The Election Day Thread

So I guess Alaska is the Hunter Biden’s laptop of this race. Still hasn’t announced a winner and nobody gives a shit.

Well we care about a Senate contest up there. Anything is possible....

Come on 306 to 232 ... !

Joe crossing that 300 threshold feels __so__ much better

Whatever you’re smoking is now legal in Oregon.

I have no idea what you are reporting on. All the news sites haven’t budged.

I'll admit as a stupid lib, when you have 2 assault rifles running for office I really I don't know what the difference is and I really don't plan on educating myself on that. We are all free to choose our willful ignorance.

Goddammit, that's ridiculously fantastic.

The power of avatars. It’s a comment like this that truly sounds like it’s coming out of Bender’s mouth.

Billy West actually revived Zap Brannigan's character a few years ago with Trump quotes.

Well, if there's any more applicable use of his go to insult, I can't imagine it ...

TRUMP CAN BITE MY SHINY METAL ASS !

Brilliant.

And quite surprisingly and inexplicably up-lifting.

EXACTLY! For a 'fanboy' it certainly hits in the feels.

Yes, it does hit "in the feels"; I wanted to feel ecstatic emotion rather than a sort of teary emotion, but, both are good.

I like this post; that is clever, all too true, absolutely apt and very, very funny.

I would also like to get this in a nice frame

You can combine them too. It’s been reported that the areas with the biggest recent COVID surges are also home to the most Trump voters. I used the words biggest and most in that sentence so it must be winning. Keep it positive.

When the GOP looks back sometime, if they ever do that with eyes wide open in Georgia, they're going to see their shameful steamroll maneuverings in the 2018 governor's race claimed by Brian Kemp with a whole new level of misgiving for how well it worked to lay in "so much winning."

Did they think Stacey Abrams' founding of Fair Fight Action to address voter suppression in a way never done before in states like Georgia and Texas (and now 20 other states as well) was some kinda joke?

The real joke was eventually and always going to be trying to keep voter suppression on a roll forever in the USA.

Anyway Stacey Abrams is owed thanks by more than half a nation's voters right about now. She should be able to write her own ticket in a Biden administration or however else she will like to extend her sturdy brand of dedicated public service. She built the platform that supports so much of Georgia's expanded blue vote that showed up in the outcomes of this week.

In retrospect, I wonder if Stacey Abrams NOT winning, motivating her to do her outreach is what helped defeat 45?

If so, nice work Kemp. You will be next.

The math of approaches to a marginal utility of damn near zero.

Trump's just about there and got there all by himself.

Phoenix rising from the ashes, man. It's a myth that keeps on morphing, and in fact Abrams has still not dropped her lawsuit relative to that 2018 election, but it's a ancient story that endures for its emphasis on dramatic rebirth from death or failure.

Math of what though?

Oh it was purely hypothetical, outstanding EC votes distributed to the two candidates based on possible (probable?) wins from this:

So Joe:

16 + 6 + 20 = 42
264 + 42 306

vs. Dummy:

15 + 3 = 18
214 + 18 = 232

AK's 3 not shown on chart but at ~50% reporting, it's about 66/33 trump.

306 + 232 = 538 total
