Election Day Thread - Nov. 3, 2020

The good thing is that even if Biden wins, him and Harris are gonna do such a shitty job, a more conservative person will have an actual chance of winning in 2024.

You guys mad already lol

Foreign policy doesn’t win elections (kinda the saying) but I think it’s more impactful than moderate policy changes between dem/rep administrations on domestic issues.

You guys mad already lol

I am mad that our system puts 2 clearly incompetent people up and says they are the only choice. Secondarily, I am mad that the Republican and Democratic parties have a stranglehold on the process. I would like to see the debates and voting system wrestled away from the media and the 2 parties.


Never gonna happen though.

Personally I can't wait to sit back for the next 2 years and blame any failures on Trump and put all the credit on Biden for any success especially with the economy. Oh and I can't wait for the Rona to magically go away after the election.

If Biden wins there is about a 50% chance that Harris could be president. Just let that sink in. If Trump wins you can bet that there will be riots.

Why would there be riots?

Because pacifists like me will start passing fists out

Once in a blue moon, you see a poll that makes you blink twice to make sure you’re not seeing things. This morning’s ABC News/The Washington Post survey of Wisconsin was just such a poll. It showed Joe Biden 17 points (not a typo) ahead of President Trump, 57 percent to 40 percent, among likely voters. To put it mildly, this is a stunning margin in what is supposed to be one of the most competitive swing states in the country — a place that Trump carried by less than 1 percentage point in 2016.

RABA Research was out with a poll yesterday showing Biden at 50 percent and Trump at 46 percent in Iowa. Last week, the A+ pollsters Monmouth University and Siena College/The New York Times Upshot found similar margins. Iowa, remember, is a fairly red state that Trump carried by 9 points in 2016. And for the first time, our forecast now gives Biden a better chance than Trump of winning the state, although it’s still basically a coin flip (Biden’s odds are 51 in 100).

Yesterday, Gravis Marketing released a survey of Minnesota in which Biden led Trump by 14 points. Biden’s chances of winning Minnesota have now reached an all-time high of 94 in 100.

On Sunday, we also got a Gravis poll of Michigan that gave Biden a 13-point lead. That’s on top of last week’s Fox News poll of Michigan showing Biden 12 points ahead. And this morning, ABC News/Washington Post also released a Michigan poll giving Biden a smaller 7-point lead. Overall, our forecast gives Biden a 94 in 100 chance of winning the Wolverine State.

Trump just did a rebrand on the entire Republican party.

Mitt Romney was the last straw, Trump rewrote the playbook. It doesn't matter what you say, facts/science/haters be damned, just make sure you say it loud and rile the base up. Never apologize or admit you were wrong ever. Publicly dividing half the country ftw.

Liz Cheney or Kid Rock 2024!

If Biden wins there is about a 50% chance that Harris could be president. Just let that sink in. If Trump wins you can bet that there will be riots.

The leader of the Oath Keepers also said there'd be riots if Biden won. Looking forward to these totally-not-racist militias mobilizing no matter who wins.

Riots either way. Trump wins they'll be out there defending property. Biden wins they'll be out there protesting the Dems cheating the election.
