The Politics Thread

Tim Walz lands in Long Beach, California. There's a lot of crime in the Los Angeles region. I realize that the George Floyd riots originated in Minneapolis, Minnesota. What has he done lately about crime?

He hasn’t been convicted on 34 criminal counts for one.

I am worried to death. Fingers crossed.

Some trump supporters tried to gatecrash her rally...

You know your tabloid is a piece of shit when the “go Y*nkee$” World Series preview is by far the LEAST offensive thing thing on the cover.

My instinct tells me this will be similar to the 'red wave' stuff in 2022.... I think Harris will win reasonably comfortably.

Elon Musk has put $75 million into Trump’s campaign so far.

we need publicly funded elections. everyone running gets a pile of cash for campaigning. no donations. no dark money "PACs"


people will actually have to get elected based on their merit rather than which billionaires they can talk into funding them

 

[philthepat]

Polls aren't even worth thinking about, at this stage especially, but this made me laugh... Harris taking Iowa would be fun

 

[soxtrot3]

Go out and vote Tuesday!

 

[DemonessBaby]

With a tight race, it may take time to tally all the votes.

Feels like one of the most significant weeks in recent memory... not just for the US but the whole world really.

I think Harris will win still... but you know there will be plenty of shenanigans. Trump is almost certainly going to 'declare victory' as early as possible just to fuel the start of his 'it was rigged' BS.
