They should do an In-Season tournament JUST made up of the Midwest West teams to see who gets to go East.

Very little Electoral College bias in 2024:
When the NYT Needle estimates shut down, Trump was on track for a 1.5 point national popular vote win.
His margins in PA/MI/WI ranged from 1.1 points to 2.1 points.
Pennsylvania was the tipping point state that got Trump to an Electoral College majority.

ABC News has projected that Proposition 139, protecting abortion rights, will pass in Arizona, overturning the state's 15-week ban. Similar measures have also passed in Colorado and Maryland, where abortion was already legal.

Donald Trump is probably the favorite to win the popular vote at this point. I can't say many in either party would have expected this outcome even a year ago.

Pretty clear picture emerging in the rust belt. In whatever's completed, Harris is just underrunning Biden all across the board, no matter the region or the demographic. Now we wait to see what it looks like in the remaining suburban and urban vote, but she'll need a big swing.

Still very early, but in counties where 90%+ is reporting there's a pretty clear pattern that Trump is holding or improving upon his 2020 margins in rural areas.

Florida, Georgia, and Virginia are known for counting their ballots *very* quickly.
So if you have stuff to do, do it in the next 12 minutes.

I love voting in San Francisco because my polling place is my neighbor's garage. Our city will never not be just a little weird.

Totally true, nobody knows a single damn thing until actual numbers come in this evening. There will be a lot of totally useless stuff about long lines until then and I just ignore all of it.

Over the next 48 hours, some of you will treat predictors who said 52/48 like gods and predictors who said 48/52 like morons, and I want to say in advance how deeply I hate you.

@SeanTrende When I flip a coin four times and it ends up four heads, it means something deep about my manhood.
