Biden Is Projected To Be The President-Elect. Here’s How It All Went Down.

We are starting to get the very first results in Indiana. Because they’re very sporadic, though, they don’t tell us much yet.

How could Biden get to 270 without Pennsylvania or Florida? If he were to win North Carolina plus Wisconsin, Michigan and the Clinton states, he’d be there. He could also do it by winning Arizona plus one Electoral College vote from Nebraska. That would be razor-thin, though: 270-268.

Well, it’s longer term than just the election, but I’m going to be watching final in-person voting numbers in the states that are being hardest hit by this third wave of COVID-19. Research suggests that human density at the polls has an impact on the spread of disease, so I’d expect to see an uptick in cases a couple of weeks from now in places that had the most dense voter turnout — especially if you have dense voter turnout and already high rates of COVID-19 spread.
