Damn I think this might be the closest election in decades

Basically, to assume late Maricopa/Tucson mail ballots will deliver margins close to what Trump got on election day statewide is fanfiction. You could stretch it and try to argue that perhaps party registration will make it a close call, but these are mostly young/first-time voters that will tend to the left of their statewide averages.

Hey, as an R leaning voter I'd like to hear from you, what exactly scares you so much about the Democratic party?

Is it gender/identity/racial politics? Government spending? Fear of some radical reform, such as PR statehood?

Also, please do elaborate on your point about huge environmental reform bills if you will. Surely local/private solar or wind power generation befits the notion of freedom more than depending on distant power plants? Or do you think those untouched wildernesses are there to be exploited by man for some short term economic benefit? Or it's just about not wanting, say, huge carbon taxes on oil companies/gas?

What a nice House of Cards plot 

What’s the story with Nevada? That one’s too close for comfort.

None of this actually outweighs the crimes he committed towards his country. And I mean the other crimes additionally to his financial and constitutional crimes. It is obvious that the majority wants expanded social programs, yet he did the opposite, he killed hundred of thousands of people in a pandemic he actively sabotaged by downplaying it and going against scientists, he irreparably damaged the US' reputation among all of its allies, he pulled out of the WHO, he pulled out of of the Paris climate agreement, he pulled out of the Iran nuclear deal which is widely regarded as a mutually beneficial deal for everyone including Israel, he put back efforts against climate change again by discrediting scientists, he encouraged and emboldened white supremacist groups, he sent federal agents to illegally suppress protests, he sabotaged the election and democracy itself by dismantling the USPS, a lot of his (ex-)advisors are under criminal investigation despite his promises to "drain the swamp", he spent billions on a border wall nobody wants or needs that is effectively useless and hurtful to landowners, he gave billionaires tax cuts for no reason, his spending in general is out of control and the country's debt is at a record high. The economy you speak of isn't fine. The only thing that is fine is billionaires and the stock market since he saw to that, while the poorest and the middle class are still suffering, now more than ever.

This is just from the top of my head. That's another real problem with him. He said so many lies and did so many horrible things you cannot even count them all. He lied in office literally thousands of times. There is no Democratic or Republican President ever he is comparable to. He is simply by the sheer sum of his misdeeds the worst President in the history of the country and the foreseeable future.

Right. Russia is weak, but to me it seems like its information operations in western countries have been extremely successful at dividing nations. The US on the other hand is possibly the most divided western nation, with a plausible threat of getting its presidential election stolen by a candidate unwilling to adhere to democracy. Isolationist tendencies hinder international influence. Guess who on the other hand is increasing its international influence, all the while also growing its economy? China. To me, the US has never seemed this weak during my lifetime, and with the divided nation, changing direction seems quite tough. As a European with no special interest in US politics, I'm definitely lacking a lot of information, but each day I'm getting worse vibes, and rarely better. If anything, to me it seems like while Russia hasn't improved its own situation per se, it has managed to hurt western countries, thus improving its position internationally.

Also, not sure what the deal with North Korea is. Sure, it's not an active threat, but it doesn't seem like anything real has been achieved. Just yesterday we got reports that North Korea might be developing a submarine capable of launching ballistic missiles, and that's with North Korea having at least some sort of a nuclear threat to possible use with it.

They gave up counting today. Will continue tomorrow. 

And even with all of that, half of the country still sided with him. Imagine that. Speaks volumes of the way people see the Democrats. 

I actually watched Endgame in the hours leading up to the election, specifically because I knew that this was a likely scenario, and wanted to have that frame of mind.

Nevada is going to announce all of its ballots at once... I think it might be intentionally to avoid one side from demanding to stop the counting since the vote is so close.

Realistically though, Nevada is a lock. The votes left are mail in ballots, and mainly from Clark County (Vegas). Considering how mail in ballots have been going so hard for Democrats, it's hard to see any scenario where this doesn't boost democrat numbers.
