      When the New York votes are finally counted -- who knows when? -- Biden's popular vote margin is going to be massive. (Also true nationally).https://twitter.com/jbarro/status/1325487046237048839 …

      Another factor that makes me think all the analyses of New York results, which exclude heavily Democratic mail ballots that our crack election administrators will take approximately forever to count, are painting an unrepresentative picture of what happened here. https://twitter.com/DKThomp/status/1325482213232824329 …

      I don't think enough people understand that votes are being counted all over America and not just the swing states. As with Clinton in 2016, Biden's popular vote lead is likely to grow much larger. Doesn't matter for the outcome but suggests size of rejection of Trump.

          There's a disconnect between the tempo of people's attention (increasingly shorter because of social media) and the tempo of American vote counting (increasingly long because system is fucked up). This created misunderstanding in 2016 and 2018 -- also now.

          I've literally seen conservatives attack GA and AZ by saying CA has already counted all their ballots. LMAO

          When his opponent gets more votes then yes.

          @HeerJeet With all the attention on the “slow” vote counting in swing states, few paying attention to just how long it takes in some heavily blue states. Seems like a thing to address.

          Just checked and California has over 3.5 million ballots outstanding and Biden is winning them 2-1. There are more ballots outstanding just in LA county than there are people in Wyoming.
