2024 ELECTION THREAD
The next presidential race will be here soon! Please see current Bovada odds. Thoughts?
President Trump won in a massive landslide. But somehow, magically, senate seats in swing states went blue in WI, MI, AZ, NV
How does that happen when typically people who vote Republican vote Republican down the board?
My prediction is wide spread election fraud will be made public before President Trump officially takes office.
Would you consider Vermont a leftist state, possibly bordering on socialist given Bernie is one of their senators?
Governor is republican. Not uncommon at all for voters to do their own checks and balances with their votes.
Massive landslide is pretty hilarious. But if there's massive election fraud to be found, i guarantee you Playbig won't like it if it is.
Landslide? LOL.
The winner in presidential elections from the year 2000 until now by popular vote %...
2000 47.87% GW Bush, yup lost the popular vote
2004 50.73% GW Bush, barely over 50%
2008 52.93% Obama
2012 51.06% Obama
2016 46.09% Trump, yup lost the popular vote
2020 51.31% Biden
2024 49.85% Trump
Trump never cracked 50% of the popular vote in three election cycles. Americans voted this century (plus 2000) and only voted 51%+ for a certain group.
I think he just said that to keep you guys engaged. Don't take the bait.
It's a landslide in terms of geographic area red counties vs blue counties. That's why they call it a landslide and not a population slide.

It's not a landslide under any terms.
Biden in 2020 won a bigger margin than Trump in 2024, and it wasn't a landslide either.
It was a very close election where everything aligned positively for trump so he won 7/7 swing states, senate flipped 4 seats when only 1 was obvious and 2 were probable, a solid win, but very far from a landslide.
If that is a landslide what's Nixon winning 48 states ffs (and then being removed with an illegal coup)
It was a landslide of idiocy as far as predictions went.
I like gifs
I don't understand why you choose to use gifs when you can't make a firm point having actual reality on your side 100% on writing.
It's like you give up on the actual chances you have to be right and only insist when you are wrong, something I can't understand
There's a lot of really simple things that you don't understand Luciom.
I'll help you out on this one since I'm a nice guy. I use gifs because I enjoy using gifs. That gif makes me smile. I hope it gives some others a little joy, but if not, it worked for me so it was worth it.
My choice to use a gif or not has nothing to do with whether I can make a firm point or not. It has to do with how much fun I want to have. Not everyone here has to clean up after themselves any time they imagine they scored an "internet point."
I think this one might have come down to a language issue, though, honestly. Luckbox was making a pun (at least I hope so). "Landslide" because of the old "land doesn't vote" meme. Looks like he tried to make it obvious by referring to "population slide" as the alternative. My gif was a reaction to his joke, not a response to his point.
He obviously meant the British use of "billion."

this makes a lot of sense
Crazy how making it less convenient to vote results in fewer votes, huh? Almost like that's the entire republican strategy.
Pubs might try to switch the electorates to counties, in which case they landslide their way perpetually. What was the stat on counties? Something like 3500 to 1000, I think I heard? I'm sure they can come up with some rationale as to the fuzzy definition of states and counties from the 1700s.
