Kamala reminds of a guy I used to work with, as we Called him Turbine Lips. As he talked so fast and she does too and never says anything coherent.

I can’t imagine that you don’t have a headache.

Thank you for providing a clear, grounded idea of politics.

Michigan has 4 counties in the western Upper Peninsula, near Wisconsin, that are on Central time, and can vote until 8 PM Central/9 PM Eastern time. The rest of Michigan polls close at 8 PM Eastern time.

Well I hope my Michigan relatives vote for Trump.

Trump has hoisted a divided GOP party onto his shoulders while swimming upstream through a torrent of powerful Democrat Regime attacks that included two assassination attempts… and is poised to carry the GOP across the finish line. If Trump prevails, I hope the GOP can purge the junk or see them reform to adopt the winning model of Republicanism… that is really the more pure and accurate version of Republicanism.

You seem to miss the point that Trump and everyone he touches looses, 2018, 2020, 2022.

Now that we are here I can't not pick a side, when presented Trump and Harris (in fact I think any Democrat at this point in time) I am voting for Trump. In fact voting FOR him and not against the Democrat.

That said, he has done more brand damage to the GOP. The GOP needs to tell MAGA they are welcome to have a seat at the table but they are not running the show. In 1950 JD Vance would have been a Democrat. If Trump wins he will be a octogenarian lame duck.

That said, the GOP nationally and at the state level nees to get their act together. MTG, Matt Gaetz, and few others need to be marginalized and then go. Trump did not facilitate change. At least maggots only eat dead tissue, Trump is a progressive right, populist cancer.

Bit of a correction in my opinion. Don't believe exit polling at all. It has never been accurate and they are trying a last ditch effort to depress the republican voting by saying things like "There's been a late shift to Kamala.." Its all bogus. First priority is to give the dems some glimmer of hope so the black vote comes out to vote for them. Wont work. But they will try.

The not getting results for days is sickening at this point. We can tally and count lottery tickets in less than an hour, but we can't count votes? Something wrong there.

Depending on how this goes, or maybe regardless. I think a push back to paper ballots shouldn't be out of the question. I do think after this, there should be a hand counted audit in Georgia.

As for the Haitian, yes it was false but it still raises the question. I doubt they could get away with that in Georgia. But in states like Penn, that have no ID vetting. What's to stop that?

And its the same question I asked Erick before. If the dems really did have a way to flood the ballot system with fake votes, what would anyone be able to do about it, even if they fully admitted to it?

We saw what happened when the Chinese national came forward, his vote will still count.

That is what is the most frustrating thing.

And no, overall whatever small shift that may have gone to Kamala is not going to affect the final outcome, especially in Iowa.

Thanks for all the terrific info. We are on vacation in Europe. All the news in about OUR election. They are more concerned about our governance than their own. Also, all the EU news channels love Kamala and hate Israel.

Erick,

I can afford lib tax increases but will not like it.

I can weather bad domestic policies but will not like it.

Most things the other party may do I can deal with.

I accept that Jesus Christ is driving, and I am just a passenger.

America has been projecting Peace thru strength for about 200 years. It only took 3 months from Biden's public display of dementia for China and North Korea and Russia and Iran to team up to attack a perceived weakened USA. I can't protect my family with a weak president signaling to the bad guys that it's open season on the USA. For this, and only this reason, this is the most important election in my 67 years.

Cheers

Great post Erick. Just a correction: Mike Rogers is the Republican Senate candidate for the open seat in Michigan.

The Haitians Voting in Georgia...

This spread free through stupid people sharing it.

I do not believe Hamilton County, Indiana will go for Harris. Dems thought their Carmel mayoral candidate was a lock last year. The R won with about 60% of the vote, and she's on a crazy par with Trump, the Dem outspent her significantly. But stranger things have happened.

I just want this nightmare to be over. The next 4 years could easily be hell for our country, regardless of who wins, and we need to get ready.
