Just typical media these days. Giving people hope that Florida and Texas could turn blue. Florida and texas were never turning blue. This race was always about the southwest and midwest. Arizona was Key which could lead to a Biden presidency if the midwest states go his way.

This has gotten tighter. Trump now at $1.70 and Biden at $2.20. Let's see...
Looking much better for me this morning. Biden at $1.28, Trump at $3.75.

If Biden wins I'll need suggestions on how to spend my $175.
I think I might buy an original MAGA hat. With 45 on the side, 'natch.

I believe now it's the opposite: if they stopped counting this moment, Biden wins.

If Trump does end up winning do you think you will need to change how you think of Trump supporters? I am not sure thinking of Latinos as racist is very accurate nor helps. I think the same goes for his other supporters. Do you feel there's a need to ignore a possible cultural divide to move forward successfully in 2024?

This is the closest FiveThirtyEight model I can find to the current circumstances. There are some where Biden loses Pennsylvania, but those include wins in Ohio or Florida. It IS possible for him to win without Pennsylvania, but no one found that to be particularly credible as of Monday.

At this point, I don't think the answer should depend on who wins/loses the election.

Probably not but it is easier to start to tackle the cultural divide from a position of power, with messaging from President on down than from the sidelines.

Just because Latinos from socialist countries prefer Trump doesn't turn his other followers into anti-racists.

He can win by taking NV, WI, and MI.
