secession will solver this a free country be bound to electors or small swing state wisconsin maryland

but neither wants revolution or secession revolution dont come by voting

[-]

It was even funnier when they started counting the votes; there was a long while where it showed Trump up by close to 30%, but it was called for Harris. I have no problem with the premature call because it's gonna take a candidate unimaginably worse than Harris to flip Maryland away from the Democrats.

I'm willing to call California for 2028 now, too. And probably 2032 as well.

LOLStud@reddit

Tennesseean hear, they did the same for Trump

[-]

MistrSynistr@reddit

That was a freebie, though. Even the Tennessee subreddit is right leaning, lol.

[-]

NimbleCentipod@reddit

If the state subreddit leans red, that's impressive.

[-]

MistrSynistr@reddit

I think it was one of 5 that did. Someone made a map, lol.

[-]

LOLStud@reddit

Maryland isn’t a freebie either for the left? Doesn’t matter anymore regardless.

[-]

Far-Ad-7876@reddit

Yeah same in Washington

It's fun when it all ends in one night, and everyone thought it wouldn't.

I'm not insulting your intelligence OP, but I think a lot of people watching the news don't realize that everything being reported is merely a prediction and that no state officially certifies its election results on election night.

[-]

Possible_County6520@reddit (OP)

Oh I know, I just enjoy watching states get called before reports come in, and then spend my night watching in case it flips lol

[-]

bjtitus@reddit

And how often has it flipped? I can’t recall any occurrence from a major news organization in the last several decades.

Florida in gore vs bush

bjtitus@reddit

So once in over 30 years? Hardly seems worth paying attention to.

[-]

ThatsMarvelous@reddit

A case like Maryland obviously not, but Fox calling Arizona for Biden waaay too early (in hindsight) was really important

[-]

bjtitus@reddit

And that ended up being the result, right? No flip after the call.

I'm in illinois and I called it to be democratic 20 years ago

GreatandPowerfulBobe@reddit

Google had it (briefly) red and I laughed out loud.

keepcomingback@reddit

It’s just how they get reported. PA and Ohio were blue at first because the big cities report their votes first. Happens all the time.

[-]

abastage@reddit

had texas blue too

[-]

Rednexican429@reddit

I’m in Utah and it looked like this but for Trump

[-]

No_Supermarket_1831@reddit

Some states the exit polling is so far in one direction the result is a certainty. Same this has happened with Utah, which has been called for Ttump with no results in, and California will be certainly called for Kamala the second polls close there.

You should check out AOC

As a women who likes women: AOC is beautiful... for a representative, I mean.

Or Bernie, if you are into old dudes. It's cool if you are.

WY and Utah were called immediately after polls closed, with 0% votes reported. Tbh seems fine, it’s obvious who’s going to win those states.

[-]

Mitchard_Nixon@reddit

You ever hear of exit polling?

[-]

morphoyle@reddit

I deliberately lie to those people. Just did today.

[-]

Mitchard_Nixon@reddit

That's why they ask more than one person.

[-]

Possible_County6520@reddit (OP)

I mean with exit polling I would understand a lead, but this is supposed to be news.... 0 percent reporting should mean you can't call anything. A lead would make sense based on the exit polls. And in most cases the state will go that way.

Still fun to see if any of those early calls flip
