and MAGA has a whole dirty play book ready to use

this is the part that scares me.  i think kamala has the votes to win, the obstacle will be the court cases and all the other pseudo-legal shenanigans that MAGA will attempt.  i got chills when both trump and johnson confirmed that they have a "secret plan" which will be revealed after the election.  if johnson is still speaker on Jan 6, i.e. GOP keeps control of the House, things are going to get really wild. 

Trump is coming to Salem, Virginia!!! Who came up with this, NKOTB??

he has cancelled events in PA in favor of newly-announced events in VA, NM and some other state i can't recall at the moment… pundits on the street (and by street i mean twitter) posit it's because internal polling shows that trump has lost PA, in part due to the puerto rican vote.  TBD, but dropping rallies in a key swing state is an interesting move.

That would be awesome!

Dropping rallies in PA is a big deal
So I thought VA was in the bag, but there are a lot of trumpets in VA

What if their internals say they've won PA and now they're going for the longer shots?

So who are we sending to the Trump rally tomorrow?


I nominate NKOTB

Its over 3.5 hours away!  I barely even want to drive to Springfield. No thanks!

Is it weird that the end of Hutch's endless doomposting ranks in my top 3 reasons why I will be delighted to have this election in our collective rearview mirror?

I am positively upbeat lately!! What are you talking about

Buddy, you've seemed like you're in an election depression cycle for months.

Anyone else get one of those creepy AF this is how you and your redacted neighbors recently voted letters in the mail this week?

Well at least in Maryland the AG, etc took notice

Trump lagging in early vote with seniors in Pennsylvania, a red flag for GOP

Donald Trump is lagging Kamala Harris in Pennsylvania early voting with a critical and once-reliably Republican constituency: seniors.

It’s a warning sign for the former president that reflects early vote data and polling across the battlegrounds, after Republicans won the senior vote in each of the last five presidential elections.

In Pennsylvania, where voters over the age of 65 have cast nearly half of the early ballots, registered Democrats account for about 58 percent of votes cast by seniors, compared to 35 percent for Republicans. That’s despite both parties having roughly equal numbers of registered voters aged 65 and older.

and based on anecdotal evidence, there are more Rs voting D than there are Ds voting R, further reinforcing the D's advantage.

Where are we celebrating Tuesday? I might stay home with my family.
