Had to go home and dig to the bottom of my shred pile to find it, got back and had to cast a provisional ballot anyway. So much for voting on election day! My procedure is that if you got an absentee ballot or requested it, our system flags it immediately and we call city hall to invalidate your old one. Then, you get issued a new one once city hall spoils your mailed one. We need a simple affidavit and you're done! 20-ish of 295 so far had to do that, with 15ish that brought in their old one. My guess is that it was Donnie's bullshit doing its work, so people were like gently caress THIS, I WANNA FEED THE MACHINE MY BALLOT.

I know he probably wouldn’t get charged, but him getting interviewed would probably loosen his bowels just a little bit, and it would be a good start. It was just her, so the guy wasn't there or anything.

Yeah, but I figure you could provide her contact info..., but it depends on how your states vote or intimidation laws work. Regardless I think lying to someone to discourage them from voting should at some level be a criminal offense. Oh also America https://twitter.com/davidsilkenat/status/1323549318947721217?s=21

And here comes the 3D Chess... https://twitter.com/MollyJongFast/status/1323623688508481536 ...in which, if he loses, he's going to torpedo FOX News bigly, like nobody's ever seen, so that his followers will flock to OANN when he buys it.

Yeah, I wasn't planning on staying up through the night to watch the polls close, I figured maybe there'd be results from early voting that could be available before polls close, but I guess I'm just gonna have some more beers, clean my apartment, and then watch this poo poo unfold as I get up at 5 in the morning.

I don't think I even have OANN on my cable (I do get Newsmax), but it's already been indicated he wants to buy it. I could totally see him going full Jeff Sessions on FOX, launching Big Orange Daddy Network featuring OANN (to keep the brand identity and justify the batshit programming they run), hosting his own show supplemented with shows staffed by cherry-picking his favorite/most loyal hosts to defect (Ingraham, Tucker, Hannity, maybe some of the tools on The Five like Gutfeld) and leaving FOX for dead after they've spent four years being his Pravda. Of course, it'll probably also have its share of Apprentice reruns, too.

It and a ton of other propaganda stream free 24/7 on pluto.tv, which is helpfully baked right in to most new TVs.

I do recall in the lead-up to the 2016 election, when he was expecting to lose to Hilary, there were plans to start a network of his own. It wouldn't surprise me at all if this is what he does if (hopefully) Biden wins.

That sounds like it would take a lot or at least some effort I’m thinking he’ll just have someone put his name on a podcast network with Dan Bongino

I've blocked oann and newsmax at my parents' house after i caught my dad watching oann one afternoon. He at picked up on the bias immediately. They both voted for Bernie in 2016 at least. https://twitter.com/SeanTrende/status/1323460096811302912?s=20 Brute Squad fucked around with this message at 18:14 on Nov 3, 2020 |

Was just watching CNN while I ate my lunch. Trump was speaking in Arlington at the RNC. He was noticeably more calm and lucid, letting on it was a close race and that the thought of losing was difficult on him. He talked about all just accomplishments and threw in a China virus for good measure. It was surprisingly timid given they’ve been saying he was going to declare victory early.

ARD/ZDF have an election special starting shortly after midnight at 0:10 or something like that, and polls close at 4 o'clock if I understand correctly.

He was also whining about it being unfair that they'll keep counting past midnight tonight. He reminds me of the kid that fakes an injury till you give him the ball back, then sits down and cries till you do it again.

Is there a German word for a combination of anxiety, excitement, and preemptive disappointment? Because that's what I'm feeling right now.

We don't have a word for the emotion, but the medical term for said combination of symptoms is "Formloser Stuhl". I've slammed a pound of jerky on the dehydrator while attending a rather exhilarating (and confusing) stream session on discord, and I'll bid you all good evening. I'll see y'all on the other side in 8 hours.

Jaguars! posted:Best of luck for your election, please stay safe and unceremoniously turf that sack of poo poo out The November surprise is that there are no real problems. As it turns out, when city/county clerks are left to do their thing properly, the actual election machinery becomes incredibly boring and functions fine. The worst you'll get is a line, and the line is drastically smaller compared to the past due to absentee/early voting. Chucklefucks either decide to not show up, or the precleared chucklefucks get incredibly bored at looking at nothing inside the polling places. All you ever hear is that the election workers are "nice and helpful" and poo poo just rolls by smooth, with some goofy/minor problems.
