It's probably time for a new one of these.
NE-2 went to Biden so a tie is unlikely unless he loses NV so stop posting about that.
Other admins, please replace this when there is a result. I'm going to bed.

The 🇱🇷 2020 🇱🇷 American 🇱🇷 Presidential 🇱🇷 Elections 🇱🇷 are the single most important political event since The Last Fascist was VOTED 🔫 OUT 🔫. We on the admin team see it as our duty to enforce the views of our audience by any parasocial means necessary.
As a nacho-socialist cabal, we see no path to revolution other than by focusing the majority of our leisure time on consuming bougie media. Media that is obsessed with the details of an election we decided our preferences on months ago, if not years ago. Here's the bottom line: Voting makes you a good person and not voting makes you a bad one. Don't believe us? Just ask Lenin:
A democratic republic is the best possible political shell for capitalism, and, therefore, once capital has gained possession of this very best shell (through the Palchinskys, Chernovs, Tseretelis and Co.), it establishes its power so securely, so firmly, that no change of persons, institutions or parties in the bourgeois-democratic republic can shake it.
We must also note that Engels is most explicit in calling universal suffrage as well an instrument of bourgeois rule. Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down, never gonna run around and desert you. Universal suffrage, he says, obviously taking account of the long experience of German Social-Democracy, is "the gauge of the maturity of the working class. It cannot and never will be anything more in the present-day state."
See? We can't let capital take control of this "very best shell"! Turtles belong to the people! And the way we do that is by voting for posts.

Holy shit. If it wasn't for libertarians, Trump would have a solid lead in Wisconsin and Michigan, which would guarantee a win.
LIBERTARIANS ARE GOING TO COST TRUMP THE ELECTION LOOLOLOOLOLOLOLOL
From r/conservative
Just remember everyone, we were pretty peeved when Obama beat Romney in 2012. But if Romney had won in 2012, then we wouldn’t have gotten trump, who did way more for us than Romney ever would have. A trump loss here could possibly set us up for someone amazing in 2024.
So excited for President Ted Nugent
My hardcore lib friends are already trying to say Bernie would've lost even more because America is now rightwing, and Biden should've been more far right. Fucking clown shoes.
The more I see "Cubans escaped the dictator Castro only to vote for a dictator in Trump" posts the more I'm urged to post "Castro did nothing wrong."
Republicans would never lose another election in our lifetime if they just started to call Latinos white, and after this election they probably realize this.
Latinos are the next Irish/Italians to be accepted into American “whiteness”
So Joe is going to win an incredibly narrow victory, the Senate is staying republican, and the house is sliding back towards the right a bit?
Fucking democrats.
This is 3 elections in a row where they eat shit and they will manage to turn 2 of them into "victories".
What a funny outcome. In the span of around 12 hours, literally every single side except Republican Senate and House candidates got dragged and humiliated. Biden ate shit, Trump is currently eating shit, most Dem Senate and House candidates ate shit, Nate Bronze and his polling friends ate shit, even Reddit ate shit. What a day
The democrats managed to lose a north dakota seat to a guy who died of COVID weeks ago.
lol
Liberals are fucking wild lmao
On behalf of America, I'd like to formally apologize to the world about the fact that the guy who intentionally downplayed a deadly pandemic, is taking corrupt cops at their word, and wants to rule America like Assad does Syria even has a SHOT at winning it all... AGAIN.
We... we were supposed to be better than this. We were supposed to be the "Chosen Ones" who led our world into a new era of peace and equality after beating back the Axis, passing the Civil Rights Act, and working to dismantle European Communism through peace instead of war...
...I'm so sorry we fucked it all up.
just got blasted with radiation to make sure my heart isn't fucked and good news! it's not! kinda sucks about the radiation, but i'm gonna actually be able to sleep at night now.
you're laughing. american democracy is teetering on the edge of extinction and you're laughing.

AZ update: apparently the use of sharpie pens in gop precincts is causing ballots to be invalidated. Could be huge numbers of mostly Trump supporters. More to come
If Trump loses Az because his supporters wanted to LARP as him with a Sharpie, I am going to fucking cum.
