Happylittlepunk Posted July 23 Posted July 23 (edited) Just pick the military guy if beshear isn't coming. Shapiro makes since for being in a battle key state but I feel like he wouldn't be a good choice for the youth and independents. He too pro-Israel and his history will be used against him eventually. Kamala needs someone who fill her weak points. That Kelly guy seems perfect to balance her out in rural towns and super white areas that he can use his military background to appeal to those nationalist and having a strong man persona to help Harris out or step if the country needs it.

Sannie Posted July 23 Posted July 23 (edited) 39 minutes ago, shelven said: The last 48 hours have been such an emotional and mental whiplash because tell me why every single tweet from that "Biden's Wins" account used to fill me with an instinctual rage but now that the exact same person is posting the exact same types of tweets under the name "Kamala's Wins", my gut reaction is "yes legend, tell them!!!" ย Because the entire issue was Biden himself. Now that he's gone, it's a breath of fresh air despite the air being partly the same. It's all optics; perception is reality. We now have the perception that everything has changed and is better so therefore it has and is.ย ย Leftists still trying the same "what I like most" bullshit instead of what's best for the country and can secure a win. Shocker.ย ย Beshear > Shapiro > Kelly ย Who will use Shapiro's past against him? Republicans can't because they have the same past. Leftists who still aren't happy weren't going to vote anyways. It's all about optics now. Shapiro will be less important in terms of those optics because he's second fiddle. The narrative is now that we have a new, younger candidate and that has people excited.ย Edited July 23 by Sannie 1 1

Me remembering now why I remember Shapiro's name despite paying zero attention to the PA Governor race... and it was because part of Fetterman's record highlight was that he called out Shapiro and others on PA's Board of Pardons for refusing to pardon people whose cases were handled by the Pennsylvania Innocence Project. Fetterman only getting Shapiro to stop blocking pardons because Fetterman threatened to run for governor in 2022 knowing that Shapiro wanted it.ย ย ย Edited July 23 by Communion 1

Blade Posted July 23 Posted July 23 The more I think about the EC bias Republican's have the more depressed I get. ย Smallest Amount of Votes needed for Clinton to beat Trump (2016): Michigan: 10,704 / 16 EV Wisconsin: 22,748 / 10 EV Pennsylvania: 44,292 / 20 EV ย <78k votes prevented Clinton from winning despite winning the popular vote by 2M. ย Smallest Amount of Votes needed for Trump to beat Biden (2020): Arizona: 10,457 / 11 EV Georgia: 11,779 / 16 EV WI: 20,702 / 10 EV 42,918 votes for it to have been a 269-269 tie which probably would have resulted in a Trump presidency since the House of Reps got to pick based on 1 vote per 1 state. ย A 270-268 Trump win would have added NE-02 with 22,091 / 1 EV.

VOSS Posted July 23 Posted July 23 Here is how Wikipedia summarizes this election (so far.) It's really one for the ages. Quote ย Incumbent presidentย Joe Biden, a member of theย Democratic Party, initiallyย ran for re-electionย and became the party's presumptive nominee on March 12.ย However, following what was widely viewed as a poor performance in theย June 2024 presidential debateย and increasing age and health concerns,ย he withdrew from the raceย on July 21 and endorsed Vice Presidentย Kamala Harris, who launchedย her presidential campaignย the same day.ย She secured enough delegate endorsements to become the new presumptive nominee a day later.ย Biden's withdrawal from the race makes him the first eligible president sinceย Lyndon B. Johnsonย inย 1968ย not to stand for re-election. ย Biden's predecessor,ย Donald Trump, a member of theย Republican Party, isย running for re-electionย for a second, non-consecutive term, after losing to Biden in theย 2020 presidential election.ย Trump would become the presumptive nominee on March 12.ย In the run-up to the election, on May 30, 2024, Trump wasย convicted of 34 feloniesย related toย falsifying business records, becoming the first president to be found guilty of a crime.ย On July 13, he wasย shot in an assassination attemptย at a campaign rally in Pennsylvania. ย ย
