That joke has layers and layers...

Planning is an exercise of power, and in a modern state much real power is suffused with boredom. The agents of planning are usually boring; the planning process is boring; the implementation of plans is always boring. In a democracy boredom works for bureaucracies and corporations as smell works for skunk. It keeps danger away. Power does not have to be exercised behind the scenes. It can be open. The audience is asleep. The modern world is forged amidst our inattention.

The Cubans in Florida I can see, but they generally vote Republican anyway. The others though?

Venezuelans and Nicaraguans are pretty Republican in FL too.

Interesting take.

 

Clinton won this county by 7% with 65% turnout in 2016. 

 

 

I'm confused. Do those numbers include absentee and early voting?

Yes, in both instances. The first is saying that if El Paso reaches 70k day of turnout, it would be a good sign for Texas. The second one is that included early and day of voting, that county has exceeded their totals from 2016.

The missing ED county votes are red counties. Panhandle is an hour behind. 

Depends on how Independents break, but I think Trump probably pulls out a close one. 

 

That Republican turnout machine in Florida is +++++ing serious, man. Hell of an organization.

I own a vehicle likely worth more than everything you own combined and just flew first class (including a ticket for a 2 1/2 year old), round trip to Las Vegas and I'm not 35 yet. When you accomplish something outside of finishing a book, let me know. When's the last time you saw a 2 year old fly first class in their own seat? Don't tell me about elite.

I’d have to compare it to last year at this time. But it looks like this isn’t a Biden landslide at least in Florida.

Wait until the afternoon. The lead will expand in Florida. 

The story no one is talking about now but will in the coming days is the ground game for Trump. That is turning out low propensity voters in mass in multiple states. That's where the campaign money went into. Biden didn't have a ground game until the last few weeks. Too late.

Weird thing about this 2020 election - is the reality that some R's will flip to Biden.......and some D's will flip to trump ..........question is how many when number crunching party numbers , then there's the bigger mystery of which way are the NP's breaking?!?! 

In NV the Np's probably decide the election and with NV's "None of these candidates" option, I could see quite a few going that route as they aren't happy with Biden or trump
