regardless of the election’s results it’s obvious this country has gotten way more rightwing especially amongst men and i think a lot of that is what is fed to us online, we have to figure out a way to stop every dude under 35 from turning into crypto hitler

intense anti-incumbency backlash to inflation has been a global story for all the 2024 elections but you can't really see big electoral dividends from US outperformance on GDP/ investment/ employment/ wages

The overall story, so far: Nothing here looks like a story of various campaign decisions or a VP choice or big set piece speeches. It's an electorate mad at the incumbent WH's record and expressing it pretty uniformly everywhere, blue and red states alike.

This is worse than 2016 because people have lived through this shit for a decade and decided fuck it, Arby's being $5 is all that matters. This is an evil fucking country man and it doesn't even deserve the small cushion a Dem house might provide

Oconee County, Georgia (sub/exburban to Athens) has now counted all of its votes. Trump improved his margin there from 33.5% to 35.9%. His raw vote margin increased from 8,435 to 9,808.

"Dems held onto their 2016/2020 gains with white suburbanites, but bleed out with white and non-white working class voters simultaneously because of inflation" is one of the bad outcomes I was really, really hoping we'd manage to avoid.

@Libnex_ @tamuaggiedude What? No, it's both, there's an entire table underneath, you can add it up yourself. It's only missing a few eday precincts.

@AsInMarx @tamuaggiedude but the point is that it's only EVs, not the vote totals per se

@Libnex_ @tamuaggiedude that's just talking about the interactive map below it, not the vote totals

@socialconcarne Booned hasn't shifted to the left yet. It's at Trump+11 with about 3/4 counted at most
