    It will be an early night, but a loooooong rest of the year as the Democrats will have to fight with bad faith election board representatives refusing to certify the election.

  2. If Trump loses North Carolina, strap in. The second it looks like they might lose NC – any swing state, really – the Republican spin machine and the Trump propaganda machine are going into overdrive. We’ll be lucky to make it through the night without bursts of political violence, and we’ll be left hoping that luck holds through January 20.

  3. Florida will get its results in first. If the Democrat wins the Senate race down there – and it’s a big “if” – the GOP is fucked

    I’m from NC and I intend on trying to make this happen. I’m not just voting for Harris, I also want to keep the violent nut bag the GQP has running for governor out of office.

  5. The election seems close to many, but I’m pretty sure we won’t have to stay up too late before we know who won.

    Yeah, except that it doesn’t really matter how badly Trump loses, he and MAGA still going to try to steal the election just as hard.

  7. At the rate (of the Haitian springfield allegations) I think Ohio might be back in play too, if it keeps getting worse over there

    With the black uber-MAGA Nazi Mark Robinson running for governor, I would say North Carolina has a good shot at going Democratic.

  9. I’m in NC, and I’m doing the “postcards for swing states” program. My wife and I have a stack of 500 postcards and an address list. Most nights we sit down and hand write out a message begging the person to get out, vote Blue, and encourage their friends and family to do likewise. They go into the mail mid-October.

    i remember when Obama won. lady on the gas station intercom “OBAMA, OBAMA, OBAMA!!!!” i will never forget her joy and energy.

  11. The fact that this class is still polling the way he is astounded. How can anyone consider voting for someone as stupid, demented and functionally incapable of any cognitive thought.

  12. ….it was beautiful….the most amazing loss in any presidential race….nobody could do it better….loose all states…..i mean….my greatest achievement …., this will even eclipse the billions i lost …
