"The moral test of government is how that government treats those who are in the dawn of life, the children; those who are in the twilight of life, the elderly; those who are in the shadows of life; the sick, the needy & the handicapped.” Hubert Humphrey First pitch, Minneapolis

There was a bomb threat to the Government Services Center in West Chester, PA. It's being evacuated. Voter Services is located there, and in-person ballots are delivered after 8 pm. Mail-in ballots are canvassed and tabulated at a different location. I will update shortly.

7M people don’t vote in CA, 7M in NY, 7M in Texas…all because of the electoral college. They don’t think their vote matters. The system doesn’t work for the people of this country.

We're a long way from knowing the results. Every state Trump has won so far is a solidly red state. Every state Harris has won is solidly blue. Nothing on the presidential map has flipped. No swing states are close enough to call.

The story of the Texas Senate race: Ted Cruz won Latino voters by 6 points, per NBC News exit polls. In his last race in 2018, Cruz *lost* Latinos by 29 points. A 35-point swing.

It’s crazy how no one knows this, but the tax law currently in place is because of Trump and it completely fucked over the middle class. Doing any sliver of research would do this country wonders.

Reminder that Trump would just be an angry retiree shouting at the TV right now had Mitch McConnell decided to do the right thing after 1/6. Amazing.

Stock markets at record highs, low unemployment, wage growth exceeds inflation, the best handling of inflation of any G7 nation, energy independence, and I can go on and on and on...But no matter how this result lands, whether VP Harris ekes this out or not, it is amazing how
