[Gethelred]

The race is run, the winner declared!

For further discussion of the election:

USA - 2024 US Presidential Election: Trump vs Harris (pt II)

I will be keen to watch the handover on J6 I think, Will the Bidens attend unlike Trump? Will the crowd be the biggest in history, Will there be a magical Mystery victory tour and rallies like 2016, Will he reduce his golf games and stop heading North in the Summer or home to Fl in the winter...

How good is it to rock up to your local primary school, grab a democracy sausage, see the Lib and Labor volunteers chatting to each other while you ignore their how to vote cards, jot down your vote before wandering home to settle in with Antony Green on the ABC.

Yanks be crazy.

US elections make you grateful for AUS elections

How is this a close thing all the numbers I see is heavily favouring Trump

 

[Aristotle Pickett]

Not a great result in Georgia for Harris

I want it to be so, but Lol. Way to early.

Because that is always how US elections trend early.

I would have just said "Okay bye" if my partner was telling me she'd break up with me for whether I voted or not.

Women who threaten breakup as a persuasive tactic are bad news. Same goes for men of course.

Is she hot? Are you batting above your weight?

Largely Republican polls been counted. The swings will come mate.

Early pick for worst post of the day?

I think people are ****ing nuts if they have major political differences with their significant other. If my wife supported Trump we never would have got along in the first place. Basic human decency should be a deal breaker for most people.

Come back in 8 hours when the west coast comes back and postals can be counted

Did you actually watch it?

He voted Biden in 2020, do people not actually watch clips lol.

Agreed. If we didn't have mandatory voting I couldn't be with someone who never voted

what are the key swing states to keep an eye on ?

Yes and no

'' if you dont stop beating me I will leave you '' has a bit more substance than '' if you eat that brussell sprout I am leaving you''

 

[Bloods86]

No-one should be forced to vote a certain way to save a relationship.

If the guy wasn't planning to vote for Harris, the girlfriend should have just dumped him and be done with it.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Because that is always how US elections trend early.

Personally I think trump will win. Him getting shot and seen as a fighter and survivor got him a tone of voters.

Please supply a bucket with that tweet

Texas, Florida, New York

Rural counting mostly

As in current numbers?

You really just have to watch the swing states, Pennsylvania, Nevada, Wisconsin etc. - all results so far are as expected. And most states / electoral college votes counted are of course in favour of Trump.

So it is really going to come down to the slice of the pie most at stake. Sure, there could be a shock surprise or a State that no one expected to flip but that's part of it.

the sort of thing that happens when there are very strict rules in the air about when you put a baby in someone

edit: i actually didn't know he was joking. but the point still stands.
