3. Congratulations to Pennsylvania Democrats!

We KNEW we had the votes.

The votes were always there, it just took so friggin' long to count them!

4. A huge Thank You to all the PA Dems in red, redder and reddest

places for coming out to vote and making a difference in the state even if your (our) vote made no difference in the outcome in your (our) particular county, district, township, city, precinct, etc.

Yes, the votes in Philadelphia, its environs, and Allegheny counties made the final difference. But, they wouldn't have been in a position to put Biden/Harris over the top without your votes.

5. I wish I could be at City Hall celebrating with them.

Philly has spirit!

6. I'm so proud of PA!

And the irony that it was Philly that put Biden over after all the nasty remarks trump made about Philly. I think Jill is from Philly which is very sweet!

8. Highest election turnout in Philly since 1984 & first time surpassing 600K for a candidate since LBJ

I watched their 24/7 stream until they cut the feed around 11:15 am yesterday (11/17/20), as they did one last big push - and apparently now I know why. They are pretty much done (needs to be completed/certified statewide by 11/23/20).
