Folks, Wake Up. The Next 36 Hours Are Key.

[writes3000]

Biden & Harris are on track to win this election. We’ve flipped Arizona, NE2 and Wisconsin (most likely). There’s a clear path to flipping Michigan and Georgia as well.

This was a rough ride. We didn’t the big wave we expected. I get the disappointment.

But while we’re licking our wounds and being self reflective, the Republicans are going to go on a messaging blitz that they won the election.

We MUST communicate excitement, confidence and moral clarity that Joe Biden and Kamala Harris will win/have won the White House. They are going to need our energy and our active engagement in messaging.

We have to assert this with family, friends and coworkers. We need to be first with accurate information before Republican bluster takes over.

This must start today. It’s crucial for us and anyone on our side.

If we end up flipping three to five states from an incumbent President, that’s HUGE.

We need to own the strength that comes from that.

We have to win the next 36 hours worth of messaging. It’s so important.

[TigressDem]

1. Dump already has court challenges up for NV and PA

COUNT ALL VOTES is all I gotta say.

FUCK YOU TRUMP, keep counting the votes, peeps. Keep counting.

[writes3000]

3. The court of public opinion is powerful. That will get set tomorrow. We have to be loud.

[TigressDem]

6. Where's my megaphone? nt

[Mersky]

8. So what about baked-in court challenges - eff 'em

There’s 238,000 dead Americans that disapprove of his “work.”

Count the votes.

[onetexan]

2. Yup, onwards &upwards, no time to lose in self pity

[writes3000]

5. Trump's lead in Michigan is down to 56K. 12% of precincts left to fully report.

[onetexan]

7. &it w keep going down till Biden overtakes him

[getagrip_already]

30. down to about 10k votes now....

And remaining votes are from dem strongholds.

[2naSalit]

4. I need to move to a new state.

This one turned over to the oligarchs so I will need to move to survive.

[CountMyVote4Reality]

23. Liberal Evangelical Colonists Needed

These Southern states could use an additional Liberal aka Democratic voice:

Mississippi
Alabama
Georgia
South Carolina
Tennessee

Some (Georgia) are in better place than others. They could all use another "not a redneck idiot."

[2naSalit]

37. No thanks...

I am old and tired from fighting over rights and I also need to be in Northern latitudes, can't handle heat or humidity. I'll stay in the Rockies, just need to figure out where.

[Rstrstx]

9. Wake up! I haven't been able to sleep a wink

I’m gonna try and get some rest here but was hoping for some more good news out of Michigan first (like, Biden pulls ahead)

[ms liberty]

10. We need to remember that we started this election season

Not expecting to win the Senate. The most important thing at the moment is we get the WH.
And as an NC'er, I could scream at Cal Cunningham for not keeping it in his frickin' pants. I am furious.

[mnhtnbb]

27. Cunningham self destructed. Knowing the history of John Edwards.

WTF is wrong with these men?

Republicans don't care about a p*ssy grabbing President--who pays off a porn star to keep her quiet-- accused by who knows how many women of sexual assault? Or a judge with a history as a sexual predator and would be rapist being appointed to the Supreme Court. But, their hypocrisy comes rolling out when a Democrat has a texting scandal?

I hope the fu*king damn rapture does come and take all these hypocrites away. Or maybe it will be those of us who live by rules of decency, honor, and respect who will be raptured and the hypocrites will get to stay? Last laugh on them?

I am just so distressed.

[2naSalit]

11. The soul of America is gravely wounded...

It's hard to keep up beat at the moment, I have to consider relocating and I am very upset about it.

[cwydro]

12. This is why I kept posting in the "landslide" threads that I never count chickens.

Looks like a lot of broken eggs lying about this morning.

[2naSalit]

13. I have been hopeful all along...

but like you, not convinced of anything.

[cwydro]

14. Yes, I kept hope, but people bouncing all over this board screaming landslide, humiliation, he's

done and on and on really got on my nerves.

Almost as much as the posters who kept lecturing us not to worry, and if we did, we should keep it to ourselves. Pffft

[2naSalit]

15. I have been trying to keep calm...

But right now I'm really having to deal with my immediate survival and wondering how long before I have enough info to start making my plans for relocation, and I have no idea where I'd go. Montana is about to become a notional problem if the projections are right. There will be no reason to come here for vacation anymore or anything else. The Rs nearly swept the state and that's a threat to my well being on many levels.

[cwydro]

16. I hear ya.

If this ends badly, I’ve got so much to do just to begin relocating.

[bucolic_frolic]

18. I think some were trolls here to plant overconfidence and diminish our resolve

Usually they are new posters. Like you I noticed and called a few out on it. I was told the a bold front was more important so that we didn't become "demoralized". So I hear ya.

