November 4, 20241 yr 1 hour ago, JohnSnowsHair said: oh come on, how about we see the full conversation rather than cutting it off? This clip out of context lacks credibility if it's trying to contend Ann Selzer, from whom there are hours of video online discussing in great detail political and polling matters, is specifically asking "what D and R" mean without context. get a grip dude. you fall for ish way too easily. stop leaning in to things that confirm your biases. think critically and ask questions. Remember when you asked for the full clip on Friday about Liz? Just saying. But when her poll is out there so much I'm not taking the time to watch a full interview. She should be able to speak with certainty about everything forward and backwards so to speak. But everyone in here has a bias in an election with such sharp contrasts.
November 4, 20241 yr 2 hours ago, Toastrel said: Trump's final, half empty, sad, low energy rally. This sad clown is going down, and then the real cheating starts. My guess is there will be 12 attempts to overthrow the election. More fake electors. What won't happen, is an armed mob of feebs attacking capitol to try and block certification. Lol you people show pics before they start and go oh look it's empty. Oh look empty seats in the boxes they don't have open. Also, his final rally doesn't start until tonight.
November 4, 20241 yr Article on election night mirages https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-election/red-blue-mirage-election-night-vote-counts-make-hard-tell-will-win-rcna175475 Pennsylvania: We expect the earliest-reported votes to be dominated by mail ballots, including from heavily Democratic Philadelphia and Allegheny counties, causing an early blue mirage. Then, as in-person Election Day votes are reported, the blue mirage will turn into a red one, with the results tipping more Republican than we expect to see in the final margin. Finally those large counties (particularly Philadelphia) will continue to count and report their remaining mail ballots. This will likely shift the race back in Democrats’ direction. In 2020, the Pennsylvania results at 3 a.m. ET on election night were about 7 percentage points more Republican than the final result. In the 2022 Senate election, the 3 a.m. red mirage was just over 1 percentage point from the final margin Michigan: We expect a slight red mirage in Michigan as smaller, more pro-Republican localities report their votes. The total vote count will likely trickle upward as small places report, and the size of the mirage will shrink when large, Democratic cities like Detroit, Grand Rapids and Ann Arbor report. This year, Michigan voters can vote early in person for the first time in a general election, and clerks are now permitted to preprocess their mail ballots, enabling faster counting. Both of these changes may cause differences in vote reporting patterns compared to what we have seen in previous elections Wisconsin: In most Wisconsin municipalities, all modes of vote are reported together. This produces a slight red mirage, because smaller, rural municipalities tend to report more quickly. A handful of large municipalities, including the city of Milwaukee, tabulate their mail ballots centrally and report them separately from their Election Day votes. The state will experience a red mirage until the heavily Democratic mail ballots from most heavily Democratic cities in the state are reported. At 4:42 a.m. ET on election night 2020, Milwaukee reported that Biden had received 85% of its 168,000 mail ballots. This caused Biden’s statewide total to increase from 47.3% to 49.3%

November 4, 20241 yr From the NYT: You already know Donald Trump. He is unfit to lead. Watch him. Listen to those who know him best. He tried to subvert an election and remains a threat to democracy. He helped overturn Roe, with terrible consequences. Mr. Trump’s corruption and lawlessness go beyond elections: It’s his whole ethos. He lies without limit. If he’s re-elected, the G.O.P. won’t restrain him. Mr. Trump will use the government to go after opponents. He will pursue a cruel policy of mass deportations. He will wreak havoc on the poor, the middle class and employers. Another Trump term will damage the climate, shatter alliances and strengthen autocrats. Americans should demand better. Vote.

November 4, 20241 yr Just now, WentzFan11 said: I hope it won’t be close. America can’t be that stupid. Lol they absolutely can. I think she's gonna win, but there are more than enough morons out there to make it close.
November 4, 20241 yr Absolutely crazy to think he could win. Have a feeling my county which is usually blue is going to end up red, Bucks will go red, and there goes the state. Ugh. For my own mental health, I will not freak out. I'll just hope whatever he does won't affect my way of living. But it likely will cost me more money to live -money that I don't have. Let's just hope I won't have to worry, and the other 1/2 of the country votes sane.
November 4, 20241 yr It looks like women will be putting Harris over the top in this election - possibly by a lot more than people realise. I saw it coming, though because most of them are in this thread.
