It’s probably time for a new one of these.

NE-2 went to Biden so a tie is unlikely unless he loses NV so stop posting about that.

Other admins, please replace this when there is a result. I’m going to bed.

And it won’t be open again until every single one of your lib VOTES is counted!

The 🇱🇷 2020 🇱🇷 American 🇱🇷 Presidential 🇱🇷 Elections 🇱🇷 are the single most important political event since The Last Fascist was VOTED 🔫 OUT 🔫. We on the admin team see it as our duty to enforce the views of our audience by any parasocial means necessary.

As a nacho-socialist cabal, we see no path to revolution other than by focusing the majority of our leisure time on consuming bougie media. Media that is obsessed with the details of an election we decided our preferences on months ago, if not years ago. Here’s the bottom line: Voting makes you a good person and not voting makes you a bad one. Don’t believe us? Just ask Lenin:

A democratic republic is the best possible political shell for capitalism, and, therefore, once capital has gained possession of this very best shell (through the Palchinskys, Chernovs, Tseretelis and Co.), it establishes its power so securely, so firmly, that no change of persons, institutions or parties in the bourgeois-democratic republic can shake it.

We must also note that Engels is most explicit in calling universal suffrage as well an instrument of bourgeois rule. Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down, never gonna run around and desert you. Universal suffrage, he says, obviously taking account of the long experience of German Social-Democracy, is “the gauge of the maturity of the working class. It cannot and never will be anything more in the present-day state.”

See? We can’t let capital take control of this “very best shell”! Turtles belong to the people! And the way we do that is by voting for posts.

No matter who wins, do we still see America plummeting headfirst into the Cool Zone next year?

I have to think so. Even if Biden wins, not having the senate will give them an excuse to not do anything when they were basically already planning on that. 2022 midterms will be an absolute bloodbath.

Currently the most likely outcome is Biden win’s the most narrow victory possible with just 271 votes, Dems lose seats in the house but retain a majority, and the senate remain’s Mitch McConnel’s Republican senate. All this, AT BEST, adds up to a lame duck presidency.
