2024 Election SpongeBob Edition

1gd1onf

Title: 2024 Election SpongeBob Edition Body: Top Comments: This post will definitely be used by Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert on their awesome relevant TV shows. I feel like Squidward should be in "No, why would I vote" wait till this gets took down, its interesting, but political I will never look at Stephen Colbert the same way after Skibidi Biden, not that I was a fan in the first place tbh Sandy is a scientist that’s employed through university research grants. She’d definitely vote for Harris. I somehow doubt Sandy would vote for Harris. She's a country girl Texan through and through. She'd probably vote for the Libertarian party. Squidward would totally not attend work to vote. Fair enough but I feel if she had to pick she might lean more towards Harris, since she seems to value science a lot and other important issues It’s just for fun Wasn’t that made specifically to make fun of Biden’s out-of-touch marketing team? Plenty if you consider the total number but statistics and election day to show that most scientists vote Democrat. Yeah could be Fair but this one is actually fun and not really controversial Then ignore the political posts https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36254166/#:~:text=To%20learn%20more%20about%20scientists,to%20Republicans%20in%20recent%20years. Only about 6% of scientists in the United States are members of the Republican Party. 55% of members of the Democrats. And scientists is a job title so it's probably people who have that job title Mr. Krabs wouldn't vote or let his employees go vote because that'd mean losing money And then not vote either -eheh heh heh hehhh This is for fun and ya’ll treat this like it’s a big deal That's just not even true and also professors aren't scientists? Who the hell do you think is doing the research at universities? What was Albert Einstein's actual occupation? He was a university lecturer. Robert Oppenheimer was a university lecturer. Isaac Newton was in university lecturer. Most of the great scientific minds of the past 300 years have been University professors. Yes there are plenty of Darwin's and Gregor Mendel's who were not University professors but they're the exception to the rule. Professorships are literally won and lost, based on Research. It's comments like that to show you have no idea what you're talking about. Seriously imagine thinking grad students and University professors aren't core fundamental elements to the American Scientific industrial complex. And that they're not scientists Also the paper literally says that scientists are overwhelmingly Democratic supporters so I don't even know what you're lying about Fuck off then

Presidential predictor Allan Lichtman stands by call that Harris will win 2024 election

Title: Presidential predictor Allan Lichtman stands by call that Harris will win 2024 election Body: Top Comments: I’ll say it until I’m blue in the face: Legalized political gambling ruined the reliability of polling. You can trade future odds now, which means every outlier is a payday for somebody. The final ruling legalizing political markets just happened this month. EDIT: I’m not saying this is election interference. I’m saying these markets created a grift that turns hot takes and outliers into paydays. My belief is that Trump has done very little to pick up votes since last election, except for some extreme Christian ideas. He has not opened his tent much, if not lost a good chunk of old school Republicans. Every week Trump calls a new part of America a trash place. He has vile rhetoric towards immigrants, in a country full of immigrants and children of immigrants that are eligible to vote. Meanwhile Harris has pulled in endorsement from dozens of high profile candidates, has had a very optimistic campaign slogan (We Vote, We Win or A New Way Forward), and has been centrist enough to pull in a lot of independents and undecideds. All logic says Harris will win. But the big IF is IF the country isn’t as vile as Trump’s rhetoric. If we are a society dominated by hatred, Trump will win. i got even my nuts crossed. I cant believe how I forgot about this with the people saying the betting markets keep favoring Trump. The only idiots that are gonna bet money on an election are people that Trump caters too. You know what moves the odds in betting markets? EVERYONE BETTING ONE SIDE. It's why Spreads on Monday before a NFL Sunday move 1-2 points by game time. I seriously think the media is trying to make it sound closer than it is so they still get their views and clicks. It can’t be close. It just can’t. To be clear, VOTE. I voted the very first day early voting was available in my state. But I still don’t think it’s close. It’s close. Your vote matters more than it ever has. We could all use a reminder of some of the things Trump has done: 1. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Lost the election and lied about it. 2. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sent an armed angry mob to Congress and told them they need to fight like hell. 3. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Approved of the mob saying “hang Mike Pence”. 4. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠A court of law found that he committed sexual assault. 5. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠A court of law found that he defrauding his university students. 6. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠A court of law found that he fraudulently inflated his assets to get favorable loans. 7. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Admitted to walking in on pageant contestants’ dressing rooms to see them nude. 8. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Raped and beat Ivana Trump. 9. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Stole from a kids’ cancer charity. 10. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Received $413 million inheritance despite claims that he’s a self made man. 11. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Blocked his chronically ill infant nephew from getting any of that inheritance. 12. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Is the first president to receive votes against him from his own party during impeachment. 13. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Led us into being one of the worst hit during Covid despite our head start and resources, leading to high inflation. 14. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Said the Democrats do better with the economy. 15. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Was ranked as the worst president in history by bipartisan presidential historians. 16. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Pushed a plot to have fake votes created and then used to make him President despite losing the election. 17. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Ordered republicans to block a bipartisan immigration bill so Biden would not get a win before the election. 18. ⁠⁠Implemented a policy to separate kids from their parents at the border. 19. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Is a convicted felon guilty of falsifying records to influence an election. 20. ⁠⁠⁠Told the Department of Justice to “just say the election was corrupt and leave the rest to me and the Republican congressmen.” 21. ⁠⁠⁠His VP, Mike Pence said Trump should never be president again, and that Trump asked him to put himself “above the Constitution”.

With a race this tight, we must also acknowledge many of the people who refused covid vaccinations and died as a result since November 2020 were the most rabid republicans/conservatives. So he was actually correct, because Gore did win in 2000, but SCOTUS stole it from him and gave it to Bush. Gore got more votes in Florida but they stopped the count. So when they try the same thing this year don't be shocked. To be clear though, the biggest market a lot of GOP are paying attention to is Polymarket, which people in the United States are not able to use. So they're taking skewed information from foreigners wasting a lot of money. He's one of the most accurate election data interpreters around. And interestingly, none of that data is from polls. Instead, he has a whole system that estimates the impact of different types of events and even types of candidates. His process seems pretty subjective, but he gets results either way. Important thing to note, I’m pretty sure the only one he failed to call is 2000, but even then he called Gore winning the popular vote Exactly. What Biden voter in 2020 is going to flip to Trump in 2024? There was a higher risk of not voting if Biden stayed in the race but Harris has lit a fire under the democrats to donate and vote! Look at all the state level elections in swing states. Polls show Democrats are leading. I’ve read up a little bit on how he pulls the data and uses key factor def interesting. The only one he’s gotten wrong was bush v gore which many would argue he got it right. Polymarket makes it worse. They unlike other books have no limit on how much you can bet. So someone if they wanted to (and they did) could spend millions on betting for Trump and that will move the line on all books. This is the best tl;dr I could make, [original](https://www.fox5dc.com/news/presidential-predictor-allan-lichtman-stands-call-harris-will-win-2024-election.amp) reduced by 81%.

The SC got it wrong. Objectively. People who think the president controls egg prices or hate immigrants IMO there are three major issues with using gambling as a meaningful indicator of what is happening with this election cycle. I write this as someone that gambles on football but not politics. -Gambling is predominantly done by men. Men are also the group more likely to vote for Trump. Gambling on politics is mostly a reactive gut feeling instead of rational. So it stands to reason you have more male Trump voters thinking that they know better than polling or other bettors that are putting their money into gambling. Additionally, on the fence bettors often jump in when odds are shifting a lot. -Book makers have no side in this. They are strictly trying to balance payouts on either side and pocket the money in the middle. The book I use currently has the MNF as Giants +6 at -110 and the Steelers as -6 at -110. The -110 means for a $110 bet you win $100. Therefore the odds makers want to have equal potential payouts do they can keep the 10% in the middle. Their role is facilitator and not taking a side. Taking a side opens you up to risk. While poly markets are taking less vig than a typical book they are still bound by the fundamental rules of normal book makers. -Lastly, there have been very large money bets on Trump that caused the market to shift. From articles I’ve read one unknown bettor has placed at least 7.5M in bets on Trump and potentially up to 20M. Elon Musk will spend that 7.5M in a week giving money away in his lottery scheme. Why wouldn’t he or someone like him spend the same amount to vastly move the betting market (as I’ve laid out above) and then have articles written about how Trump is destroying in betting markets? We assume that all bettors are making a rational bet they hope to win, but what if someone was spending money in betting markets with the intention of that being an advertising spend? Assuming Harris wins... And it will be by a sliver, it would be interesting to see how many Republican/Trump voters died from covid after vaccines were available in Penn, Wis, Michigan etc and see if it was more than her margin. Cross em one more time for extra luck

Selena Gomez has cast her vote for the 2024 election before attending the ‘Wizards Beyond Waverly Place’ premiere.

