So voter turnout was actually low?

I haven't seen the numbers but someone told me Kamala and Trump drew fewer voters than in 2020 during COVID. Seems hard to believe. Did I hear incorrectly?

Congrats! You're gonna lose your Social Security, but at least you helped Elon Musk add another $100 billion to his fortune.

A quarter trillion spent on the Ukraine war, and nothing to show for except for a half million new graves.

It's low compared to 2020, but 2020 was super high. Seems like this one is more in line with a typical Presidential year.

Sad thread. Zero introspection or self-reflection. Scorched earth as usual. And then they wonder why we are so polarized.

Don't forget the $75 BILLION in TARIFFS that will cost the average American family $2,500 a year.

As of maybe an hour ago Trump had 1M fewer votes than 2020 as of a few hours ago Harris had @14M fewer votes than 2020 Biden.

I like that guy. He speaks rapidly like Vivek Ramaswamy but, unlike Ramaswamy, he is not criminally insane.

sorry if this was already mentioned, above, but fwiw the house still turns blue iff at least six of the remaining R leading races go BLUE instead. for the most frequently updated standings see the allegedly free to all nytimes tracker below..

"People are gonna die." Quite the analysis. His schtick is clearly putting a redneck facade on authoritarian leftist propaganda so that authoritarian leftists can say to themselves, "I'm so virtuous, I can even find common cause with a redneck."

Bernie Sanders blasts the Dem party for abandoning the worker class.

(As if Trump embraced them, does anything for them, other than deceive them. Pfft.)

Why was 2020 super high? With this election being so
close you would think turnout would be higher than average. Why did so many stay home this time?

I'm more worried that we're paying a Trillion in interest payments on our 35 Trillion in debt.
