2024 Election POST MORTEM

Ive always wondered what its like to be an emotionless robot

Nothing, and I mean nothing, tilts me more than interviews with minority voters who vote for Republicans.

Voted something else.

At work, but I’m not going to be able to focus on anything productive. Taking tomorrow off.

That sample size is incredibly small though - assuming you only count competitive races

Have to say, as much as I am a pessimist with this all the recent spat of poll podcasts I’ve listened to have injected a tiny bit of hopium into my veins.

I’m gonna try to stay up all night waiting for the CA popular vote flip unless it really is a landslide

It’s hard to fight culture with facts and reason. It’s a cultural belief for most Americans that Republicans are better for the economy and Dems intentionally damaged the economy in exchange for some social handout. This is the starting point that Dems have to argue from because if they try to start from “actually we’re better for the economy” people won’t believe them, full stop, and they waste a bunch of energy trying to reason people away from what is basically a religious belief.

The education system deserves some blame for this. I was taught in high school that lower taxes and less regulations = better for traditional economic metrics like GDP and unemployment. What they fail to teach is that runaway capitalism = poisoned air and water and barely functional public infrastructure.

Came to the office early today so I’ll be able to go home early and still have to wait a few hours for any results. It’s times like this when I wish I lived on the West Coast.

The amount of crying foul that the right will do when and if Kamala ships this is going to be bordering on unbearable.

To date the only time I have voted (this includes several elections in Central Ohio) where there was a meaningful wait was in 2008 (in Brooklyn). Same year people I knew in Franklin County also reported that lines were much longer than before or since (excepting this year).

Nah.

I’m going to lick up those tears Eric Cartman/Scott Tenorman style.

Good luck today lads. I’m away to watch Nick Cave, which will hopefully not be my most uplifting experience of the next 24 hours
