Trump leading popular vote thus far. That is surprising. Did not see that against Hillary/Biden.

Awesome
Love the brutality of this threadEarly word is Trump will do better than expected in Pennsylvania.
How is Harris still losing in VA with 52% in? 
Seats called for Turmp. Most likely won. (calls can be wrong)
Polls close from east to west. Middle is largely red. So Trump taking a lead is expected. No major upsets for either side so far..
He has won it, but far from the finishing line.
I would also like to know the answer to this. I am quite confused.
Yes cause democratic western states haven’t been counted. He will not win the popular vote even if he wins the election.
We can decently infer from swings. It's already breaking for trump.
Ah okay, as in our results here they typically show the “leading” numbers. In that case, he’s not that far away from taking it.
Apparently Republicans will control the Senate no matter what now?
If he wins any of MI, WI, PA, or outlier VA, then he wins the presidency. Haris needs all four of these states. Trump only needs one.
But he has not won it yet. Too early.
Seems America really can't tolerate a woman as president. They'd rather a dementia-riddled rapist instead.
Seats!
Depends on the drug. Despite Amendment 3 failing, medical marijuana is so easy to get. That, with a black market supported by medical, and the regular black market, it’s available in all forms. Even mushrooms (capsule or honey) are as easy as finding the right Instagram account where shipments come in nice packaging and branding.
It means he has 177 electoral votes of the 270 needed to win. Bear in mind that none of these numbers mean anything outside the context of the 7 key swing states that are actually competitive.
Yeah. if the leads are big enough, and depending on which counties are yet to report, they estimate how its going.. Gets called before all votes are in.
It's a high threshold.. almost certainly means he is winning the ones called for him.
Reason I'm still being a bit optimistic is that the areas the Harris campaign focused on indeed look like they will be the one path to victory. Trump def outperforming in existing and pre existing rural counties in particular but that's not entirely surprising to me given how the Rs railed against early and absentee voting last time around and probably gave up a lot of votes with it.
So I'm guessing they are called "swing states" because they tend to swing back and forth as to who the majority vote for in recent elections?
O yeah, California will probably tilt popular vote towards Kamala.
Yep, it's remarkably sad.
And if that happens I'll sit back and laugh at the whatever happens.
Because Northern VA (NOVA) always come it last and that's where most of the Democratic margin come from. At the moment it looks like a +5 win, which is a 5 point shift rightward from 2020.How is Harris still losing in VA with 52% in?
Which is huge right given she’s sat on a paltry 99? Or have they been calling only typically red states? How are the swing states going so far - I read that he’s leading in all.
Virginia is looking dicey. Badly underperforming there.
Spot on. They swing either way depending on how well the candidates do in campaigns. For example, Trump won Georgia in 2016, then Biden won it in 2020, and it looks like Trump will win it again this year. Same with Arizona.
Major population centers not reporting yet
Freedom, guns, fast cars, and big titties. What’s not to understand?
Yes. Most secured states are considered given for each party.
Makes sense. Thanks
How many elecoral votes they have at the moment is not important because states likes California, Illinois, Washington, Oregon, Minnesota, and several others are automatically Dem states. The only ones that merit paying attention to are the 7 swing states, since we mostly don't know who will win them.
Real chance Harris doesn't even win the popular vote.

I would assume that plays a role as well

That’s what my friend said - that it’ll be hilarious if it happens and that the US deserve it
Personally, while it will be entertaining, vile abhorrent people like Trump and his administration winning this is bad for the world at large and a huge win for the extemist right wing politics and values, everywhere. It’s more important than people (outside the US) think.
Decision Desk have called North Carolina for Trump.
Up to this past weekend I saw imports driven by Puerto Ricans destroy their domestics.
NYT needle page showing Harris projected to be ahead of Trump by just 0.4% for the Popular vote.
Isn't that low? I thought Dems get a lot more votes.
