What's My Line?

My Big Brother and I played just now. When we spoke he said he had been to the Cambria County courthouse area early today and said the parking lot and streets were filled with trumpie supporters in cars and trucks and on foot waving signs and shouting. "It was like a celebration!" he said. I am going to get on with my life and live the happiest, most civic-conscious life that I can. Those two desiderata may come into conflict. Pursuing happiness is what I am doing now. But I will not ignore our time. My thought for a few weeks has been to emulate Ieshia Evans, a nurse from Pennsylvania, in Taking a Stand in Baton Rouge on the header. Protest. Peacefully. Don't fight back even when faced with overwhelming power. I am thinking of going to Washington for trumpie's inauguration, wearing my all back suit, white shirt, skinny black tie with my black-on-white ANTIFA sticker on the back of my suit jacket and just stand there as Ieshia did eight years ago. 

For now, getting on with life:

Game                                            My Guess               B.B.'s Guess      Actual, Winner

Olé Miss-Georgia                         UGA -7                  UGA -6               UGA -2.5. B.B.

Vandy-COCKS!                           Vandy -3                 COCKS! -1         COCKS! -3.5. B.B.

ElleEsseEw-Bama                       AL -1                      AL -1                   AL -3. Push.

Pitt-Virginny         I messed this game up. Although my B.B. told me the game was in a lonely field beyond Fort Pitt, I had in my mind that it was in Charlottesville when I guessed. Nonetheless, I eat my mistakes                                       UVA -2                   Pitt -4                   Pitt -7.5. B.B.

Va. Tech-IPTAY                          IPTAY -15              IPTAY -20            IPTAY -6.5. Me. We were both so off that I blush to take the W but them's the rules.

Ind-Mi.                                        Ind. -8                    Ind. -9                   Ind.-14. B.B.

So my B.B. beat me handily, 4 games to 1 and another a push.

"America has given us an unprecedented and powerful mandate."--trumpie

He is correct, there. Republicans now have the entire government, the presidency, they won the Senate, retained a slim majority in the House of Representatives, and have the Supreme Court. They can work their will with no check on their power.

A Decision Desk update on Georgia

By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Trump is leading in Georgia, but the AP still sees a path — albeit a very narrow one — for Harris to take the lead in the state. Harris is bettering Trump in the votes cast before Election Day, and there are still potentially enough of those kinds of votes left to be counted to push her ahead of the former president. The race is still too early to call.

Publocc Call: Georgia to trumpie, presidency to trumpie. AP has not yet made call (but see below)

 

The Republicans Won the Senate.

trumpie +196,000 in Mi., +6.4%, 53% counted

Wayne County (Detroit) Kamala +40,000, 23% counted. Just doing the math in my head in the other counties, I don't think she can make up five times her Detroit margin. AP hasn't called the race. I don't see it happening so I'm going to call it, Michigan to trumpie, and with that the Blue Wall crumbles and trumpie becomes president.

Mi.

 

I agree. trumpie 230-210.

 

Kamala has a real good shot. I never thought she would win NC or GA. Always thought it was the Blue Wall.

"Feeling more like 2016"

Following the projected North Carolina win, CNN’s Chris Wallace said the election is currently feeling more like the 2016 election rather than the 2020 race. Wallace did acknowledge that there still are plenty of votes to still count.

“Generally speaking, he is over-performing what he did in 2020 and she is under-performing what Joe Biden did in 2020,” Wallace said.

AP Called: 230-205 EV's trumpie

AP Calls North Carolina for trumpie. EV's trumpie 230 Kamala 179

AP Called: trumpie 214 Kamala 179

But I don't think we're gonna win Virginny, and she will sink us.

We're behind 57,000...

And we're gonna win Wisconsin

We're behind ~37,000 and...

And we're gonna win Michigan

 

Pa. trumpie +2.9. Kamala's gonna win Pa.

AP Calls Iowa for trumpie

We're hurtin'. Called by AP: trumpie 198, Kamala 112

trumpie leading in 83 more, including Pennsylvania, Georgia, North Carolina, Wisconsin.

Oh boy. The ghost of the hidden trump voter rises.

 

It's becoming clear that Kamala's only path is through the Blue Wall. There have been no surprises. She is six behind in Georgia with 69% of vote counted; behind five in NC with 42% counted. I'm a little concerned about Virginia, trumpie +0.9, 52% counted, but if I remember correctly, the Tidewater region (Democratic) comes in late there.