Title: Selena Gomez has cast her vote for the 2024 election before attending the ‘Wizards Beyond Waverly Place’ premiere. Body: Top Comments: Man that is a STUNNING dress. Kind of wish she’d saved it for the globes or something. Are American ballot boxes just chilling unguarded like trash cans? I literally just got off the phone with mom five mins ago who told me someone lit some on fire in Oregon and I was like how could that even happen? Now I know. I always like having something to do/a little treat after voting as well. My things are usually a bit more lowkey, though 😞 I want to look that hot when I vote Washington AND Oregon, as of half an hour ago :| Right?? That dress is perfect for awards season That’s so crazy to me. Even pre poll in my country is done in a building with multiple officials around to help and to make sure people put the right ballots in the right box. The way I’m doing another 180 on her in the best way 👏🏾👏🏾 I mean the rest of our nation is, why NOT the ballot boxes too? 🚮 WEAR RED. VOTE BLUE. Stunning dress-- can't wait to see the pics on the fashion subs!!! And Arizona a few days ago. Agreed! We vote at the library and after I voted I checked out a stack of books and then got a fancy coffee But you guys have security theatre coming out of the yingyang. Metal detectors at concerts. Metal detectors at schools! I can’t go to so much as a baseball game in the US without having to buy a special very specifically-sized see-through bag. How the hell is this the thing you decide doesn’t need protection?   Kinda depends but yeah some of the drop boxes are like this. Where I live the only one I know of is in the city near the board of elections so not really guarded but also in a fairly trafficked area. Prior to recent elections though I don't think the concept of dropping off your mail in ballot was politicized so nobody was going after them really. Nobody is stopping you, I just ordered a classy outfit to wear to my next dropoff! I may not be Selena, but dammit, I'm beautiful! No, she’s wearing it for the Wizards Beyond Waverly Place premiere It’s right in the title In Australia, we have a thing called a democracy sausage at some of our polling places. So basically a BBQ and you can buy a sausage in bread after voting It is a sequel/spin-off series, it revolves around Justin's family and his new protege. Alex Russo in this series just a recurring character. There's a Wizard sequel movie? I wonder if anyone else remembers the *intense* Justin/Alex shipping that went on during that show's run.

2024 elections if Destiny had released his J6 video

1gfe5dp

Title: 2024 elections if Destiny had released his J6 video Body: Top Comments: This is honestly a pretty big fuck up. I’m disappointed. Destiny needs a better manager, that video was important. Is it not coming He said on stream today (yesterday now) that he thinks the only way it’s get out before Election Day is if they cut out a lot of important stuff. He’s considering making it a two part video to get some of it out before then, but obviously I assume most of us just want the one singular video as an easy citation to use. It's fucking embarrassing. Destiny is a media professional, understands how long turn-around takes, and still didn't get this done. *Perfect* being the enemy of *good enough*. People don't know about the elector scheme. That's all it had to cover. EDIT: I got permabanned for this. Yep, it was one of his most important projects, nobody fucking cares about the video after the election, it's too late. Edit: my first ban, based Too bad he’s too fucking busy with Python coding He needs to put out one that says what happened in a succinct even surface level manner, stating just the facts and preferably the most egregious ones. Get a good narrator and some cute simple infographics. Cite all sources in the description. Then he needs to put out a part 2 that goes further in depth, like way further in depth and gets into all of the meat cites all the details etc. That way the regards can just watch the simple one with the pretty infographic, and anyone that wants to know facts can find the sources and cross check and then watch the second video when It drops. I also think having the script or text document with his massive timeline accessible would be a good idea. (Effectively a way to dumb down all the citations and make the entire story more digesable) I also agree with turkey tom 🦃 and think at least the first video needs to be completely divorced from destiny and his brand as so many people have destiny derangement syndrome. I’m sure he’ll get it right by the next presidential election for that coup video, come on. It was a one time, big opportunity, and it’s disappointing that he missed it. Flip it red and this would be the outcome if women didn't vote. https://preview.redd.it/gfkpqwf27vxd1.png?width=1169&format=png&auto=webp&s=642d5b003eaae0fffc50db2f583a803d782cd014 You don't understand. It's not like he had 4 years to do this, and also wasted hours upon hours doing useless dailies. Edit: Based perma ban for light criticism Bro, I actually feel bad for him. So many hours of research, so many debates, so many resources pumped into this thing, so much time... And it won't be out for the MOST IMPORTANT EVENT ? Sad that things turned out this way. Sad that he even needed to do this much research to understand/digest everything in an easy enough manner for the layman who won't be able to watch it on time to be convinced who to vote. It is unprofessional. He looks regarded, the election is less than a week away and all i’ve seen from him is Hasan stuff. Cringe edit: Perma’d omegalul I like where your head's at but sadly I don't expect that much production value out of Destiny... I mean cmon this really shoulda been pulled together before the election with how long hes been working on it Edit: r/destiny has permabanned me for some constructive criticism i guess if complain: ban() print("WORTH") When you see what an obvious shitshow the podcast studio continues to be after god knows how many episodes, this isn’t at all surprising. EDIT: also appear to be perma banned for this! He wasted so many hours doing the dailies. Rip video! The clip crew were equally saddened by the news. And remain ready to help behind the scenes however we can. Destiny still did a lot of good work going over J6 and that still had a large effect on this election. I hope I can have the honor of calling in tomorrow sometime and share heavy opposition rescearch on Trump that dwarfs most things out there. As well as touching on the powerful narratives he's woven to appear as the "President of peace" etc I almost died in a cult and my work was designed specifically for his dire supporters. Hold your heads up, lads, and do whatever you can in these final days. Regardless of the results of this election, we will press on. Urah u/neodestiny With all due respect you have too much faith in streamers/youtubers. The fact that Destiny is organized and disciplined enough to due research and regularly go around and debate/discuss with people is already impressive and extreme outlier. With no disrespect to anyone people in this job aren't used to deadlines and time management and many are incredibly lazy. Look at Vaush he used to go out more but lately he just sits at home, does zero research, and just goes on rants about topics he barely understands and fights with his chat. Realistically it should have been ready two weeks ago. Especially because with projects like these Destiny would need to watch it and probably make some tweaks and send it back to be refined one way or the other. We also have not seen or heard anything about the Israel trip documentary. With channels that often make high level documentary styled content regularly Abroad in Japan, BEFRS, and even Johnny Harris they have dedicated teams who know what to do, slowly built up over time, and don't expect things to work with such little leeway. This is the first time he's tackled something in this format, so it's perfectly understandable for the time frame to be misjudged. Chill.

