Thanks. I'm west coast. 30min from this posting. If Dems win at least I can smile a bit today, in the face of all things Trumpian.

Pompeo as Secretary Of State...... The more that sinks in the more depressed I am.

yeah, so voting closes at 5pm your time, not sure when the election will be called but while on a normal situation i’d give it till next day here a recount is likely to be demanded no matter what, considering the current climate.

as for the pompeo-induced depression, you’re lucky to be north of the border. then again you’re also part of NORAD so ayayay. yeah. depressing.

I feel like hibernating. Wake me up when he loses the 2020 election (fingers crossed) or the golden shower tape is released, whichever comes first.

as of right now democrat ahead in the penn pols by 7000 votes per washington post

5 min ago wapo updated saccone closing gap

I honestly don't even think a golden shower vid would make a big difference. Access Hollywood did fuck all.

correct

not with his base anyway

I'm amazed at how often the vote is so near 50/50. So perfectly divided!! How did that happen?

google "yancey simmonds virginia" for a look at the craziest electoral rollercoaster of late

Its our system of checks and balances in action!

tesla, I believe you are pro-Trump. Are you surprised/disappointed that this is a nail biter?

Pence would do all sorts of shitty things, but he'd do it legally. He actually has respect for basic democratic institutions.

Whack-job right-winger vs. authoritarian wannabe. I'll take the whack job. Sucks, but that's where we're at.



Sitting out the midterms? Pussy.

Anyway, 2020 is the Dem's to lose. They probably will. So pack Congress and the states with good people while you can.

Lamb claims victory, GOP not conceding, according to what I'm reading this am.

Even if Lamb ends up losing somehow, it feels like a win. Y'know?

Anything can happen before November. I try to bear that in mind. But I'm pretty sure the 2018 bloodbath has begun.

I think Penice would be much worse than Trump. He has all of the same bad policy positions, then adds religious intolerance and extreme xenophobia to the repulsive mix.

ebola has a point about the destruction of fundamental institutions though. a benevolent tyrant is still a tyrant

Jeez, she's VILE! What a horrible choice. Should be under threat of arrest by Interpol

so lamb won in pa but saccone refuses to concede last i read

looks like the shit will be ongoing

I read that and I think "She's right." Does that make me a bad person? Where is she wrong?

I thought the article took some liberties with conclusions about what she said. I'll do more reading. Of course I don't think Hilary Clinton is perfect, but I've never understood the amount of hate she gets.
