This has been an emotional roller coaster of a week. I'm sure not for just myself either. I don't know if I'll ever be able to look at political polling the same. Going in to Tuesday I was pretty assured of a dominant win by Biden, taking the Senate by 2 seats, and expanding the House by 10. I also figured there was no way Trump could expand on his support from '16. It's apparent I'd never be able to feed myself with a bookie's job up the road in Vegas.
  Watching the results start to roll in Tuesday night was frightful. One advantage of the Florida boondoggle back in 2000 was that it caused them to get their poop together when it comes to running an election. They have become pretty accurate and quick these days. As it, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Georgia started to come in it felt like deja'vu all over again. It was going to be another long night. After a couple hours sleep it was off to Vegas for Brenda's eye appointment. It was anxiety inducing not being able to get instant info.
  By now we have a clearer sight on the results. But Tuesday night/ Wednesday morning seemed like '16 all over again. The pandemic and its resulting mail in balloting, with different rules in each state's counting methods, resulted in wild swings from voting day. More anxiety inducing stuff.
  For those on the opposite side of the political railroad tracks, as Bill Clinton once said, "I feel your pain".

No pain here. Just patiently waiting for the correction. This will not stand.

First big lawsuit to hit tomorrow. Key state by key state will fall.  Calls will be reversed.

You know this is not the first time you mentioned going to Vegas for Brenda and I realized I never asked how things were and if there was a severe issue. I hope she’s ok.

When push comes to shove, any political differences are insignificant and her well being should be the main concern. As citizens we’ve all had our chance to have a say by voting and discussion of why we feel the way we do on this board. Our role is over, now it’s in the hands of the ones in charge.

She is doing good. Thanks for asking. It's been an ongoing thing for some time now. I'm not sure it's getting much better. But at least it's not getting worse, like it was for a while there.  cooldude

I just feel for the Bidens and the Clintons once President Trump is sworn in for his second term. If there is any justice left in the world they will pay this time.

I'll just take the first part here,

"Going in to Tuesday I was pretty assured of a dominant win by Biden, taking the Senate by 2 seats, and expanding the House by 10. I also figured there was no way Trump could expand on his support from '16"

Like you to think about that for a while.  Republicans hold the Senate and make inroads in the House in the face of the polls you cite. It should have been a Congressional slam dunk for the Democrats but it wasn't. Not close to what folks were predicting.

Yet Trump doesn't prevail? This would mean Republicans, lots of them, voted GOP on the down ballot but voted for Biden?

There is no alternate universe where this makes any sense or even is possible.

It happens all the time. Our Senator-elect here got many more votes than Biden. There are tons of this kind of example, not just this election, but most others also.

There’s several irregularities with numbers on the democrat side in several states that are under investigation. The truth will come out soon.
