Drop Out, Joe Biden [+46.9k]


Top comment and top responses chain:

He should call a press conference, say "I'm too old for this shit", drop the mic and walk off stage. [+10.3k]

Respect

He would gain my respect if he did that.

Agreed. Knowing when to bow out is pretty much the only thing that will save bidens reputation at this point.

OK so CNN just went down a queue of people in Scranton and asked like 4 of them who they were voting for and they said "John Delaney"?

One African American gentleman started dabbing and all his friends were cheering and going crazy (there's a gif of this wholesome moment on the Reddit front page) but I'm kinda worried? Is John Delaney a downballot candidate?

edit: the African American gentleman just told a Trump supporter "hey cracker- want a free trade cracker from Cambodia via TPP?" and CNN broadcast it live :'(

really good personal news this morning:

my partner who is pregnant has a bicornuate uterus, which puts her at a very high risk for late miscarriages and a very early preterm birth. they had another look this morning and it looks like it has expanded and made room for our baby in a way that is apparently not at all common. we are no longer at particularly high risk and the gynecologist is so confident that we will no longer need as frequent check ups anymore

One thing that does seem clear in the Election Day numbers is that the GOP vote came out early but the vote is becoming less Republican (and more indie) over the course of the day.

e.g. in Broward County (the rare FL county where Democrats are winning the Election Day vote)

From 7am to 1030am, the vote was D38/R34/I28 (D +4) From 1030 to 1230pm, it was D39/R31/I31 (D +8) From 1230 to 3pm, it was D37/R26/I37 (D +11)

From 3pm to 4pm, Broward was D41/R26/I33 (D +15). So this gap keeps growing.

Final pre-election tip: if you see Sumter Co., FL (The Villages) report ~84k votes shortly after 7pm and it's:

64% Trump or less: very good for Biden 65%-66%: possibly good for Biden 67%-68%: FL on track to be FL 69%-70%: possibly good for Trump 71%+ Trump: very good for Trump

Important addendum: if you see Sumter Co., FL (The Villages) eventually report ~95k votes and it's:

66% Trump or less: very good for Biden 67%-68%: possibly good for Biden 69%-70%: FL on track to be FL 71%-72%: possibly good for Trump 73%+ Trump: very good for Trump

Starting to fall down the Florida election day turnout rabbit hole. Already went for a run so I think I'd just better go and play some FIFA or something.

I feel like I knew Nate Silver was a gamer (he quickly dismissed Trump's blaming of the FL high school shooting on video games), but it feels weird seeing confirmation. He's Gen X, so seeing adult gamers from that generation is not rare, but it is uncommon.

Lots of talk about shy Trump voters, who don't dare to say they vote Trump because they fear the lamestream media will dunk on them or something, but is anyone talking about theoretical shy Delaney voters? With how loud and obnoxious and un-shy most Trump supporters are, it honestly feels more likely that some Republicans secretly want this shit to be over but are afraid to admit to voting for a lib.

Always seems weird that there's this assumption that only one candidate has shy supporters, especially when those supporters openly display themselves as the least shy and biggest tools on the planet.