In the 2024 Election, the Green Party Is Not the Green Choice

1gflwc2

Title: In the 2024 Election, the Green Party Is Not the Green Choice Body: Top Comments: Green Party is the biggest disappointment of the decade. More than a decade; some of us haven't forgotten the Ralph Nader debacle in 2000. Imagine what we could have accomplished with Al freakin Gore, aka Mr. Inconvenient Truth, leading the country in 2001-2004--and especially without the quagmire in Iraq. We'd be in a much stronger position now. 97000 votes for Nader in Florida, and only a 537-vote margin between Bush and Gore. A vote for Green Party is a vote for trump, who has a plan for environmental destruction In Arizona we have an extremely pivotal race that’s going to determine whether we hit net zero or don’t. Our public utility board is elected, the majority of the board are up for reelection in 2024 (3/5 members). It currently has a republican majority (4/5) who voted to gut energy efficiency rules, eliminate our renewable energy standard, and raise prices for consumers on rooftop solar.  We have three candidates, if elected, who would reverse the trend, foster more renewable energy, phase out coal, and give ratepayers relief from rate increases. They have been campaigning hard, building connections across communities in our state, and stand a reasonable chance of getting elected. We need all three elected. If we just get one or two, there will be no climate change mitigation for Arizona.  And then we have the greens…  The Green Party, despite having a race with three open seats, fielded two candidates. Their campaigns have been absolutely non-serious. They have not had campaign events, they did not provide candidate statements through Arizona Clean Elections mailers, they did not provide cover photos, they did not set up a website. What they did do is set up a Facebook page one month before the election. The content mentions climate change as an important issue, then talks about Gaza and Israel’s occupation of Palestine, issues that resonate with progressives, but have nothing to do with public utility regulation.  My fear is that all the get out the vote efforts will lead to more green votes, causing republicans to get the plurality and win the election. People will see a Facebook post with nice statements, and vote for a choice designed to redirect them from supporting serious candidates who will make meaningful contributions if elected.  Do not vote green. No politician ever acted the way you wanted because you made a protest vote. A vote for green is a vote for big oil, fracking, and indefinite coal use. They are an absolute mess, run completely non-serious campaigns designed to tip elections in favor of fossil fuel candidates, and a complete disaster for climate.  Bush stole the election and more Democrat voters flopped to Republicans than Nader voters existed, the lengths y’all go to direct anger AWAY from the powerful is astonishing! Complete historical revisionism. They never really finished counting Florida, but if they had then Gore likely would have won anyway. You don't understand how US elections work... It is either Harris or Trump. I think it is a bad system, but whining about it doesn't change the fact. Everyone should ask themselves this question during Election Month: "What does the US Green Party do the other 11 Months of the year". The answer, as you state so eloquently: Not a damn thing. Jill Stein is literally receiving support from Republicans PACs and the Kremlin. Unreal. No, Bush lost Florida they just refused to accept the recount It's not the green choice because that's not one of the options on the table.  Biden/Harris and the Democratic congress of 2021-2022 got the IRA done--the biggest ever investment into clean energy and energy efficiency! As VP, Kamala Harris cast the deciding vote to pass it. And as a result, the country has vastly stepped up its progress in abandoning fossil fuels. Trump has vowed to kill the IRA, the core of America's climate-change agenda. If he can't kill it, he'll use the power of the presidency to undermine it. And if his first term is any guide, he will sabotage plenty of other environmental protections, and do everything he can to promote fossil fuels. The only way these environmental protections stay in place is if Kamala Harris is elected. Staying home or voting for any other candidate is effectively a vote for a hotter planet. > Tell that to the 300,000 Democrats and 190,000 "self-identified Liberals" who voted for Bush. They didn't pretend to care for the climate. > Bush stole the election and more Democrat voters flopped to Republicans than Nader voters existed, Bush won Florida by 530 votes, while Ralph Nader got 97,500 votes in Florida.  But please, accuse us of historical revisionism.  Jill Stein is a Russian asset. That's a very USA centric take. Please add that to the title. There are many green parties all over the world They don't even show up outside of the presidential elections, have no idea what they're doing the other three years besides collecting checks from Russia. Yeah, the Supreme Court was. In all likelihood Gore won the vote. > Gore lost, because he wasn’t as popular. He was more popular. He literally won the popular vote. It’s been Green as in the slang term for money (Greenbacks) for quite some time now.

Susan B. Anthony, Rochester, N.Y., October 30, 2024. Don't worry, both her and her sister Mary S. Anthony's stone one over are encased in plexiglass during elections for this reason.

1gg8u4v

Title: Susan B. Anthony, Rochester, N.Y., October 30, 2024. Don't worry, both her and her sister Mary S. Anthony's stone one over are encased in plexiglass during elections for this reason. Body: Top Comments: For those outside the US or otherwise unaware, Susan B. Anthony and her sister Mary S. Anthony were foundational in the fight for womens' rights in the US, most notably in voting rights and the establishment of the 19th Amendment to the Constitution: "The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex. Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation." Edit to include a quick [local news story](https://youtu.be/KuCr31DvrIo?si=xDBNHxuxnEXfQ4e5). She also leaned hard into her racism in order to garnish so much support. She’s my aunt, and I put her on a pedestal for a long time before I learned exactly how many women she was willing to throw under the bus. Her house is also an early voting location for our county. I’m so proud of our place in history. Don’t get me wrong, we have some serious problems in our past but Rochester has contributed some serious good as well. Thanks for the info. This is a beautiful post. I love this cemetery. I went to RIT and my boyfriend (now my husband of 28 years) and I used to take my cat for walks here. We are very far away now or I would bring my sticker to Susan. >As the movement progressed, others spoke loudly, including Susan B. Anthony, who stated, “I will cut off this right arm of mine before I will ever work or demand the ballot for the Negro and not the woman.” https://www.wesleyan.edu/mlk/posters/suffrage.html Susan Be Aunt, honey. This was in response to male abolitionists who said that she should stop advocating for women's rights and focus on suffrage for Black men. She did not listen and continued to advocate for a constitutional amendment to guarantee both. Using this quote to say she opposed Black voting rights is misleading. A great tradition. It was only a few years ago when the cemetery had to keep asking visitors to not put their voting stickers directly on the grave 😬. I'm super glad that there was a quick compromise between the cemetery and public! You're very welcome, I'm glad you appreciated it! My mom did not consider herself a racist, I did consider her a bit racist. I did not consider myself racist, my kids thought I was. Bit of a dejavú moment. Anyways it’s important to try to always evolve, and change for better. Always give respect if you expect respect. But yeah internet always wants everything black and white, there is a lot of gray. That is spectacular! Cat walks in a cemetery? She’s a witch! Yes. Four greats by marriage. John Brown would not have shot Susan B. Anthony lol Her brother fought against slavery supporters with Brown in Kansas. Her family were all abolitionists which is how she became friends with Frederick Douglass, and how she became an organizer with the American Anti-Slavery Society, William Lloyd Garrison's radical abolitionist group. She worked with Harriet Tubman on the Underground Railroad and raised funds for John Brown's family after his execution. And she openly advocated full racial integration at a time when many northern Americans opposed emancipation, let alone social equality. John Brown waged war against slavery and its defenders. Whatever racist views Anthony held, Brown probably shared them because they were white abolitionists from similar backgrounds who moved in the same circles. Holding up John Brown as the perfect white antiracist is not a useful way to look at US history in that era. Unless you were a Black woman.. And they are one of the reasons why I was so excited to turn 18 many years ago--because I could vote! I vote for them and other folks that fought for the right for women to vote, I vote for all minorities who couldn't, and I vote to be heard to for a better society. How can I waste my my easily accessible right to vote when others fought so hard for it? Obligatory *John Brown did nothing wrong*, lol. But i do want to ask something - My understanding is that SBA prioritized white women's rights because it was strategically pertinent to do so. I see the reference to the "cut my arm off" statement often, but given the context of the political climate and "understandings" of the time, intersectionality was difficult, if not impossible, to apply irl. - is this not true? It seems to me that it is, but I'm open to and interested in hearing another take. Susan B Anthony is your aunt?? I love Rochester, I really do. It's such a historically rich city, and I truly believe that it will step out from under the shadow of the 20th century industrialism that failed it so brutally. I just hope it's sooner rather than later!

