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.

This is as much a referendum on the character of America. What a searing indictment that it’s even close at all.
Exactly. No matter who wins.
82,000,000 people voted early. It’s ridiculous that the race doesn’t start with those votes counted and reported.
Counting before polls close would influence voting. Even if it were “secret” you could publish fake leaks. It would devolve into a shit show of misinformation, even though we do have that already.
Yeah but people definitely get influenced by the media reporting and the red states with earlier closing polls, it makes it seem like Trumps winning but it’s a toss up. A toss up is easy to influence if all you show is one side getting more electoral votes.
I am extremely troubled for the future of America. Not because of the current election results; but that this many Americans think Trump was and will be a good president. It’s infuriating the amount of single issue voters there are in the US.
AP decision desk update for Michigan:
More than half of Michigan’s 83 counties had not reported any votes two hours after polls closed in much of the state. Only a handful of votes had been reported in Wayne and Macomb counties in the Detroit area, which tend to favor Democrats and Republicans, respectively.
Remember; most mail ins are democrat. If it looks bad that’s because we are not close to done.
I am on edge and dooming. If Trump wins it’s all over. I’ll likely literally die.
Get your favourite show on netflix and watch that. No point in giving yourself mini heart attacks every time a county with 15 farmer’s ballots get counted.
Go over to Reddit if you want to have a nervous breakdown. It’s a complete shitshow over there at the moment.
I don’t get it. There haven’t been any surprises yet.
Pretty much every state is following as expected. Its going to be super close and come down to PA, MI, and WI.
If you’re looking at which states have been called then there may not be any surprises, but things like the NYT needle are following trends in states which are yet to be called.
Republican counties, with their fewer number of citizens, always report first. Rural areas are easier to count. Democrat counties, which tend to be urban, have far larger numbers and report later.
The trend doesn’t matter on election day. Republicans always get the first wave, then Democrats catch up later. The question is how many urban areas are remaining in each state?
Answer: Lots for VA and NC. That’s why AP hasn’t called. Ignore the websites or newspapers that try to give you truth before the urban centers (with massive populations) dramatically shift the vote around.
The NYT needle for the popular vote is currently leaning toward Trump, what the fuck is going on? lol
I’m losing my ability to give a fuck at this point. Everything short of large scale civil unrest of political revolution is basically business as usual. Whatever happens I’m sure we’ll fucking deserve it.
it’s more of a panic over county margins compared to 2020 that they’re showing on TV.
My despair is through the roof right now. What a mess.
I quite literally think I might have half a diazepam to get me through the next 6 hours or so.
We still got mid terms and we still got 2028. And if it comes to it we still got violence
It’s truly terrible.
How long before those are counted?
It depends on the state. In some states, they’re counted first, but some states do the opposite and some (NV) don’t release any data until everyone is out of the poll lines. The final numbers will also vary since many states just require a post mark on or before election day - these “late” votes are counted last.
I’m hoping this all amounts to good news because right now things aren’t looking good.
No idea
Updates from AP’s decision desk:
Virginia:
As of about 9:30 p.m. EST, Harris isn’t doing as well as Biden in election returns at the same time during his race four years ago. Election officials in several counties in Virginia have also not yet reported results for votes cast by mail, which tend to favor Democrats. The race is too early to call.
North Carolina:
Trump is leading Harris by roughly 4 percentage points with more than half of the expected votes counted. Many of the state’s most populous counties haven’t reported significant numbers of votes cast in person on or before Election Day. In North Carolina, votes cast before Election Day made up 83% of total votes in 2020 and 58% in 2022.
I’m in Canada and anxiously following this dumb election … mostly because I have to because whoever wins will affect my life too.
This is like watching my neighbours standing outside their burning house and having an argument about which fire department they should call … while the house fire grows in size. And the choices of fire departments is a regular fire department and other department is a bunch of guys in a half ton truck with buckets of water.
Other dept is Gangs of NY firefighters.

NYT got me dooming. I think it’s time to pop a xanax and pretend everything is going to be okay while falling asleep.
Welp.
