    Early numbers in wing states are making Biden look pretty strong.

    It means Florida is probably going Trump... Biden needed to be up 2-3 points before the Florida panhandle comes in...

    I'm moving on to Ohio

    A "panhandle" is the shape of a state with a portion that looks like the handle of a pan. See the North West "handle" of Florida? That's the "panhandle".

    I've known a lot of college-educated idiots and a lot of "plain" people with more common sense than most. Why? Are you being an elitist?

    Probably not. There are still millions of uncounted votes and a lot of state left.

    Of course your statement is true but what do you think the bell curve looks like? Be honest.

    Thanks. Yeah, I understand panhandle (I actually thought this was about the one in Idaho!), but didn't understand the 85% relevance.

    So what's tonight's drinking game?
    I've been playing that you drink a shot every time someone on the telly says ''too close to call'' but I don't think I'll last long enough to hear the Florida result at this rate.

    Probably less so than Florida, but yes...

    They just ran Denton County... north of dallas... Trump won by 20 last time, and he's up 7 with 95% of the vote in...

    Williamson county ... North of Austin... Trump won by 10... Biden up 3.5 with 96% in

    It will be much closer than 2016, but probably not enough this year..

    (Shrug) It's always possible between our massive Hispanic population being told by media outlets that 'The Orange Man is Bad' and people who've fled the high taxes and ultra-liberalism of California only to immediately turn around and try like hell to install the same things in Texas that they ran from in California. But the state probably isn't quite there yet.
