Despite all the doom scrolling, Harris has a comfortable lead in the electoral college right now.

The time for vibing is over. It’s too late to change anyone’s opinions (especially because national level events like debates are over). Harris will finish her Media Blitz soon (including a Fox News showing) while Trump retreats into his shell hoping no one notices how damn stupid his mouth is.

This is the time for doing. The focus should be on voter drives and other get out the vote pushes. It’s mid October, and the October surprises are against Trump and in our favor.

It’s not the lead we wanted but it’s a lead nonetheless. Don’t talk yourself out of believing this lead because of a bad poll or two.

        Well I vote by mail and live abroad - my ballot needed time to get to me and then get back to my city clerk.

      I’ve decided not to vote at all in this US election. I know my vote won’t do anything on account of being Canadian.

        Fair enough, I’m a US/Canadian dualie… our struggle is still coming up. Let’s hope we can keep PP out of Ottawa.

          Fuck, I can only hope. People seem to hate Trudeau so much there’s a serious risk of Milhouse winning.

      I’m registered and raring to go. I even have the day off, so I’m going. (I’ve voted in every single election)

      Don’t vote? Then you don’t get to complain or criticize.

        But like, actually do. Because there are a shitload of elections and state + local really matters too.

          The fascists must be defeated at every level. It’s like treating cancer. The problem is not over before it’s all gone. And even then there’s a risk of it returning.

          Yep. Virginia has it’s statewide position elections on the odd years. So it’s congressional and governor elections tend to have fewer people vote. However, the Dems have gotten wise and have managed to turn out more during these elections.
