2024 ELECTION THREAD
The next presidential race will be here soon! Please see current Bovada odds. Thoughts?
Polls about to be closed for a good portion of country and this crap gets real.
Overperformance in Florida continues to increase with 78% in, Trump is +2.4
How is Florida not called yet? Trump up a mil with 75% of the vote in.
So far harris is overperforming compared to biden all over Georgia....
There, Florida now called.
Florida just got called for Trump with 81%. Currently outperforming poll average by nearly 3%.
Harris is underperforming all over in Virginia suburbs.
Trump +11 in Florida with 81% in.
RCP avg was +8 and it was the highest among main aggregators.
To me it looks like we're now back in reality-land and can stop talking nonsense about which red states might be purple. This will still come down to Harris needing blue wall states and doesn't look very likely to pick up miracles giving other paths.
In a weird spot between do I want some coffee wife just made or to start pouring drinks
Trump 105, Harris 72 in electoral called states so far.
Silver went Florida +6.4T / 538 went +6.6
To me it looks like we're now back in reality-land and can stop talking nonsense about which red states might be purple. This will still come down to Harris needing blue wall states and doesn't look very likely to pick up miracles giving other paths.

Always drinks on election night.
Loudoun County Virginia-
Biden - 61.5% Harris 56.3%
Trump (2024) 40.2% Trump (2020) 36.5%.
Apparently trump is underperforming rural counties all over the country but overperforming with minorities in southern states.
I haven't seen this confirmed, but underperformance in Virginia suburbs was the first real sign of trouble for HRC in 2016.
States don't stay red, blue, or purple forever. It seems likely that Florida is deep red now no matter who the candidates are, and Georgia may be solidly purple

This sounds like projecting. It has been about 6-7 swings states for months, not some red to purple discussion.
