Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

Bullshit me and wife voted for Harris. Not all of Oklahomans are dumbfucks. I hope they all lose their social security starting with trump lover neighbor across the street.
A lot of people don't get how to parse statistical data, 67% of all votes isn't out of 100% of people is out of voter turn out, voter turn out isn't a % if all people is a % of registered voters, registered voters is out of eligible voters. So take 100% of the pop, minus those that can't legally vote, minus unregistered voters, minus registered who didn't vote, Then 67% of that number, which is going to be no where near 67% of the population at all.
So they apparently had 53% turn out of 2.4 million register voters, which is 1.27 million, out of a state population total of 4 million, which is 31% of the total pop. So 850,900 people voted for Trump a whopping 21.27% of the states total pop.
So not ALL by any stretch, and they had the worst registered voter turn out in the nation according to the reporting I'm seeing.
Also for no reason 18% of registered voters is 432,000 people, 10.57% of total pop, that's the number of people you'd have to swing to have flipped the state
