... weren't we all expecting him to possibly do good on the actual election night since Democrats disproportionately vote by mail?

They’re also saying, like you said, he’s picking up lots of black votes

Looks like it’s the black vote or lack of that is going to give NC to Trump

Mostly just not voting


Perhaps because Biden is a snooze fest and only the black democrats who care enough to vote in the primary had to vote for Obama’s lap dog

I'm certainly not saying that accelerationism is going to be beneficial but acclerationism can certainly potentially destabalize trust in status quo capitalism. I mean status quo capitalism is the reason people turned to a chaos agent like Trump in the first place. But without functioning labor organizing to give the working class a legitimate power block then yeah acclerationism is just a train speeding toward a fascist or civil war cliff.

Of course the inbred idjits in Kentucky re-elected the turtle

Please stop ragging on Florida so we can start taking a dump on Kentucky. He's not even a charismatic Sith Lord like Trump but is still blatantly a Star Wars villain. What are his voters even doing?

Him and Pelosi should both be kicked to the curb.

This probably explains it - I was just comparing to 2016 at around the same time.

Quick question, what does this mean and when are we going to find out the actual final election results?

We should do like a Black Mirror episode 1 thing where we threaten to set off a bomb somewhere if McConnell and Pelosi don't livestream themselves having sex.

P.S. I just couldn't remember his name and Googled "gravedigger of democracy" and once I hit the "d" in "democracy" it stopped giving me suggestions like if I was Googling porn, so I think there's some skullduggery there.

I asume he means that it's possible that not all of the mail-in ballots have arrived yet - and it may take longer to count them.

Because of the pandemic there's a lot of mail in ballots that won't be counted on election night.
