    Vote twiced for me!
    Vote early and vote often!

    Hopefully It won’t be another « WTF America » moment!
    It’ll be a WTF America moment regardless 
    Nah.  We’ve got this.
    I seem to recall you were similarly confident back in 2016. 
    Ha!  My operating assumption for some time has been that Trump is going to win this one.  I was just expressing the view that if it happens to go the other way, it wouldn't be a WTF moment.
    Ahh, gotcha.

    I am kind of curious about those of you who decided to vote today, as opposed to voting early.  I'm not sure I understand the decision to wait in long lines, unless maybe your boss gives you time off for it. 

    I mean... we're not talking Franklin brisket here...
    I vote 2 blocks from my house at the local public middle school. Poll opens at 6:00am CST. I was in the door at 6:03, out at 6:06…

    Sounds like you’re used to… rising early.

    Thought you were heading towards “finishing quickly”.

    Thanks to all who answered my question.  I didn’t realize just how different early voting worked in other states.

    Here it’s definitely the path of least resistance.  Many more places to vote, and the lines are a lot shorter.

    OT, but you carry that Ridge in the front pocket, right Ozzie. 

    I love the design, but I place my leather wallet in the back pocket and don’t see that approach working with this.

    Ridge in left pocket, key and knife in right pocket.  Back pocket free for random stuff I absentmindedly put in them.  Mostly pens and screwdrivers, I remember those when I hop in the car and almost puncture the upholstery.

    If Harris loses, I hope the dems do some major soul searching.  Trump absolutely tee’d up the election for dems, almost like he was a plant for them.

    In the end game all I want is divided government to keep the pendulum of government clsoe to dead center.  Although there have been a few recent years where each party has owned them all and did not move the needle much.

    Americans are always quick to look for a scapegoat with something like this, because the alternative - a long hard look in the mirror - is too much to bear.

    Kamala taking her toys and going home is an interesting approach.  Turned out the lights and said she was tired and going to bed.  It gives the impression of her throwing a tantrum when she didn’t get her way.

    Maybe she could have laid out why what just happened is a travesty for the world and that she will fight to make sure America keeps her sanity.  Fire and Brimstone, show some heart.

    Hats off to the Trump campaign and his supporters/voters.  The Democrats got flat out smoked.

    Did you expect a different outcome with a a candidate thrust into the position a week before the DNC? 

    I still find it foolish and pathetic that these were the best two candidates our country could put forward.

    Given that her opponent never once conceded the race in 2020, perhaps she deserves a bit of grace in this regard.

    Last I checked, Trump won the Republican primary in 2024.  

    I understand the desire to blame Democrats for him though.  Why not?  Blaming all the people who voted for him doesn’t tell the greatest story about the country, after all.

    heard a narrative last night which needs to spread IMO..

    not a black vote or a white vote, or a man vs. woman vote, or a minority vote. 

    it was an AMERICAN CITIZEN vote..

    I like that...
