Y'all getting ready for White Book part 2?

I think WB Pt 2 will be great. This way I can finally stop hearing people say "you weren't around for the white book".

Seriously though, I could handle 4 years of shit from management, itd be a small portion of my otherwise comfortable career. What worries me more is that when Dems eventually get control of Senate and Executive branch, they will suck too much to make it right again.

Our issues continue to be greater than how narcissistic Trump is or how lethargic Biden is. These candidates are not remotely the best America has to offer.

How’s this. Biden narrowly wins and appoints gillibrand to his cabinet leaving an open seat for cuomo to appoint AOC as senator. 4 years later Biden retires and says Democrats should have a primary to replace him. Senator AOC wins the nomination and its AOC vs Trump Jr!!!

True, but there’s still a lot at stake here. The virus and economic relief for it are being held hostage for this election, and they get better with a certain outcome

This describes everything that happens in Washington. Everything is held hostage until people get what they want and decide to support things.
I listened to the whole panel about privatization years ago and damn there was some really stupid shit discussed. And let me tell you there wasn’t a lot that had anything to do with actual air traffic control.

I agree. Just in the short term Democrats have done a disservice to their base this year to try and get a better deal to claim for their elections. I’ll remember this and I hope others do. I’m sick of there being no party for working people.
 
Oh I've been saying it's gonna be tight and probably go to the courts for weeks now.

So if Trump is over performing, how were the polls accurate.
it looks like the map is coming exactly though the most likely outcome on 538. In the margin of error races trump got Florida NC and prolly Georgia. Biden got AZ.

if Michigan and Wisconsin go blue then it comes down to penn like almost all pundits said.

obviously as a partisan I was hoping for the blow out. But ppl were writing articles exposing this exact outcome was very likely.

thank god Virginia just flipped btw.

Yup, both sides are holding it up. Pelosi’s interview was hilarious when asked why she didn’t just agree to the Senate/Trump proposal to get all the hard hit people and businesses help now. She said because she knows what the struggling people need and that wasn’t it. (Not direct quotes, don’t sue me). Trump just ignored the question in debates lol.

But wouldn’t anything be better than nothing?

I feel like the art of compromise is lost and both sides are just petulant children not wanting to share.
 
So question is does Trump declare victory tonight before real results are in and battleground states are done being counted?

What effect does that have going forward, momentum and public opinion wise for when it enevitably goes to the courts?

This isn't true, if Michigan and Wisconsin go Blue the election is over
Edit: If Biden doesn't get Omaha and Trump gets Maine its tied
 
Okay so someone refresh my memory on the 12th amendment. Electoral college ties, goes to the senate, is it a 2/3rds vote for a winner or simple majority?

That's how it works right?

No the tiebreaker is an absolute disaster for dems. Every state gets 1 vote and each state reps and senators get together and select their 1 vote.
 
lol tbh most of those guys win regardless of whoever sits on the throne =/
That's the joke. We shouod change that and get rid of the corpraists and grifters.

I can dream right?

Not rooting for it just curious.
 
538 initial takeaway. You can’t count Cubans with the rest of the Hispanics ?. Looks like they got latinos right with Latinos and very wrong in Florida
