They've sobered Harris up enough for her to give a speech: https://www.youtube.com/live/WckEFzGku0Q

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!
Won’t someone spare a thought for those criminal prosecutors who spent thousands of man-hours and spent millions of dollars to not convict only for the charges to slide right off Teflon Don?
I had hoped that third parties would get a larger share of the vote this time, but from what I can tell, they did rather poorly. Honestly more disappointing than the actual result
Everyone remember to leave your sample ballot under your pillow tonight for when Uncle Sam visits, otherwise he will purge your voter registration
I am reaching the point of utter disbelief
Watching this Godamn fucking election coverage on the mainstream press
The “analyst” clearly showed how Kamala Harris can lose if she doesn’t get enough votes in one key state, though the numbers in question showed millions more votes than Trump
What is wrong with the average person that they continue to stand by this bullshit? Fucking rubes
I don't think i've ever seen the libs so scratched
They are frothing at the fucking mouth right now
lol, they're really losing to Trump twice.
really was a terrible candidate, all they could say was ”Black South Asian president #girlboss”, no substance other than ”the genocide will continue and here's Dick Cheney”.
Who could've predicted that a right wing ghoul campaign including muh border wouldn't appeal to anyone?
Already hearing people pre-emptively blaming Stein for Michigan and Arizona
I'm having a lot of morbid fun right now sorting /r/politics posts by "controversial". The mods there are obviously having trouble keeping up with their usual censorship duties. There's a lot of leftist-perspective truth being spoken.
it's looking like Nebraska might simultaneously guarantee abortion to viability (up ~10 points) and ban abortion after the first trimester (within a point). Voters are so fuckin stupid
Looks like my state decided not to do school vouchers, silver linings
"It doesn't matter who we vote for in (my state) because of the electoral college" seems to be hitting libs harder than usual this season, lol
Easy to get them on the same page as me again by saying "it's too bad Trump didn't get his head blown off that one time"
First time I voted for a president and didn't feel dread or disgust after. I just feel like my task for the day is done and I can no longer think about it. Went PSL instead of Green because the green VP has been weird these past few days. Shame cause I liked Jill.
On November 5, I will vote against genocide
"What I have seen in Palestine has convinced me not to vote for Kamala Harris for the sake of the Palestinian and American people."
I'm posting this because this was written by someone who's been there on the ground and I do like how he ties it to how he plans on voting.
NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte says he looks forward to working with Trump “to advance peace through strength”
fix is in folks
Kamala losing Michigan 52-45 with 56% reporting

I know this is petty, but if Trump ends up winning I'm going to troll reddit libs for like a solid week about how Putin is now in command of the country.
i'm feeling bad for any of the poor souls who are getting their hopes up over the election. i did that once, long ago and i have learned my lesson and am now old and bitter. and particularly given the participants in this election i'm genuinely just so checked out. not even my country. but the whole world goes insane each time.
She's not winning Arizona, dems are straight up delusional about that
That state is deep south in terms of racism against black candidates, in fact I would maintain its one of the top five racist states in the country
what are the odds of kilometer-wide meteorite hitting north america within the next few hours?
NYT needle dropped from 88% to 85% odds of Trump winning
I'M LIBBING UP!
edit: it's back to 87%
Bluesky libs sure didn't complain about this before the election. I'm not exaggerating that this moment of clarity post made me laugh pretty hard for more than five seconds.
sure doesn't feel like "let's run for the Reasonable Moderate Republican Vote" worked out real well, huh
Checked r/politics and there was a self-styled centrist scolding the "left" for Kamala's defeat
can't believe the cringe Elon hopping X celebration actually tipped the election to Trump.
the people love cringe, folks. embrace the cringe
At this point dems are putting women out there on purpose to lose so people get this idea that women can’t run anything. I literally can’t think of anything else, how the fuck do you lose the POPULAR VOTE???? THE FUCKING POPULAR VOTE
Figuring out where the highest concentration of hexbears are by what state has the most psl votes
Fuck I woke up, saw the results and just realized I'm gonna have to deal with my lib civility teachers today. I'll just keep like a running tally of what identities I hear being blamed for kamala losing
The final crushing defeat of the ideology known as “gaslight, gatekeep, girlboss”
