2024 U.S. Presidential Election Thread

I think turnout will be good.

The election is a “thing” in popular culture, more so this year than ever before.

Turnout had been trending up. There’s no reason to believe that trend stops with this election. People are tuned in.

I agree, I'm honestly not worried about it. Obviously it will not be like 2020, but I believe it will be good.

The only thing that gives me a bit of concern is that i was 100% certain there was no way trump would win the 2016 election,

White folks are unpredictable

I think he's alienated too many different voting blocks imo.

They aren't unpredictable.

Whites overwhelmingly vote Republican. It's really just going to be what percentage of white women break for Kamala. That is the number to watch.

This CBS poll also has Kamala getting 43% of White voters, which is what Obama got in 2008, and 63% of Latino voters (a few points higher than what Biden got in 2020). Yet, they only have her up 3% nationally. Yeah, things don't add up.

It is what it is. I don't care about polls. Election Day can't come soon enough.

Hence my issue with the polls all year, even ones where she's leading. If Harris gets 43% of the white vote she stomps Trump at near Obama levels.

Why would you release this? This doesn’t make the Republicans look good. Also, AR = Arizona
