Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

This thread is for the Presidential election, my plan is to start marking wins as soon as they are called, sorted by time zone.

Some states are going to take longer than others. Polls generally close at 8 PM local time, but they can't start counting early/mail in votes until after the polls close.

Wisconsin in particular has an interesting system where ballots are collected by MUNICIPALITY, not precinct, they have over 1,800 ballot counting locations and don't report until ALL 1,800 are in.

Maybe she should have listened to what they had to say.

[–] TipRing@lemmy.world 14 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

It doesn't appear to have mattered. I know it's an issue important to a lot of people here, but changing her stance on it would not have moved the needle. It literally comes down to inflation and xenophobia. And the billionaires putting their thumb on the scale as hard as they can.

[–] someguy3@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

And housing if you want to separate that out from inflation.

[–] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world -5 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

You have no way of knowing that because anti-genocide voters basically didn't show up. You dont know what you didn't measure.

[–] TipRing@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Yeah. They didn't show up. They literally don't count. That is political irrelevance.

[–] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world -1 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Democratic apologism and cognitive dissonance, name a more iconic duo.

[–] TipRing@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

I don't see what you're getting at here. You are literally imagining that there are vast numbers of people staying home over Gaza while telling me I can't know they don't exist.

[–] WrenFeathers@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

A more iconic duo you say?

Leftist Entitlement.

There you go.

[–] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

This was the natural result of the rhetoric you've been engaged in since you started this sockpuppet of yours.

We told you this would happen as a result of how you were approaching the issue.

I told you what the consequences of what you were doing would be before. I told you while you were doing the thing that would have these consequences. I told you after you did the thing that it would have these consequences.

And if course you want to blame the people who told you that the way you were approaching this wouldn't work. That when you did it it wasn't working. And after having done it we told you that you alienated more people with the approach than you gained.

You have no excuses. This is your loss. You own this.

You have no way of knowing that because anti-genocide voters basically didn’t show up.

how do you know what they did?
