Per NY Slimes data almost all of AZ's reported votes are early/mail in and very few are votes cast today.
Per their Data absentee ballots are: Biden - 1,283,467 Trump - 1,073,764 Total - 2,357,231
Total votes: Biden - 1,297,831 Trump - 1,090,037 Total - 2,387,868
Which means that Arizona is reporting only 30,637 votes cast today, excluding those for third party candidates.
Of those votes cast in person, Trump leads Biden 16,273 to 14,364.
The AZ vote total should close dramatically when AZ counts the in person ballots.
Trump by 85k votes per AP
All the early votes are counted first. At the polls today it was all Trump.
TRUMP TOOK THE LEAD IN NC PER AP!
If that happens he may still win because a number of blue states changed their laws to give the votes to the winner of the popular vote.
That would be the ultimate salt mine.
EDIT: I looked it up and he would get CA, OR, WA, CO, NM,NY, MA, VT, CT, RI, NJ, DE, MD, and DC. It would be a bigly landslide of salt.
Nice.
He's only a couple points behind with a lot of rural precincts yet to report. The cities appear tapped out compared to 2016 vote totals which should allow Trump to come back and take it.
Remember Trump won Ohio by almost 8 points in 2016. Florida he won by 1.2%. He appears to have widened his 2016 Florida margin. Which makes it rather unlikely that we would see an 8 point swing in Ohio. It's possible, but if he loses it'll be a nail biter not the current 10 pt margin.
Almost all of Ohio's reported votes appear to be mail in/early not today's totals. Those early votes are the dems strongest margin. If you look at the precincts most counties have less than 10% of precincts reporting the votes from today.

Also this year the early votes are counted first. Dems voted early where as Republicans are voting day of.
The early precincts rolling in are in Columbus and Cleveland.
6% reporting but over half of fayette county which is Lexington.
Fayette county, basically all of Lexington, just reported over 50% of their precincts. Fayette county due to UK is always blue.
I live in AZ. The amount of Trump flags/apparel and USA/flags and apparel I'm seeing out and about is ridiculous. At my polling place the line was out the door and there was an old guy with a car in the parking lot handing out Trump stickers and everyone was super complementary of him. Four cars in the lot were flying Trump 2020 flags. One Subaru had a Biden Harris sticker. I live in an area that I thought was a lot bluer than it appears. Even my neighbor, a Latino who I know voted Hillary in 2016, shared a video on Facebook last night of Tucker making fun of Biden's gaffes this week.
Looking through the photos there's literally maybe 2 dozen people who aren't media or secret service. It's the classic mash everyone together and take a wide angle photo trick.
If you look, there's at most three rows of people.
Just voted in AZ. The line was ridiculously long. The amount of Trump flags on cars or people wearing flag apparel has me convinced AZ will be red.
No its a flood of refugees from CA and Chicago combined with anchor babies reaching voting age that's turning AZ blue. Another cycle or two and it will be a solid blue state.
As an Arizonan I'm thankful for this. The state has spent millions on ads all over the place telling people what the registration deadline is. On top of that anytime you step in the MVD they ask you if your registered to vote, combine that with all the corporate "go vote" ads and the only people who haven't registered are those who are so uninformed or lazy that we shouldn't be bending the law for them.
Yes, and the education system is full of excellent teachers who are properly compensated because they're free to look for new teaching jobs where they're appropriately paid right?
Wrong. Most teachers worth their salt leave the education system because the Teacher's Unions and DOE have standardized everything to the point there's no incentive to be a good teacher. The last thing I want is a doctor with no incentive to be a good doctor.
My wife is a doctor so this one hits close to home for me. The last thing I want is a doctor who was trained, hired, and held to similar performance standards as teachers.
This meme would be more perfect if you had Biden somehow calling Wallace a "stupid bastard". Something like "run faster you stupid bastard"
You can tell the strategy is to just tear Biden apart and rattle him. Get him off script and the dementia will ruin him.
20 years? That's nothing. In 1936 there was a flood that destroyed Johnstown PA. In order to aid with the rebuild the state passed an emergency 10% liquor tax. By 1942 the state had generated the necessary funds to rebuild the city but the tax continued. In 1951 the state bumped the tax rate to 18%. Here today, 84 years after the flood and 78 after they recuperated funds the state of PA still collects that "emergency" tax, taking over $300 million per year from tax payers.
Oh for sure its looking like a nail biter. The thing i can't find is which county those 30k votes are from. If its maricopa or Pima that bodes well for Trump. If its a red county like Pinal then we probably lose by a small margin.
