Edit First vote is in! Dixville Notch, New Hampshire!

Tie Vote 3-3!

https://www.cnn.com/2024/11/05/politics/dixville-notch-new-hampshire-2024-results/index.html

"Dixville Notch voters have supported the Democratic nominee the last two presidential elections, with the township in 2020 unanimously casting five votes for President Joe Biden and with Hillary Clinton in 2016 winning four of seven votes — two went to Trump and one to Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson."

This thread is for the Presidential election, my plan is to start marking wins as soon as they are called, sorted by time zone.

Some states are going to take longer than others. Polls generally close at 8 PM local time, but they can't start counting early/mail in votes until after the polls close.

Wisconsin in particular has an interesting system where ballots are collected by MUNICIPALITY, not precinct, they have over 1,800 ballot counting locations and don't report until ALL 1,800 are in.

Currently 232 EC votes from Blue States:

4+19+10+7+3+3+4+10+11 +4+14+28+4+3+13+54+12 +10+5+8+6

93 EC votes from Battleground States:

10+16+15+16+19+11+6

Which leaves 213 EC votes in Red States.

9+6+6+6+8+6+10+5+3+7 +3+40+30+11+8+17+9+11 +4+3+4+4+3

270 to Win.

Alright seppos time to get that vote out cunts.

[-] TransplantedSconie@lemm.ee 3 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

I did my part. You all need to get out and vote if you havent already.

I'm a little pissed off that our Election Officials were allowing Trump voters to wear hats and shirts while they were voting. But I guess they didn't want to chance the risk of these violent fuckers fucking up the voting.

[-] TransplantedSconie@lemm.ee 3 points 4 hours ago

Fucking Dixville. You guys had no problem voting for Biden, but half can't vote for the colored lady. That's a bridge too far.

[-] jordanlund@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

4 Republicans and 2 Undecideds.

[-] kescusay@lemmy.world 2 points 23 minutes ago

Wow. Actually, the fact that Harris won three from a crowd like that is pretty cool.

[-] TransplantedSconie@lemm.ee 2 points 3 hours ago

GröpenFührer said he's going to use the military against the US citizens.

That alone from all the crazy shit he's said should result in an immediate 6-0 vote for Harris.

[-] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

I’m working in a pretty much outside information-free environment until almost 11pm tonight. Really glad to not have a window seat to this rollercoaster. Cast my vote early, so my duty is done.

Thanks so much for doing this Jordan. You’re very appreciated!

Here we go! Last run through the polls before the election!

Arizona - Trump +1 to +5

Nevada - Trump +1 to +6

Georgia - Toss-Up - Trump +1 to +2
https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/polls/president-general/2024/georgia/

North Carolina - Trump +2 to +4
https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/polls/president-general/2024/north-carolina/

Pennsylvania - Toss-Up Harris +1/+2 to Trump +1/+2
https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/polls/president-general/2024/pennsylvania/

Michigan - Toss-Up Tie, Harris +1 to Trump +1/+2
https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/polls/president-general/2024/michigan/

Wisconsin - Toss-Up, Harris +1/+3 to Trump +1
https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/polls/president-general/2024/wisconsin/

Plotted on the map:

Advantage is with Trump in this scenario.

Assuming he takes Georgia, 2020 was an anomaly in my mind, GA has gone Republican in every other election since 1996, that gives Trump 264.

Which means if Harris loses ANY other state, she's done. She has to sweep PA, MI and WI to hit 274.

If the disaffected Arab vote in MI is enough to flip it, plus a Trump win in Georgia, that puts him at 279 to Harris 259. A scarily likely scenario.

[-] kescusay@lemmy.world 5 points 9 hours ago

Honestly, with all the news showing how poll herding has been happening, I think it's quite likely she sweeps the swing states. I'm less nervous now than I was a few days ago.

[-] return2ozma@lemmy.world 1 points 8 hours ago

My prediction is still Harris takes the popular vote, Trump the EC. I hate it here.

[-] jordanlund@lemmy.world 6 points 8 hours ago

Trump hasn't won a popular vote yet, so that's a good call!

[-] return2ozma@lemmy.world 0 points 6 hours ago
[-] jordanlund@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago

3 hours to the next. Gyam, Northern Mariana Islands, but no EC votes.

