Also no-one would get their pools cleaned or gardens trimmed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His foreign policies will fuck us over though, definitely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig 6682 Posted November 5 Share Posted November 5 I think she'll win it ... just. Going with 276 v 262. And then all hell will break loose because there's absolutely no way he'll concede. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with that forecast, but also think it is conceivable Harris may get a much bigger win because these reproductive rights issues are killinghis vote in women. Somebody made the point tha Trump might not kick off as much as last time, because he is due to be sentenced in NY shortly. If he was involved in another insureection, the judge might well send him down. His main goal has to be to stay out of prison. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a fucking pyschopath, he'll claim election rigging and demand the result is dragged through the courts. I agree that he'll stop short of insurrection, but he'll make a nuisance of himself, no doubt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 5217 Posted November 5 Share Posted November 5 It's going to be a long 2-3 days while this shitshow is sorted out. The close nature of the polls might scare Dem voters into action at least. Trump voters probably didn't need the push so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That assumes that people won't take to the streets in his name regardless tbf. He might be a bit more understated this time around but it doesn't change the fact he's been banging the 'stolen election' drum repeatedly. I think it's going to kick off even worse this time around if he loses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of Trump's strategy will be to declare victory early whilst the Mid Western states are still voting. The idea is that some democrats won't bother voting because they think they have already lost. Also to further ferment ideas of the election being "stolen". Nevertheless, my prediction is a Harris win and things not to significanly kick off (sure there will be isolated things happening). We'll see.

It might even be closer than the numbers I've suggested, but I still think she'll take it. Of the swing states I think he'll take Arizona, Georgia, & North Carolina. I think Harris will win Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania (just!) The one I can't make my mind up about is Nevada. If Trump takes it, and the rest finish as above, she'll win it 270 v 268 ... which will be closer than Bush v Gore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 44809 Posted November 5 Share Posted November 5 Jon Ralston says Harris wins Nevada, and that's good enough for me. He's a good follow on twitter btw. Nevada journalist who digs deep into the early voting and reports regularly throughout the counting. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone is talking about Pennsylvania being the key and in terms of college votes it does stand out, but I think they seriously fucked up allowing Tony Hinchcliffe to open his trap and then the GOP trying to argue "he doesn't speak for us" You put him on the stage you absolute fucking lunatics!

Not only did they put him on stage but they allowed him to continue his set - if they were really caught off guard he'd have been ushered off the stage, his mic cut etc. They knew what he'd say but were not expecting the reaction - which considering the sizeable Puerto Rican community in the US should be a clear indicator of the sheer incompetence Trump has surrounded himself with. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 21586 Posted November 5 Share Posted November 5 Whatever happens, Trump is on the way out. Hopefully involving a wooden box. The story of this election for me is Musk, who is the danger going forward. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/nov/05/trump-musk-election-voter-fraud-misinformation 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 30563 Posted November 5 Share Posted November 5 Musk on his own is reasonably harmless as he’s a charisma free zone. It’s if he can find the next Trump and use him as a puppet that worries me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s all mathematical equations and shit and strips out the noise. Apparently they’ve correctly predicted the last 10 or so presidents and have said Harris would win it more comfortably than a lot of people have said.
