Screw identity politics and labeling, and start talking about the economy and how they are gonna help the middle class. Otherwise, they lose.
They aren't. Time to stop overreacting.
They probably can, but would he have beaten Trump in the primaries?
Georgia would be an Icing. As long as Biden holds his current lead, he will get 270.

Good man.
Hot damn who is that with the dark hair on CNN!?! She's an absolute smoke show
Is it allowed that with the votes Biden won by? They are going to string this out as long as they can.
Biden now 47K ahead in Michigan.
In regards to Texas, Hispanic populations trend more heavily towards the south and west of the state which are heavily reliant on oil & gas. The GOP has brainwashed them into thinking Biden will shut that industry down by adopting Green New Deal policies, even though he’s basically said he wouldn’t and the industry boomed in the first place under Obama.
I wouldn’t say it has veered strongly red, just reverted to the norm where we would’ve expected before overly positive polling. We have another election cycle or two before it turns blue, which is what most have been saying from the start.
Who was the black chap on CNN this morning (UK time)? He nailed it. Greater turn out is not necessarily a purely Democrat advantage, so Republicans can stop suppressing the vote now. Minorities are complex and shouldn’t just be assumed to be anti-Republican either, there’s plenty of conservative minority demographics.
Trump said he's going to contest WI apparently.

This is baffling. Border county no less.
At least we will know better and ignore the charlatans
Trump asking for VAR In Wisconsin.
Trump campaign fabricating irregularities in WI now 
That's just a stupid take isn't it? Since their fecked up EC system I can't write that every vote counts the same, but at least each electoral vote counts the same. The 60 or so votes that are still open are worthless without the rest that get a candidate to 270.
I’m in love tooAna Cabrera on CNN
Will he be sending down his poll watchers.
Heard it from Jason Johnson in MSNBC earlier today. Makes a lot of sense.
Trailing candidate has to be within 1%. Looks like that is the case.
I think that is a sound conclusion, but (and sorry if this is an obvious question) do you think the Republicans have got so used to voter suppression that it will take more than a few voices to change that behaviour?
IMO, 5 factors -
Latinos were the only group that had muted support for Biden in the primary (it's why Bernie won Nevada, California, Colorado, and came close in Texas)
There were no Latino speakers at the DNC compared to more than a dozen in 2016.
The Biden campaign did not have a door-to-door canvassing operation in most of the country (the few places that had it, ran it independently, with very good results), while the Trump campaign did
A lot of Latinos have been socially conservative
Cubans are a special case.
Basically they are. It was a tongue in cheek tweet, but it’s not incorrect.
Wouldn't go as far. I think it is a bit like weather (and stock markets), very hard to predict. Doesn't make it useless though.
Preliminary exit poll shows black percentage of the vote down in MI, PA, WI. Could be that increased turnout was white turnout.
Religion and Im here now dont let those other hispanics come in bc they're the illegal ones - probably. Dems would do well to focus more on the hispanics bc it will be the majority in the future.

Surely not?
Of course they won’t stop. It’s not just voter suppression, it’s targeted with laser precision so it will always help them.
Thanks for that - very insightful.
I would hope that the DNC doesn't brush this under the carpet with the conclusion that "if there was no COVID we would have had a better ground game so no reason to panic"
What’s the state’s % for calling for a recount?
If it goes to Trump, that is a major boost to him. Also an egg on the face for Fox. They called it to Biden like 12-13 hrs ago or something
I often find minorities to be naturally deeply conservative. I am an African living in England and that's my experience among African and Arabs here. They vote left out of self preservation, not out of ideological beliefs.
So in the US people ring your doorbell and tell you to vote for X, much like Jehova's witnesses? I'd love that in The Netherlands just to see what kind of people they send.
I don’t even know why I’ve switched over to the football.
The thing is, Maricopa is going to be mostly Democratic votes right? So I don't understand how they see it going another way plus AP already called it.
They also sent me sms (yes, sms) every few days telling me for whom I should vote.
