Mega-Thread: 2020 United States General Election

[Thepersona]

Wait wait...the Trump administration lost 360 of the children they kidnapped?

This is an elaborate way to say that they given them to child traffickers.

Souless bastards

The CA cuts aren't actually bad in context, between added dropboxes, voting centers (no need for specific polling locations), and mail in voting. The state has pushed pretty hard to make voting easier, safer, and more convenient while keeping it secure.

[Thepersona]

I mean...the Truth and Reconciliation Committee is gonna be fuckin busy when it gets started. Because everyone involved in the creation and execution of the child separation policy should absolutely go to jail for this. This is monstrous, truly monstrous, and the behavior of a brutal dictator or incumbent third world nation without the resources to handle such logistics. Not the most wealthy, powerful nation on the planet.

I can't say I'm surprised, but I'm disappointed that the Q nutters and Evangelicals don't seem to care much about these kids. I guess it's the kids fault for being brown or something.

This is an elaborate way to say that they should be sent to the hague for crimes against humanity, and possibly hanged for them.

Newsom did cut in-person polling places in California. On the other hand, he sent ballots to every single registered voters and increase the number of ballot drop off locations.

Not much, just a Trump supporter holding the "OK" sign with his hand in the air for a real long time. You know, the sign that's designed to "Troll the libs" because it's totally a joke about it being a white supremacist symbol, and please ignore that white supremacist's have actually started adopting and using it.

"You know this guy that spent 47 years in politics and has a racist legacy crime bill, which ruined many poc lives, to show for it? He said sorry so vote for him over the other guy who caused record black and hispanic unenmployment!"

What an absolute clownshow

And Trump got owned for that retarded comment.

Oh no, Joe! It seems even CNN is calling out Hidin' Biden's bullshit:

Facts First: It's false that Biden never said he opposed fracking. In two Democratic primary debates, Biden made confusing remarks over fracking that his campaign had to clarify. In 2019, Biden said "we would make sure it's eliminated" when asked about the future of coal and fracking; in 2020 he said he opposed "new fracking." Biden's written plan, conversely, never included a full ban on fracking or even on new fracking. Rather, it proposes "banning new oil and gas permitting on public lands and waters" -- not ending all new fracking anywhere or ending all existing fracking on public lands and waters.

https://www.cnn.com/2020/10/23/polit...eck/index.html

And yet, Trump lied more. Anything else you want to try? And I don't mind the fracking ban, maybe people will stop having fucking water they can literally light on fire thanks to fracking.

Not helping to pass the racist crime bill for once?

You mean the crime bill that even the Congressional Black Caucus was in support of at the time?

Bidens China efforts lead to millions of american job losses.

Biden sided with credit card companies and authored a law that made it harder for consumers to declare bankruptcy and also helped create the student debt crisis.

Thats just a few of his faulures. I wish you spent more time informing yourself on Biden.

So, your sources are the Trump Campaign and the National Review? Let me know when you get actual facts. Because the National Review article is an opinion piece by fucking TOM COTTON.

And Biden did better than Trump with Swine Flu, because Trump is actually doing NOTHING for the Covid virus.

Milo Y is very upset with this plan. He's raging on twitter about it!

I love this game



back on topic.

I really want to see how the early independent voters split. I just know it wont be 50/50

That is Milo Yiannopolous's account? Cuz it is suspended LOL.

I would be amiss if I don’t mention some of these states.

My state California is at 5,802,511 (40% of 2016 total vote count). By the time this election is done, GOP may only have 3 congressional districts left in California (1, 22 and 23).



Iowa is at 685,236 (43.3% of 2016 total vote count). Surprisingly, Dem is ahead by 20 pts. I thought Iowa is Trump's country. That's a pretty large gap at over 40% in.

Please tell me this is going to be close to the end of the voting. It will be hilarious to watch Ernst get removed from Office, and Iowa to not be a Trump state anymore.

