hold that as well. They have flipped 3 seats so far tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master-Debater131 Posted November 6 Share Posted November 6 Bitcoin is currently on a tear. That could be a sign that the market expects Trump to win.

Master-Debater131 Posted November 6 Share Posted November 6 While we still wait on votes, one thing that absolutely must be said is that Florida has set the gold standard for elections. Im not talking results, Im talking how they are run. Florida is one of our larger states and is in 2 time zones, it took nearly 90 minutes to count 10 million votes. They were a joke for the "hanging chads" and now are the gold standard for elections. That is how elections absolutely need to be done. There is no real excuse in the modern age for votes to take days to collect. You can say what you want about them, but their elections are secure and quickly tabulated. No reason the rest of the country cant follow that model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Insipid Posted November 6 Share Posted November 6 A paradigm shift is indeed happening. It is not wise to call the GOP the party of racists when it managed to gain a huge proportion of the Latino vote this time, despite all of Trump's rhetoric against Hispanics.

Belize Posted November 6 Share Posted November 6 Well, this is a catastrophe. Unless a miracle occurs, a second Trump term is going to be an existential threat to the United States.
