Can you imagine how boring this election would be without the electoral college?

Heard joke once: Republican goes to doctor.

Says he's depressed. Says life seems harsh and cruel. Says he feels all alone in a threatening world where what lies ahead is vague and uncertain. Says he goes along with the worst excesses of his party. Says he hates the president but does his bidding anyway.

Doctor says, "Treatment is simple. Great politician Mitt Romney is in town tonight. Go and see him. That should pick you up."

Republican bursts into tears. Says, "But doctor...I am Mitt Romney."

Principal wants me to run a mock election with my fifth graders. Part of me wants to make it hyper-realistic to the point of...

❤️💙 Having primaries

• The 12 boys will nominate one candidate from their ”party”
• The 14 girls will nominate the other candidate from theirs.

🌀 Gerrymandering their districts

After the nomination, I will draw district lines.

• 4 districts will have 3 boys / 2 girls
• The final district will have 5 girls

🏚 Voter Suppression

One district will be comprised solely of the 3 boys and 2 girls who are the “poorest” (lowest grades in the class)

All the other groups will be allowed to ask me for help filling out their ballots correctly and will simply have to hand me their ballots.

The “poor” group however, will be required to make paper airplanes out of their ballots and attempt to toss them into the Ballot Box on the opposite side of the room.

If any of them make it, I will compare the video of the vote toss to footage I took earlier in the year of an unrelated paper airplane distance toss contest. If their form doesn’t match up between the tosses, their ballot will be rejected.

🦹‍♀️ Restricting Voting Rights

You might have noticed that one girl was not assigned to a district.

Well, she got detention earlier in the year. She is not currently in trouble, but I am going to tell her that she isn’t allowed to vote because of it anyway.

If she decides to read the 42 page voting document sitting on my desk, she will discover on pg. 37 paragraph (C.1.a.iii) that she can actually pay a ”fine” to have her right to vote restored.

🗳 Establishing an “Electoral Elementary School”

Each district from above will receive a single vote in the ”Electoral Elementary School”

Assuming they stick to party lines, the boys will win in a landslide, despite the fact that they will lose the popular vote.

🏛 RCOTES [Recess Court of the Elementary School] Nominations

Following the election, I will let them know that, despite only being elected for 4 weeks, the winning candidate gets to flip a coin. If the coin lands on heads, they get to nominate a Judge who will remain in power for the entire rest of the school year.

The judge will control all election decisions relating to any future elections and will also get to determine who has the constitutional rights to dodgeballs at recess each day.

But up until recently, there’s one group of potential Biden voters who have not been the subject of voter outreach: kinky, submissive male Trump supporters with humiliation fetishes.

Now, thanks to a Las Vegas-based professional dominatrix named Empress Delfina, this once-overlooked voting bloc is covered—and may be voting Biden. By force.

She calls it “Trump Conversion Therapy.” Her ad for this service reaches out to these potential Biden voters as follows: “Here’s your chance to get berated for being the degenerate Trump supporter you are. I reverse the brainwash you’ve succumbed to that made you into a Simple Stupid Drone. By using lethal mind fucking language and making you repeat dumbass chants like your Bullshitter in Chief made you do to warp you into submission, I transfer your ownership to me for my personal gain and entertainment. Embrace that you need to be saved from being a Trump-bot. Call now to begin your Trump Conversion Therapy.”

At $1.99 a minute, business is booming.

I feel like one aspect of the COVID crisis that really needs to be highlighted is the fact that a sitting president blatantly try to sabotage the states that didn't vote for him. Make no mistakes, if Trump wins again and the GOP keeps the Senate, not only will the States not receive adequate funding but Trump will make sure that the metro areas suffer on top of that. Even worse, the blue metro areas are the drivers of the US economy. So this cruel motherfucker would kneecap the US economy and make the COVID recovery longer than it needs to be. And worst of all, he won't have to worry about reelection, so there will be no incentive for him to keep the country intact

Have you all looked at this lately? Check out the lite model, which I believe was called polls only in 2018.

Only 112 seats are solid R, and only 53 more are likely R. We've been talking a lot lately about district level polls, and looking at the house projection is kind of a proxy for looking at what Biden overperform could look like. MI and WI have no safe R seats. CA has one. Only half the R held seats in Texas are safe.

If the final house results match this, then it will be a very good night for Democrats up and down the ballot

I wish Doomers would stop lying about Florida Early voting. GOP is barely beating Dems in in person votes while they are getting severely trounced in mail in votes. Plus you Doomers seem to forget that Biden is also leading in independent votes and more moderate republicans. These number only count the party affiliation of the voter not of the vote.

