(false alarm, one more thought before I conk out)
Trump's superpower is to trigger, annoy, and enrage us... Spefically us: the marginalized, queer, educated, and empathetic.
His followers love him for this superpower and will be avidly seeking to feed off you today.
Don't let them feed on you. Don't give them an inch of space, a second of time, a speck of attention.
Deny your predators.
Our neighbors chose this moron and morally empty man to lead this country. When those people no longer have healthcare and they've crashed the economy, and given Putin unfettered access to Ukraine and westward and their daughters die from miscarriages then maybe they'll regret their choice. I doubt it though, their cult-like smugness will comfort them and they'll blame someone else.
I'm so sorry Ukraine.
I'm so sorry to those nations we've called NATO Allies.
I'm so sorry to those of you that came to this country to escape hell holes.
I'm so sorry to my LGBTQ friends.
I'm so sorry Ben Franklin, it was good while it lasted.
Hate has won. My neighbors' hate has made this choice.

Do NOT panic during this first part of the evening.
Rural counties report first because they have fewer votes to count -- tends to result in Republicans coming out to early leads.
Democratic count tends to come in later in the evening.
Keep Kamala and carry on a la.

Okay, this is why I don't trust the MSM: I'm checking results in the AP website, and they've called Indiana for Trump with 14% of the vote counted, Kentucky for Trump with 8% of the vote counted, and Vermont for Harris with 0% of the vote counted. I know they're relying on exit polls, but people lie. While they probably are right, this rush for instant gratification can easily produce misleading results. It's going to be a long night, and that's as it should be.
Andy Kim D-NJ has won his Senate race. Andy was the congressman that cleaned up the Capital rotunda the morning after January 6th insurrection. Good man.

RT if you’ll get to tell your kids & grandkids that you voted against Donald Trump 3 times.
So we're exiting the polling place in suburban Philadelphia and some clown walks by us towards check in with this shirt on. I am so weary with their smug crap.

Colorado voters are not turning out. The article says it might be that people think the state is firmly blue, and they don't need to.
To that I say:
Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice!
Remember that? Remember who got elected here?
VOTE!
This was a photo I took on January 21, 2017. I've thought back to that day frequently over the past few weeks. When we marched that day we had no idea what the future would hold. Great worry begat great community. It's time to erase January 20th, 2017 from our nation's history.
Vote.

This is murder in my book, and this must end. The only way it ends is if we deny Trump power and purge our government of the GOP. Roevember 5th is coming.
