According to Nate Silver the race is a toss up:

Which is NOT the same as saying that the election results will be close.

Have a good election day guys. I'm already mentally prepared to watch you guys make the worst possible decision. It's always entertaining to watch the most powerful nation on earth getting progressively dumber through the years.

It's so weird to me that a clear lunatic that does abolsutely nothing to hide his lunacy is running for president, and your country might elect him. It's unreal.

Thank God it is almost over. The b.s. propaganda coming from all different races would make Goebbels proud and that isn't an endorsement you want.

While it is a toss up on who wins, there is a 100% chance, this election wont silence everything else currently going on. In a few days at least...

My twitter feed will finally stop talking about it. And I can go back to reading science communicators dunk on anti-vaxxers.

And that is a change I welcome.

Ready for the campaigning to be over, that's for sure.

Also ready for things to get worse before they get better, no matter the outcome: Trump wins, it enables the MAGA movement to do terrible things just like it did before; Trump loses, they will cry foul and also do terrible things like before.

History will repeat itself, sadly.

But no matter what, I am ready for at least a few months of bullshit from Trump and MAGA.

Fresh thread. Let's try to keep everything in this thread so we don't have a bunch of different election topics.

Pretty much. I expect today and tommorow to be the loudest, but after that. I my feed will hopefully start being more normal again. Swedish election cycles only last a month. So I don't need to hear about elections again in 2 years time (Swedish elections are in 2026).

I'm sorry but I just don't see Kamala Harris winning this year's Election. I just don't believe in her and I'm pretty damn sure my Countryman would agree she's not right for the job.

I so very much hope that Trump loses. His meltdown will truly be epic. It blows my mind that such an absolute piece of **** like him is even close to being president, AGAIN! It’s insane.

@Archangel3371: Not to say there's a Prediction Jesus out there, but there is a guy that has an insane track record of correctly predicting president's based off a system he developed back in the 80's.

He says looking at poll numbers is useless in his predictions and a distraction for your average American.

He predicts Kamala Harris winning.

We shall see. Perhaps SargentD will soon realize he's that snowflake in the drive-thru.

(Discloser) Look, it's not like I'm a fan of Donald Trump, but Kamala Harris clearly isn't ready to take office in my eyes at all. This year it was supposed to be Biden vs Trump, Biden waited late to back out of the race and all of a sudden, the Dems gave everything to Kamala all of a sudden? I'm sorry but the Dems could have done better and give a better candidate opponent against Trump. I don't like the guy myself but this year's Election gave me a pitiful choices. I doubt anyone here feels the same way but that's all on me how I feel about Kamala Harris. Not cool to be mocking God Kamala, not cool at all.

Edit: Just a street rumor, I heard Kamala knifed Joe in the back just to get the Presidential candidate and if that's true, that's truly messed up and again, assuming that's really true.

Oh and what do you know, even posting funny wunny memes it links back to Russia. What were the chances.

Fucking hell Sarge, would thought would have learned by now.

Nope.

In April 2021, the SPLC reported that between November 2019 and August 2020, Posobiec had tweeted 28 links to SouthFront, a website linked to Russian intelligence. In return, SouthFront promoted Posobiec as well, and cited his tweets in their posts.

Following the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, Posobiec promoted the Ukraine bioweapons conspiracy theory and downplayed the Bucha massacre.

In February 2023, Posobiec tweeted a deepfake video depicting President Joe Biden announcing a military draft in response to a purported national security crisis. Posobiec tweeted false Biden quotes from the fake video, before calling it "a sneak preview of things to come". He later appeared in the video to acknowledge it was a "precreation...of what could happen.""

The same month, Posobiec boosted a false sexual assault claim against Democratic vice presidential candidateTim Walzthat originated from Russian propaganda networkStorm-1516.

This is my current prediction.

Something might be brewing in the Midwest. I might end up wrong about Iowa in terms of who’s wins it and one or two swing states.

Can’t see Trump accepting defeat. Probably get his crazies all worked up and storm the Capitol again. Make the previous attempt look mild in comparison.

I am playing Elder Scrolls Online. And people started bringing up the election on there... on the european servers.

I decided to troll them by saying I have no idea what the abbreviations TRUMP, MAGA and KAMALA mean? I have never heard those terms in Tamriel, or Nirn anywhere before.

Edit: The exit polling looks to be in Kamala Harris's favor, but that doesnt mean she has won. But still, I may have underestimated her chances.

If Trump somehow wins, I wonder whether Harris should just pull a Trump and pretend that she won. She can then certify a slate of fake electors and validly make herself president.

Republicans seem to think this strategy is 100% fair, so I assume they won't have any valid grounds to object when the other side does it?

@davillain: Honestly, I'm not excited about Harris, or how she got the nomination. She was never great at campaigning, and her policy proposals are not as well thought out or specific as they should be. That said, she has served in many levels of government, slowly working her way up the ranks to get where she is, which is usually what you want in a leader. Trump figured he could skip all that and win the popularity contest because he was already famous.

Kind of surprised no one talked about this in the legal thread or the harris thread, but apparently Elon Musk's lawyers admitted all of his petition winners were paid spokesmen and not random so no one had any real chance of winning, and now a class action lawsuit has started for textbook fraud.

Democracy is truly on the line peoples.

If Trump gets in again, abortion rights go away, women will be chained to kitchen stoves barefoot and pregnant, slavery will come back, and nazis will return while riding on the back of dinosaurs.

Also, I heard he will nuke Sweden.