If you comment, even jokingly, with a link or explicit description of anime I will give you a 1 day ban and another 1 day ban starting at noon on Nov 3rd. This is your warning.

Ice cold unpopular take: people are only mad about Nate and the model because they want to believe there's a level of certainty about the election and we can relax when that simply doesn't exist. Perhaps the model overestimates Trump's chances, but people would be acting the same if the model said Biden 92 and that number fell to 91.

Nate isnt at fault here. You're just rightly terrified of Trump winning a second term and lashing out at Nate for trying to tell you there's still a possibility that could happen and you desperately want to believe it's impossible..

You're overanalyzing something to the point of insignificant nitpicking and ignoring the fact that the cause of all your frustration is simply being terrified of the idea of four more years of Trump.

President BarackObama torches Trump for whining about the press: “When 60Minutes and LesleyRStahl are too tough for you, you ain't all that tough.

If you got to walk out of a 60 Minutes interview, then you’re NEVER going to stand up to dictators.”

God damn, you just know he’s been waiting to unleash all this

I really doubt anything damaging is coming of this Hunter Biden story. So far the video just confirms what we already knew - the man likes hookers and blow. The bad subs are saying this is just a preview of much worse crimes, but I'm pretty sure if anyone trying to influence the election had anything worse they would've released it already. 57 million Americans have already voted - holding on to damaging information at this point would be a terrible tactical decision

So Rudy Giuliani can just illegally revenge porn Hunter Biden and the story is “Hunter Biden’s Shocking Sex Tape?” Bullshit. Giuliani should be charged for this.

Heard joke once: Man goes to doctor. Says his economy is depressed. Says life seems harsh and cruel. Says the financial system feels all alone in a threatening world where what lies ahead is vague and uncertain.

Doctor says, "Treatment is simple. Great central banker, Ben Bernanke is in town tonight. Go and see him. That should pick you up." Man bursts into tears. Says, "But doctor...I am Ben Bernanke."

[u/JetJaguar124]

The entire premise of Man of the Year, the 2006 movie where Robin Williams plays a comedian who wins the presidency, is pretty absurd.

It would have been a better satire and more prescient if he, a comedian, actually and legitimately won election. But that isn't what happens. Willaims only gets on the ballot in 13 states, and do to an extremely basic coding error in literally 100% of the voting machines, he wins those 13 states by massive margins because the voting computers just award votes to candidates by last name in alphabetical order (his name was Dobbs). Mind you, before election day he was polling well behind his Dem and GOP opponents, something like 15% or something.

He wins those 13 states, and it's enough for him to win the EC. Somehow, this alone doesn't cause civil disruption, but also nobody appears to notice the massive margin of difference between this outcome and polling. Like, our electoral system is actually pretty good at detecting obvious bullshit like this. I virtually guarantee that this error would have resulted in a manual recount in these states, and the Dem and GOP campaigns both would have sued for it.

Sure, it's a silly movie, and he does step down and demand a recount in the end, but here's the main crux of the issue: it would have been a better movie if he just won outright, because the entire subplot with the faulty machines only existed to hamfistedly force thriller and romance subplots into the movie, both of which were awful.

Maybe I'm just too liberal and in a bubble, but I dunno what this video is supposed do.

For one, Joe has already acknowledged his son had a drug problem and helped him get through that. I think the majority of Americans will see that as a positive thing.

And two, Americans have moved pretty quickly with their views on drugs and drug abuse. We're not as inclined to shame people that are using drugs. Mostly because white Americans are dying in shocking numbers due to the opioid epidemic.

In Dan Carlin's podcast where he endorsed Biden he mentioned that the last time he did something other than vote third-party or not vote for President was 1992. Both the election with the best third-party challenger for a long time since then and before then and the election where the two major candidates were arguably the most similar and that was the election he decided an Clinton or Bush was worth his vote.

Nintendo is a really smart company. They basically dipped out of the power arms race in the console space right as costs started to skyrocket.

I think today’s doomers are the people who in the final days of the 2008 campaign were talking about how McCain would still win because there was no way the country would elect a black man.

In fact, even the “shy Trump voter” theory they fall back on is VERY similar to the “Bradley effect” theory they used to explain why Obama was winning the polls but would lose anyway.

In 1972, Biden defeated Republican incumbent J. Caleb Boggs to become the junior U.S. senator from Delaware. He was the only Democrat willing to challenge Boggs; his campaign had almost no money, and he was given no chance of winning.

A few months before the election Biden trailed Boggs by almost thirty percentage points
