For the first time, Trump now betting favorite at the offshores and has a 40 cent lead in the exchanges.

Ya. This looks like a Trump win

People must be dumping cash on Trump the way that line is moving.

Trump has gotten to as high as -900 in last 20 minutes. Exchanges have Trump at $3 over Biden (which for perspective is like the Globetrotters vs Generals).

I did not think the result would be convincing so early (for either side). I think Nate Silver needs to find a different job too.

AZ's interesting. VA's disappointing. Not expecting anything by midnight

Fox: 129 Biden 109 Trump
Huffington Post: 131 Biden 98 Trump
Politico: 131 Biden 99 Trump
CNN: 94 Biden 72 Trump

Not just Silver. But the dozens of polls that consistently under-estimate Trump’s support. Just like four years ago.

I don’t think this is over but it clearly won’t project the way most polls were saying.

The polling needs to serious reform. So many states well past the margin of error two elections in a row. This looks like an easy trump win or a narrow biden win. lol so many metrics had biden winning 350 lol..

Tuberville got elected not to Congress, but the damn Senate. One of 100 Senators was coaching football less than 5 years ago.  Also crazy that it was in Alabama. He’s not from there, has no roots there, literally only spent his time at Auburn there. I could kind of see it as the Bama coach, but no, an Auburn coach who only had 1 great season. Just incredible

I saw tweets calling him Nate Aluminum and Nate Tin which made me laugh

The Tubberville win is just absurd. I don’t care D or R, him winning a Senate (!!!) seat is crazy.

I get that it's Alabama, which nearly sent a sexual predator to the Senate two years ago just because he had an 'R' next to his name. But still, tonight they chose a football coach over a man who prosecuted the Klan and other domestic terrorists.

Well it's Alabama and he prosecuted the clan... to quote my favorite Alabaman "that's all I have to say about that"

Is there actually a chance of the mail in votes making a big enough difference to give Trump any of those states?

Trump or Biden?
There are more than 500k uncounted mail-in ballots from Philly and Pittsburgh alone, so yeah, they're a long way from done in Pennsylvania.
Edit: 2.2 million mail-in ballots left to be counted in Pennsylvania.

Milwaukee county has barely started counting.

This election might end up being decided in the courts. Fighting over counting mail in ballots in Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania.

Regardless, the electoral college will again be decided by probably something like 100,000 total votes again. With possibly the loser having over 50% of the overall vote and 4-8M vote margin.

Yes, easily.  Go to any electoral map online and see which counties are still counting.  Plus there are plenty that have stopped counting for the night, and will resume tomorrow.

ap says 90 %
4 point trump lead. its a comfortable trump win unless mke county is like the last stuff count. polls way off on wisco. i see multple apparently credible metrics that gave biden a 95 % chance to win wisco and trump wins easily. polling sucks.
