Here's a puzzler.... Trump actually got fewer votes in 2024 than in 2020 (72.6 million vs 74.2 million) Harris got 67.9 Million in 2024 vs Biden at 81.2 million in 2020. That's 13 million Dem votes missing. That's lighting the conspiracy theorists on fire. But it's only really being discussed on "unapproved sources". Me? I'm just glad the RNC hired thousands of roving attorneys and enlisted over a hundred thousand poll watchers. Nobody's going to convince me that 15 million fewer real, legal voters showed up or mailed in in 2024 than in 2020 (during the social distancing pandemic). Edit: Of course, we'll see as the final tallies trickle in. But it doesn't look like enough to square things off.

"Move to Canada" is surging on Google. I don't have the heart to tell them... Of course, I do follow Viva Frei and Pollievre...

If I was Trump, I'd take a long nap. He's earned it.

My view also. Although those who misused their power should be held to account. That's the problem. If only one side does it, and they don't get slapped for it (and bigly), they'll do it again next chance they get. And again. There need to be consequences.

Plus, I don't think they carried 85" big screens during the last round. It's about time for an upgrade.

They're too arrogant to leave such important decisions to the voters. They know what's best for us, after all. I'm still forecasting dirty tricks before Inauguration day.

Yes we are. She's just not the one. They should have drafted Big Mike. Or gotten Condie Rice to switch sides, if it had to be a woman of color.

51 of them, at least.

There's a few of them that need to be there. The rest need to be home with loved ones. The sooner, the better.

Almost feels like we should do a GoFundMe to buy some meds for our lefty friends here on AN. I'd hate to lose some of them to the syndrome.

There's a sentencing hearing on Nov 26. No telling what they'll do... We're in uncharted waters, and I wouldn't put anything past them, or below them. If When there are riots, count on the usual suspects to stump for bail. Like they did during the Summer of Love (and mostly peaceful arson and looting).

The guy who cut staff at Twitter by 80% and still made it a better platform than it was?

That would be enough for me to keep my kids as far away from that organization as I could.

Before or after the lawfare dirty tricks are used up? I don't believe for a minute that the Dem Elite will let this stand. And they better hurry, because they're losing the Senate. So no hijinks after Inauguration without turning a lot of RINOs.

With those crazy eyes, there may be a future for her in the US Congress.

Yeah. The lefties will be out looting and burning and scoring big screen TVs, any minute now. Like they did after HRC got handed the L. But probably an order of magnitude worse. "The syndrome" hadn't hit yet in 2016.

Down ballot voting isn't too ginger peachy keen for the left. From the AP. Here's the link, but it's reatime so may change... https://apnews.com/live/senate-house-election-updates-11-5-2024#00000192-ff6b-df8c-a7fb-ff6b46690000

They know him best... And a bad decision when they see one. Should'a gone with Shapiro. Edit: AP's calling MN Blue. But she still should have gone with Shapiro...

And he was prescient about "the syndrome". "You can't argue with a sick mind."

Speaking of fraud, they tried to do it again... “Early this morning we learned that Republican poll watchers in Philadelphia, York, Westmoreland, Allegheny, Lehigh, Cambria, Wyoming, and Lackawanna Counties were being turned away,” RNC Chair Michael Whatley posted on X. “We deployed our roving attorneys, engaged with local officials, and can now report that all Republican poll watchers have been let into the building,” he wrote. Kudos to the RNC for being ready this time... https://www.westernjournal.com/republican-election-attorneys-score-early-morning-victory-pennsylvania-report/ https://www.rt.com/news/606985-trump-harris-election-live/ (14:23 GMT update)

Careful... That toad'll get you while you're dealing with the snek.

Today's update: Truth Social is a 3 years old tech startup. It’s worth $5.4 billion. If you (a venture capitalist) had done a $1m on $10m post seed round, you would be sitting on $500m+ in gains and a 714% IRR. This is why VCs should NEVER pass on founders based on political views. — John Coogan DJT’s shares skyrocketed over 200% in October, The New York Post reported. https://dailycaller.com/2024/11/04/truth-social-donald-trump-stock-election-day-net-worth/

In 2020, all 5 voted Biden. Now it's tied at 3 each. Not looking good for Team Harris. https://edition.cnn.com/2020/11/02/politics/dixville-notch-2020-results/index.html

I remember within my voting lifetime when candidates were dropping out of races if they had illegal nannies or other employees in their past. Back then, there were real consequences for hiring illegals. I miss those days...

Musk having probably the most extensive intelligence network beside the FSB, the CIA and Mossad (and maybe the Zuck), I know who I'd bet on in a fact checking contest.
