The only media I knew beforehand from the USA was Fox news and NYT  So thanks a lot for all the work to you and others, who did all the number gathering here Yeah I echo this, thanks for everyone who contributed here. Made it a real mega-thread and hub for election related content! | ||

I want hard ball. I agree on this. Dems shouldn't just give Reps what they want willy nilly, they need to drive a hard bargain. Reps have the Court locked up for at least another 15-20 or so years until Thomas, Alito, and Breyer resign/pass. Breyer is 82. If I'm a dem, I'm praying that the Georgia elections are going to come out with good results, otherwise I'm going to campaign so damn hard in 2022 to secure a majority and ask Breyer to slyly step down so Dems can fill the seat before we have another Justice Ginsburg situation. I hope she's looking down with a sly smile right now. | ||

This coming after Anderson Cooper referring to the president's press conference yesterday as watching an "obese turtle on his back, flailing in the hot sun" CNN has been on point lately Yeah but how would they know what an LSD trip is... :thinking: | ||

Amazingly Nevada will still not have all the votes in by tonight. I think my dead grandmother could do a better job. | ||

I have no clue at this point, not that I really care anymore. At this point my job is to just find some funny memes and shitposts, and the occasional real bit of news. | ||

If Trump had won we could expect DeVos' replacement for Trump's second term to be the Stoneman Douglas High School shooter. I'm a little concerned about what will happen to the DOD over the next couple of months judging from the news that Esper might be leaving shortly. | ||

These aren't even late arriving afaik, a bunch of them are election day provisional ballots--they're just really slow to count. Though tbh the networks should really just call Nevada; it's completely over and the only reason they aren't is that Arizona got called prematurely by Fox and AP and still isn't completely certain. | ||

Proud to have been of service. o7 We definitely must do this again for next time. We aggregated that stuff though. Bunch of people all scraping different sources and reposting what they thought relevant. | ||
