Hopium? This blog is suggesting an incredible margin of victory for Harris.
VDH is the website. They are outright calling respected meta-polls FiveThirtyEight and RCP completely wrong. Their overall argument is that the Senate-race is incredibly favored in the Democrat’s favor.
I don’t know if I necessarily believe that argument. But its still interesting to think about. Discuss?
This is true, but the larger the margin the more difficult it makes it for them to contest.
Vote. Bring your friends and family to vote. Call up your friends in other states and make sure they have a voting plan.
Voting won’t magically fix our broken political machine but it will help us from sliding deeper in the hole. Vote like you’re taking a stupid little walk outside for your mental health during lockdown- not the only way you should be taking care of things but important maintenance nonetheless.
Large margin for Harris: “this is absurd, we should have won, look how much they cheated”
Small margin for Harris: “They cheated, we need to send electoral votes for Trump anyway. Stop the steal!”
Small margin victory for Trump: “we won even though they cheated! Big changes coming to prevent their cheating in future”
Huge victory for Trump: “we have a mandate to eradicate the wetbacks”
Yes, vote. See how big of a gap we can make, but remember that just that things won’t settle down after the election. January 6th proved that, and in retrospect we as a country got lucky in the outcome. It could have been far worse. They’ll contest any results even if there is no legal reason to, so just be ready.