[-] TransplantedSconie@lemm.ee 3 points 12 hours ago

My favorite take on this comes from James Carville:

"I'm gonna sleep soundly tonight. Have a couple of bourbons, maybe a gummy or two, but yeah. Gonna sleep soundly tonight on her chances to win this thing."

[-] return2ozma@lemmy.world 3 points 13 hours ago

What a year it's been here in the politics channel. I'm still here. Exhausted.

[-] jordanlund@lemmy.world 3 points 12 hours ago
[-] return2ozma@lemmy.world 2 points 12 hours ago

I will be voting tomorrow in person at my polling place before work.

[-] jordanlund@lemmy.world 4 points 12 hours ago

Good for you! We just got the email at work "Hey, do your civic duty, if you need time off to vote, ask your manager."

Of course, I'm vote by mail, ballot's been in since 10/24.

[-] return2ozma@lemmy.world 1 points 10 hours ago

Harris rally live with Oprah and Lady Gaga https://www.youtube.com/live/HUbZ1vD9ChY

[-] Rapidcreek@lemmy.world 5 points 14 hours ago

When you should know

"Near-complete election results are expected from Georgia, North Carolina and Michigan on Tuesday night, but only partial results from Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Arizona, Harris-Walz campaign chair Jen O’Malley Dillon told reporters in a Monday afternoon briefing,” the Wall Street Journal reports.

“Dillon predicted additional results from Wisconsin and Pennsylvania will be available earlier in the day Wednesday, with Arizona and Nevada trickling in the rest of the week.”

Said Dillon: “We’re going to continue to see new votes being reported for many days after Election Day. We believe this race is going to be incredibly close, so we may not know the results of this election for several days.”

Any predictions on what musk / xitter's role in all this will be?

They can basically call states for republicans early.

[-] jordanlund@lemmy.world 2 points 13 hours ago

Musk will likely be promoting anything claiming a Trump win, but I don't think X has their own election coverage, do they?

That's kind of what I mean. They don't have their own formal coverage, but they can manipulate the prevalence of different narratives.

If officials refuse to certify whatever states, having the perceived support of the public can make all the difference.

[-] kescusay@lemmy.world 17 points 1 day ago

Just listened to Selzer break down her methodology in clear, simple terms. I'm starting to think the polling error this cycle is pretty big, and Harris is going to win handily.

I've been thinking about this too.

I've heard a lot of commentary about how polling has addressed the shortcomings of recent election cycles and that its more or less all fixed now. I do wonder though, there seems to be a heap of things that are very difficult to account for.

For example, who's actually going to vote vs just intending to vote. For example the garbage thing has motivated a lot of people to get it done.

Another is the late break. I think for a lot of people that just don't pay attention to politics, if you ask them 2 weeks ago they just haven't really thought about it - their answers are precooked from last cycle. As the big day comes around and people think about candidates, lots of traditional republicans voters will make a different choice.

Also just generally with polls is the type of person that actually completes polls. Most people ain't got time for that.

Of course I understand pollsters try to control for these things but as these problems stack up its easy to see how there can be some surprises.

[-] jordanlund@lemmy.world 9 points 20 hours ago

God I hope so... The #1 problem with polling has been trying to determine who is or is not a "likely voter".

We're seeing that in PA. 22 recent polls, 18 "Likely Voter" polls, meanwhile 100,000 new voters casting ballots early. New voters aren't counted as "likely".

[-] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 4 points 18 hours ago

Appreciate you putting this together!

[-] fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.com 5 points 23 hours ago

Would be helpful if the megapost showed the current overall standing. Or am I missing something?

[-] jordanlund@lemmy.world 7 points 20 hours ago

Yup, that's the plan once results start rolling in tomorrow! I just wanted to have all the structure in place first!

[-] fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.com 2 points 17 hours ago
[-] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 43 points 1 day ago

Texas waited until the 29th of October to mail out my ballot. As of today (November 3rd), I have yet to receive it. I fully expect Texas to fuck me over.

[-] aaron@lemm.ee 12 points 1 day ago

Everything is rigger in Texas

[-] jordanlund@lemmy.world 29 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

That's crazy late to mail it OUT. Too late even to mail it back. You'll have to either find a drop box or hand deliver it to county elections HQ.

If you don't get it in time, you can always vote in person.

[-] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 14 points 1 day ago

I can't because I am currently out of state. I believe the cutoff is the post mark date. Still, if it doesn't arrive tomorrow, they fucked me...and my wife.
