My white male privilege shields me from worrying excessively about this election. I voted for Biden and want him to win. Not because I necessarily support him or his policies, but because this is a referendum on Trump and his ineptitude.

Yeah, but I don't care about this board's 2018 congratulatory circle jerk. I want to relive the meltdown from 2016!

Did the D1P thread for the 2016 election get wiped out? It would be an interesting read at this point.

It would be funny if Trump pulls a 180 on November 4th and demands that all ballots be counted. lol.

The other/independent should break towards Biden as well, if we want to consider all of the polls that include likely voters.

I'm taking the entire week off.

Obama is doing a good job of ribbing Trump at this drive in rally. I hope Trump is watching!

I'm watching Obama on CNN right now. It's a bit weird having a rally and no one (that you can hear on TV) is responding, applauding, or cheering to his speech. It's a bit awkward because Obama will pause after a statement. It's like watching Friends without the laugh track.

The lame duck GOP will look at the massive surge in cases, a faltering economy, more job losses, and still say "We cannot afford to spend more on stimulus. OPEN UP!".

Can we summon heyyoudvd?

The glass ceiling has been shattered! 101,000+ new infections today in America as of 530 PM pacific time.

I don't do any of those things! I just shit post on this board and this board only.

Tell your dad to check his white privilege.

Plus Mondale was an incredibly weak candidate.

Damn Reagan was a beast in 84.

The 2.3 million is probably sitting in a Trump bank account.

Did you vote in person or mail your ballot in? If you sent your ballot in (or dropped it off a polling location) you can track it's status here: https://www.nvsos.gov/sos/elections/voters

I'm surprised that the DNC and other Democratic groups are not pumping money into Montana. It seems like that Senate race is easily attainable, compared to South Carolina, for instance.

Sounds exciting. What a time to be alive.

These are the three companies competing to land humans on the moon: Next year, NASA will down select to two companies, and they will be awarded contracts to land humans in the 2024-2025 timeline. All three companies have ambitious plans, with strengths and weaknesses pointed out in several different articles. But the plan would work like this: The Human Landing System (HLS) would be launched separately (and on commercial rockets) to the moon from the actual humans. The crew would launch from the Space Shuttle derived SLS launcher aboard the Orion capsule (both NASA owned and operated) and meet up in lunar orbit with the lander. The crew would transfer to the lander, perform their mission on the lunar surface, and then return to the SLS capsule in lunar orbit. The lander would stay in lunar orbit, and the capsule would return to Earth.

Those were the rules posted upthread. Each party gets 5 justices.

This is probably one the best things the Dems could do once they regain power. Also repeal the apportionment act.

There are a few problems creating a law that says party X gets to appoint 5 justices, and party Y gets to appoint 5 justices: 1. It codifies those two parties into law. That would create a precedent for sure. 2. What happens if one of those parties ceases to exist? Parties have come and gone in the past - but this law would still give power to a party that is extinct or at least crippled. 3. The remaining party in power would have no urgency in rewriting the law giving the new party any power in choosing Supreme Court Justices.

I undo my belt and unzip my pants (while standing, of course) to re-tuck my shirt. Laying down doing it makes absolutely no sense, because as soon as you sit up, the back of your shirt becomes untucked.
