I think the problem with this article is it is bemoaning that Biden ISN'T doing what Clinton did - shore up support in states he's considered a longer shot in (TX/AZ), and is instead focusing on the traditional blue wall (MI, PA, WI). Remember when Clinton spent so much time in North Carolina, all for it to be nothing? All while insisting NC was going purple in 2016? Originally Posted by Valkyrst

On your recommended videos, click the 3 dots on the top right and select “never recommend”... just to answer a question you might be asking soon... Originally Posted by Ivanstone

Yah, my reference to Brianna Keilar and Erin Burnett was that they're the only folk actively calling out his rallies as massively unsafe. Originally Posted by Felya

I think I knew around the same time, when Virginia was too close to call at the time. Virginia, the state where Clinton's VP candidate was from. She eventually won it, but it was downhill from there. Originally Posted by Felya

Agreed, it also just seems to be complaining for the sake of it. As of now, he's swimming alone finely. Originally Posted by eschatological

Because people don’t understand what fair and balanced means... copy the successful format... and have pressure from the White House and their loyal followers, to present Trump in a better light. If you have Biden win total viewership of several networks, by several million. While Trump has every network beat on Fox by several million. Who is better for your bottom line?

No, actually, this day in 2016, Trump was leading by +2 in Ohio. Originally Posted by Ghostpanther

I don't even know anyone bothers responding to the OP. Just a waste of time. No interest in the truth, only here to create drama. Originally Posted by PhaelixWW

He was a good poster before 2016... although... It is likely I was less aware and more foolish. If we don’t learn, what’s the point? Originally Posted by Valkyrst

Mail-in-ballot FTW. I've voted that way in the last four elections (as well as local) and will keep that up. The best way to get disenfranchised voters able to vote is allowing them to vote from the comfort of home. Originally Posted by Felya

Sad when that happens. Had a few friends I've had to distance myself from because of how off the reservation they've gone. Originally Posted by Felya

I'm also guessing with the pandemic you've got to be more careful with any potential for health complications? Originally Posted by Darsithis

For me, personally? Yes. I have polycythemia and HIV, neither of which are good with COVID. For everyone else, it's probably also a really good idea. But I look at the more long-term aspect of it. I want to see more voter participation, and the easiest way gerrymandering can reduce voter turnout is to make it difficult for people to reach polling stations (especially low-income paycheck-to-paycheck voters who can't take time off) or reduce them. If you can vote from home, then it doesn't matter where polling stations are, it doesn't matter what job you have, or your income level, or your skin color, or your political party affiliation.

Yeah, that's what I was referring to in terms of health concerns. It's really not worth the risk. For others too, it's just best for folk to vote by mail, although having a President who is actively trying to assault citizens' abilities to vote is just sickening. Agreed on all counts.

That would be giving me credit... I’ll stick with being foolish... that came out wrong... you know what I mean! Originally Posted by Milchshake

I have some childhood friends who do that, too - yet they rage at me when I disparage Trump... Originally Posted by Milchshake

As it stands right now Biden has 278 electoral votes and that total doesn't include toss-up states such Ohio, Florida or Arizona. While it does include Nevada, even with it removed that still leaves Biden with 272 electoral votes. Originally Posted by Ghostpanther