Not here to debate…..but I am very stressed about the 2024 election and how it could affect my next pregnancy…

1ggd1kz

Title: Not here to debate…..but I am very stressed about the 2024 election and how it could affect my next pregnancy… Body: It’s so utterly insane that this is even a worry in a massive country like the US. In a perfect world I’m planning to be having my second baby sometime between 2026-2027. However, if a national abortion ban takes place I am not risking my life and risking my son growing up without his mother. I am not here to debate, just here to vent that it’s ridiculous that if Trump wins and does do a federal abortion ban, it could possibly make it so my son is an only child. I know I am beyond lucky to have my son, but I really wanted him to have a sibling. Overall, it’s just very ridiculous that this is even a possibility. Anyone else feel the same or worry the same? EDIT: I clearly stated that I am not debating. I am also minding my own business and not spreading hate. I am creating a space for women who are scared or worried about this topic. If you do not fit that category this post isn’t for you. If you do want to debate then I am sure there is a political Reddit page for that. The fact you can’t just give us this space speaks volumes to your character. Top Comments: Any time I start to think about this election my anxiety goes through the roof.... I'm right there with you Mama. Hugs!! I totally get how you feel. I had a chemical pregnancy and realized it was getting close to now or never time and I live in a red state. It took me six months to get pregnant and shortly after my state successfully enshrined reproductive rights in the state constitution. It was such a weight of worry off my shoulders during a really challenging time. I hate that we could still end up back there again. I’m pregnant now and the abortion laws in FL changed during my pregnancy. I distinctly remember sitting in my OBs office and realizing that at this point, if something went wrong or if I needed to get an abortion for whatever reason - I’d have to leave the state to get care. Vote, if you haven’t already. I’ve never been a single issue voter but for women there’s not much you could argue as more important than this. As someone who went through the horror of having an ectopic pregnancy right after he killed Roe v Wade I 100% sympathize with you. I'm in a purple state, but thankfully the governor said he wasn't going to make it illegal or I wouldn't be here right now. 100% a national ban is coming if Congress goes red. It’ll be the first line of business. They also have talked about banning birth control in some states. I don’t think that’ll happen immediately. But definitely they will make it no longer free. I heard somewhere “rapists are now free to choose the mother of their children.” My state has a 6 week abortion ban. I didn’t even have my appointment to get my pregnancy confirmed until after the 6 week mark. Leaving it to the states is getting women killed because of the laws they’re enacting. We are 1 and done. My husband got a vasectomy. I refuse to leave my daughter motherless because a bunch of ill-minded politicians decided they knew what was best for women. We’re dying. Women are dying because of this. And they don’t care. I am so lucky to be due in January and plan to be one and done. I live in a left-leaning state, but we have a republican governor. I'm shocked they haven't taken away abortion here yet. I feel for all those who want a kid/another kid in the future but are scared of what it will be like. Pregnancy is already scary enough; we shouldn't have to be terrified of not being able to receive lifesaving medical care. Sending hugs. I lived in Texas when I unexpectedly became pregnant with my second - I was told there was a cyst in my uterus that if it popped would end the pregnancy. Well, unfortunately I ended up having a miscarriage and we rushed to the OBGYN only to be treated awfully - the woman confirmed I was miscarrying and then asked me to leave because I was getting blood everywhere. I think she was just scared of any negative implications to her due to the recent announcement, but it was one of the worse moments of my life amplified. I was at home miscarrying with no medical intervention and too scared to go anywhere/let anyone know. You are not alone. ❤️❤️ VOTEEEEEEEEE PEOPLE! FOR THE LOVE OF GOODNESS, VOTE!!!! Your concerns are valid. Hugs. Your last sentence is the best worst single line horror story ever. I’m the same way. My life is very full with my one daughter and while I believe I would like one more I am waiting to try a few more months to see. I don’t want to be another news story and I don’t want to leave my daughter without a mother. People say he put it to the states and our state is not going to ban but I think they underestimate the probability of a national ban. I also don’t want to see resources spread so thin that my doctors are unavailable with those coming here from out of state. It’s problematic even for people who want a child and if someone doesn’t understand that I don’t have anything nice to say about their ignorance at all. Nope, there was literally a story on the news two days ago about a woman who went to the hospital because she was having a miscarriage. They said they couldn’t help her because anything they did would be considered an abortion, which is illegal in her state. She ended up dying. 2024 and a woman died at a hospital because they were too scared of the law to treat her. I’m in Ohio. I’m glad we passed the amendment and I am happy that the courts keep upholding it but I know the Republicans in charge of this state are going to keep fighting it for the rest of my life. I’ll just have to keep voting and organizing against them forever for my daughter’s sake. My friend’s sister had one right around that same time but thankfully she was on vacation when it happened, so she received care in that state and it is a blue state. Otherwise, who knows what would have happened if she was in Georgia at that time. It’s scary and men don’t think or realize all the things that can go wrong in a pregnancy unless they have experienced it with their partner. Women are worried about these things and read about all the complications, so they are much more aware and it is unsettling what life might look like here soon. i’m OAD and terrified to get pregnant again. i’m already 41 and in perimenopause and do not want a change of life baby. i started birth control recently for the first time. i was too afraid of the pain of an IUD or else i’d have done that. would have taken me through menopause. i was pro-life until i had a baby. now i’m keenly aware of reproductive healthcare and the repercussions of removing those rights. my son will need to/will be strongly encouraged to do IVF with his future partner and i’m worried laws will go into place limiting genetic testing on IVF embryos. i’ve spoken at length with his geneticist about this and no one wants his children to have to suffer what he’s suffered. plus we recently found out he’s a carrier for another genetic syndrome as well. I already voted. 🗳️ 💙 I work late on Tuesday and am glad that I won’t get to doom watch the TV. For those saying Trump wouldn't institute a national ban: it's not like he'd veto if Congress passed one. And, I'd suspect they'd use the 25th Amendment on him ASAP so there'd be a President Vance instead. I'm on the fence about having another anyway. I'm almost 38, and my hands are full with my almost six month old. If Trump gets back in, I'm definitely not having one. Currently, I live in a red state, but I have the means to go to a blue state if necessary for medical treatment, if necessary. I don't want even that taken away from me. Also, my baby is a middle class white male, so he would be okay, but I wouldn't want to bring a daughter into that. It's really tough! I'm trying not to worry about it or I'll go insane! Yes I feel you! Roe v wade was overturned the day we met with our doctor to discuss IVF. I remember being terrified and asking the nurses if I needed to stock up on the abortion pill because I had just gone through two miscarriages where my body wouldn’t expel the fetuses on their own. I’m still terrified because we have a few embryos on ice that we aren’t quite ready to get rid of, but worried about the government viewing them as “children”. The whole thing is so ridiculous. Which state do you live in? I'm trying to get out of Texas! This is how I feel. The fact that Trump laid the foundation to overrun Row vs Wade that has now led to the death of so many women shows exactly why women should have the right to choose and make their own healthcare decisions codified into federal law. The states can be ass backwards about a lot of things bc it's easier for special interest money, religion, and other factors to influence what happens at a local level. Some states wanted slavery and fought over it - should we allow states to have spaces again too? Should everything be decided by the states and just do away with regulation altogether, including food, safety, drugs and healthcare? Folks just aren't thinking about the ramifications of where we are, what project 2025 wants to do, and where we are headed under another trump presidency. Body autonomy and the ability to make your own decision about your own health should be a human right. Don't want to have an abortion? Don't get one. But for women that need lifesaving care, they deserve full access to medical care. I just had my second kid under the Biden admin, and am done after this one bc I have no idea where things are going to go and I'm terrified of losing access to healthcare. I feel op's worries and concerns 100%.

