Welcome to c/electoralism! politics isn't just about voting or running for office, but this community is.

Please read the Chapo Code of Conduct and remember...we're all comrades here.

Shitposting in other comms please!

put all of your election posting here so it doesn't bother anyone else!

from @CoolerOpposide@hexbear.net:

For Agitprop purposes, I’m asking comrades to help aggregate any and all effortpost responses, critiques, or general thoughts that you have seen or written pertaining to yesterday’s U.S. election that you think have standalone value for discussion either online or IRL.

I made a post for that purpose here, and ideally it can be used not only for general discussion, but as a reference for well thought out responses in discussions about the election to save all of us some brainpower.

No shitposts please, as we’d like to highlight some comrades’ actual effort in constructing responses or analysis, but humor is 100% welcome to help make your point!

I already have my "Barron 2042" yard sign proudly displayed. It's never too early. The Barron/Hawk Tuah administration will be the first Maoist presidency in the USA theory-gary

The "blue wall" didn't hold lmfao

I don't think Trump's victory is deserved, kinda wild to see this incompetent man win the presidency for the second time and after making huge mistakes like picking Vance as VP. But I do think Harris' defeat is indeed deserved, they deserved to be crushed because they fucked around too much and became grotesquely arrogant. If anything, the first woman president of the US shouldn't have been this piece of shit loser who failed her way to the top and the Democrats forced everyone to like because they refused to pressure Biden to step down earlier and then refused to hold primaries.

Serves them right.

Now I beg you, organize. And when you think you're done organizing, organize some more. And when that is enough, no it isn't, more organization is needed. In times of extreme polarization, organization becomes desirable and mandatory.

Ameri-brains bros and sis, can you explain the mind of the dem voter who supports arms embargo (allegedly 60 % of dems or thereabouts), and then goes punch in for kopmala in california or new york?

Even taking labor aristocracy mindspace, I don’t understand it, there is no (not 0.001, just flat 0) chance your vote changes anything, or any restrictions on women/lgbt/drugs/homeless will come because of your vote, so like, what gives?

I’m kkkalling it for kkkamala. Kkkongratulations to the new kkkomander in chief

The Pennsylvania counties where Harris is strong have the bulk of the votes that remain to be counted. I hereby predict that all of tonight's conspiracy theories will begin from the final 5% of the votes to be counted in Pennsylvania.

If nothing big changes, we might be able to call a Trump win within 2 hours.

... Well, it looks like I've failed to call another election by underestimating how fucking bad at politics the democrats are. They look to be doing bad in the congressional elections too. Goddamn. Technically it isn't over and I think the math means she can still pull through (I'm loaded and cannot currently do basic math), but jeeze.

So when Kamala went on SNL it violated the equal time rule that doesn’t exist anymore, but when Trump did, it didn’t? I don’t really care and probably have the details wrong.

So far, the states with a marked increase in third-party votes compared to 2020 only have that increase because the Greens were only write-in candidates last time. Virginia's the biggest difference I've found, but so far I'm pretty disappointed that the total third-party numbers aren't noticeably going up.

Take New Jersey, for instance, which should have been safe enough that any Harris-skeptic would have felt free to vote for a leftist candidate. Last time, the Libertarians were in third place with 0.7%. Right now, the Greens are in third place with 0.7%.

It’s really looking like Kamala is winning. The bourgeois media is very effective and it’s scaring people into voting.
