Let me tell you right now what your favorite political sites will be telling you all day, and well into the evening. about your favorite candidate's chances: "He's doing great and has a wide open path to victory."
If and when you start seeing increasing references to how the opponents are cheating, you'll then know your candidate is in trouble.
Your favorite political site's analysis of your favorite candidate's chances are like BSUkid's analysis of BSU basketball's championship chances.

You don't think anyone's favorite candidate is a woman?

The polling place where I vote is a 3 hour wait.
In 2016 I walked right in.
One thing for sure is that Trump is responsible for what will likely be a record turnout.

Some of you may appreciate the significance of the behavior of the Dow Jones the last few days.

Also, if your favorite site starts going on about how the electoral college system needs to be changed....consider that a tell.

Criticizing the electoral college will not be significant news. No change there from a year ago, say.

2 hour wait to vote in Shelby County, AL. Many of the offices up for election had no one running on the Dem ticket. Tubberville and Trump country.
Go Cards!

Guess #1: Their money invested in the Biden family isn't going to payoff.

So if your favorite sites starts harping about it on election night....what does that tell you? There has been harping since 2016 though. It was designed to favor small states in population. It's reality. Has an odd history as we often added or not added states with that in mind. Not sure it can be defended, but it's not going away.

States rich in natural resources, but lacking large populations, would be better off leaving the union and forming their own countries rather than being sucked dry by states with large populations. I'm thinking in particular states like Alaska, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, etc. In fact, probably the only states that should stay would be California, New York, Illinois, and maybe Texas in what is now called the United States.

Its an ingenious device to give less-populated states a voice in our federal government. I wish they had explained it better in school.
