    Although I’ve been pointing at these numbers as well, it’s worth noting that the effects of the electoral college is still important.

    Dem votes were up in PA and GA from 2020. Maybe other swing states as well, haven’t looked. Trump’s just went up more.

    Either way, I think all of the brilliant minds who decided to withhold their votes for Kamala for whatever reason maybe weren’t being very pragmatic given the reality of the binary outcome set.

      We must be truly desperate to look to the electoral college for help.
