The 2020 thread....

[Julian, Forum COGNOSCENTI]

I know it matters only to me but Biden is going to win Michigan by 3+%.

If it means it's such a margin that Trump can't really dispute the numbers, then I care.

So the polls had you fooled into thinking America was more liberal than it is?

Or you still can’t accept that many Americans identify with Trump? You kept assuming all the new turnout was going to go to Biden! Kept telling you that you couldn’t assume that... you almost had this attitude that anybody voting in 2020 that didn’t in 2016 couldn’t possibly vote for Trump


Florida... you been there right? Did you think it was all Coconut Grove and chicks with dicks on South Beach?

Sounds like you don’t know this country very well...it ain’t Arlington

My mom didn't vote in 2016 and voted for Trump in 2020. She is definitely not a chick with a dick. She is a low critical thinking, uneducated person who fears "socialism" (even though she is of the economic class which most benefits from government programs) and probably even feels comfort in authoritarianism. She's also not even a wee bit racist, though some SJW's would automatically brand her as such.

i'm thinking this is one of the  biggest challenge centrist liberals and progressives have a the moment, how to create and sell programs to poor rural american to benefit them without coming off as socialism... it could be a simple as effective opiod rehab and then employment

that and getting more democrats running in all the local races where republicans run opposed... my far better half is now doing research for this group... https://contesteveryrace.com/

also need to start paying attention to these non-partisan judicial races and partisan sheriff and DA races

and as Danica Roem pointed out yesterday,

New rule, Democrats:

Any time we donate to a federal campaign, we match it to a local/state campaign where our donations make a much bigger splash per dollar.

Agreed?

Ugh


Although, Biden is a centrist!


This is what makes the fact a Trump had some success painting him a socialist so infuriating

I see winning any senate seats in Georgia as pure pie in the sky... our best and only shot was Tuesday

[kosmo vinyl]

no kidding Biden is a centrist, some even  accuse him of being a republican

what the world needs is more practical liberals... go pie in the sky when you can, but try to make it work on a smaller scale if need be..

[hutch]

Anyone else think Mitch and mist senate Republicans are glad Trump lost?


Worked out perfect once they shoehorned that last Supreme Court justice

[kosmo vinyl]

Given we have sharpiegate, i'm sure it's only a matter of time before we get wagongate... more further evidence a lack of critical thinking skills

from Russ Jones local Detroit news reporter

A conservative “news” site reports catching a man wheeling in “suspicious” equipment to the Detroit convention center, implying it was used to steal ballots.

The “ballot thief” was my photographer. He was bringing down equipment for our 12-hour shift.

A nice light read:

Ernie Chambers

My wife @RebeccaSittler, a Nebraska native, reminded me today of why NE splits its electoral votes.

If Biden does not win PA, NE's single electoral vote (from districts around Omaha) will be why he has 270. THIS lone blue dot.

The reason is Ernie Chambers.

very cool and exactly the reason the EC doesn't work....Most states went with"winner take all" and large swaths of voters have been disenfranchised ever since.
Was that way when they invented the rules for the EC and they didn't predict that would happen

And make short-sleeve sweatshirts cool again.

[Julian, Forum COGNOSCENTI]

Nate Silver just tweeted he is not a decision desk but he deems Nevada "callable" at this point as he sees no path for Trump to win.

This would push Biden to 270 among the news agencies that have called AZ for him (Fox, AP, Economist, et al). We would be in a weird scenario and have to see what other networks do if Fox News is actively calling Joe Biden the President Elect in a few hours and they are not.

One of favorite election stories is about the sheriff deputy who was fired for being a lesbian, who turned around and ran for sheriff and beat her old boss who fired her...

I think there will be incredible pressure inside and out for Fox to rescind their stance on AZ. They’ve been pretty firm on it up until now but......

I can't wait to watch this play out.....

This is too funny
