2024 United States Presidential Election Megathread

[Numpsay]

It’s all of NV so far. Same as all the other early votes. GOP has literally never led. You know more about NV than Jon Ralston?

How do you know who is leading?

But let's ignore the below tweet because WSJ is telling you Trump will win the popular vote, something we know ain't happening. That poll should have immediately been tossed out based on that fact alone

 

[Damnshow]

Republican news media is saying trump is leading the votes? Dayum!

 

[LeVraiPapi]

So you have a strong opinion but not betting it. Makes sense

I already placed my bet on BETus. Kamala is narrowing the lead actually and some NPAs are leaning Kamala it seems too.

I swear to fukking goodness

It's happening

USPS blue collection box damaged by fire overnight in Phoenix

It’s unclear if any mail-in ballots were burned.

Mail-in/Drop-off ballots come in big green envelopes. This is why I always drop my ballots off at City Hall where they have security guarding the box.

thats the interesting thing about voter suppression man.

in carolina in 2020 you just had to fill the thing out.

in 2024 suddenly you have to provide a photocopy of your id, have it notarized or signed by two witnesses, and then put your own stamp on it to vote.

ridiculous. we ended up just early voting in person.

A Black farmers group endorsed Harris. That could give her a serious boost in rural areas.

The National Black Farmers Association endorsed the vice president's campaign, boosting her rural outreach with a potentially powerful voting bloc.

By Ja'han Jones

Vice President Kamala Harris received a big boost with rural voters on Tuesday thanks to an endorsement from the National Black Farmers Association and its president, John Boyd.

In a statement, Boyd said Harris "has the vision to recognize the need to invest in agriculture and land ownership, new loan programs and credits, to make it easier to start and run a farm in the U.S.”



Black farmers, a group historically kneecapped by discriminatory policies, are acutely aware of the setbacks a second Donald Trump term could inflict on Black people, and the obstacles his first term created for Black businesses in particular.

In 2021, as part of a more than trillion-dollar coronavirus relief bill, Congress authorized $5 billion in debt relief and other aid to minority farmers who had faced discrimination. This could have been a partial but important step toward recompense for years of deliberate, government-enabled harm. But that program has been held up in court due to various lawsuits — at least one of which is backed by Trump adviser Stephen Miller, who espoused white nationalist ideas in leaked emails — alleging the aid amounts to anti-white racism.

Miller is on a legal crusade to end both private and public programs designed to promote diversity and give aid to women and nonwhite people. And Trump seems to be on the same page, given his vow to crack down on “anti-white feeling” if he’s elected president again.

Congress ultimately altered the law to broaden the group of people who could apply for the aid, and although Boyd has said he’s glad some of the aid has been able to reach Black farmers, he’s been outspoken in fighting for the debt relief originally promised and is actively suing the federal government to receive it. The fact Boyd is backing the Harris-Walz campaign shows he knows MAGA racism has been the biggest impediment to Black farmers like him receiving much-needed — and much-deserved — assistance.

With Election Day approaching, the Harris-Walz campaign has made a point of platforming and mobilizing Black farmers. Aside from moral reasons, there are some clear political ones, too. Census data from 2022 showed there are more than 46,000 Black farmers in the U.S., the majority of whom are concentrated in Southern states Democrats are targeting — such as Texas, Georgia, Florida, North Carolina and Virginia.

In a race that could come down to a few thousand votes in just a few states, Black farmers such as Boyd and the Black Farmers Association could play a key role. They may prove to be a key voting bloc, and they’re also valuable-yet-informal spokespeople for the campaign. They could help mobilize Team Harris' rural backers. And they can also undercut Trump's claims, made to Black people in particular, that he's a pro-business candidate.

Its gonna be another al gore vs bush 2000 situation where they really steal the election from trump and give it to kamala. All hells going to break loose after that

Madam President Harris. Learn to love it like you love taking it up the ass like a good little gimp.

 

[beenz]

Republican news media is saying trump is leading the votes? Dayum!

the MASSIVE early voter turnout contradicts this theory as the vast majority of early voters are left leaning.

 

[beenz]

like other's have said, the WSJ is owned by newscorp AKA fox news/rupert murdoch. I'm not trusting anything that propaganda machine is putting out related to politics.

 

[IIVI]

It's all about the swing voters and no fukking way in 2024 are swing voters going with Trump

Expecting a record turnout as has been reported and there's already been a record number of early votes.

Put two and two together. Trump is donezo.

shyt, people already talking about what she's about to do.

Only a matter of time until she's made official.

It took a quick Google search to find out that the “undecided voters” interviewed right now on CNN are a real estate agent who only follows Trump family, a “pro-life” radio host who interviews people on politics for a living and a Canadian-American actress, to name a few.

Looks like it was more of a casting than a “vetting” process.

Ultimately polls, focus groups, political pundits, media commentators should be ignored.

Each of us has a vote. Don’t be distracted by the sideshow.

Vote against fascism. Vote for Harris-Walz

And, if there are any undecided around in your sphere of influence, encourage them to vote against fascism too.

I’m not surprised. @CNN is the new @FoxNews. It’s giving a wolf in sheep’s clothing.

@TheAngrySwamy
Too many folks at CNN and MSNBC (looking at you @alexwagner @alexwagner ) are doing these “undecided” voter events without being transparent about selection criteria, and how big a proportion of the electorate is this way. At my house, come dinner time, undecided goes hungry!



28/31
@Jacksons_Dad
"Undecided voters" in general are how journalists push their own narrative without leaving fingerprints, so in an election where there are almost none to be found, journalists have to make them up.



29/31
@michfisher
“Undecided” in media-speak means Republican. Always. Every time.

Good grief! Their reputation is garbage as it is, and they pull this stunt knowing they will be exposed?

@karenlynchkaren
Shocking. (Not shocking.) I don’t watch @cnn @CNNPolitics anymore for this, and other reasons. Other includes Jake, Dana, Anderson …who I used to like a lot… and until they fire @ScottJenningsKY, it’s a NO.

[Absolut]

I already placed my bet on BETus. Kamala is narrowing the lead actually and some NPAs are leaning Kamala it seems too.

Fair enough. I had a big Harris position in NV but the early returns have caused me to lay some off. She might have to win indies at a record clip

 

[Unbothered]

Country on the line - and they have Kamala taking the last shot

This is like Dennis Schroeder calling the game

Well with all due respect to Dennis, he did hit the decisive 3 in a Play-in game a few years ago for my Lakers...

 

[Samori Toure]

It’s exclusive because they made it up

Exactly. Trump does not have the lead nationally in any poll that I have seen. In fact he is behind in 4 of the 6 battleground States hat he needs. The WSJ and Fox are shameless.
