Or has Wisconsin joined Canada while I wasn't looking? Or it could just be the University prides itself on having things laid out well...? But yeah, it's almost like things are working like they should. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turnout is way, way up, and that is good. Okay, what is this Congress woman basing her prediction on and why should I see it as more significant than other politician?

IheartIheartTesla Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Looks like Nate Silver fell back down the FL turnout rabbit hole: In Broward county D and NPA turnout is ticking up (also, Broward is the one county where democrats are winning the ED vote) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fragile Bird Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Like I said, in my (ummmm decades of) experience, big turnout usually means a desire for change! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Modern computer and internet technology is just hard for me to believe sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varysblackfyre321 Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 @Ran I know you see me as overly pessimistic, but I think my questioning of how that congresswoman arrived at her prediction is reasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Scot A Ellison Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 We had our first Trumpanista freak out. We had a guy who threw a fit over being asked to remove his “MAGA: Trump 2020” hat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aceluby Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Article I just read on Vice that I thought was "perfectly splendid"https://www.vice.com/en/article/pkddvg/how-gop-attempts-at-voter-suppression-could-backfire-on-trump Quote Efforts to dampen early voting among Democrats failed,” said Mark Jones, a professor of political science at Rice University in Texas. “Any problems on Election Day will now probably work against Republicans, and not in their favor. Quote “It’s always a bad idea to undercut votes, even if you’re trying to game it so that you undercut the other person’s vote and not your own,” Hoffman said. “Yes, I do think that can backfire.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
