Not trolled exactly, but A) theres probably a lot of people watching Fox News who don't normally watch it and B) spite/contrarianism is a more powerful motivator to bother voting in one of their pushpolls than vague agreement. So genuinely held beliefs and people voting only once, but not exactly a slice of their main demographic.

As to anyone taking about Trump campaign internals, I feel like they are idiots and wouldn't actually know if they were performing well or not, but the Biden campaign seems to say least have expertise in that area.

Getting more and more anxious by the minute.

Thread refresh rate increasing by the minute.

Here in Tampa it was super packed at ~8:15am. Line was too long so I drove home. Went back at ~1:45pm and hardly anyone there. I assume it's packed again now.

Saw maybe 5 groups of Trump supports on the corner at lights throughout my day. Saw 2 for Biden. Flicked off a middle-aged, bleached blonde lady in a Porsche SUV with the license plate "PORSCHER" that cut me off and almost ran me off the road as she was honking support at the Trumpers.

Just ran out and found a 12-pack of Coors Light Seltzer for $11.59 because a) I hate myself, b) am poor af, c) am way too sober for all of this.

In other news, not only is it election day, but it's Shave Nero Day (he was super matted, unfortunately).

Before:


After:


We had 4 cats for a long rear end while and are down to one 15 year old rear end in a top hat that still resents the day we brought her home from the dump when she was a kitten. Quarantine has my wife steady looking at cat ads now and I've said there are very few cats I will say yes too. A big orange ginger boi, a grey fluffy Nebelung boi, or any variety of Maine Coon.

This is my friend Greyg. He is the best, even if he gets boogers some times.

This model predicted the Tories' win in the 2019 UK elections, and actually underestimated them there.

There were bad signs for Clinton in 2016 that people were deliberately ignoring, though. There's considerably less of that tonight.

In 2016, phoned banked several times for Hillary (cause I saw how hosed up Trump was). We were almost exclusively calling into Arizona and Nevada. I did a shift on election day and knew we were in deep poo poo when we were calling Michigan