Rigged election 2024

1ggufrx

Title: Rigged election 2024 Body: Top Comments: Ok. So for this to be the case, either: 1) Every employee of every news station in America has to be in ion this. And not a single one of them - from the CEO down to the guy who takes out the trash - has leaked a single word about it. It's an entire industry that's somehow without a single MAGA or any hardcore Dems. Or 2) somebody just fucked up and ran test testing graphics, the thing that happens every election. Didn’t this happen in some channel last time too?? I seem to remember something like this happening. It didn’t turn out to be the same numbers election night, but I think so. Ahhhhhhh, reasoning and logic… Yeah.... how stupid would they have to be to leak it then it turn out to be EXACTLY like the leak? Someone at ABC is seeing this post and thinking, huh I probably did use those numbers as my test display data Sadly, there would be nothing we could do about it if they showed the exact same numbers. They think we’re stupid, and most people would go along with it. This sub is kinda trash now. Haven’t seen them around here for years  People are so dumb. This was an accidentally aired test graphic. Obviously they prepare extensively for such important broadcasts. Do you think they're just going to slap all that together as it's happening? Quick, get the graphic designer to work up a chart for the US Presidential election -- oh why oh didn't we think to do this last week?! Burdur. "Very precise numbers". ***ACCORDING TO WHAT!??*** As a computer scientist, I'm sure Elon Musk has heard of test data. I think it's the 100th time I've seen a screenshot of a random Twitter post talking about it without evidence of anything. Also, it's conspiracy sub, but it's being used by Trump supporters to try to stir people up before the election even happens. Like every other post. And it's all the same shit. yes, they do this every election to test the system and every year people think it's a conspiracy. Just playing devils advocate here; why would a rigged election require every single employee of every single news station in the country to be in on it? No! Logic bad! This evidence Trump win. Election rigged! Hunter Biden laptop. [deleted] The counterpoint to that is the Manhattan Project where something like 100,000 people knew some part of it. I was thinking something similar. This is one of the biggest things they’ll air this year. They are definitely prepping graphics and scripts ahead of time for both candidates. It’s not always malicious. That's a good question! The answer is that it's a local station, which means that the rigged numbers have already have been distributed nationally. Which means dozens of thousands of people all operating in absolute perfect secrecy, buttoned up tighter than a SCIF. No outside vendors, and background checks, and impossible levels of trust. Otherwise, one email left on a printer, one overheard phonecall, or finding the wrong envelope blows the entire operation. And that level of secrecy doesn't end at the election, or ever. In reality, people with access have leaked military secrets to win video game arguments. Everyone at every station, newspaper, and news site has to exercise better information security than the three-letter agencies. And what's the payoff? The powerful stayed powerful under Trump just like they stayed powerful under Biden. Just like they'll stay powerful under Harris or Trump again. Any entity powerful enough to execute this wouldn't be afraid of presidents. I think they do it on purpose to get a laugh every four years. You know there’s a group of nerds absolutely laughing their asses off that people think their test is an actual mistake releasing a rigged election. Ngl it’s kinda of an epic troll. I like their sense of humor…

Is the 2024 U.S election actually as important as both sides are saying?

1gh0spc

Title: Is the 2024 U.S election actually as important as both sides are saying? Body: I'm English so I don't know much about America nor it's politics but i've seen so much hype around the election this year compared to any other, both sides acting like this is the most important election ever and that if their side doesn't win it would be a travesty for America. Is the hype and/or importance around this election real or is it always like this in the upcoming months to the election? Top Comments: At least as important as any since the Civil War. It's two very different roads for this country and the rest of the planet depending on who wins this one election. Trump tried to overthrow the country, has utter disregard for the courts and rule of law, is losing his cognitive ability, wants to be a dictator, if he appoints more justices we’ll be locked into creepy Christian conservatives law for 50+ years with no appreciation for separation of church and state, reproductive rights, LGBT rights, etc On the other hand, even if he gets elected - we showed how strong we are in blocking his nonsense and preserving the rule of law and blocking him in the Courts. In fact, it strengthened the left before and will likely do the same again. There are great people in both parties that will fight for freedom and democracy so I’m confident things will be okay in the end. [removed] For all the shit left leaning media catches about making a big deal of Russian interference in the 2016 election, the Mueller report makes it totally clear that there was copious and obvious coordination between Russian actors and the Trump campaign. Nobody should be surprised if it’s happening again. He literally talks about his calls with Putin. I think he might be working with Russia... I don't even think he's necessarily working with Russia. There's plenty of Americans that want to undermine our Democracy who are backing Trump, such as Leonard Leo, Peter Thiel and the whole of the "New Right". Theil has openly said that he doesn't believe in democracy Well yes but half the country has stopped reading and using logic so that Mueller report doesn't matter to them Trump already tried to steal the last election and he’s openly talking about his various authoritarian plans, from arresting political opponents (including election officials, lawyers, donors, and voters he thinks cheated, while he’s claiming 75% of the country is his base), sending the military against opposition, shutting down media organizations whose reporting he doesn’t like, and rounding up millions of people before sticking them in concentration camps. Yeah, it is extremely important. If Trump wins he will set out to destroy our democracy and civil rights, he’s said as much openly. The US as a dictatorship wouldn’t just be bad for us but for the entire world. Last time Trump made 3 mistakes due to inexperience. He won't make them again: 1) He left in place all the career government workers who work to keep the government normally. These were the main source of pushback against his policies. At the very end of his term he enacted a policy that made all government employees At-Will(as in can be fired without cause), and while Biden immediately reversed that, Trump will implement it immediately this time and they will remove any government employee that is "disloyal" 2) He appointed a lot of people who had done a great job of sucking up to him, but didn't necessarily agree with his goals of being a dictator. That won't happen again. His team has a whole stable of people lined up who are ideologically pure to put in place. 3) He picked a VP who was basically a more normal republican. Which was kind of the point to picking him, but Pence had at least a shred of appreciation for our democratic system. JD Vance is a follower of Curtis Yarvin and Peter Thiel, who want to dissolve the federal government and turn the US into a bunch of small technocratic city states. [removed] Romney and... okay I got one. He’s not MAGA at the moment. It seems like 95% of them kiss the ring eventually. Quick reminder that JD Vance claimed to be a never trumper just a few years ago. It's an important election for ALL western Democracies, because MAGA IS aligned with Putin and Orban and would certainly pull out of NATO. Authoritarian movements worldwide would be emboldened and grow in power as America would favor them over traditional Democratic governments, who would now have to kiss Trumps @$$ or risk punitive financial measures. Project 2025 is the plan. It will remove anyone who is not a yes man and replace with a yes man. If Trump wins, we are screwed. ….and Romney is quitting. Because no previous candidate had a plan to destroy democracy and a Supreme Court ready to enable it. Trump said he wouldn’t come to the aid of NATO members if Russia attacked them, which was the whole point of the alliance in the first place. Trump literally said, “No, I would not protect you. In fact, I would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want.” Just last night he said he wanted to [put her in front of a firing squad](https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/trump-fantasizes-liz-cheney-firing-squad-1235149792/). Fuck that guy. Mitt Romney retires next year. His support dropped like a rock after voting to find Trump guilty in his impeachment trial. He recognizes that he'd likely get primaried like Liz Cheney was. The "good ones" all got primaried already. The only reason Romney is still there is because senators have six-year terms. Just look at what happened to Cheney. She was removed from her committee positions, censured, and removed from the GOP all because she spoke out against Trump.

How BG3 Characters would vote in the 2024 United States Presidential Election

1ghbdb6

Title: How BG3 Characters would vote in the 2024 United States Presidential Election Body: Top Comments: I agree with most of these but I can't really see Minthara voting for Trump or Voss voting for Harris. Minthara would agree with some of Trump's policies but she would never vote for some she doesn't respect, and taking into account the fact that Trump is a man and his numerous shenanigans... I'd say she just doesn't vote lol In retrospect I think Minthy would abstain because she rejects any government that’s not an autocratic Drowish matriarchy. I think Minthara would probably go third party, or abstain from voting completely. IDK that either drow would vote for a man over a woman. Don't get me wrong. Minthara would \*really\* like Trump's policies and rhetoric but like...vote for a man? Minsc would definitely find some way to vote for Joe Biden, though. Not sure how, as I'm pretty sure he didn't write it in as he can't spell either Joe or Biden. But he \*would\*. No way Raphael doesn't write his own name. It checks out with how pathetic he already is. Finally one of these that puts Astarion in the just won't vote category  Mithara would write her own name in Astarion doesn’t give a shit. Even if he remembers there’s an election, which he probably doesn’t, he doesn’t really care how it turns out. Scratch - disenfranchised felon Nah, she'd just try to storm the capitol building and the White House and take the government over That was my thought. "I could never vote for HIM. He's a man after all. I'm more interested in this Margery Taylor Greene. I'm intrigued by these orbital lasers and weather magic she's concerned with." Minthara would just do a coup I wonder if Minthara would vote for a man at all, period... and might even question the wisdom of having a male VP on any ticket. She seems more likely to rally the remnants of her loyalists and some Lolth-haters and January 6th *herself* into office tbh Strong disagree on Minthara. The drow are obsessed with gender dynamics and her dialogue makes it very clear she fully supports those policies. I can’t see her ever supporting a man over a woman for power. Mknthara would not vote for trump because man being in power is disgusting in her eyes Pretty good, but I think Gale is smart enough to know that in First Past the Post voting for a third party is throwing your vote away, so he would be pro Ranked Choice. The man used to be a magistrate so he should be into politics, and yet it's so in character for him to not give a shit. 😂 TBH, while I can see Minthara totally believing that \*certain people\* control space lasers and the weather, I'm pretty sure this would only make her want to join them. She'd be like, "Well, if NOAA controls the weather, clearly I must join and dominate NOAA." Although how that would translate to voting, I'm not sure. Dammon is voting for the Green Party because the VP said Trans women shouldn't play in womens sports Nah, Dammon is fine, it's just his VA that's a problem.

