This election confirms exactly what I've been saying, no matter who wins, we're in some serious trouble here.

This election shouldn't be this close. If Biden irks it out (which appears to be the case), this doesn't bode well for the future of the country. More people voted for Trump this time around than last time, which is absolutely insane. I truly underestimated how much white supremacy, racism, and populism superseded the polls, and the common sense of the electorate.

We're seeing people much more polarized this time round, and deeper into their respective camps. This is quite dangerous and very notable.

Still can't believe Lindsay Graham won his election, the Republicans literally could put a turd as a the candidate and it would've won that state. I'm tired of listening to the pundits claim a particular red state is turning "purple" or that the latin/minority/young vote will change the landscape this election, it never pans out that way, and they need to stop claiming such garbage at this point.

There's definitely more turbulent times ahead as long as the people are so divided and can't come to agreement on literally anything it seems.

Correct. Recount already requested in WI, I imagine MI as well, but highly unlikely to change the direction.

News media and big tech have a far greater influence than anyone should be comfortable with.

Big time. QAnon would never be a thing without big tech. It's another subject that we need to focus on in the future here, how so, I don't know.

I've watched friends who I respected, and believed to have competent minds suddenly fall down deep rabbit holes during COVID, influenced by the internet and social media to adopt esoteric views of the world, it truly worries me.

The dumbest shit is that people fight for shit they don’t even believe in to “stick it to the other side.”
Like imagine being like “I’m gonna use 5 straws for one drink to stick it to the left.”

Things are going to get really interesting when Trump doesn't have a leg to stand on as far as the election goes and he still refuses to accept it. He has the power to rile up his dummy voters claiming 'fraud' and they are dumb enough to eat that shit up.

I’m already seeing those fucking idiots posting that on IG. Will it no longer be fraudulent if he pulls ahead in those states? I’m betting that’s the way they go.

Dictator says: Any votes that aren’t for me are obviously fraudulent!!

What does he care about spending 4-5 million taxpayers money per state to recount votes in every state in a complete exercise of futility... add it to his tab along with his golf trips and security for him and his stupid family.

That British businessman who put down a $5 million bet on Trump after talking to Trump’s inner circle (???) must be sweating some serious balls right now hahaha

Wisconsin is so tight - even though Fox News projected the state for Biden, I am sure Trump is going to demand recounts in flipped states. He never admits defeat, he is a winner.

No, Wisconsin doesn’t have more ballots cast than registered voters
If Your Time is short

As of midday on Nov. 4, the number of votes cast in the presidential election was less than the number of registered voters in Wisconsin on Nov. 1.

Because Wisconsin allows people to register to vote on Election Day, the total number of registered voters in the 2020 election could change.
