How we feeling about today?

GA and Penn came through for us 2 years ago. Can they repeat?

In line at my polling place, I usually walk in and out, I also usually have gone at 7 and not right at 5, so I’m sure that makes a difference. The line is currently running outside and someone said 40 minute wait.

Somebody needs to lump Trump up one of these days for mentioning their wife. So out of pocket

For real. You know that stumpy little ***** Ron isn’t gonna do **** tho.

Not great, but holding on to some semblance of optimism.

The race for Governor is tight in NY, but I think NYC will carry Hochul.

I don't have my finger on the pulse of other states as much though, so it'll be interesting to see the results at the very least.

I don't see any of the "alpha males" in the GOP doing anything tbh

Based on the posts I wanted to confirm...is Trump 2024 actually going to be a thing? The thought of him being all up in the videos again for a good 9-12 months

Like before Trump will want to run - he loves that spotlight - but he probably wants to lose so he can just continue to whine about how another election was stolen from him and no-one has ever been treated so badly…

My original thought that I still somewhat maintain is that he did not actually want to win in 2016. Like you said - just wanted the spotlight, lose and try to monetize said spotlight

Ended up being about a 50 minute wait. In the state of Michigan btw. Here’s to 4 more years of Big Gretch, womens rights, government transparency, and voting rights.

Turnout was absolutely INSANE at my polling place in Louisville. NEVER seen it like this, not even in 2020.

I took great pleasure in voting against that curly-headed **** Rand Paul. (Not that it will matter )

Also voted NO on an abortion ban.

I like to keep an eye on live odds of each race. Makes me feel better even though it was wrong in many key races in 2020.

Desantis does better with college educated republicans.

There isn’t a whole lot of those… trump does better with every other republican. He’d destroy desantis.

Seen people with Trump flags on their porch since 2016. You only know it's a different flag when you notice that the year on it has changed.

Imagine being this bad at trolling. Nobody expects Democrats to do well tonight.

You’re trying too hard.

 

[letsgetit22]

Unlike a lot of yall, I am optimistic about tonight. Huge turnout for early voting. No telling how things will go.

I tried to explain to someone the deeply ingrained american belief that the government should not actually work together, but instead fight over everything to come to a compromise that no one likes, to appease what they believe to be the will of the long dead founders but no one knows in actuality.

And it's not one of those weird unspoken things, it's actually taught to children in schools that this is right and proper. The government NOT working is the ideal here and even if people don't like someone's policies, they'll still vote just to see them obstruct the ones they do like.

Oddly enough, I haven't seen too much MAGA anything around here the past 6 - 8 months.

I'm sure we're still f'ed tonight though. Beto ain't it, I'm afraid. I don't know why Texas doesn't get some moderate Hispanic to run. They'd easily lock up half the vote if they're smart. It would at least be some step towards the right direction.

 

[danikerhino]

Big turn out over here in San Francisco. No surprising given the housing issues, School Board issues, and DA issues. Glad I could do my part in hopefully improving things. I have a good feeling about the results favoring what I voted on, especially the measures and props.

Nationally, it's looking contentious.

 

[casper90403]

Aint looking to good for the Queen, Stacey Abrams.
