Ignore the polls. Do the work. Did you bring 10 soccer buddies to the polls with you?
The Serious Election Day Thread

Yeah, I wasn't being serious. Just offering it as a rebuttal to McM wanting to disenfranchise the 18-24 demo.
my soccer buddies, at home, from college, from pros, totaling probably 300 plus people, i would say are 90 percent dem. maybe 95 percent. they aren't with us politically brother
mediating that shit dog. if we're dumping the 18 year olds we've got to give something back. throw in some oldies
Well...OK, but I'm keeping my eye on you.
So like the over 65 crowd does now to the young, then?
Yeah, but Harris is only down 4 to Trump on trust on the economy -- and only down 7 on immigration. Those aren't terrible results for her. Think of where they'd be if Biden was still running. He was down well into double-digits on both...and they're probably the top two issues driving the election.
Actually, what I think would really work would be to go back to election by casting lots.
and you can believe everything is dogshit but trump is incapable of fixing it and not the guy. That said for the posters “envy of the world” “economy is killing it” is not reflected in public perception
I’m breaking my rule to point out, that’s because soccer is ghey.
Wife and I done our part.
If I didn't work for Mike Brauns company I'd have written in coach Cignetti. But have to get Mike to Indy to keep him out of the office! Lol.

CNN guy supposedly said the 'right direction vs wrong direction' on early exit polls are so strongly toward wrong direction that it would be very hard for Kamala to win. Per a post on r/moderatepolitics. No source. No idea what state, county, nothing,seemed to be an aggregate in his opinion of 'polls'.
The early exit poll the just showed on NBC(I know fake news) showed voters most concerned about...
Our democracy - 36%
Economy - 30%
Abortion - 14%
Immigration - 11%
And then some smaller ones. Interesting that the economy is not #1.

I wrote in Coach Curt Cignetti- he’d be much better than either of these candidates.
Going to be a delay in results in Wisconsin. One of the tabulation machines in Milwaukee wasn't properly closed at some point, and now they can't be 100% sure it wasn't messed with, so out of an abundance of caution, they will be starting all over. So every ballot counted since 9 AM today is wiped out and being recounted starting now.
The "Right direction/wrong track" poll has historically been a very trustworthy measure of voter behavior, but I think that correlation has weakened in recent cycles as the results have shifted consistently toward "wrong track" no matter what.
Does the exit poll only count Election Day voters, or does it include some polling of early voters, too? Because if it's the former, those are really good results for Harris.
Until that huge dump of Dem votes finally gets posted at 4 AM.
Not sure if this link will work. Saw it on NBC News Facebook page...

As long as it's fun, it's fine. The only thing that ruins this thread is partisan politicking. Look, we're not going to change each other's minds at this point. So stop trying.
Perhaps. I am very worried about our Democracy should Harris win.
At this point?
Yeah, I agree. More partisan divide in more recent years I think. And "wrong track' this time could mean vote for a woman/Harris. Or general dissatisfaction driving turnout. Plus Kamala won't get the standard share of blame for wrong track as an incumbent president would.
Holy crap, foreign policy at 4%? That has to be one of the highest results in recent decades for that.Not sure if this link will work. Saw it on NBC News Facebook page...

A Gwinnett County polling place that received a bomb threat, has been authorized (by a judge) to extend voting by an hour tonight. The polling location was down for an hour while verifying there was no bomb.
Al Franken isn't running this time.
Wasn't that uncounted box of ballots found days later? Or was it more like a week.
Experts say they were legit though...
I think I will skip the TV tonight, until late. I was going to take a night bike ride, but it's raining. So I'll drink heavily and watch Netflix. Not even any good sports on TV tonight...
The point was that this guy should have been a Trump voter, by all indications. I was surprised. This is not the first time a I've been fooled like that.
Damn. This guys doesn’t even care enough to watch the election coverage. How cool is he?
Okay, it's 6:00, so here's another traditional question: Whom are you watching? As usually, I'll default to NewsNation, but I'll get sick of Cuomo pretty quickly, and bounce around between MSNBC and Fox a lot. I can't handle CNN election coverage at all, and probably won't even glance at it except by accident.
Once in a while, BBC will probably be a quality check-in, too.
