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.

    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.

        Trump will have like like 4-5 recounts and court cases by the end of the week,

        This is not nearly as close as the media is making it sound. Az, Wi, Nv, and Mi are all going to Biden. He does not need Ga, Nc or Pa.

        I am still convinced Biden has Pa bagged already. Meaning trump needs to take everyone to his rigged court.

        Enjoy your civil war America.

      Don't the ballots say "use a blue or black pen" like they do here? I'm confused how failure to read the instructions is a problem for these people.

          A sharpie would bleed through the paper, but apparently that's not an issue with the ballots in question.

        I almost busted out a fine tip marker (technically a sharpie, but not the sharpie people think of) for doing my mail in ballot, because that's what's always used at my polling places, and it fills in better. But my instructions said blue or black ink, no marker. Despite it looking like the same paper stock.

      Great, now we're gonna get a whole wave of people connecting soros to sharpie inc.