[Rasulis]

So far 6,380,684 voters had voted in Texas (71.1% of 2016 total vote count). Total vote prediction is 12M or higher. Which will be record breaking for Texas.

Both Democrats and Republicans are going into this blind at the moment. The problem is that 39% of the early voters have no prior history. Since Texas voters are not registered by party affiliation, they have no idea which way these new voters are voting.

Well maybe the writing was on the wall for a couple years now, when republicans lost 2 of the 3 seats they held in the house in 2018 in Iowa.

Yep, and watching Steve King get primaried was just as good as 2018 when most of Iowa went blue.

Ransomware in a Georgia country fucked their signature database. They're having to manually review the physical original signatures now.

Our voting infrastructure could sure use all that funding and the improvements Democrats have been pushing for for the past 4 years.

I had posted that earlier...it's looking like a test run for larger attacks.

It's still encouraging, because higher turnout is just great, with the added benefit it usually helps dem's, which is why pub's like to supress.

"We're not supposed to have a socialist — look we're not going to be a socialist nation. We're not going to have a socialist president, especially a female socialist president, we're not gonna' have it, we're not gonna' put up with it," he said.

A FEMALE socialist president!

Perish the thought, m'lady.

Tens of thousands of new cases a day. Back to 1,000ish deaths a day.

The task force is meeting once a week.

This administration is literally killing Americans with its callous incompetence, failure to lead, and lack of care for the average American.

Update: Recent polls...

Global Strategy has Independents at 39/31 for Biden.
Quinnipac has Independents at 47/37 for Biden.
Morning Consult has Independents at 49/38 for Biden.
Ipsos has Independents at 47/30 for Biden.
SurveyUSA has Independents at 52/36 for Biden.

Not to remind that things may change. You do realize that no one knows. Even the mail in vote count is just what party has turned them in, not how they voted. The voter polls as we found out from 2016 aren't always reliable at all. I would suggest that people on both sides just make sure to vote.

I don’t think so Arizona is a Red State. They govern from the red.

Yeah, it isn't like Krysten Sinema took Jeff Flake's seat away from Martha McSally in 2018. I suppose you're also not aware that Kelley is leading McSally in 2020 for the special election for McCain's senate seat.
https://www.realclearpolitics.com/ep...elly-6801.html

I don't think Arizona is quite as red as you seem to think it is. I do find it a little unexpected that Republicans are losing AZ; when I take into account the shit they've pulled by hitching their horse to Trump, and all the mud he's slung at John McCain it does make a fair amount of sense.

Republicans who liked and respected John McCain probably aren't fans of Donald Trump, so it isn't surprising to me they'd go for another veteran who is also an astronaut instead of the GOP-approved McSally.

Relax guys i was kidding when i said as a European would vote for Trump vs Biden but he did better on this debate

Trump is really a ****show and a liar, i really hope for everyone that he dont get elected again

But i have to be honest, Biden seems to me (as a outsider dont kill me) that he would be the typical politician and would do almost nothing to help the rest of your country

Hope i'm wrong and Biden wins and gives many of you better lives or at least bring back what Trump destroyed

Peace. have a good weekend

a president who is a typical politician who will make politics boring again, would be a breath of fresh air right now. Of course with Fox news having changed the news cycle landscape, social media now being a thing for conspiracy theories and other nonsense, we'll never have that again. No matter who is president from now on, everything will be sensationalized. We are down the rabbit hole and through the looking glass and have been there for quite a while now.

As warned by 538, the national polling averages are tightening. Biden's lead is going down generally by around 0.1-0.2 a day. Will be interesting to see what the post debate polls look like, although I expect polls by and large to be between the +6 to +10 range in Biden's favour as of now.

Battleground rates are hovering in the same range as before. I would expect them to all see +/- 1 changes over the next 10-11 days.

Voter turnout is still key. Aggression on part of the Dems is still key.