[cwydro]

19. Well, I could name three longtime posters right off the top, perhaps they're trolls. I doubt it.

Same ones predicted huge win in 2016. They always brag about their prediction skills, and they’re always wrong.

No ne ever calls them on it,

[bucolic_frolic]

21. You're right, there are 2 types

Our true long time Democrats who are overconfident, and newbie intruders who work for the other side. They feed the same problem.

[cwydro]

35. Yes..

I think you nailed it.

[yaesu]

22. I cringed whenever landslide or tsunomi were mentioned, not becuase I didn't want it but because I

knew it was a bridge too far. Repukes will probably keep the Senate, gained seats in the House & will be a major problem for a president Biden. They had a good night, fascism had a good night, very disgusted with this country.

[cwydro]

36. Yep, that and the blue wave.

Always posted with a sneer at anyone who was worried.

[TheRickles]

17. NV and WI look good, and metro Detroit is still 30% uncounted.

Given the high Dem penetration in Detroit, that should provide enough of a margin to swing Michigan Blue.

[Illumination]

20. Thank you writes3000 for your positive messages!...

[Mr. Ected]

24. I spent 3 years and 11 months despairing that the election would be stolen

And the past month enlivened by the poll results, not necessarily believing them, but deriving strength and hope from them.

I still believe. I will spread it far and wide. But after a win, I plan to reflect on the shithole country we live in, knowing that so many of my fellow Americans are either ignorant, apathetic or evil.

Our country has so much unrealized promise, but as long as we're so heavily populated by The Others, we will all be left wanting.

[MyMission]

25. Thanks for the pep talk

Remaining upbeat and positive is important for several reasons.
For the energy being put out, we must still send those positive hopeful vibes.
For not allowing ourselves to become dejected, discouraged, disengaged.
For showing the cult that we won't be conned or concede to them now, or ever!

So I'm working today, with a red menace who fills in once in a while. Perhaps we work together 3-5 days per year. Why does today have to be one of them?!?

I will be positive and hopeful. I avoid discussing politics with him, but he needles me about crap and sometimes I have to reply to him. If he gloats about a tRump victory, I think I'll laugh at him

Thanks again!

[Jon King]

26. Agreed, remember its only Trump....

Once he loses the spell will be gone for at least a few % of Repubs and that is enough for now. It is a cult of personality, once he is out of office it will be very hard for Repubs to replace that magic spell on enough voters to duplicate 2016 and 2020.

[JT45242]

28. There is absolutely nothing redeemable about our country after yesterday

A sitting president and his enablers have

1. Lied over 20,000 times on tape over a 4 year span
2. Committed war crimes by separating children from their parents and putting them in cages and then losing them
3. Committed war crimes against its own people by using chemical warfare agents on peaceful protesters in front of a church
4. Caused the deaths of 200,000 more than comparable rates of other countries during a pandemic (by comparing to South Korea)
5. Is a huge security risk based on debt owned by hostile powers

and Trump still got more than 40% of the vote.

The Senate will be under McConnell. Not a single piece of legislation will pass... period. Then the rethuglicans and the 'whataboutism' and 'bothsiders' will blame Biden for nothing happening.

The American experiment in democracy has failed. We lasted longer than any other before we fell to a dictatorial party but the experiment is over.

I am sickened to my stomach and just hope that some country will look at my skills and let me in since I come from a shithole country with Covid rates that are higher than any other in the industrialized world.

We can't put lipstick on a pig... McConnell already showed that he will do anything to hold onto power...

Graham, Collins, and McConnell all had disapproval ratings near 60% and they still won re-election. There is no hope. This is like watching Palpatine and "this is the sound of democracy dying."

[RobinA]

31. That's The Conclusion

I reached sometime around 10 last night. If Biden wins, great. But really, other than Trump out, what have we got? Nothing will get done, and we are a nation half full of people who would vote for Donald Trump with no illusions as to what he is. That’s pretty darn scary to me.

[Ligyron]

39. If Biden becomes President, there were a LOT of crimes committed by the enablers like Barr.

We will have a Justice Department to prosecute them with ... so there's that.

[whathehell]

33. All the votes aren't even close to being COUNTED yet..

so could we stop with the scorched earth, pants wetting melodrama already?

[Nitram]

29. Dude, we are wide awake. Keep your pants on!

[Sugarcoated]

32. Not everybody understands

I do. I do exactly what you're saying on several social media platforms. Of course face to face also but there's less face-to-face interaction these in the days of covid.

[writes3000]

34. Thank you for doing it.

[Sugarcoated]

38. Proud to
