Just remembered the absolute hysterical fever dream that was November 7, 2020.

I sent this tweet as I was rushing to check out of my DC hotel room, where I’d been based during the last days of the campaign.
After extending my stay for as long as was reasonable while the counts went on, I ended up filing the update that the networks had called it for Biden from an armchair in the lobby - as people ran out of the lifts and into the street, literally whooping and hollering.
Five months on, it’s weird to think I was allowed to leave the country.
