No Path Left for Trump In Nevada

November 5, 2020 · 1:33 pm ET · Leave a Comment

Jon Ralston notes Joe Biden is up by 11,400 votes in Nevada.

“Democrats are going to win these mail ballots coming in from Election Day and yesterday — 63K. And they should win them decisively. That leaves 60K provisionals, which have been evenly split.”

The bottom line: “I see no path left for Trump here.”

Ben Smith: “So Fox has a very tricky decision to make: Call Nevada and the election, based on that early Arizona call, and escalate war with Trump; or wait for someone else to call based on PA and follow that. (It’s all an artifact of TV’s bizarrely oversized role here ofc.)“
