Pull up a county by county map of 2016 Texas and look at the current numbers for Biden. BIDEN IS ABSOLUTELY FUCKIN DEMOLISHING TEXAS RIGHT NOW.

Well we're running below expectations in FL, GA and NC. FL is almost certainly lost.

Biden doesn't need any of them but an early lead in nay would have made this a much shorter night.

Because we literally just had 4 years of Trump and have witnessed multiple "sure thing" Dem elections swing to the GOP thanks to overconfidence and a complete unwillingness to play hardball to the point where you'd think the idea was to intentionally lose.

And media outlets know this and are milking the suspense for all it's loving worth.

even if he does end up winning this election, the consequences of this are going to turbofuck the democrats so badly in the future. saying 'gently caress it' when it comes to minorities and instead turning all their attention to old white conservatives is going to destroy them when those old white conservatives don't have a trump to vote against and minorities have been even further disillusioned by this party that clearly and explicitly does not give even one single semblance of a gently caress about them.

Yeah, I don't get why this isn't obvious to people. So far this election seems to be reinforcing the idea that Biden pulled in a bunch of extra whites and lost other support, and a large portion of those people are either going to return to the Republican fold or not vote at all in the future once Trump is gone.

It's definitely the needle. They happened to choose three states that might all start off looking good for Biden but have then swung to Trump. It's definitely emotional and I think NYT chose those three for that very reason.
