2024 U.S. Presidential General Election Thread

[Piff Perkins]

We've had historic turnout in elections from 2018-2023 but I'm supposed to believe it's going to nose dive for a general election in November? Yea ok.

Stop letting people who tuned out of the political process years ago tell you shyt. Normal people are going to vote, and I suspect Biden will win.

Black turnout has been terrible since 2020.


Biden needs strong Black turnout to win and that's not happening.

Youth Voting has been increasing because of Social Media like Twitter and TikTok, a good reason why Obama won in 2008. Abortion is the key issue this election cycle, and Gen Z is right now about 70% Left-leaning, a bigger percentage than other Generations.

Youth and Black Vote are what going keep Biden in office.

You mean the youth that is protesting the ban of tiktok that Biden signed into law? Or the same youth that is protesting Biden's steadfast support of Israel's genocide? That youth? The ones that don't vote in most elections? Gen Z ain't playing.

And with all their help last election Biden barely won.

Biden really blew his foot off with a shotgun and his entire administration is out of touch. Gen Z ain't voting for Trump but a lot will stay home this election.

Biden needs to reverse course now or dropout.

The amount of hot takes in the past couple pages is impressive, even by HL Allstars standards. Guess it's already over in April, might as well pack it up Joe

I'd look at the actual results from the primary over what a poll says. Biden got more votes than Trump in WI and significantly more in PA.

i think polling is trash, but you'd think biden would at least be winning some of them

I still very much disagree with Gen Z staying home. They are hyper-informed more than you would think. This TikTok ban is nothing burger, because TikTok is going to challenge this lawsuit by delaying the shyt out of it because of 1st Amendment Privileges.

Plus the core key issue they know very much off, including Midterms, is the Republican plans to institute a plan of a Christian National state... which means not only a Federal Ban on Abortion, but also anything pertaining to/prohibiting sex and/or sexual content... which means Birth Control Pills, Condoms, Pornography, Reduction of Sexual Health Classes in High School, Etc.

They may hate Biden, but they are aware of the danger of a Trump Presidency.

Wheter polling is wrong or not it is weird that Biden was surging and all of a sudden the past week or two every poll is bad for him

I hope you guys are right about it being BS but it’s a bit worrying that after his short surge he’s plummeting again everywhere

yeah I get polls aren’t end all be all and they missed a lot of stuff since 2016 but to act like none of these polls have been accurate at all about elections since then is not correct

Some of these polls will be accurate and just about all of them has Biden currently losing so I think it’s naive to think he isn’t in trouble at all

What exactly does he need to do? Besides having a spine when it comes to Israel of course.

It seems no matter what good he does it'll be muffled by the right wing media echo chamber. Plus his PR campaign is terrible. No matter what good he does many Americans will be compeletly oblivious of it. Even his tweets barely get above 10k likes.

Part of the reason for this is because he's frankly too old to be charismatic. If Biden was a late 40s charismatic dude that was giving nationally televised speaking events twice a week his perception would be different. It doesn't help that Kamala Harris is not likable to all either.


But to answer your question Biden needs to stop this Palestine shyt and do something to energize Black voters. He needs to sign the reparations Taskforce executive order.

And with all their help last election Biden barely won.

Biden won the electoral college 306 - 232 & the popular vote by 7 million. It wasn't even close.

How did he barely win? Because Trump said it was stolen?

Biden detractors be saying sh1t just to say sh1t

He only won by 44,000 votes between 3 states. Arizona, Georgia and Wisconsin. If Trump won those 3 states he would have won re-election on a 269-269 tie.

Biden winning GA is now a sign of weakness?

As far as Arizona goes, they have a massive problem in Kari Lake, along with Arizona GOP being completely bankrupt; thats why they need to tighten up the bootstraps and donate more to Trump's legal funds.
