      That total from fivethirtyeight excludes “don’t knows”. It’s a projected vote share from polling results.

      It’s a general mistake to exclude them most of the time.

      In 2016

      Clinton got 29.0% Trump got 27.7%

      29.9% of the electorate didn’t vote for either of them.

      First past the post is awful. The electoral college is awful.

      We’ve invented a form of democracy where negative campaigning works better than positive. You get to pick the second worst option, that’s it

      But genuinely we know that in 2024 picking the second worst option is really important.

        Yes this is the thing that has to change to save the US from collapse I think. Second after keeping orange man out of power.

        I’m an outside observer though.
