Postal and early voting favors Biden. So if these votes are counted before/on election day like in Florida the trend will shift to Trump as live in the day votes are counted during the day. When postal/early votes aren't counted until after the polls close the live/on election day votes come in first and the postal/early votes take longer to count, so things get better for Biden as the count goes on.

I'm clinging onto you here.
Everyone else on here is depressing me with doom and gloom for feck sake
Cheers. Yeah, I wasn't going to. Frustrating that people just react with condescension when they don't understand though, innit.
I have never seen anyone so perfect on a screen as John King is , this guy is absolutely incredible
Everyone - Fulton County isn’t reporting yet. Calm down over Georgia for the time being.
Now it’s starting to come in. Watch the numbers flip.

Biden outperforming polls in Ohio? Thought that would go to Trump. He's ahead 60-40 right now.
Yeah, im not doing this again. Night.
Texas blue... 
Was Texas less likely to flip than Florida ?
Deja vu.
Florida may look close now but it's done and dusted after panhandle votes come in.

Why show Texas as blue if you only have a handful of votes.
Trump was 7/4 ten minutes ago and now EVS, I think I’m going to keep my money in my pocket.
Florida is dead, not that close in the end.
Elsewhere good for Dems

got to keep up the tension for viewers
Yes, quite.
A fecking disgrace that this is a nail-biter.
America has had four years of a mad man.

Yes. But both were considered toss ups. Florida more so.
Had late lunch with a friend and Trump feels stronger than the pollsters would have us believe
Still think Biden wins but it will be really close

AND ITS LIVE
AND ITS LIVE
A rolls royce.
can't really call a state after 0.1% of counted votes
It’s just people’s 2016 PTSD kicking in, seriously Biden is showing excellent signs of doing well in the suburbs and some in working class areas. So far at least I’m really not worried at all.
NYT calling Illinois in favour of Biden but with 0% vote called.
How do they make this call?
How do they make this call?
Hahahaha same.
One of two things:
- Pollsters fecked up Florida Cubans and only them. Biden win.
- Trump wins NC, GA, FL and has a 50/50 shot going into Penn.

Even a close Biden win isn't really good enough. This election had to be a full on landslide rejection of Trumpian politics. In 4 years it'll just be another Trump like figure - his anointed succesor - even if he loses, and they'll probably win.
Unfortunately behind a paywall here.
Texas is on the table Boys!
Seems like a lot of states having the pattern of early Biden lead due to mail-in voting and then Trump catching up when they count today’s.
Florida is done but the weird Cuban american situation might skew the bigger picture.
Still, Georgia also looking bad, need NC to pull this out.

I'm shocked how well Biden is doing in Ohio.
I thought that was going to be a close run race but he's flying away there

Because Trump is more likely to transform into a giant shark than to win Illinois. They could have called it before the polls even opened.
Politico has it 88-55 currently.
It could be Trump again I believe. The law allows it.
Illinois is as safely blue as it gets. Well, maybe not as safe as California but still, absolutely 100% certain to go to Biden.
Georgia is not looking bad.
