I hate to lose our governor, but would love to see what he could do as VP.

This is good news, but we cannot get complacent! Plan to vote! And if you are really motivated, try to convince at least one other person to vote!

I love this message. Plan to vote, and plan to help others vote.

One tip I like is: if you have a car, offer rides to people that don’t.

For those in Minnesota… if you register (re-register? whatever. its the same process), you can sign up to have them automatically send your ballots to you every time there’s a relevant election. it’s a very-low-key tick box in the process.

it takes five minutes. and it’s super easy.

For everyone else, you can get directions on how to confirm your registration here. I would suggest checking now, before you find out that certain groups of asshats tried to have you removed for some strange reason…

Yep. The fuckwitted GOP and their MSM lackeys boned it by constantly attacking Biden’s age. He did the thing that they’d find unthinkable when he bowed out. Now they’ve unleashed the blue wave they’ve been fearing all along.

Pennsylvania is +1.1 to Harris? That’s crazy, it was Trump +4 like a week ago.

It’s pretty much of a tie. See what it’s like in a couple of weeks.

These are the numbers that really matter. I’m actually holding out a little hope that we could turn Texas blue soon, but I’d ask that the Democrat campaign not come here with too much heat, as there are better strategies to win more seats and the presidency.

A blue Texas would be a hilarious headache for Republicans.

+5 is breaking even +8 is a win, due to the electoral college.

It’s really sad that this is where we are now. She shouldn’t just be “ahead” of him- he shouldn’t even be an option. That there are people ignorant enough to even consider that traitorous criminals a candidate speaks volumes of how broken America is politically. And remember:

VOTE AS IF POLLS DON’T EXIST.

The ONLY thing that matters is the electoral college, and whereas the numbers are moving in the right direction, there is still a LOT of work to do to secure the future of America. VOTE. TAKE YOUR FRIENDS. ASK THEM IF THEY ARE REGISTERED.

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
