2020 #election:

81M #biden, 74M #trump

2024 election:

75M #harris, 77M trump

some switched to trump. a few nonvoters showed for trump

but the dominant number is the asshole nonvoters who couldn't be bothered for harris

that's a story of #racism, #entitlement, whining constantly online but not really caring

i 100% blame our current hell on #MAGA and nonvoters

#ElSayed shows the way forward now:

show the fuck up and fucking #vote

In case you missed it:

Ken Paxton vowed to “stop at nothing to uncover and stop any illegal voting activity.” But experts say he may have violated state law by using an address where he no longer appears to live to vote in six elections in two years.

NEW: After ProPublica and The Texas Tribune revealed Ken Paxton repeatedly voted while registered at an address where he appears to no longer live, Democrats called for an investigation into whether the Texas attorney general committed election fraud.

#Trump is addressing the #USA tonight with #election lies

#NBC, #ABC, and #CNN won't show it

Some networks that are mostly good will still carry it, some networks that are questionable won't carry it, but we at least acknowledge NBC ABC and CNN, regardless of other negative valid issues, on this specific topic, they recognized bullshit and rejected it, and we applaud them for that

#ElonMusk likely broke the #law by giving voters $1 million, #Wisconsin board says

[duh]#Billionaire Elon #Musk likely broke Wisconsin law when he handed out $1 million checks to voters in the 2025 state Supreme Court election, a bipartisan panel has found.

The Wisconsin Elections Commission last week referred 2 complaints to the Brown County DA’s office, which can choose to bring #criminal charges over violating the state law against #election #bribery.

SO WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO FUCKING DO

YOU'RE GOING TO SHOW THE FUCK UP AND YOU'RE GOING TO FUCKING #VOTE

or shut the fuck up

if you don't walk the walk, don't talk the talk

I have been harvesting UK media headlines for six weeks as part of a linguistics study. I ran a query this morning, election day, to count how often Scottish party leaders were mentioned across 25 outlets.

The Scottish Greens are polling second in Scotland tonight. Their two co-leaders got 40 mentions combined.

Malcolm Offord, whose party has never held a Holyrood seat, got 167.

Follow the link for more findings, including why this might matter.

#Democrat #ChedrickGreene beats #Republican #JasonTunney in a #Saginaw area special #election in #Michigan

Meaning:

The Michigan State #Senate will be 20-18 in favor of the Democrats, rather than a tie

"Who cares, #Trump is the problem"

On the contrary, the #presidency is just a capstone on a huge system, and when we take our eye off the little #elections, we get a systemic rot that leads to someone like Trump

#Vote. Especially the #primaries. It all matters

There are many problems with #USA #democracy

Like the stupid #ElectoralCollege

Gore beat Bush in 2000, Clinton beat Trump in 2016. In the popular vote. The EC erased it

Well here's another reason for you to #vote in the #primaries and the general #election:

The #Democrats, if they win enough in November, can kill the EC

it's been a 20 year effort of states agreeing to void the EC if enough agree: the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact

Investigators found that leaders of a prison gang in Puerto Rico were selling inmates drugs in exchange for voting for Gov. Jenniffer González-Colón, a longtime Republican.

After Trump’s election, prosecutors were told not to pursue charges.
