This was too traumatic four years ago. It would be better for my health to just not deal with this tonight at all.

I flip between Fox, CNN, and MSNBC on Election Night. They're all next to each other on my cable system.

But, it can be very rough listening to Wolf Blitzer when he gets superexcited about some very minor change in vote totals being reported.

Florida has the chance to choke out potus early on here. Let's see how things shake out in the Sunshine State.

Edit to say: Fk it could be gg Biden in Florida with that Miami-Dade number.

MSNBC is currently reporting Biden is running about 10 points behind Clinton in Miami-Dade with 1,000,000 votes in from that county.

In 2016, CNN was almost all county-level analysis. Fox was almost all talk. MSNBC is somewhere in the middle.

It's going to be hard to fade that Miami-Dade number (M-D is Fla's biggest county by ~883k ppl).

I never previously felt the level of disdain for Wolf Blitzer that I do right now. John King is having to babysit him.

Dont have Fox this time but that's where I would want to watch tump being trounced. It was ok last time until he starting winning.

Cant cope with more than a few minutes of Wolf. Andrew Neil on the BBC is a good for those who have access to it.

This is just anecdotal but the way Florida usually works in its vote reporting is that the Democrat jumps out to the lead and the the Republican tries to come from behind.

Once the Republican catches the Democrat, the Republican rarely loses.

Trump is already ahead with ~50% of the votes counted.

I'm not sure why all the reported 8.7 million early votes aren't in the total.

The Democratic nominee for the West Virginia Senate seat was Paula Jean Swearengin. She lost handily.

She would have won in the Dakotas.
