US Presidential Election, Nov 5th 2024

[Frank the Yank]

Got out of bed at 5:30 AM.. didn't let my plantar fascitis stop me.. went and voted when the polls opened at 6AM when they opened.

Fair enough. Why anyone wouldn’t vote early is beyond me but to each his own.

Watching RTE here.
Amazing stuff. The elections in America are. Allied by the Networks, not a returning officer or equivalent.
Surely that has to be corruptible, given how the networks are generally biased one way or the other, or am I picking this up all wrong.

I must be picking this up wrong, surely.

what was the mood like at the polling station?

Just drove a buddy of mine to vote. Polling station EXTREMELY quiet but we are in a part of south Jersey that’s very quiet to start with.

I voted last Thursday had to wait in line about 10 minutes. Never had to wait before but then again this is my first presidential election cycle living here.

Trump will not get anywhere near 50% of the popular vote overall.

So you don’t reckon 48% isn’t anywhere hear??

Good luck America; I feel that whatever the result you are going to need it

My optimistic and realistic predictions, for shits and giggles.

There’s always a shocker so I’m saying the rust belt states won’t all vote in one block, Harris will keep Arizona and maybe scrape it.

Though I still really think Trump will probably win comfortably, see version 2.

My guess is that if Trump wins then once sworn in he is on borrowed time. I am sure Vance spurred on by Musk who will be guided by Putin to invoke is it the 25th Amendment (?) declare him unfit for office and get Vance installed

This is a distinct possibility.

Maybe they'll just let him trundle on for 4 years denying his obvious deterioration and let him run again before admitting a few months before the election he isn't fit and let the VP take over then. Sounds stupid doesn't it?

He can only serve 2 terms, unless the constitution is amended.

Hugs are accepted

The EC isn't the best, but it's what they have, so we'll just have to wait and see.

Presumably if he wins, all that voter fraud he claimed will just melt away?

Literally wtf

Still think the only state Harris can flip will be NC. It’s a matter of how many states Trump can flip..