With Forty-Six Percent of Vote Counted in Georgia trumpie leads 55%-44.4%

Total Votes Counted at This Minute: trumpie 53.9% Kamala 45.1%

Harris campaign bracing for weekslong election litigation

From CNN’s Kayla Tausche

Harris campaign officials have suggested that it could take days to declare a winner in the presidential race, but they’re bracing for legal fallout to extend for weeks, regardless of the outcome.

“There’s going to be a month of litigation hell,” one Harris campaign adviser told CNN.

Initial CNN Exit Poll: Georgia independent voters favor Trump over Harris

 Vice President Kamala Harris is largely holding on to President Joe Biden’s 2020 coalition among young voters and Black voters in Georgia, according to the initial results of CNN’s exit poll among voters in the state. But Peach State voters who call themselves political independents now favor former President Donald Trump over Harris — a shift from 2020 when Biden won that group.

Roughly 86% of Black Georgia voters say they cast their ballot for Harris, as do about 6 in 10 voters younger than 30 — in both cases, generally similar to Biden’s numbers in 2020.

As was the case in 2020, suburban voters are closely split. But where Biden won slightly over half of political independents in 2020, now a slim majority say they’re backing Trump.

Guess which county?

The issues with scanning ballots in Cambria County threatened to disenfranchise voters in the critical swing state, a local election official said Tuesday.

They have to use scanners 'cause they don't have enough fingers.

Pro-Trump activist Charlie Kirk says voter turnout is 'not where we want it to be'

Charlie Kirk, a staunch Trump supporter and founder of pro-Trump activist group Turning Point Action, wrote in a post on social media site X that voter turnout has been disappointing, in an apparent effort to rally followers to vote.

"Turnout is mixed and not where we want it to be," Kirk wrote. "We need more people to vote. We can't let turnout flatline. Text everyone you know. Make more noise. We need more."

Official Prediction: Kamala Will Win

I predict that she will hold the Blue Wall states, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin, lose all of the sunbelt swing states, North Carolina, Georgia, Arizona; and lose Nevada. I predict that she will win a grainbelt state, Iowa, giving her 276 Electoral Votes.

Natty's model runs has Kamala winning 50 times today, to 49 times for trumpie. JHK flipped from trumpie +2 to Kamala +1. Split Ticket, Kamala a one-point improvement. 270 still has trumpie winning 51-49, it was 52=48 on Oct. 31.

Our Time

The history of our time will be written. It will be written either expansively as a great demarcation marking the end of the First Republic or, as was the MacArthur period was, a "grave constitutional crisis" come in a pulsing spasm of  "ridiculousness", truncated to 2016-2024. Tomorrow we will see which it will be.

The Lion Sleeps

Well, I guess there's no sense checking the polls and forecasts anymore.

There are decades when nothing happens and weeks when decades happen.

Eleven's latest "season" will be five days tomorrow. I think that's how long her last was. l would pray if there was a God. First time a female has cum on me three times in four days in decades. 

My So-Called Life

 This is just one of those leetle pieces of "evidence" that informs my "calm" that Kamala is going to win. You don't hear Democrats saying similar things, and Kamala is calmala.

Ay, yie, yie

LITITZ, Pa. (AP) — Donald Trump gave a profane and conspiracy-laden speech two days before the presidential election, talking about reporters being shot and suggesting he “shouldn’t have left” the White House after his 2020 loss to Democrat Joe Biden.

In remarks Sunday that bore no resemblance to his standard speech in the campaign’s closing stretch, the former president repeatedly cast doubt on the integrity of the vote and resurrected old grievances about being prosecuted after trying to overturn his defeat four years ago. Trump intensified his verbal attacks against a “grossly incompetent” national leadership and the American media, steering his rally in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, at one point on to the topic of violence against members of the press.

...

...argue that he can only lose to Democrat Kamala Harris if he is cheated, even though polls suggest a tight race.

Some of his allies, notably former chief strategist Steve Bannon, have encouraged him to prematurely declare victory on Tuesday even if the race is too early to call. That’s what Trump did four years ago, kicking off a process of fighting the election results that culminated in the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol.

...

“It’s a crooked country,” Trump said. “And we’re going to make it straight. We’re going to make it straight.”

...

[In] his next speech a few hours later at an airport in Kinston, North Carolina, drifted between prepared remarks and familiar stories. Trump praised David McCormick, the businessman running for Senate in Pennsylvania, appearing to briefly lose track of his location but quickly recovering.

“Where’s David? Is he around some place?” Trump said. “You know we just left him. He’s a great guy.”
