Better than it being down to people like the bloke on the news tonight who absolutely detests Trump but will vote for him anyway because Socialism.If US democracy comes down to a popularity contest between Taylor Swift and Elon Musk then that is not great, even if it gets the result you want.
I hope it works.If US democracy comes down to a popularity contest between Taylor Swift and Elon Musk then that is not great, even if it gets the result you want.

Reply to this post with your prediction of the final Harris and Trump vote (rounded) shares in the battleground states.
My prediction:
State - Harris % - Trump %
Arizona - 49 - 50 (Trump)
Georgia - 50 - 49 (Harris)
Michigan - 50 - 49 (Harris)
Nevada - 49 - 50 (Trump takes the EC votes)
North Carolina - 48 - 50 (Trump)
Pennsylvania - 50 - 48 (Harris)
Wisconsin - 50 - 48 (Harris)
Electoral College Outcome:
Democrats - 286
MAGA - 252
Kamala Harris wins the election.
I almost don’t want to tempt fate but I’ve been reading too much polling data to not at least try and guess…
State - Harris % - Trump %
Arizona - 49 - 50 (Trump +1)
Georgia - 51 - 48 (Harris +3)
Michigan - 53 - 47 (Harris +6)
Nevada - 51 - 49 (Harris +2)
North Carolina - 46 - 52 (Trump + 6)
Pennsylvania - 54 - 46 (Harris +8)
Wisconsin - 52 - 48 (Harris +4)
Electoral College Outcome:
Democrats - 292
MAGA - 246
I basically think the rust belt is going to end up not being as close as people think - particularly PA. And North Carolina always surprises me with how red it is. My lowest confidence is in Georgia, really can’t tell for the life of me what’s going on there.
Yeah, but it doesn't come down to that, does it?If US democracy comes down to a popularity contest between Taylor Swift and Elon Musk then that is not great, even if it gets the result you want.
It wasn't my idea that Taylor swift would be the democrats secret weapon, ask the poster that posted it.Yeah, but it doesn't come down to that, does it?
It's an inane straw man, unless you have some data that says the majority of those voting for Harris or Trump say "it's because Taylor/Elon told me to."
But, sure, another reed to beat stupid Americans with, why not?
As a human being, between those two, there’s absolutely no contest.If US democracy comes down to a popularity contest between Taylor Swift and Elon Musk
Yes, in the short term it's fine, but I worry that we are diluting the significance of voting for governments to the same trivial level as a TV phone in vote like (fucking) strictly or something of that ilk.Better than it being down to people like the bloke on the news tonight who absolutely detests Trump but will vote for him anyway because Socialism.
Tbh, I don't really get the charms of either.As a human being, between those two, there’s absolutely no contest.
They’re American, so they are buns, not barms or muffins.What was their view on the barm/muffin debate?

And I thought my glass was half empty!!!Trump will win
This planet will then bit by bit descend into an orgy of death, oppression , hate and murder unmatched In human history
Best to just accept worst case scenario now!
Even more optimistic than me, I like it!
No! I’m guessing at EC, but educated guess at state results. I could do a tot up and edit tomorrow if I have time. Don’t put any money on my predictions.@KS55 are you sure that's right. Biden didn't win NC and he got over 300 college votes.

No, you’d hope it doesn’t come down to that, but to be fair to MSC, I don’t believe he’s trying to make out that all Americans are stupid. At least that’s not what I got from it.Yeah, but it doesn't come down to that, does it?

Just seen a news report about that.There are reports of how effective the Democratic effort on the ground is. Tens of thousands of doors have been knocked on and the Democratic vote is coming out to play.
Moreover there is poll evidence that late deciders are heavily favouring Harris. Trump is indeed talking himself to defeat.
Keep it up. Vote Blue.
