This thread is for the Presidential election, my plan is to start marking wins as soon as they are called, sorted by time zone.
Some states are going to take longer than others. Polls generally close at 8 PM local time, but they can't start counting early/mail in votes until after the polls close.
Wisconsin in particular has an interesting system where ballots are collected by MUNICIPALITY, not precinct, they have over 1,800 ballot counting locations and don't report until ALL 1,800 are in.

I have young kids.. My wife always asks me if bringing them into this world was a mistake. I was always the optimist telling her I didn't think it so. Now I don't know what to feel. What are they going to do... Ugh. This is a waking nightmare. I'm scared.
I have a one year old. I'm terrified at how things are going to look in 4 years.
I have five between 20 and 33. I weep for them. All of us.
The choice was a future for them or a now for the elite. The Me Last
generationpeople seemsto have won - and even if not, showed that we are lost anyway without a paradigm shift.10, 3 and 1 here...
Yeah, I decided many years ago not to have kids precisely for this reason.
The best you can do now is to raise them to be better than this.
My kid grew up in the first Trump bullet that we managed to barely dodge.
We planned at that time start to look at colleges outside of the US and my kids is actually interested now.
Guess my family might end up being another first generation immigrant yet again but that won't be a bad thing.
This next 2 years was my last chance to have kids. I kept waiting. I don't think I can do this anymore. I wanted to be a good parent but what kind of parent knowledge brings a child into this? I feel so lost.
Can you afford to adopt? There are plenty of kids who are already here, might as well take them in and improve their lives if you can.
Thr thought has crossed my mind. My partner hates children and just wants a quiet peaceful life just the 2 of us. Took decade to convince that this isn't a terrible idea and now I can no longer fight against it. It's over. Even if Trump doesn't do anything crazy, I know he won't make things better and we are out of time to wait for a better outcome. Nature is uncaring.
I'm sorry to say, friend, that climate change itself made it a mistake. This is just icing on the cake.
Raise your kids to be loving, respectful people, that's the only chance we have for a better future. If we leave the future generations to be raised by people full of hate we're doomed.
