Harris’s people are confident. The Trump campaign is panicking

God, I hope they know something we don’t. I feel like I’m gonna pass out. Or throw up.

      God, that would almost make the next 36 hours or so worth it.

      Almost.

      Anyone have any general anesthetic I can borrow?

        I’m going to bed here in Australia now, and will hopefully wake up to a harris win… Best of luck guys. The entire world is literally hoping for this (because another 4 years of racism, narcassism, BS and cult behavior is simply too much)…

          You definitely won’t wake up to a Harris win, unless you sleep for 24 hours or more. Voting is just about to start. Won’t end 'til tonight.

            Yeah unless it’s a landslide it probably won’t be called until the wee hours 11/6. We’re still a minimum of 18 hours before having a projected winner.

          Dude, we have court cases, officials failing to certify results, and another insurrection to get through before we know who will be president.

        36 hours?

        Uhhhh. Its like 1488 hours until January 6th, 2025, and I’m not even sure if all the issues will be resolved by then this time around. Even if Kamala wins.

        In a nightmare Year 2000-like scenario (aka: Hanging Chads deciding an election), it could be the middle of December before the Supreme Court handles a hypothetical case that comes up tomorrow night.

          It’s really fucking bizarre that it actually is the Nazi-est number hours imaginable between the election and final certification of the election. I legit thought you were just doing some Nazi dog whistle virtue signaling until I did the math to find that 1488 hours is 62 days, and we are in fact 62 days from January 6. 🤯

        I’m feeling so much stress over the election. I don’t even drink but I bought 2 beers today, maybe subconsciously I was looking for a way to decompress from the stress of the Election Day.

        In case anyone is concerned, it’s not an alcoholism thing. I just generally do not enjoy drinking alcohol.

        You can try to figure out how tenfingers combats link decay in this whitepaper

        Or figure out if Dr Pepper is a woman.

        Sorry I have no more brain treats atm.

      He doesn’t have all that long anyway, but I sure would love to see him spending lots of time in and out of court at a minimum. Going to prison would be fantastic. Honestly, I know the likelihood is nearly nil, but the American people really, really need to see a Republican finally pay for their crimes. Stone and Bannon are out of prison and they should both be rotting there.
