I'm not talking about wild race outcomes. That's "normal".

I'm talking about the lib doomsayer predictions:

  • Polls being shut down by the feds
  • state of emergency being declared
  • terror at the ballot box
  • anarchy in the streets
  • trump rejecting the outcome if the there is a blue wave.
  • American Communism being ushered via electoral democracy!
  • proud boys doing proud boy things

I already visited a poll today, it was like any other midterm election. Uneventful. Not even the cranks were out.

Nothing ever happens gang is on the ballot this year folks, and I think the polls are looking good.

whatever sort of coordinated maga denial-of-outcomes-action move happens, i expect it closer to january. maga media is still insisting that the republicans, trump, maga are very popular, the non-maga polls are fake, etc.

they are likely to stick with that narrative if there is an expectation of countering any anti-maga mandate at the ballot.
