Trump carries FL, OH, IA, and AZ.
Biden carries NC, PA, WI, and MI.
My predictions... hope POTUS gets PA and NC

Trump in trouble if he doesn't get NC we should have a sense of NC winner by 9:00

I don't see how they can pull it off without PA and FL...

Biden would need to hold onto MN, WI and MI and grab two of NC, AZ, GA, NV, and IA (but no NV+IA only). If it were AZ+NV or AZ+IA, he would also need the Omaha EV or rural Maine EV.

both states will be red.
fir reading the tea leaves on other states the question is how red are they?
if they are pink it might indicate a move away from Trump by some Rs.

Biden had just over 100K lead when voting started this morning in Florida. I think more votes come in for Trump in mail in balloting then Democrats or the media are expecting.
I heard Biden out performed Hillary in early voting, based on democrat ballots, by less than 15k, strategists said he need to pickup 40k+.

Correction: We've deleted an earlier tweet that referred imprecisely to the role of the news media in the U.S. presidential election. The news media projects winners and reports results; it does not declare the winner of the election
