Everything crossed for a Biden win, or failing that, Trump getting covid again.

Trump up 4.6 in Florida with just over a quarter of votes in

 

It's 50% Biden / 49 % Trump on my screen: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2020-elect...florida-results

 

??

Florida will keep flip flopping for a bit - whoever wins it’s not going to be a big margin

The Panhandle bit of Florida still hasn't declared much yet I notice and that's reliably red usually.

 

Roughly 49 to 51 Biden it's showing at the moment where I am which is similar to the polls

Not good. :( As I feared though, and not necessarily the state that will decide things.

Oh I misread on here that NYT projects Biden lead +3 sorry

 

I am still reading that Biden leads in Florida by just over 2%

Nah I'm watching CNN. Wolf Blitzer and John King are on steroids at the moment there! :lol:

This is giving me horrible 2016 vibes

I know that Biden still has paths to victory without Florida but I would’ve been able to rest a hell of a lot easier tonight if it looked like he was gonna win.

It keeps changing every few seconds but now Biden is in the lead in Florida with 50% so it's uncomfortably close at the moment.

 

67% of the vote there so far.

If it’s true that these Florida figures don’t include all of the mail vote that might be slightly better news

This is giving me horrible 2016 vibes

 

Yep, except worse because this time I actually had a small amount of hope.

 

If it is close we'll be enduring months of Trump not accepting the result.

In places like Pinellas County, a populous area of the west coast near Tampa Bay, Biden is overperforming Hillary Clinton’s 2016 numbers. Donald Trump won that county in 2016 by just 1 percent. With an estimated 75% of the vote reported, Biden has a 52% to 46% lead, with 248,620 votes. Trump won the county four years ago with 239,201.

 

In Miami-Dade, however, it’s Trump who is beating his 2016 numbers in a Democratic stronghold. With 84% reporting, Biden only leads 54% to 45% - well off Clinton’s 63% to 33% margin.

 

From the BBC live feed - interesting - Democrats were right it seems to be worried about Miami Dade a few days ago.

Florida looks rather close. Biden is up in a lot of the counties he's losing when compared to Hilary and he's also ahead of Trump in some that Hilary lost and he could win them. We could be talking 1-2% difference between the two.

NYT giving Trump a greater than 95% chance of winning Florida now

Vermont projected for Biden. Again, no surprises... but it gets 3 EC votes on the board.

Trump has gone from 2/1 to 11/10 - basically, punters are seeing the Florida news and expecting that to propel Trump to victory.
