    Son is good to go as a California resident. Daughter as an out of state student, but registered here to vote.

    The Presidential election on the west coast hardly matters. We all know Harris will win in California, Oregon and Washington. What matters is the House and Senate. Then the local issues. That being said. At this point Trump seems to have the edge on the electoral map. Harris seems to be slipping in pretty much every battleground state. Looking to me like we have another 4 years of Trump and his family. Hope his handlers can hold him together this time. Just let him golf for four years. It's what he will want to do anyway.

    If I had to bet my house (don't have a dog), Harris wins, but it's close enough that if Trump had pulled Pennsylvania (I don't think he will), then it would have been enough to swing the election to him.

    Lol. It’s the literal opposite of a big deal.

    Never listen to polls.

    Just vote.

    I'm convinced polls are just made up to create chaos and ratings. They aren't representative of people anymore mainly because most people aren't answering phones of numbers they don't know or of texts they don't know.

    Just show up and vote. Fuck what all the media try to create for chaos.

    Every leading indicator says he is winning Pennsylvania. He’s most likely winning this election.

    No chance of that. He'll be firing any handlers who try to stand in the way of full blown fascism.

    She screwed up with Blacks. Not exactly sure how anyone could screw up with blacks more than trump but she has done it. That and of course "White Women" who incidentally never support a woman? Go figure?

    The absolute crazy part is he will not win the popular vote again just like every republican since Reagan. We seem to be the only country that cannot simply count who gets the most votes and give that person the victory. We also seem to be able to tally the tickets to a billion dollar lottery in seconds but can't seem to count votes in multiple days?

    The women are going to save this country. They are registering in insane numbers. They are going to vote en masse. I don't think it is even going to be that close. I bet Kamala gets about 320 electoral votes.

    I don't want to jinx it, but I'm pretty optimistic. I'll leave it at that for now. And it wouldn't shock me at all if it's not nearly as close as the networks are saying.

    I'll add one thing: I live in big Trump territory. At least it was the last two times. There only are a fraction of the signs and almost no flags and banners this time around. His supporters aren't quite as bold saying it in public and trying to pick fights with the progressives. It just feels like they aren't as sure or they're been exhausted by his antics.

    I live in Pennsylvania. I haven't seen anything to lead me to believe that. And I live in MAGA Central.
