The States: Where We Wish Texas Would Secede Already

Milwaukee's already at 100%, though Madison and the rest of the southern portion are blue and still have a lot to count.

I would assume all the absentees are included in these with the six day delay?

Edit: Actually, it looks like it's already been called for Karofsky.

Yep, called for the liberal despite the GOPs shenanigans.

I am honestly not as surprised as most. While the media threw a hissy fit over the low numbers in person they seemed to ignore the fact that absentee ballots doubled over the 2018 election. Absentees in 2018 went overwhelmingly liberal and there was no reason to assume it would be any different this time.

BTW continues to back up the belief put out there by people like Rachel Bitecofer that the liberals are going to have one heckuva year.

It’d be amazing if liberals won because not enough conservatives got their ballots in time

I was going to put that in the COVID thread.

At this point, Florida is on their own.

It was a tough call, but went with the states, given other rulings concerning MMA and such.

Don’t believe this got posted yet. VA ends voter ID and replaces a confederate holiday with a state holiday for elections.

Stupid Goopers can't even ratfuk an election the right way! I agree there was a lot of Scoobyism going on over this one ("Republicans find a way to win every time") but I'm curious if older voters turned out. It seems the people who would be least likely to 1) brave the virus by voting in person or 2) change the way they've been voting all their lives by requesting and mailing in a ballot are Old People. These are the backbone of GOP support, so not 100% sure what they were thinking when they insisted the election go forward as planned.

Also lets give Bernie Sanders his props here. I've heard and agree with the theory that he stayed in through the Wisconsin primary in order to drive up turnout for the state supreme court election.
