Just remember in 2008

Obama wasn’t doing great in the early hours. It wasn’t until later in the evening that he started to pull ahead and was declared the winner by 11. So everyone needs to calm down a bit.

I get the importance of FL but it wasn't looking good for a while, when Miami Dade mail in and early vote numbers were lacking.

But Obama was running against a reasonably sane public servent. Biden is running against a pile of flaming dog shit.

I think the major angst is really coming from one or two counties in one state that hasn't even been called yet.
