TODAY IS A HUGE ELECTION DAY FOR AMERICA - November 5th 2024 - Reports from Around The Nation.

When you see Raskin and other higher level authorities on his side behave irrationally and speak irrationally, it is because they know what Barack Obama said in his secret outgoing phone call in 2017, is true.

That is, A Trump second term will destroy lots of criminals in high places... Destroy their family names, and destroy their very lives.

Im in Northern California, in the valley. I live in an upper middle-class neighborhood. Trump lawn signs outnumber Harris signs by about 8 to 1. I repeat, Im in California.

As a conservative, like a large percentage just like me, we dont vote until election day. Im avoiding early lines and will probably go around 1pm. I wouldn't be surprised to see a close race even in so called liberal California.

Interesting scenario from Ben “thug life” Shapiro..

WATCH: Ben Shapiro has laid out a scenario in which Trump could win the election under a Supreme Court ruling if he loses PA, MI or WI because the 2020 Census undercounted FLORIDA.

"In 2020 they acknowledged it, after it - the government acknowledged - that they got the Census wrong. The problem is - how do you apportion congressional seats and electoral votes? The Census."

"Florida should have 2 more electoral votes. New York should have 1 fewer, Delaware should have 1 fewer."

"Trump wins NC, GA, AZ and NV. If he wins those, and he loses WI, MI and PA, the final Electoral College is Harris 270, Trump 268."

"Now... you have the state of Florida say, 'Guys, you messed up the census. The census is - we should have 2 more electoral votes, and you acknowledged this. So, we've now been damaged, we now have standing. This election really should be Trump 270, Harris 268."

"That goes to the Supreme Court [...] They decide whether the electoral count should be reversed based on the census failure."

TBH, it sounds like he is looking for election day clicks.
In what world would this not have been sorted out before today?

Do people really think it's gonna be that close? I don't think it will be close. TPTB need a landslide whichever person they pick so the "rioting and unrest" will be more believable.

This today

PA at it again

The same one that can't work out issues with ballots and voting machines.

ETA: post got wonky. responding to Vermillion about what world this wouldn't be sorted out in...

Wouldn’t that make it true for the inverse too?

I don’t think he thinks it’ll be close(I think Trump gets over 300) and I agree with UKTruth about posting his scenario for attention but I figured it’s very interesting, especially on Election Day.

The first to 270 wins. The race is called. The sooner this evening the better. Less violence.

No one on the left or in the Harris camp is hopeful. No one in the media has confidence. It is different than 2020 as well as 2016. In 2016, going into the election it was HRC predicted by like 90%.

Again, with every election since Reagan, the 'lastl mistake the establishment made, you have had the uniparty.

Bush-Mondale
Clinton - Bush
Clinton - Dole
Bush-Gore
Bush-Kerry
Obama-McCain
Obama-Romney

What do they all have in common? They hate Trump because he is an outsider. Does not play the game. Look at 2016 and there has never been another time in modern history you had multiple people of the same party represented on a ballot.

Biden never got 81 million votes from American Voters. Harris is going to get less than he did today. Biden, in 2020, had everyone supporting and endorsing. All Harris has is washed up actors and rappers.

People are voting for Trump in record numbers. People are simply not voting for Harris because she is not and never was the true nominee for that party and it affected millions. You can see it in the early voting. They jumped the shark too many times and it is over.

Today, when the election is over, the regime of Bush, Clinton, Biden and Obama is gone and it may not recover. You have millions over new votes who are young and want jobs, homes and a future.

If she is able to pull what HRC did I will be surprised.

PA sees their life flashing before their eyes and then is like...Everyone, please hold on for a few while we make a slight adjustment to the coding of the machine. But Don't worry, you won't feel a thing.

a reply to: SideEyeEverything1

Are you f'n kidding me? The fear is so strong they are not even using cover stories or doing it after hours. The other part is that people think others are just dumb.

Flash Drives? For multiple machines? No. They use USB 'post' election to carry results. It should not affect the current voting and if they are referring to HDD internal then you cannot tell me there were multiple failures. The chances of that are millions to one.

I voted straight R for the first time.

I'm in PA. Went early this morning. There were a few more people than I remembered at the same time in 2020, although of course that was Covid.

I'm skeptical Trump will get it. If he does, I hope it's a blowout.

What this country really needs is the Democrats to get walloped, for 2 reasons:

1. If they get creamed, that might make them recognize they've gotten too extreme (which they have) and maybe move back towards the center and sanity.

or, even better,

2. The progressive wing is so mad that the party fractures. I don't want that to happen so Republicans can dominate going forward. I don't particularly care for the Republicans either. But if the Democrat party fractures into smaller parties, I think the Republican party would be right behind it. And I'd love to see that, to end this 2-party monopoly.

polls are really tricky in America since we have an electoral college system that decides the winner.

All it takes is one state wrong in polling to shift the election. Pennsylvania very well could decide this one, and allegedly is one of the most contested.

Here in Southern Illinois where I voted, I have never seen such a HUGE turnout! And I voted in the morning. If it's like this in the other red counties in Illinois, we could choose the first Republican candidate for President since George H. W. Bush was elected in 1988. And as you can see from the map below, Illinois is mostly red except for the section at the top right, which is Chicago, which usually means Illinois most always goes for a Democrat candidate. If Illinois could swing Republican this year, that would really put a spanner in the works!
