Is there any more dumps coming tonight ?

I think we're still expecting more from Nevada?

Georgia seem to be spitting out a few here and there throughout

GA and PA stay counting through the night and report regularly. AZ and NV do dumps.

MJohnston

I think NV and AZ are unlikely to release any more vote updates of consequence until tomorrow. This is all about GA and PA for tonight.

2497 gap in Georgia now, I have no idea how many votes are left

Exclamation Marc

Biden 1154
Trump 165

Clayton County GA.

At least 5700 more in Clayton County. Results due by midnight tonight (whatever time it is in the CNN studio).

Nothing more from Nevada today.

Georgia and Pennsylvania seem to want to keep going. Hopefully they won't break for the night...

I think Biden might hang on in AZ. It will be very close though, but I don't think Trump is winning by enough.

CNN mentioned approx. 15,000 votes left in GA.

With a gap of 2,500, that means Biden needs just under 60% of what's left.

But essentially guaranteed a recount and not sure how any later arriving incl. Military votes will affect that.

CNN are ET, 5 am to us.

In terms of numbers with the current numbers in popular vote doesnt this mean both candidates are now the two most popular candidates ever to run?

Trump has actually beaten Obama in terms of popular vote now? Maybe that will finally soothe his ego since it was his obsession of being better then Obama that set all this off in the first place

Nate Silver basically just called the election (read the first comment under his tweet):

John King is seriously impressive.

His presentation and knowledge is fantastic.

Hannity on Fox now and it's hilarious. Scray and delusional but funny all the same.

If AZ breaks the way Maricopa County did for a finish (56.1%/42%) for the remaining 310k votes

Trump 173,910
Biden 130,200

So Trump would gain 43,710 but Biden leads by 46,257. So Biden would win by 2.5k.

But obviously they are all not coming from Maricopa. Some votes still have to come for Coconino County, a decent size county and more blue leaning than Maricopa. Some smaller red counties left too but not much.

I think Biden will hang on, only just.

Yup, at the end of his divisive 4 year term, it's the perfect example of just how polarising he is as a person.

Biden as a candidate is largely just a proxy for 'Not-Trump', so in a way Trump is personally driving the two highest voting campaigns in history - for, and against, himself.

You mean they won't stay counting long enough for Trump.

Surely then even a couple of thousand of late military votes will put it back in Trump's column?

Yeah I think he will run out of votes eventually. Unless Maricopa is seeing higher rates of 'late' early votes leaning more red. But I doubt it.

Hard to know, alot of people that join the military are from the black community, especially from the Savannah area. I don't think there would be enough to tilt it back.

letowski

It was a big call by Fox News, and I'd say they are sweating a bit now. But even if AZ says blue, its still doesn't change the fact that Fox News and AP called AZ too early.

There is actually just 280k votes left in AZ. Next drop is tomorrow afternoon.

Bed time I think!

Why did Fox call this so early ? It was one of their first calls.

With Georgia likely now to go to Biden, the best Trump can get is a draw?

Yeah, he can't get to 270 if Georgia goes blue.

Exclamation Marc

Trump 4129
Biden 10841

Monroe County PA

Lead now down to 42k

Strange it's Guy Fawkes night and Trump just blew up a powder keg in the WH.

Most of the votes left to count were in a county which has 2/3 the population and is centred on Phoenix so Biden should be fine if most of the votes left to count are from there.
