We lost this because Biden declared he was the only one able to defeat Trump and he was running for re-election.
A true primary campaign with Harris, buttigieg and what ever other candidate wanted to take a shot would have introduced candidates to America and let them decide who to support.
We were denied that.
I saw some surveys just before Biden dropped out. Chances of winning for Harris and other potential candidates was around 45-50%. Chance for Michelle was something like 75%. Too bad she wouldn't run.
The last remaining question is what will Trump be sentenced to in the NY convictions. That should be coming up soon.
I went outside to deal with fallen leaves for a bit earlier today.
We've considered Mexico even though non of us speak Spanish. There's an app for that right?
Racism and too indifferent to even bother voting.
Still in disbelief. My 40 year old daughter with two daughters of her own asked me if the whole family was moving to Mexico.
Democrats lost this election when Biden decided to run again. No one campaigned against him and it turns out he was too old to get to election day.
Harris didn't develop a campaign platform, she was just supporting Joe's platform. 107 days before the election she was handed a presidential campaign and told good luck.
Harris didn't lose this race, Biden and the DNC lost it.
#politics Will be looking at my fellow Americans differently starting today. The majority of this country are racist, misogynists, anti-women citizens not to be trusted.
Got a spare bedroom I can borrow? π
Annual checkup for pup went okish. We already knew the vet we were supposed to see broke her back falling of a horse. Today we learned the sr vet passed away late July. We were seen by a retired vet who was the first one to see Izzy when we got her. π
Also need a crown, which insurance only pays half.
The election results better be better than how my election day is going.
We need the blue wall to hold, everything else is just gravy. Iowa could turn blue. Arizona and Georgia are in play.
My brother texted me during the Chiefs game. He says the election will be a blowout for Harris. In addition to the blue wall, also NC and maybe Florida.
He's just a guy, doesn't work in politics.
I'm watching horror movies, less scary than election stuff. π
My pulse has been running in upper 70s to low 80s all day instead of 60s. What, me worry?
The jist of the plan that I saw was they plan to stop the states from certifying the election. The EC count in DC will be the states that actually certified the election but not all states. Their thinking is trump will have the majority of they stop short of all states.
I also try to avoid the network "experts". Their whole purpose is to generate an emotional response. Just the numbers please, I can do my own analysis.
I plan to have national results open on a tablet that I can glance at once in a while. Will look more Wednesday morning.
