This thread is for the Presidential election, my plan is to start marking wins as soon as they are called, sorted by time zone.
Some states are going to take longer than others. Polls generally close at 8 PM local time, but they can't start counting early/mail in votes until after the polls close.
Wisconsin in particular has an interesting system where ballots are collected by MUNICIPALITY, not precinct, they have over 1,800 ballot counting locations and don't report until ALL 1,800 are in.

Yeh, but Florida always looks bad
An Arkansan once told me that Florida was America's armpit.
Lol. Two weeks ago this forum was wacking itself off to Florida turning blue. The only thing Florida turns blue is Lemmy's balls.
Harris's vote sharing being down that much needs to be a wake up call to people who live in a revisionist reality.
Meh, I don’t think Florida indicates a general trend. It is THE poster child of climate change coming to roost in America. Makes sense that left leaning people would not go there or would flee given the chance. While the right wouldn’t care, and it’s their retirement utopia
Florida goes this hard red because the Democrats have given up almost completely on the state. And its just a fact that this forum has been fervently trying to convince itself that both FL and TX would be going blue.
And its not just that Florida is doing what was "expected", its actually that Trump is doing better than he did in that state in 2020.
If you don't get how bad that is, I can understand.
