Autopsy US Election Day Thread - Trump 47th President of the United States

[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...

We have seen instances all around the AFL bedrooms where both partners support different teams - even the enemy

If you're politically aware, who you prefer can definitely highlight your priorities or the type of things you're willing to tolerate in society and for others. I.e. your character.

It's a lot different than which sporting team you go for.

We really do elections the best

The AEC is so underappreciated.

 

[MarcMaverick]

Stop the count!

You are ridiculous.

 

[King Patty]

Musk...Democrats remind everyone a winner may not be announced until 110% of the vote is counted

 

[_Cerberus_]

Atlanta yet to be counted

I am pretty sure that Atlanta and the surrounding areas account for around half of the states population as well.

Early pick for worst post of the day?

I must admit there is a very small part of me that would enjoy the meltdown from some of these smug elites if Harris loses.

Unfortunately the other actual implications of a Trump victory are to severe to even consider.

Isnt that where the 5 bomb threats have been also?

 

[Bloods86]

My dude he literally says in the clip that he was joking.

I'm trying to work as well, don't have time to click many links.

The general point still stands.

No-one should be forced to vote a certain way, but politics can definitely justify a breakup.

 

[Hank Scorpion]

Harris out to $3.25

Not bad. I'd say Trump is favoured right now, but still not much better than a coinflip.

Love that Penn has a voting region called 'Warren'

What website you on that has the counties? I only have the ABC that has the state

 

[dumb]

Depends how hot she is, if she's hot enough then I'm just gonna go along with it

"Yes babe of course you can wear your MAGA hat in bed tonight, yes we can spice things up"

Game is game

you vote for harris and you can come stuff my ballot box baby

 

[GreyCrow]

Iowa coming online soon?

 

[Dixie Flatline]

A judge in Northampton County in Pennsylvania denied a request by the Democratic National Committee to extend voting hours by two hours, to 10 p.m. Eastern time, despite a six-hour wait at a polling place near Lehigh University. Voters in line by 8 p.m. could still vote.

From the NY Times.

If it wasn't run in the USA, there would be serious doubts from international observers about the freedom and fairness of elections in the USA.

 

[ClarkeM]

Hmmmm always found the us voting system complicated.

In Australia you tick off your name,scribble on some paper and your done

I'm quite apolitical, especially locally however there are two things that irk me:
A) Compulsory voting
B) The fact that a felon who is a sexual abuser and con artist during a cost of living crisis (and prior to) is possibly going to become the President of the United States

I'm hopeful Harris wins.

 

[MadMundy]

I don't know, this is giving me 2016 vibes, forgone conclusion that Trump has no chance, that Clinton/Harris will win, only for Trump to shock everyone and win.

Stuffed by a big hanging chad.

I mean the narrative has literally been too close to call for months.

Nobody would be shocked if Trump wins

 

[Xtreme]

The coverage on ABC Channel 20 is quite good. I like watching Aussies covering American elections - it's more familiar obviously, and more detached, above the fray rather than in it.

Antony Green call it yet ?

 

[happy_eagle]

Any chance there is one in Penn called Teller?

Yeh but its pretty quiet

no chance? Gee.

Maybe take a break from this thread.

Wasn't Trump the bookies favourite this time unlike 2016? Don't really bet on these markets so I wouldn't know

Seeing a US election again really makes you appreciate how we get campaign and get results within 6 weeks.

Early pick for worst post of the day?

At this stage DonOld might have been telling the truth when he said he was the father of IVF.

 

[MadMundy]

i mean the narrative has literally been to close to call for months.

I mean true, but for the most part a lot of people seem to think Harris is the likely winner, same with Clinton.

I do think there's a very good chance Trump wins.
