The Doom Thread: Gloom, Despair, Agony

I'm at a 10. This will be close, not the ridiculous blowout everyone got their hopes up for following the Ann Selzer poll. So depressing that it is going to go down to the wire.

 

I am starting to feel better. Hope it lasts.

 

The Florida abortion amendment result is bumming me out.

 

I still see no reason to lower the gloom meter to single digits. None.

 

Scott wins Florida, Rafael Cruz is ahead in Texas, Alsobrooks projected to win Maryland.

And good news from PA:

MONTGOMERY COUNTY, PA -- FIRST DROP

KAMALA HARRIS: 71,072 votes (75.81%)
DONALD TRUMP: 21,931 votes (23.39%)

KAMALA HARRIS +49,141 votes

My doom meter is rising.

 

Fricking Loudoun county with the shout-out on PBS. Harris with the 16 point lead but trump with more votes than 2020.

 

Harris wins VA, Florida becomes south Alabama.

 

Red mirage is what they call the early yokel state calls

A wee bit of humor

This is absolutely hilarious

Wonder what @JohnKingCNN thinks about @TheOnion giving him a run for his money on the magic wall 🤷‍♂️🤣

I’m starting to feel extremely anxious to sleep. This is going to come down to the wire.

 

I am now at 12. I'm going to be sick.

 

I'm a 9/10. This isn't looking good I fear. The blue wall is creaking.

 

No, it won't.

America wants fascism.

 

Mine exploded.

I'll be quitting my job at the end of the term and moving to France on January 2nd.

 

I'm so, so sorry.

 

A gay atheist who teaches human evolution, race and the biology of sex, gender and sexual orientation has no future in America. Well, there is a future but it is not at all pleasant and would end in an unnatural way.

 

I'm there. I'll probably go to bed and wake up to a Trump presidency, sadly.
