Aaaand this thread is about fucking pizza now 

If haters want to talk about how it's actually lasagna or whatever they can go ahead, but my take is that Chicago deep dish is good as hell, actually

So does Biden have to go to Saudi Arabia right away to do that weird orb ritual or nah

Over 12,000 new cases in Illinois today, Jesus

Would still be nice to get Arizona 100% confirmed, but I'm definitely glad I no longer have to read every post that's like "Latest batch from Yuma county goes 58% for Trump" and try and figure out what that means

The centrist, half-measure policies will drive me insane again in time, but it's just gonna be so, so, nice to have a president who acts vaguely human again.

White Sox organist. They always play this when the opposing starter gets pulled.

oh my god

Hopefully what they can do before the 20th is get a sense of whether we're actually on track to get a vaccine distributed quickly after it's approved, or whether it was gonna get Kushner'd like the PPE stockpiles in the spring

Huh, I had no idea

I’ve watched nothing but Fox News the past few days.

 

Mail-in voting. They are going to stage an all out assault on mail in voting. They see that as *the* reason Biden has won.

It seems like there was a pattern of later-arriving ballots skewing more GOP, in places where you could tell such things. Democrats got the message that the post office was FUBAR and got their ballots in early. Hopefully it's a sign that they're able to get the right messaging out and can overcome whatever hoops red state legislatures are gonna make people jump through.

ffs, can we wait a day for this

one last super-spreader event for the road

Yeah, there's something really weird going on with the decisions not to call it at this point. I've never seen an on-air guy be so certain of the outcome without the network actually calling the outcome. I don't get it.

welp

Illinois' Fair Tax Amendment unfortunately failed.

Yep, and Pritzker announced the day afterward that the only way forward now is crushing austerity.

I'd let go of the rest of my pent up nervousness after Decision Desk called it this morning, assuming every network would call it quickly thereafter. Now I'm nervous that the longer they go on not calling the race the more likely it is that somebody does something stupid at once of these ballot facility protests.

Incredible

Every data guy I've been following--Silver, Nate Cohn, Dave Wasserman--is basically trying to say as nicely as possible now that they don't understand why everyone hasn't called it for Biden at this point.

Military Times had a poll a few months ago, and Trump didn't do well.  It wasn't a scientific poll though, so it's not representative of the overall military population.

i seem to remember an exit poll that was like 54-46 Trump, something like that. It seems like the exit polls were all FUBAR though
