    Not sure how much good news this is as Broward was +36 D for Clinton. Nationwide Nate’s projection is Biden 348 electoral votes, and Biden’s most likely win is over 410 EVs. Nates reputation has a lot riding on the next six hours. If we don’t know by 10.30 EST, Nates projection is likely significantly off and unfortunately we have a nail biter.

     I really want Nate to be perfect tonight, but what I want the most from a forecaster is balanced science.

    "Nate's reputation?"

    lol

    Why? I think his reputation over the years is pretty much already settled except for those who think 30% and 10% = 0%.

    Nate's point was that the GOP needed to make up ground...and between 3p-4p they lost ground

    To call a nail biter when you’ve predicted 348 EVs, and he missed the same exact phenomenon as last time?

    I really hope he is right.

    Good news, Michigan now saying they expect most votes to be counted tonight, so it will not take days as the count is going much more efficiently than previously thought. Hopefully some good news out of the mitten before the day ends.

    More people have early voted in Texas than have voted in previous elections. Especially among minorities.

    Man,  what a day that would make it.  I would owe you multiple rounds of beer, since I didn't take you seriously when you said that before.  I think Georgia goes before Texas,  but man... dream come true
    Not to go through the whole working class thing from yesterday, but my optimism has been that the majority of people I interact with are blue collar types and they are done with that BS that is Trump.  The BLM movement has also opened up a lot of people to organizing and lookjj oooohbg beyond the binary red/blue political construct.  I know several Rs and multiple non-voters that have decided to register this cycle that are casting or have casted ballots for Biden.  Granted I’m in Austin,  but the same is True for everyone I know in Houston.  Time will tell.  I’m hoping that a Blue Texas would reward us with a PJ date for the rescheduled tour.
    I was thinking about your comments a few weeks ago where you had to keep your mouth shut about Biden for fear it would lose work. When I wrote that,  I had you in mind. 
    Yeah well I am currently working in national security.  Which is a small margin of blue collar what have you.  Most of my friends work construction, food service, health care etc. which is a much larger population.  As far as the natsec crowd...no helping those paranoid maniacs

    I can’t believe I had to be a shy Biden voter.  Good news is I go on my last gig with those guys next week and when I get back home I am starting a QC/QA position at a semi conductor factory here in town.  It will be good to leave the Defense industry behind

    Thanks. It will be good to get back to working steady in an industry that has politics that swing more my way.

    He'll probably only win by 10 points.  He needs to make that up in whiter areas
