I am mainly watching the race to 270 for the presidency. The senate or governers etc don't mean much to an outsider.

It is funny how it has been going up in bunches to one side or the other. Big lead, lead getting eaten up.

The only update I've seen it go up by one has only just happened.

Some of the states are close.

Seems like the big cities are counting faster than the rural areas. This generally throws the Dems infront to begin with.