Harrison Ford Endorses Kamala Harris-Tim Walz Days Before 2024 Election

1gi4b0r

Title: Harrison Ford Endorses Kamala Harris-Tim Walz Days Before 2024 Election Body: Top Comments: "Nazis. I hate these guys" Luke and Han are now both against the Empire. Leia would too if she were still here. You gotta be doing something right if the arguably grumpiest guy in hollywood is coming out of his shell to endorse you. And yet if we had Chris Evans - Captain America himself - promoting Harris, it still wouldn't sink in for the Trumpers. The Avengers and Batman all endorsed Harris, meanwhile Hulk Hogan practices his shirt rip move for the next klan rally.  It’s funny because since Mark Hamill came out in support of Joe Biden (and later Kamala Harris) - his social media comments are filled with people who venomously disagree with him. As in comments like “You were supposed to destroy the Sith! Not join them!”. I have also seen people compare Trump to the original trilogy. “A New Hope” for 2016 when he won. “The Empire Strikes Back” for 2020 when he lost. “Return of the Jedi” for 2024 for his potential victory in 2024. Did these people miss the point of Star Wars? They must be losing their minds now that Harrison Ford has endorsed Harris. Harrison's got a grumpy persona, but he's also genuinely one of the funniest people in Hollywood in part because of that. He also just seems like a genuine, common sense driven person who has a long history of using his self and his resources to help others. So I'm not surprised by his endorsement. Jar Jar was a low information voter if there ever was one. He did And that is why it is such a double edged sword for the Star Wars writing team to listen to fans -- because a lot of Star Wars fans are fucking stupid. I would know, I've been in the fandom since I was a kid. Yeah, I think “gruff” is a better descriptor than “grumpy”. By most accounts, he seems like a good dude. I almost felt pity watching Hogan feebly try and rip his shirt off, then I remembered where he was, and just laughed. It was pathetic. Meesa propose that the Senate immediately give emergency powers to the Supreme Chancellor. We got Luke. We got Han. He and the Avengers just had a stream where they endorsed Kamala. Kamala Harrison Ford Had to do it. I also think the whole "gruff" or "grumpy" persona is all an act anyway. It's a way to entertain himself and have fun doing the one part of his career - selling - that he hates. He's developed a persona he has fun "putting on" in order to get through it. At least that's my read of him. last time i noticed Chris Evans was a progressive, he did endorse Biden Glad I watched Air Force One last night It was so funny to me that after Levi came out for Trump, people on r/ conservative said "well now there will be no Shazam 3 because of this" and I'm like, there will be no Shazam 3 because Shazam 2 (sadly) bombed

2024 Pre-Election Cold Open - SNL

1giezq3

Title: 2024 Pre-Election Cold Open - SNL Body: Top Comments: "I can open doors." Perfect. Maya was so happy "I just wanted Liz Cheney to go hunting with her dad" is hilariously savage lol. Hearing them at the same time… damn. Her impression was so fucking good. Look, I know it's not the reason to vote for someone, but I am repeatedly caught off guard by how wonderful Kamala Harris' smile is. Falalala The whole trump portion was some of the best SNL writing I've seen in awhile. "The last time I got this mad at a mic I tried to have him killed" The cold open, the Tim Kaine sketch that actually has Tim Kaine, the musical number, Chappell Roan They are going the fuck off tonight. I swear SNL is on fire this season https://x.com/KamalaHQ/status/1852902858284314720 I don't think SNL has ever had their jokes reflect reality so accurately and so quickly, he literally sounds done tonight irl just like in the skit, it's uncanny This was insanely well executed. From the strong hold during the applause to nailing every single line. I know this bit will fall on deaf ears and won’t change the election, but damn it feels good to vote for someone with that level of competence and confidence. God speed, Kamala! I was caught off guard by Trump demonstrating fellatio She has the mannerisms down perfectly, it’s crazy [Mirror.](https://streamable.com/k8ehwg) Edit: Link updated. Edit: Updated again. Edit: Updated for the last time. Biggest surprise of the night was Tim Kaine being better at reading his lines in the sketch than most of the cast members This may be the craziest thing of all. Despite all of the chaos we have had, maybe chaos to come, and he just... says it out loud? In a lucid moment? And they still cheer!?! They were **phenomenalalala** Let’s watch a Rom-com-ala “The last time I hated a mike this much I almost had him killed” got me so good. I will say beyond the policy and not actively harming my LGBTQ loved ones, how happy she seems makes my heart melt. Trump always seems miserable and like he’d rather be doing anything else. Kamala with the Shade-ala! Even just his exasperated exhale was a perfect expression of how he seems like he’s just trying to somehow at least get to the finish line at this point but he’s losing his stamina and his temper in the process

Two years ago, my wife became a US Citizen. This week she voted in her first election. Trump 2024.

Title: Two years ago, my wife became a US Citizen. This week she voted in her first election. Trump 2024. Body: Top Comments: God bless her! Most immigrants flee here for better lives and opportunity. They know whassup! Welcome new citizen! A REAL immigrant! Please accept my heartiest (albeit somewhat delayed!) welcome and congratulations! My wife came to America from Cuba in 2004, became a citizen in 2010. She also voted for the first time last Saturday. We both voted for Trump and we live in NY. America held lotteries back then. They allowed so many Cubans to come into the country if they won the lottery. My wife won. Do you always come to conclusions without collecting data? You sound like a dick. Neither do I. Trump 2024. My wife isn't illegal. You need to work on your personality skills dude. You're aware that there is a thing called a 'visa', right? ETA: There's also a thing called 'green cards'. Second this☝🏻☝🏻☝🏻 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💯🇺🇸 I am a legal immigrant, my whole family came in the early 60’s as legal immigrants, why? Opportunity, freedom and quality of life, we are self sufficient and financially self supported. I don’t support what Pres Biden and his cohort have done to immigration to gain political support. I don’t support what has happened with my freedom of speech due to the sexual orientation laws. I live in CA were almost everything is illegal with dictatorial laws like property laws, restrictions of the 2nd amendment. I understand and support people like President Trump, why because he is a successful businessman and I know from his past performance he will do great for our country. I hope after his presidential term, he tries for the California governorship, true uphill battle but if anyone can do it, he can. The best news ever I heard. My wife is in the same process as this and she says she will vote at next election as her first. Proud! MAGA! Congratulations and a happy late welcome! Thank you for voting Trump, he is protecting the US and the world. What Kamala and Newscum did to CA is sad. Most legal immigrants hate Democrats’ open border policies. I became a US Citizen in 2021 (pregnant with my son) less than a month to his birth. I LEGALLY migrated to the US in the 90s. Today he voted with me! Trump doesn't hate her because she came here legally and isn't committing crimes in our country. Congrats! You love to see it. So glad to hear she made it home. Trump only hates Child Molesters and those who enable them like sex traffickers and easy on those criminal voters... Big congrats! Oh? Every woman I know of, including myself, debunks that claim. Even online, I've seen far more support for the other side. Some were quite amazing to me. It would be stupid to "secretly" vote Harris. Why would anyone "secretly" vote for the popular liberal candidate? You're uninformed about the immigration and naturalization process. I held a green card for at least 10 years and became a citizen so that I could legally vote.

