Completely unsurprised at Polls closing, we always knew (had hope) they would. I still think that they've got the Conservative and Labour vote figures transposed tho, up da yoof turnout.

OwlFancier posted:Does anyone have experience with what is involved in GOTV efforts? So I know what I'm getting into. Get a list of likely Labour voters, knock on their door, ask them politely if they've voted yet, if they say no ask them if they need any help getting to the polling station, if they say yes ask even more politely how they voted, report back to board runner.

I'm in one of the Extinction Rebellion private groups on Facebook, and I'm happy to see a flood of posts over the last week supporting Labour. The consensus seems to be that while the movement isn't supposed to be political, the environment is a political issue (duh) and Labour is the only real route to implementing the necessary changes. It's nice watching them very slowly radicalise

Also if you fancy going to Redruth they'll like your help there?

It's really cool that the 'media can lie minutely less' period mysteriously boosting Labour and only Labour has just been accepted as a completely accepted yet unexaminable force of nature by our entire media class. Like they admit it's a thing and say 'oh it's slower than last time' but this weird loving ongoing factoid that if it happened in a poorer country would at least get honourable mention in a few op eds is just nope, we're not gonna address it, we're all gonna pretend our media isn't a construct. We're gonna write about why this important election feels low-energy and lie-heavy and ignore literally everything we've been doing and you love it you love to see this poo poo you love that our entire social superstructure is a hollow broken barn full of dead cattle.

Well yeah but people might get funny about a big weirdo like me lurking around their house and fiddling with their letterbox in the early hours of the morning when it's pitch black. I mean I'll do it anyway just curious if I should anticipate being chased off with pitchforks.

The thing is that suddenly a lot of those who have been decrying the left have suddenly realised. "Oh no, we aren't court favourite anymore! WE MIGHT NOT BE HERE IF WE DON'T DO SOMETHING!!!" Fecklessness, pure and simple, but if it gets us a win or cripples Johnson then so be it. Also, I am hoping for at least a hung parliament on Thursday, I like to hope we can get something more, but I can only hope.

You know, doing a postal vote has kind of taken a bit of the gravitas out of it for me this time. Turns out I quite liked the little ritual of going down the polling station.

Even if the Tories win this election will see more blairites not running and being replaced with Labour socialists. Even in the worst case scenario we're shoring the party up to be truly red for the foreseeable future.

Yeah electoralism gives us useful moments but the fight for decency happen goes on every single day and the scum of the Labour party are on the back foot, whatever happens in this election there's a lot to feel good about.

Gonna refer this tweet to the Ash Sarkar piece about NRS class analysis linked upthread. Tl;dr: it's a worthless classification system in 2019 because it doesn't actually break along class lines the way it thinks it does. All polls are useless but this one is doubly so.

Southampton Itchen is listed as likely Tory. But, I think our huge ground game could be a difference maker there, especially on the day. I've taken the day off work, it's all to play for lads
