Election, Day 2 Update:
Time: 6:45 P.M.
Things are CLOSE here. Biden's managed to win Michigan in a surprise victory. At this point, Nevada doesn't matter - he only needed Pennsylvania for a (barely) guaranteed victory, and should he win either that, North Carolina, or Georgia, for all practical purposes, the election's in the bag.
The Senate remains evenly matched, in a display of will I've never seen in my lifetime - both corners are committed to victory, and won't yield a single inch. In the House, the Blue Corner is making headway, leading the Red Corner by over ten Reps. Should the trend continue, we can see anything from a deadlocked Congress (again, something I've never seen in my lifetime), to a slight, but significant Democratic majority. Not the two-thirds majority that guarantees radical control, but a majority nonetheless.
Earlier, when ER compared the election to Midway, forshadowing a "Guadalcanal", I added that after Guadalcanal came Iwo Jima. While a suitable analogue, right now it feels more like Stalingrad.
Not one step back, comrades - in the end, there can only be one.
