I just learned a new word from that tweet: tranche! I’ll spell it to myself one million times tonight while I stare at the ceiling and pray that my soul will be taken.

Tuscon going to save our bacon here in AZ?
Philly county still at only 70% too. Things our looking up for our plucky challenger.
Seriously. It may not be until sometime tomorrow afternoon, but Biden appears to be in very good, almost “I’ve seen enough” shape to win Pennsylvania. And that will be that, as they say.
And…I think Biden holds on to win Arizona.
I learned that word after watching a lot of documentaries about the 2008 financial crash. That’s what the investment banks called their bundled mortgages (that eventually nearly brought down the entire world’s economy. Simpler times, then.)

If you like tranches you should watch The Big Short. Tranches everywhere!
Same. I learned it from Too Big To Fail and The Big Short.
Any chance anyone (AP and FOX in particular) call PA before they finish counting?
Margin Call is full of tranches too.
Do we have any news on GA?
We need one of these eastern states to finish and make AZ irrelevant.
It’s tough because their “call” rules usually specify some kind of expected denominator…and they don’t have that, even though it looks pretty obvious about how it’s going to go.

Only PA makes the others irrelevant. Biden needs PA, or else he needs 2 of the others.
Expecting to be done counting around midnight (EST).
Nada. Georgia has said they’ve got 122,000 ballots left to count, and they’ll count deep into the night until they’re done, past midnight.
