The chair of Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign sent out a letter to staff on Tuesday night, assuring them that the current closeness of the race is “exactly what we prepared for.”
In the email, campaign manager Jen O’Malley Dillon said staff have known all along that this is a “razor-thin race.”
“While we continue to see data trickle in from the Sun Belt states, we have known all along that our clearest path to 270 electoral votes lies through the Blue Wall states,” O’Malley Dillon wrote. “And we feel good about what we’re seeing.”
Trump vs. Harris: Where they stand on issues that matter to voters O’Malley Dillon cited how in Pennsylvania, Harris overperformed turnout expectations for Philadelphia, as well as early vote expectations in Bucks County.
“In Michigan, we are awaiting a significant amount of votes to come in,” O’Malley Dillon said. “In Wisconsin, we know there is a significant amount of vote remaining in Dane and Milwaukee counties.”
O’Malley Dillon noted that they’ve been telling campaign staff for weeks that the race might not be called on Election Day.
“Those of you who were around in 2020 know this well: It takes time for all the votes to be counted – and all the votes will be counted. That’s how our system works. What we do know is this race is not going to come into focus until the early morning hours,” O’Malley Dillon wrote. “This is what we’ve been built for, so let’s finish up what we have in front of us tonight, get some sleep, and get ready to close out strong tomorrow.”
Am I wrong to interpret “close out strong” to mean cheat, cheat, cheat and MORE CHEAT??
Of course they’ll cheat to the extreme.
Shades of 2016!
When will she call trump? Will she call Trump?!
2016 or 2020?
All they've got left now are lawsuits to deem Trump an insurrectionist and efforts to "save democracy" with faithless electors.
“Get ready to eat out your own liver tomorrow” is more like it

Razor thin race? Junkie Jezebel is getting stomped, Trump is winning Penn and Georgia. So in other words the DemoMarxists are going to claim cheating because apparently that’s legal for them but not for Trump or Guiliani.
I'm sure that Sherrod Brown and Jon Testes are comforted by your optimism.
Dim bosses calculating how many votes need to manufactured...to be counted throughout the remainder of the week.
I have heard them talk about that all week. I think that means simply that they will continue the FUND RAISING to squeeze the few remaining dollars out of their donars since Ukraine quit paying huge dividends for them.
Huh?
Hopefully Trump gets an absolute pitbull as AG and starts handing out indictments. This country should never have to go thru the kind of BS we went thru the past 3.9 years. Indictments for treason would be a nice way to start things off

Subject: What We’re Seeing So Far
Team,
As polls close across the country, I wanted to give everyone an update on what we’re seeing. As we have known all along, this is a razor thin race. Thanks to this amazing team, we have seen incredible turnout across the Battleground States, and the closeness of the race is exactly what we prepared for.
While we continue to see data trickle in from the Sun Belt states, we have known all along that our clearest path to 270 electoral votes lies through the Blue Wall states. And we feel good about what we’re seeing.
• In Pennsylvania, we overperformed turnout expectations in Philadelphia, and overperformed in our early vote expectations in Bucks County. We don’t have Election Day results from Philadelphia, but we do know that we overperformed turnout expectations there, and have seen especially high turnout in places with large non-white and student populations. We expect to see higher turnout in Philadelphia than in 2020. Outside of Philadelphia, we have limited data on turnout and support right now, but what we do have is tracking with our expectations. We are awaiting more results (like everyone else!), and hope to get a closer read in the coming hours.
• In Michigan, we are awaiting a significant amount of votes to come in. The City of Detroit won’t be reported out until roughly midnight, but we have seen strong turnout throughout early vote and Election Day there. Other results in Michigan are harder to parse, since results are coming in more piece-meal than elsewhere.
• In Wisconsin, we know there is a significant amount of vote remaining in Dane and Milwaukee counties, and we are seeing signs of strong performance in the WOW counties, where we have partial data. We don’t expect complete results from Wisconsin until tomorrow morning between 3 am-5 am.
Polls just closed in Nevada and Arizona so, as expected, it will be a while before we have more information from both states.
We’ve been saying for weeks that this race might not be called tonight. Those of you who were around in 2020 know this well: It takes time for all the votes to be counted - and all the votes will be counted. That’s how our system works. What we do know is this race is not going to come into focus until the early morning hours.
We’ll continue to keep you all updated as we get more information. This is what we’ve been built for, so let’s finish up what we have in front of us tonight, get some sleep, and get ready to close out strong tomorrow.
