Thought we could use a new thread for the day of itself - makes it easier if we ever want to go back and re-live the experience.

Is there anyone NOT watching tonight?

I've got an appointment to meet friends at a gym from 8-10 (because of covid you need a reservation). My guess is that by the time I get home and log on at about 1030, Florida will be called and it will be effectively over.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

I don't plan on staying up late.  But I don't expect it to be close.

Yeah, I will be watching and I hope to see the election called before polls close on the West coast.

Usually it is called a few seconds after they close.

True, I accept the friendly amendment.

I was hoping Midtjylland - Ajax could help pass the time but Ajax scores after 48 seconds. It's going to be a disastrous night. :(

I'm not watching. I'm sure I'll hear the result when it's done.

Can't afford to stay up really, too much work tomorrow.

Yes. I can't stay up all night.

Being here in Alaska our polls close at 8 PM local, midnight Eastern time. So I'm hoping by the time I go to bed a hours later, that it'll all be settled. But I won't be surprised if it isn't

That's pro or anti trump? :unsure:

Philadelphia hates Jerry Jones and the Dallas Cowboys.

Think of the biggest rivalry in soccer and multiply by infiniti.  You then get close to the hatred Philadelphia fans have for all things Dallas Cowboys.
