  1. You mean the air-brushed one that changes the shape of his face? I'd say at least 20 years
  2. Although hours have been extended thanks to bomb threats, so who knows?
  3. What cities are in Hamilton County? I have a brother who lives in South Bend but have no idea what counties are where.
  4. I'm not going to watch, but I remember I followed the coverage for '08 on BBC's website. When each state was called, a radio-clock like counter flipped the number of elector votes each candidate had earned. California and Texas were pretty fun to watch. I wonder if it still does that?
  5. I think you're right. Or at least they're hoping people will go home and stay there.
  6. Somebody in a FB group I'm in shared that people in Nevada need to answer their phones, in case their ballots need to be 'cured.' Anybody who knows people from Nevada should share.
  7. As warped as it sounds, there may be T voters who think they're saving democracy, too.
  8. Maybe Vance knows how to play fiddle? Hopefully I'll be deported to someplace nice, but I doubt it. P.S. Doesn't vance mean bedbug in Yiddish? I seem to remember that from the crossword puzzle episode of MASH.
  9. If the ads I described a couple of pages ago are any indication, Drumpf, or whoever made those commercials, is hoping that women will vote for him because they're afraid that the 'illegals' and scary inner city people are going to attack them. And of course, the man who won't share an umbrella with his wife when walking in the rain is the one who will protect them.
  10. I agree. Unfortunately, a lot of people don't think they'll ever be affected (as we've seen recently, in at least one of the cases in the news right now) by these bans until they do find themselves in the situation.
  11. For some reason I especially want WI out of those 4. Maybe it's because a good friend of mine has an adult daughter with special needs and she's scared of what might happen to her.
  12. While I'm not following the news, he's already saying that he has won, as long as there's no fraud of course.
  13. Is the weather as nice there as it is here? It's a beautiful day to walk to the polls here.
  14. It is kind of upsetting that we're depending on high turnout from women, when men will benefit from a Harris presidency at least as much. Steady infrastructure spending, reliable funding for such departments as the NIH and USDA, and economists that agree that Harris would be better for the economy? Sounds like a win whether you're a man or woman. And.... just because women want to retain their rights, doesn't mean we want men to lose theirs and doesn't mean we think men are evil. Sigh...
  15. I am sorry. That is one of the worst things about this-families being divided. I may sound melodramatic but I do think it's the truth.
  16. That will be true if the traditional Northern Republicans are voting in droves. While unfortunately some of them drank the Kool Aid, many people I grew up with were even more adamantly pro-choice than I was.
  17. I am about to go to a followup appointment for my foot, then I have a few errands to do before I come home and read a couple of books that I got from the library. Sadly, when I'm anxious my stomach won't allow me to even eat very much, let alone drink. I haven't had a drink in more than a decade anyway, though.
  18. On another note, hopefully the right wing ads I'm seeing on this page will go away too.
  19. Will the Medicare part C ads go away soon? Unfortunately the $9/month life insurance ads last all year.
  20. I have books to read. I've voted, donated, and encouraged people to vote as much as I could.
  21. Looks like I spoke too soon. Last night while watching the Food Network I saw a disgusting Drumpf commercial filled with lies about immigrants, crime, and the economy. I feel sick. As I've said before, I work with a lot of immigrants that Drumpf likes to demonize-from Latin America and Haiti. They are good people, and hard workers. You know what part of the MSG rally chilled me to the bone as much as the Puerto Rico joke? Miller and his "America is for America only!" speech.
  22. Most of the ads here seem to be aimed at NH. If nothing else, we need to reform the electoral college so we can spread the anxiety more equally.
  23. So how do we distinguish between wishful thinking and a real reason to be optimistic? I just happened to see a post on twitter (I know, I need to get off of there) by a MAGAt who gleefully claims that since he saw a row of MAGAt decked pickup trucks on a highway, that NY is absolutely in play. Yeah, right.
  24. My mother worked on Clinton's campaign in 1992. She said he could make you feel like you were the only, most important person in the room. And my Mom wasn't normally swayed by people in that way.
  25. One take on why we're all so anxious: https://www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnbc-opinion/2024-election-polls-trump-harris-close-rcna178483
