Not in terms of percentage of eligible voters. 2020 was highest in that term since like 1910 at 66.6%, but 2016 was very mediocre at 60.1%. Neither cracked top 5 or maybe even top 10 though.
So we’ll go live on television and show our face. Also be weary of selective vision.
The fact that women were going to turn out and have been energized by the attack on reproductive rights has been quite clear ahead of today, though.
Anyway, the mood in this thread hasn’t exactly been stable, and mere pictures of queues outside polls being dominated by men in certain districts seemed to be enough to dampen a lot of optimism in here
expecting a few twists and turns still.Don’t!Ahh 2016 nostalgia
Sounds like @Florida Man 's hurricane prep.
Hate to say it but I called it the other day. I knew he would blame his supporters. I'm just a little shocked he said it before the vote came in. I guess though, it just shows where his head is at right now.
You can't compare election turnout from the 19th century with modern elections. The pool of eligible voters was very different, for example. If 2020 was the highest since 1910, it's effectively the highest we should care about.
we will be fine Raoul.. NV + PA will be ours.Let's hope they've fixed the polls!
I'd be happy with winning the blue wall, so we wouldn't have to keep it late to rely on NV.
I used to love staying up all night to watch the election results. Now I’m just terrified.
All I’ve heard for the past couple of years is that gen z don’t play no shit when it comes to people telling them what to do… let’s hope that includes abortion rights!
Thanks!
I usually can't sleep so there's that
Such a charmer. Also, that's a fake Melania right?
Hopefully the taylor swift army take him down
Someone yesterday (I think, maybe the day before) listed some specific areas to look out for in terms of results as potential indicators of what’s to come. Anyone know when that was? Be keen to have that to hand.
I think that's the Melania T-800 model.
It really fecking sucks that we’ve lost Twitter. I’d curated a list of people I enjoyed following and used to enjoy election nights.
In Ny don’t you have a general idea by like midnight?
Although I suppose last election was more complex
This would’ve been over already if Harris dropped a pokemon go reference

Is gonna be drama swerving till midnight- wednesday
Again, lazy. That was a second figure for me to look up
Yeah, He definitely brought to vote many people in rural communities that never cared that in essence is not bad
Always knew you were Don Jr.
Is a reporter going to ask who the hell that woman with Donald is?
Same, yeah. Although I was still in college with Obama's second term and Trump's first, so never went to bed before 3am anyway. Now it's a bit harder with work tomorrow morning
Think I'll go to bed early and wake up at like 5am when the real results are hopefully coming in, nothing much happens anyway before 1am Belgian time.
Hell ya. I'm definitely not Eric, that's for sure.
Circling back, I know someone who puts Diet Coke in red wine, please tell me you’re not doing that?
Right but our own timelines (or what gets shared here, on a sports-related web forum) are going to be more reflective of vibes and it feels like there's been a disconnect between the vibes and what, like you said, was quite clear empirically or logically reasonable ahead of today.The fact that women were going to turn out and have been energized by the attack on reproductive rights has been quite clear ahead of today, though.

Social media causing an increasing separation between the real world and projection, making it harder to use it to analyze the real world when the inputs and algorithms and the models don't best reflect reality. Part of that is intentional
What is that

The craziest drink combo I’ve heard is whiskey and red bull
Circling back, I know someone who puts Diet Coke in red wine, please tell me you’re not doing that?
I never mix the two. Although I do know someone who mixes sprite with white wine, which was actually not bad.
I also know someone who swears by this combo (plus ice). It's like an even chavvier Cheeky Vimto.
Circling back, I know someone who puts Diet Coke in red wine, please tell me you’re not doing that?
That’s an actual drink in Spain. It’s called Calimocho. Equal parts coke and red wine. It’s mainly popular with young people.

She’s from Oldham.
Whiskey and red bull sounds vile too.
I’m gonna take your word for that!
