Um, he wasn’t asking for recounts, he wanted state actors to make up votes for him, or just give the electors to him over the vote, different concepts.

Pastor Loran Livingston will handle him. It's a few months old but never fails. I posted this again yesterday, silence from my suddenly holy crowd. People I have known for decades who scarcely see the inside of a church except for funerals. "Praying for Trump". 

Pastor Loran Livingston tore the church up with this one.

I swear to fucking god if the margin in this  election comes down to fucking Tony Hitchcliffe making a racist joke at a rally a week before the fucking election...pretty sure I'm still done with this fucking country. 

 

Jokes aside, I'm legit worried for that guy's safety should Trump lose.

Regardless of the outcome tonight, the Republicans still voting for Trump have proven themselves to be complete and total frauds. They have voluntarily abandoned any principles or ethics they once purported to champion.  These people should not be taken seriously in debates and never given the benefit of the doubt again.  They are frauds with no values other than domination.

And that’s your opinion. Some of us are sick of the politics on both sides after the last few years.  Is it worse from the republicans, sure.  But both care more about being the opposite of the other nothing will ever get done in the near future. 

"Sure the Republicans say fascist things and promise to enact fascist policies, but the Democrats call them fascists and so I'm just tired of both sides being so unreasonable."

Kennesaw State is in Cobb County, enrollment 30k

Alexandra Son (right) and Anna Brown (left), both 18-year-old first-time voters from Kennesaw State University, turned out to the polls driven by personal stakes in this election. 

Son, concerned for the future of women’s rights, spoke passionately about wanting a safer and more united America. 

“I have gone through things that in the Supreme Court they overturned, so it was more of a thing of, like, the safety of me, my little sisters, my future daughters,” she said, citing her immigrant family and the importance of humane policies in her voting decisions. 

Reflecting on past elections, Son recalled feeling powerless as a fifth-grader watching the 2016 election unfold.

“I was sitting on the couch, and my parents were, like, screaming… I was like, damn, I wish I was 18 and I could actually vote and do something about it… This election is nerve-wracking, but it’s special because we could have our first woman president and have someone speak for us.”

Brown, also feeling the weight of this election, explained that for her and many in her generation, it’s about preserving women’s rights she’s always known to have. 

Studying environmental science, Brown is particularly concerned about climate change and sees it as an urgent priority. 

“It’s something that needs more attention, and the fact Harris even talks about it means a lot,” she said, expressing hope for leadership that takes climate issues seriously.

Don't know if I buy Osceola County as more blue than Orange, even early in the day.

 

 

Florida will be achieving it's new status as a GOP vote sink from all the midwestern Republicans who moved there during COVID, effectively making the blue wall the bluer wall.

I mean this is where we are, trump in 2020 and 2016 were kinda just shitty guy does shitty things, this time he's straight up gone full on fascist and batshit. It's not even remotely close to his previous campaigns and rhetoric.

A very interesting anecdote from Isaac Saul (who I like a lot and subscribe to his newsletter).
 

Yesterday I interviewed Ken Block, a data guy who the Trump camp hired to investigate voter fraud in 2020 (he couldn't prove any of their claims, and wrote a whole book about the experience called "Disproven")Anyway, Ken stopped me before we ended the podcast and said, "don't… https://t.co/r3FMCiyKJg

Yesterday I interviewed Ken Block, a data guy who the Trump camp hired to investigate voter fraud in 2020 (he couldn't prove any of their claims, and wrote a whole book about the experience called "Disproven") Anyway, Ken stopped me before we ended the podcast and said, "don't you want to hear my prediction?" I was like, oh, yeah, I actually do. He said the following: From 2016 to 2020, Trump lost ground among Republican voters in most of the biggest counties in the battlegrounds. He directed me to pages in his book (which I had at my desk) to look at the charts from places like Georgia. He said: In the last 4 years, he's done nothing to win them back. In fact, he's probably lost *more* of them, as evidenced by the strength Haley had even after she dropped out of the primary. His take was that Trump was going to lose because of these voters and that it might not be close - and any marginal gains with black/hispanic voters wouldn't be enough to offset it. Ken's a pretty level-headed guy, and great with the data, and has been involved in various ways in a lot of political campaigns. I'm not sure what to make of it. But I do think it is an analysis that has been largely absent the last few months, and could prove prescient in the next 24 hours.

I wouldn't say I'm worried about his safety. More like, I'm intellectually curious about his safety. Or lack therof.

Betting odds on most sites are 58-60% for Trump today….  Next election maybe we get back to semi normal middle candidates on both sides. Nah it will be a Ted Cruz and fit lump ticket lol. 

Fitlump is extremely sane compared to Cruz.

Yeah, anyone both sidesing things at this point either isn't paying attention, or is not acting in good faith.

Republicans are losing the E-day vote. It is over for them, Arizona will be blue. It's just a matter of figuring out how much of a majority the Democratic party will have in the state leg and whether Eli Crane loses.

You mean the same folks who took selfies of themselves committing an insurrection on their personal phones? I’m not thinking they’re smart enough to buy a burner.

They’ll buy the burners and then post pictures of themselves on social media.

MSNBC was just at a polling place by Temple University in Philly.  A line around the block that's about an hour and a half.  There were only 10 voting machines.

If the utes at Temple are waiting an hour and a half, this is in the bag.
