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.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I like this. Run up the score is such a simple elegant way of getting the point across to sports nerds. No reason to artificially keep the race close. We don’t get sportsmanship points for keeping it close. This is THE game, we want to win and we don’t care by how much. All that matters is we win. Go and score a touchdown/homerun/goal/point/strike/whatever by casting your vote and tell everyone else to do the same.
I have no idea what it means and it’s still a smooth way o’ sayin’ go vote
Thank you for saying this. Come November, one of two people will walk out with the victory: Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. Nobody else. We saw in 2016 and 2020 that the Shitgibbon can get LOTS of votes. We had to put up 7 million more votes than they did to win, and it was STILL close. Vote. Get your friends to vote. Get your friends to get their friends to vote. And help as many strangers who are voting Blue to vote as possible.
Nothing should stop you. Harris got this in the bag? No. She doesn't. Go vote. Trump's got no chance to win? No. He does. Go vote. Swifties coming out en masse and you don't need to worry? No. Trump's got fans of his own and you should always worry...and go vote. Go vote to counter every useful idiot and Republican Troll and Russian bot out there who has convinced a Greenie to do the stupid thing and vote third party.
Team Red doesn't deserve sportsmanship. Run that score up nation-wide. Check your registration deadline NOW and check your registration today, and repeat this check at the last day to register to vote. If you don't show up in the roles, you need to register. Screenshot that too so you have evidence you were registered to vote. Make sure you have your ID ready and understand all the hoops you have to jump through. Numerous organisations exist to help you:
Don't let anything get between you and voting Harris in the upcoming election.
Yeah, the goal shouldn't just be to beat him, it should be to beat him with such a wide margin that attempting another coup is frightening.
Polls are BS. VOTE
Vote. Make it a near certainty.
VOTE
Republicans are going to cheat as much as they can. Don't pay attention to polls because they don't take the cheating into account. VOTE.
Surveys / polls don't win elections.
Trump claiming he won regardless and trying to create as much trouble as possible is the most likely election outcome. I'm not getting my hopes up until President Kamala Harris is in the Whitehouse having a nice cup of tea. In fact after the last few years I'm not getting my hopes up about anything ever again unless there's absolute proof that it's real.
Just like Hillary in 2016.
Pretend she’s going to lose, VOTE, and remind everyone you know to vote. Drive friends to the polls, help them with their mail in ballots (legally, please), and get your absentee ballot ASAP if you need one. Democrats have a massive disadvantage in the electoral college, so every. single. person. has to vote. No excuses.
Vote!!!
...and then have lawfare ratfuckery and the Supremes hand it to Trump anyway...
We gotta be doing way more than just fucking voting. They sure are.
We need to be standing vigilant protecting election workers and the process, too.
Gotta win hard enough to make it impossible to ratfuck. None of that Florida swinging 1000 votes to decide the election bullshit. Way harder for them to justify bullshit if it’s just an utter trouncing.
Unfortunately, this doesn't account for the GOP plans to use their SCOTUS to tilt the balance in swing states. Vote and make sure others vote. And then be prepared for a total rat-fuck extravaganza.
Cool story bro
Go Vote.
Oh, well if top economists believe it now, it must be true.
The electoral college gap, SCOTUS interventions, and places like Georgia playing fuckery with vote certifications are not being properly factored in here.
At no point should any Harris voter feel comfortable or confident about this election.
Remember that Biden won the election by almost 5% of the popular vote, but he was 44,000 votes away in Arizona, Georgia, and Wisconsin from still losing. And Biden was from Pennsylvania and won it by a mere 1%.
