Welcome to c/electoralism! politics isn't just about voting or running for office, but this community is.

Please read the Chapo Code of Conduct and remember...we're all comrades here.

Shitposting in other comms please!

put all of your election posting here so it doesn't bother anyone else!

from @[email protected]:

For Agitprop purposes, I’m asking comrades to help aggregate any and all effortpost responses, critiques, or general thoughts that you have seen or written pertaining to yesterday’s U.S. election that you think have standalone value for discussion either online or IRL.

I made a post for that purpose here, and ideally it can be used not only for general discussion, but as a reference for well thought out responses in discussions about the election to save all of us some brainpower.

No shitposts please, as we’d like to highlight some comrades’ actual effort in constructing responses or analysis, but humor is 100% welcome to help make your point!

It seems like every election year, without fail, I am exposed to an inordinate amount of liberals who have the nerve to cry foul (toward leftists usually) about not voting/ voting third party

So fucking tired dude

I know this is petty, but if Trump ends up winning I'm going to troll reddit libs for like a solid week about how Putin is now in command of the country. data-laughing putin-wink

"It doesn't matter who we vote for in (my state) because of the electoral college" seems to be hitting libs harder than usual this season, lol

Easy to get them on the same page as me again by saying "it's too bad Trump didn't get his head blown off that one time"

r/politics speedrunning all stages of grief

Come on guys. Kamala was just a really dogshit candidate, regardless of Trump running or not. It's okay to admit that.

Reporting from MSNBC - NBC just called Pennsylvania for Trump. Rachel Maddow is increasingly stuttering, she's blinking a lot, her eyes are glassy.

EDIT: They pan the shot away from the panel to Trump's empty podium because the state of Rachel, Jen Psaki, and Joy Reid facial expression. No more visual on the state of their faces, just voiceovers.

Back to you, hexbear election megathread

Bluesky libs sure didn't complain about this before the election. I'm not exaggerating that this moment of clarity post made me laugh pretty hard for more than five seconds.

sure doesn't feel like "let's run for the Reasonable Moderate Republican Vote" worked out real well, huh

Thesis: The reason dems are losing ground with POCs isn't because Trump is winning the men over; but because the older non-white generations have over the last 4 years been decimated at a higher relative rate thanks to covid and it's knock-on effects

Would you mind changing the title to US or United states election day? The US is not the Americas, and the US's use of america to refer only to itself and exclude central, south america, and the carribean has a long history that goes back to it's imperial ambitions to create a "greater america".

I suggest the use of the alternate spelling “Amerikkka”

At this point dems are putting women out there on purpose to lose so people get this idea that women can’t run anything. I literally can’t think of anything else, how the fuck do you lose the POPULAR VOTE???? THE FUCKING POPULAR VOTE

One of the few funny things that will happen is that Elon Musk will have meltdown if Kamala wins

Everyone here saying she’s cooked but don’t be so quick to judgement. Every state that has been called was obviously going to either trump or Harris. For the more contested states though this race is so neck and neck though that “leading” doesn’t really mean anything when looking at the map. You’ll need to wait until the vast majority of counties, especially the large metro areas, have reported. This is one of the reasons why the chuds all called fraud during 2020 - they saw a nearly all red map early on turn blue by the time they got up the next morning

Any lib who asks why I didn't vote is getting my international adoption/citizenship rant

I can't even open a savings account I do not give a fuck about which genocidal xenophobic warmonger wins

spoilerjill stein. claudia de la cruz would have had to be a write-in candidate.

Just voted in new york.

For some reason they were using sharpies, not even fine point ones to fill out rhe ballot.

Could not even kinda of legibly write Claudia De La Cruz in the space. Oh well guess we'll find out if my vote was counted when there's zero votes for her in the county.

roommate voted trump just because the rest of his family would and because he admittedly "[didn't] know anything about politics" agony-soviet

to his credit we're in south carolina so neither his vote or mine for de la cruz mattered
