Florida is proving itself to be more Ruby Red than ever. Scott looks to win his Senate battle with a far more comfortable lead than he’s done previously. :(
I don’t understand the people who apparently split their vote between the abortion amendment and the Pres/Sen races.

And I’m drinking tequila.
 
NY Times needle currently projects Harris only winning the popular vote nationwide by 0.8%. That's not likely to get it done for the EC, but who knows as will come down to a few ten thousand votes in specific counties in specific states.

Apparently, polling place near Lehigh in PA has had 6+ hour waits today.....

Governor Ron DeSantis took it upon himself to tip the scales by spending millions of taxpayer dollars flooding the airwaves with a very pervasive, aggressive ad campaign aimed at defeating both the abortion and recreational marijuana amendments. Having previously succeeded in establishing a 60% requirement for passage of constitutional amendments, his deployment of that state-funded campaign made it difficult for proponents of those amendments to succeed against an already-stacked deck. Nonetheless, the vote looks to be a clear majority favoring both measures, and it's probably close enough to encourage the backers to try again -- maybe when Florida has a governor who doesn't view the state treasury as his personal war chest for funding immigrant relocation stunts and campaigns to defeat popular constitutional amendments.
 
I've been doing county by county comparisons in NC. Bigger % surge in turnout in urban centers relative to rural centers, and stronger margins for Harris and weaker margins for Trump in the majority as well (i.e., in urban and rural, respectively). I'm making an early call for Harris in NC. Pie bet anyone?
Sorry, I should have clarified that I was comparing 2020 vs. 2024 county by county. Surprised no one took me up on the bet with that premise.
