November 5th - Election Day

[Chester86]

May the Lord bless our country and have a revival that sweeps through our nation.  May we become a United America again and become One Nation Under God.  May the Lord be the one you turn to when making your decision on whom to vote for.  May the candidates who take office always consult the Lord before making decisions.  God bless America on this day of free elections.  

[CardinalBacker]

One thing is for certain… half of America is gonna be really upset when they finish counting the votes, regardless. 
 

I’m praying for peace.

I hope the stupid thing is over by Thanksgiving. I still have nightmares about 2000 and 2020.

I don’t want to harsh the vibe on Chester’s post, but how do y’all see this evening going?

Earlier I predicted that Kamala would have it wrapped up definitively tonight… I’m just not so sure anymore. It’s just too close.  Personally, I expect Trump to claim victory early, based on his campaign’s internal polling-before any of the news orgs call the race for anybody.

I’m also curious if he’ll ever concede, even if it becomes painfully obvious that she’s got it wrapped up.
 

 Lots of strange ways for it to go this time around.

I was thinking shortly after the polls closed on the west coast... before midnight, our time. By memory that's about the time that the media called it for Trump in '16.  

They never have ALL of the votes counted, but recognize when one candidate has an insurmountable lead and then call that state (or whole race) for the winner.  This one is going to be so close in the battlegrounds that I think they're going to count all of the votes before calling those states for either candidate.  All that to say, I doubt we have a new president called as victorious this evening.  I think the counting will go on for a day or so.  The good news is that there's not a mountain of mail-in ballots like there were in 2020.

The democrat voting process on display...nice!

[baddog]

70% of the country says we are heading the wrong direction. Record number of early voters. Does anyone with one functioning brain cell think these voters are rushing to vote for 4 more years of the same direction?

[AggiesAreWe]

I was not happy when I arrived to vote and looked on the ballot and there was no referendum to have the Sonic drive thru only for drinks and ice cream. I let those folks know how I felt about it and walked out. Stole one them stickers too before I left.

[Eazy]

I’m too stressed out to watch the news tonight.  This election shouldn’t be close.  I’m afraid the fix is in. 

[AggiesAreWe]

When the day started, Vegas had Trump at -155 to -170.

Trump is now at -255

[5GallonBucket]

I didn’t realize that Kennedy was still on the ballot.  What a joke.

Is that good or bad for him?

Good.

The - means he is the favorite to win.

I have a feeling you probably agree but I trust Vegas odds way more than any polls.