Title: Election 2024: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (HBO) Body: Top Comments: Hold the phone…..HBO is abandoning the Thursday model (Max-to-YouTube pipeline) for this show right now? I'm guessing it's a 1 time exception. Wild it's this close again. Hope you are ready for January 6th - Foliex a Deux. Maybe you are lucky and this one will only be lame ass musical numbers as well this time. Glad they uploaded this one right away. Would have been fucking insane to hold it till Thursday. Is that t-shirt about to blow up?? Could be a strategic move for increased viewership during the election season. Bully him and find out Please don’t give me hope. I don’t think it’s gonna be this close at the end. Pools just tying to be more cautious this time plus it gets more people out to vote.   John Oliver said he hated the format in an interview; he might have negotiated for this one to be available in full. Do you remember when Trump promised to solve the Palestinian - Israeli conflicts and sent his sociopath son in law there to broker a deal ? No one will care about an election segment after tomorrow anyway Yea especially with the Iowa poll yesterday, if it’s true get ready for an early night Something tells me John demanded it Tomorrow. OMFG I can't wait for this American election to be over. I'm in Ireland and lke the rest of the world, we're all just holding our breath. If I was American I'd probably be just popping xanax by the sheet at this stage. Forget 2016, 2020 was ridiculous. You had 4 years of Trump and the initial east coast results looked like Trump had won. Biden only got in thanks to a few votes in Penn and Michigan, and they only finalized a few days after (remember STOP THE COUNT)? I don't think we are likely to get an early call at all unless Florida somehow flips, Penn won't call until at least Wed or Thu unless it's an unexpected blowout and it all hinges on them 2020 was hilariously stupid. Trump supporters in one state chanting "STOP THE COUNT" and then Trump supporters in another state chanting "COUNT THE VOTES" at basically the same time as each other. To quote someone on "X": >There is not a vote you can cast that will save Palestinian lives. There just isn’t. We will have to use other means for that. There IS a vote that will save Black, immigrant, woman, and LGBTQ lives in America. I still believe that vote is worth casting. This is not about whether Harris or the Democrats “deserve” power. It’s about whether marginalized Americans deserve a Trump autocracy. Despite our flaws, I truly believe we don’t [deserve that]. They went to Jared that's always been the case. They've always had a main story and a side story, and only post the main story to youtube.

How would Europeans vote in the 2024 U.S. presidential election if they had a chance?

1gjjmjt

Title: How would Europeans vote in the 2024 U.S. presidential election if they had a chance? Body: Top Comments: Who is the “Other” that 8% of Swiss think they would vote for? Sweden, Denmark, Finland,  Norway and the Netherlands all consistently place at the top of places to live, quality of life rankings together with New Zeeland and Canada.  I wonder how they would have voted.  Interesting choice of colors. EDIT: 1.6 K upvotes? I've never ever had that happen before, crazy! Thank you! Just to reply to all: Yes, I've read the key. Yes, I know the colors symbolize European political views, not American. I just think that when you're talking about how Europeans would vote in a US election, it would make more sense to let the colors represent the American parties. Example: "A majority of Europeans would vote blue in the American Elections". Clearly, that sentence would mean they'd be voting Dems. Serbian here, all my friends think highly of Trump, in reality they don't know shit about politics, NOTHING DJT would be un-electable here in Denmark, based on his personality alone. He political career would have been over the minute he made fun of that disabled journalist. Seing Russia results should tell something to americans… no? NO? This confirms that I live in the Louisiana of the EU. YouGov has the UK voter base at 61% for Harris and only 16% for Trump just FYI. Jill Stein perhaps Well in Europe, blue is generally color of right wing parties, while orange of center parties. But yeah, they probably should have used classic American red and blue. I wonder if they just included "Green" so Swiss Greens chose that option. American Greens are bloody dreadful. What does the 6 bottom countries excluding russia have in common? Heavy russian propaganda efforts. legendary swiss neutrality strikes again Neutral ballot In fact, European Greens are just center-left with a focus on green politics. American Greens are kooks with many weird ideas. Especially with everyone referring to Trump as orange, it's really confusing. Maybe 2-3% of Americans have a chance of ever seeing this data, of which 30-40% will have a reaction that is “Who cares what the Europeans think.” Hoping for good news tomorrow… I'm from Hungary, and I'd say that people here are politically illiterate, so I wouldn't count their votes, to be honest. Government brainwashing has done its work here. Makes sense, it’s what happens with lots of his voters… Because Biden is extremely pro Kosovo, and Kamala is/was his VP. It's literally just that.

Place your bets! Who do you think will win? US Election 2024 🇺🇸

1gk5cmc

Title: Place your bets! Who do you think will win? US Election 2024 🇺🇸 Body: Sa mga Pinoy na nasa US, ano ang political climate sa states nyo esp sa swing states? Sabi nga nila, whoever is elected in the US, affects the geo-politics in the Indo-Pacific region. Sino gusto nyo manalo and why? Top Comments: By popular vote, Harris. Pero by electoral college, ewan. Rooting for Harris na lang for continuity sa policy nila sa WPS. Sorry wala akong magandang ambag sa thread na ito pero gusto ko lang din sabihin na mas okay and mas aligned sa moral beliefs ko si Kamala Harris sa iba nyang platform Ang dagdag ko lang is that okay na pinapagusapan natin ang US Elections kasi buong mundo damay nito tbh As someone na sinubaybayan yung campaign nila Kamala since the coconut memes — i would say na they really gave their all AND they executed perfectly from start to finish. Pag di pa sila nanalo it would 100% reflect on the people, not on the campaign. Good luck Very simplified: per state may electoral votes based sa population nya, isipin mo points sya. California has 54, Texas has 40, Pennsylvania has 19, etc. Total ng lahat is 538, para manalo ang isang kandidato, kelangan ng majority = 270. Kung sino ang panalo sa boto sa isang state, sa kanya na yung points nun, winner take all kumbaga. So kung si Kamala ang panalo sa CA, sa kanya yung 54. Kung si Trump ang panalo sa TX, sa kanya yung 40, etc. May exceptions sa Maine and Nebraska, but we'll ignore that for sake of discussion. Now, bakit hindi kunin ng isang kandidato yung lahat ng malalaking points na state? Halimbawa, kunin ni Trump yung CA, TX, Florida, etc. para mabuo agad yung 270? Kasi, yung ibang states baluarte na ng kada partido. Sa CA laging Democrats ang nananalo, sa TX lagi Republicans. Kaya kada partido at most mga 200+ points sa mga baluarte nilang states. Dito ngayon pumapasok yung mga battleground or swing states. Kaya sila nagiging battleground is ndi nila parehas baluarte tong mga state na to, so yung resulta nila ang nagti-tip or swing towards the eventual winner. Hindi kalakihan yung points nila (Pennsylvania has 19, Georgia has 16, Michigan has 16, etc) pero pag inipon mo sila, sapat na para ipush to 270+ at manalo sa eleksyon. Then kaya din sinasabi na may specific state na nagiging tipping point (nung 2020 it was Georgia, but most often it's Pennsylvania) is nakaipon na both ng ~260 points each, so nakasalalay na lang sa iisang state yung resulta. Kaya pag election cycle sobrang laki ng pinopondo ng mga kampanya sa pagbisita sa mga battleground states, especially Pennsylvania. Lastly, the term "Electoral College" is the name of the entire system, ndi sya school na pinapasukan 🤭 the "college" refers to "collegiality" ie. yung equal individual power ng states working towards a single output: determining the president. I feel like it’s the same with Leni and BBM. During the campaign period Leni voters are the most active but BBM ended up winning. Might end up with a similar situation in the US. I'm hoping Harris would win but from what I see, Trump has the edge. Yung mga [polling nung 2016 elections](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nationwide_opinion_polling_for_the_2016_United_States_presidential_election), ang laki ng lamang ni Clinton kay Trump pero we all know what happened. Ngayon, dikit sila sa polls kaya mataas ang chance ni Trump manalo dahil sa electoral college. I hope I'm wrong. As much as we want Harris, malakas ang chance ni Trump 30v60% si Leni at BBM, 50-50% si Kamala at Trump so definitely not similar at all. The world is doomed I trust in Prof. [Allan Lichtman](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allan_Lichtman?wprov=sfla1), who recently predicted that Kamala would win this time. He uses a different method (13 Keys) to predict the outcome of US Presidential elections from that of major polls. So far he has correctly predicted 9 out of 10 since 1984. *If you're curious as to that one time he got it wrong, he actually has some merit in claiming that Al Gore should have won.* I have a sickening mental image of DDS supporters wholeheartedly supporting Donald Trump, only for him to deport their OFW relatives and snatching their income bald Most whites are conservative. Sa totoo lang marami pa rin sa kanila ang ayaw sa babae o mixed race. Sana manalo si Kamala Harris. Hindi tayo pinalad magkaroon ng Presidente na dating Bise. Sana huwag matulad ang U.S sa atin. Grabe ‘no, their election will still have great effect on other countries in terms of policy. Hindi lang USA ang maaapektuhan. the philippines is doomed pag nanalo si trump. Kamala sana pero ewan…pag si Trump nanalo bka ibibigay na lang nya Pinas sa Chaaaiina kasi ayaw nya ng wars parang Ukraine sa Russia… Over here, it’s leaning towards Trump… like sure ball Trump. It is what it is i guess 🤷🏻‍♀️ Agree. Maraming trump supportet kasi na silent supporter. I have an aunt who's a doctor in a known hospital in TX, sabi nya mostly mga professional pro-trump. Nun panahon daw kasi ni Obama grabe yun tax nila tapos napupunta mostly sa mga di naman qualified ang tulong. Tinotolerate daw pagiging unemployed. Si trump daw kasi pro-economy, pro-worker, pro-american. Kaya mas ramdam nila yung return ng binabayaran nilang tax during trump. Trump kasi tingin ng mga kano lalo lumala yung amerika nung panahon ni biden na vice si kamala. I'd love it to be Kamala pero parang Trump ang maingay. I honestly don't understand why a lot of Americans hate Kamala and would rather vote for Trump. I'm not from there so obviously I don't know but I just hate Trump or what I know about him at least. Anyway, good luck America! Hoping all the best for your country 🙏

