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'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.

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

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

Crazy thing is the economy is likely the leading factor for why he won but trump tariffs will end up making the inflation worse

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

CNN:

Significant piece of data coming from early exit polling. Trump is up by 11 points with independents in Georgia, according to the initial exits. Biden won independent voters by 9 points in Georgia. That's a big swing.

lol, they're really losing to Trump twice.

top-cop 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?

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

"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"

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

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.

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.

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

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.
