I see you're in Round Rock. Are you close enough to Austin for that to now be a blue area? . | |||

You can't use your phone while waiting in line in Texas? That's just stupid. I thought Texas was a free state but you all some some really restrictive stuff. | |||

^^^^^^^^ fwbulldog, that sucks. Here in Tarrant County, by the time the doors opened at 7am, there were 150 people in line, and some were on their phones, but put them away when they entered the voting room. I wore a Rush Limbaugh hat, my usual hat for voting, and was not hassled, somebody else had a Let's Go Brandon shirt, no issues. The poll workers, mostly older people who have been doing this for years, wore red clothing and U.S. flag attire. They were happy, friendly, and broke out in applause when they came acorss a first-time voter.

That's nuts. Totally different vibes at the polling place I went to today. Everyone was relaxed and pleasant. Lots of MAGA shirts and hats. The ladies working there were pleasant. It was in a church. ______________________________________________ Carthago delenda est | |||

I'm glad that Rogan has endorsed Trump. But he did it on Monday, yesterday. Better late than never, but what in Hell has he been thinking the past month? He would likely have had a much bigger effect if he had endorsed a month ago. ______________________________________________________ "You get much farther with a kind word and a gun than with a kind word alone." | |||

As we head into the early evening, anticipating results, a reminder to everyone here to Be. COOL. We're going to maintain an even strain. We're not going to get ahead of ourselves. We're not going to anticipate disaster. If we're assured of winning, the party starts. If defeat shows itself, we're going to maintain our composure, and woe unto the member(s) who declare that it's the end of the world or the end of the United States. If you haven't yet done so, read the first post in the link I provided. I'll see you on the beach. ____________________________________________________ "I am your retribution." - Donald Trump, speech at CPAC, March 4, 2023 | |||

Exit Polls Results Are In. Here's How Things Are Looking. https://townhall.com/tipsheet/...-exit-polls-n2647303 We have the first exits for the 2024 race, and one thing is clear: people are angry. Seventy-two percent of voters are angry or dissatisfied with the country's state. Only 41 percent of voters approve of Joe Biden’s job performance: Again, there is not much regarding crosstabs (yet) on women, working-class voters, union workers, and the like. However, that’s a strong headwind Kamala and the Democrats face if nearly three-fourths of the country thinks the nation is in the toilet. In October, CNN’s Harry Enten warned that no incumbent party has ever kept the White House when the country's direction is that low. Over at the Associated Press, immigration and the economy reign supreme in voters' minds. Voters said the economy and immigration are the top issues facing the country. Still, the future of democracy was also a leading motivator for many Americans casting a ballot in Tuesday’s presidential election. AP VoteCast, an expansive survey of more than 110,000 voters nationwide, found a country mired in negativity and desperate for change as Americans faced a stark choice between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris. Trump, the Republican, sought to define the election as a referendum on the Biden-Harris administration and blamed it for inflation and illegal crossings at the U.S. border with Mexico. Harris, the Democrat, tried to brand herself as being more focused on the future and described Trump as old, tired and a threat to the Constitution. About 4 in 10 voters considered the economy and jobs to be the most important problem facing the country, as frustration with inflation spiking in 2022 lingered in the form of higher grocery, housing and gasoline costs. Roughly 2 in 10 voters said the top issue is immigration, and about 1 in 10 picked abortion. […] What unified the country was a sense that the status quo hasn’t been working. About 8 in 10 voters want at least “substantial change” in how the country is run, including about one-quarter who said they want complete and total upheaval. But what that change would look like is a source of dissent and division These aren’t the numbers you want to see as a Democrat right now. Of course, the 'democracy' people are Kamala supporters because they're from Pluto, not planet Earth. *** More at link _________________________ "Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it."

To be fair to him, perhaps he didn't want to throw out the endorsement until he was certain Kamala wouldn't be on his show. ~Alan Acta Non Verba NRA Life Member (Patron) God, Family, Guns, Country Men will fight and die to protect women... because women protect everything else. ~Andrew Klavan | |||

There is no way it is that high. They are skewing their polls by at least 10%. . | |||

Any bets phone calls are being made at this moment to share the results with one or both candidates? nvm - looks like numbers are already being reported? Life moves pretty fast.
