I get that Florida is not in doubt and is being used as an early estimate what may happen in other states.
But in 2020 Democrats had about a 100k advantage in Florida in total votes (early + election days) when looking at party registration, yet Trump won Florida by about 400k.
In 2024, Republicans have a 800k advantage in early voting. Why would they need 10%+ plus on Election Day to be a positive indicator for Trump in other states? It seems if he just holds ground on Election Day in Florida, he blows 2020 out of the water.

It's a proxy for what analysts think the rest of the country will do. Basically a measure of voter enthusiasm around election day turnout.Gigemags382 said:nortex97 said:It's using Florida's win margin as a proxy. Trump has won Florida no doubt.

Numerous reports indicate that the machines are failing to scan ballots, with poll workers stating that the ballots will be “scanned in later. pic.twitter.com/rJsy692Eut
Even with that happening, the initial reactions from PA are very positive for Trump…. Just have to hope the voters don't get discouraged by this "accidental" setback

People had two whole weeks to vote early to avoid election day shenanigans. Of course the steal is on in battleground states.

Lots of rain today in the swing states of WI and MI. Better get all those mail/drop box ballots inside behind closed doors. Oops, looks like a bunch of Trump ballots got wet, better replace those with new Harris ballots.
Lots of optimism for a red wave in here. I was the same way on the 2020 election thread…hoping this time it pans out
This is great for the Dems... 80% of those GOP voters are women whose #1 concern is abortion!Captn_Ag05 said:20,800 people have voted in @maricopacounty so far.

If you think this has a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention.
If one side wins, pain and misery for the future.
If the other side wins, riots and chaos brought on by the other side for the next four years.

And you know when counting starts this evening, they will find a way to kick the GOPers out.
Interesting breakdown of Pinellas County. Trump is up 18% over 2016.

My understanding from a few GOP Texas insiders is that the GOP made PA and AZ two of the top priorities for their legal teams to deploy to…

I don't understand how anyone can say elections are fair and free when you need an army of lawyers to make it so.

Guam Results 50% Reporting
— OSZ (@OpenSourceZone) November 5, 2024
🔵 Harris 49% (+3)
🔴 Trump 46%
2020 Results:
🔵 Biden 55% (+14)
🔴 Trump 41%
Early results are in, and the race for Delegate in the Northern Mariana Islands is incredibly close right now:
— Elections Daily (@Elections_Daily) November 5, 2024
Kimberlyn King-Hinds (R) - 37.4%
Ed Propst (D) - 34.2%
John Gonzales (I) - 19.8%
James Rayphand (I) - 5.9%
Currently, the territory is represented by a Democrat.
If Republicans are able to flip the Delegate race in the CNMI and hold on in Guam, they're likely to hold an outright majority of non-voting Delegates to Congress.
