[!@#$%^&*] Florida.

Yeah, I'm seriously considering taking myself for a walk. 

 

For now, a workout to work out the nerves. 

 

Great minds...

Yep. Pretty much.

Winning North Carolina AND Virginia could be a nice consolation for losing Georgia.

We should have kicked their asses out forever ago. Florida is never going blue, and I am never going to Florida.

This isn't 2008 or 2012 for sure but if she flip Ohio and keep VA from flipping that would be great.

Checking out this thread throughout tonight and trying to avoid other places(Twitter), thanks for the updates everyone

I miss the old days when the media had a standard to not report any results until ALL polls in all timezones had closed.

I just got back from voting in North Carolina. I voted a little after 7:00pm. I'm glad I made it in time. I usually like to vote the day of election day/ to see/get a sense of how things are going on the ground. It's nice to see Kamala have a lead in NC so far.

My area does seem like a heavy pro Trump area but maybe she has decent support here as well.

And I miss when candidates were basically normal on both sides and, even if your preferred candidate lost, there was no violence and no fear of doom.

Me too!

Lisa Blunt Rochester elected Delaware's first Black female senator

Good for Josh Stein on winning governor here in NC. At the end of the day a lot of people here just could not bring themselves to vote for Mark Robinson and his antics. Maybe this will also be a good sign for Dems here in the state.

From The Guardian

New Jersey Democrat Andy Kim becomes first Korean American elected to Senate.
Andy Kim is the winner of New Jersey’s Senate race, the Associated Press reports, making the Democratic congressman the first Korean American elected to Congress’s upper chamber.

Kim takes over from fellow Democrat Robert Menendez, who resigned his seat after being convicted of bribery charges. George Helmy, also a Democrat, was appointed to replace Menendez, but did not run for a full term.

NC has flipped to Trump.

It's going to be very close as once again it seems many who were supposedly through with him are still hanging on. That this is hinging on PA - I wish we were not there.
