Biden has won Michigan and Wisconsin giving him 264 electoral votes. Remaining are Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Georgia and Nevada. Trump has a slight lead in all of them except Nevada which won't resume counting until tomorrow. If Trump takes Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Georgia, very possible, he would end up with 268 electoral votes. Nevada would be the deciding state. In Nevada, Biden leads Trump by 8,000 votes with 25% left to be counted.

Senate wise, Collins surprised everyone by winning in Maine along with Ernst in Iowa. I figured those two states would go Democratic. So with the 2 Georgia races, North Carolina and Michigan still to be decided, the GOP has a 49-47 advantage. The Georgia Special will go to a runoff election on 5 Jan 2021, so we won't know who won that seat until then. Republican Purdue in Georgia has a 160,000 vote lead with 7% of the vote remaining to be counted. In North Carolina, Tillis leads by 93,000 votes with 6% left to be counted. Chances are the Republican incumbent wins both. Democrat Peters leads in Michigan by 15,000 votes with 4% remaining to be counted.

Purdue, Georgia, must achieve 50% plus one vote to avoid a runoff in January, so far he's at 50.4%. It also looks like the Democrats will lose 5-10 seats in the house, no big deal, they have plenty of seats that they can easily afford that. But that along with the senate makes this one weird election. Nothing normal about it.

Who would have thought Trump would make gains among minorities while Biden gained among whites.


It's high past time that we start electing Americans to congress and the presidency who put America first instead of their political party. For way too long we have been electing Republicans and Democrats who happen to be Americans instead of Americans who happen to be Republicans and Democrats.