[Megathread] 2024 USA Elections

Title: [Megathread] 2024 USA Elections Body: Welcome to the endgame everyone! Today’s the day America chooses its numerous state and local level leaders, the entire House of Representatives, a third of its Senate, and the President of the United States. Not much of a flavor text up here since everyone has probably figured out what’s going on by now. If you’d like something added please ping myself or another mod. If you’re new to r/neoliberal, please see our sidebar for policies that are important to us. These include but are not limited to free trade, open borders, trans rights, and the wide distribution of taco trucks. Please use this thread for discussing the election during the day. This may range from serious takes to stupid memes. At 1800 EST (10 hours from this post) we will post a Thunderdome for Election Night. God bless the shitposters, and god bless the United States of America! 🫡🇺🇸 Top Comments: If Kamala wins I’m going to spend the next four years tormenting every MAGA I’ve had the slightest disagreement with. If Kamala loses I hope my enemies can win with grace and maybe show a little maturity for once >Hello any MAGA morons in this thread. I just want you to know that I’m going to drop 40 ballots for Harris in Michigan unless you cash app me 70,000 USD.

For context, Steve has a job where he drives all over Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, and Indiana. In 2016 he was the person who alerted me to there being a degree of Trump enthusiasm that simply wasn't being captured in polling. Even during the pandemic he was driving, and he reported even higher levels of Trump enthusiasm based on observed signage. This time h's reporting a much more mellow sense of Trump support in the places he drives through. It's not gone, but he's seeing reduced prevalence. Fingers crossed the Steve-o-Meter is accurate. https://preview.redd.it/bdr2xkli23zd1.png?width=748&format=png&auto=webp&s=84c4d52d34237824c0db9429854150ec87c86d25 never forget what they took from you https://preview.redd.it/b8x8dbak53zd1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=14e002e4cfa7ef163a8355030ea6a4e9ed466447 https://preview.redd.it/wq9bt8vha3zd1.jpeg?width=959&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1e8d038dfa514c7ccf0b779705c3daa0c2f68fc7 https://preview.redd.it/0vxz0k9t53zd1.jpeg?width=1290&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=36197eb964ed7a6fd1f068b7ff2899a3196dd0dc TRVST THE PLAN https://preview.redd.it/jww4wd9l03zd1.png?width=980&format=png&auto=webp&s=366cfb1acc2f090f6541c568270bcdfe7e330997 https://preview.redd.it/g4xwyya553zd1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ecca6faf98d890d11b9438cf05c49eac5ddea8ef just voted for harris in PA 🫡 Last New York Times insight : There are 4 different possible scenarios : -Harris wins by a lot -Harris wins by a little -Trump wins by a little -Trump wins by a lot Wow thank you, newspaper of records. nate silver taking $300,000 a month in subscriptions to show a website which just says “50-50” If I keep scrolling I will eventually find information that proves Kamala Harris is going to win tonight https://preview.redd.it/fnrc570xa3zd1.png?width=1173&format=png&auto=webp&s=db9e4f531cd6913f8019ca25966b0ad8d9c390b0 holy shit >Recent polling suggests women “repulsed” by JD Vance https://preview.redd.it/15yxncay13zd1.jpeg?width=1290&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2d0cd77103186b5b932c04575b6f67bd15eec27a https://preview.redd.it/99liyw3d63zd1.png?width=1152&format=png&auto=webp&s=85a11c8728f33568138eaecf0a89fed815f3d08d Keep calm and secure the steal guys https://preview.redd.it/34qamnri53zd1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=822000568375cd23f827975532b84d545fcec009 https://preview.redd.it/8ags755cd4zd1.jpeg?width=1290&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0aa60c48b048693dc451256d1ca1b5b2aaf53fb6 Based

Jimmy Kimmel Makes “Closing Argument” Ahead of 2024 Election: “Imagine a World in Which No One Says ‘Donald’ or ‘Trump'”

Title: Jimmy Kimmel Makes “Closing Argument” Ahead of 2024 Election: “Imagine a World in Which No One Says ‘Donald’ or ‘Trump'” Body: Top Comments: I've been imagining this for about 8 years now. The only Donald I want to hear from is a duck. Trump is like a fairy tale monster. If you dont believe in him, he wil disapear quickly. And Glover 29ish here.  One more election people! If he loses he’s done. The Republican Party won’t lose 3 straight elections running the same candidate Let’s put a pause on celebrities running for president… This is exactly what we want. No mentions, no pics, no memes of him, just gone. It's not the Republican Party anymore, though. They're so thirsty for his cult's support they'll follow him to the grave. Sad reality is when he loses, they will still bring him up. Freddy pooguer I’ve never believed in him. But here we are. I wish it were so easy, but this skid stain of a human being has done irreparable damage to the country. His cult following seep hatred, crave violence, and want everyone that’s not them, gone. They will continue to idolize him, and fight for their agenda for the rest of their lives. Not to mention the slew of rednecks shilling fuck Kamala merch What if we like to play Euchre with our buddy Donald? Ducks Not Dicks! It’ll be a decade. At least. Then what would Jimmy talk about all night? This dude makes his living off Donald Trump. Yes and he’s already too old/signs of dementia

Trump got 74 million votes in 2020, which is more than any other Republican candidate has ever gotten, and he still lost by 7 million votes. Aaand if Ann Selzer is to be believed, not only will Harris get all those enthusiastic Dems, she’ll probably also get a significant % of enthusiastic Republican women who have finally had enough of Trump. (At least this is my hopium). Okay, time for me to go vote and help Harris win GA! If you're voting for Trump due to the economy, you're either extremely wealthy or you're uneducated and should go back to school.
