NEW EXIT POLL THREAD:

 
Oh I don't want it
South is Carrboro , North is Cedar Grove is why I asked Night and Day
Damn see I thought we were going to be friends. South of Hillsborough, but not C/CH.

Though around Cedar Grove it is massively less Trumpy than it was in 2020.
 
I was talking to a guy I go to church with and he’s a liberal (not as progressive as me) but he believes Trump will win. We both are financially pretty well off and he said that’s disconnected us from the normal persons struggles on inflation. He’s convinced folks are not that complex. Prices are higher now and despite the fact that Trump caused a lot of that, we were coming off a pandemic and we managed the nearly impossible (soft landing), people won’t get it. They see prices are higher and our income has shielded us from that. He works as a supervisor at a manufacturing plant in Apex and is closer to those impacted from inflation.

Who knows and I guess we will see today.

Yeah I have heard some of this sentiment but the bottom line is voters this low on information and in a demographic sweating grocery prices are usually already Trump voters. The question is whether their misinterpretation of the cause of grocery prices/inflation is going to spur apathetic voters to go vote Trump, or turn a vote from Harris to Trump. I could be wrong but I just don't see this being anything like Dobbs or January 6 which are really, really motivating people.

I would agree on Dobbs. I think 1/6 is a nothing burger and won’t impact the election today at all. It should be Americans have crazily grown numb to it all.
 

If Trump were running against Biden right now, he’d be up 7 points​

New YouGov polling offered Americans an alternative history: What if President Joe Biden hadn’t dropped out?

"... Before we dig into the data any further, we will acknowledge that, as with all of these sorts of questions, the results are necessarily tainted by reality. Biden isn’t the candidate and hasn’t been the beneficiary of months of ads promoting his candidacy. His party isn’t forced to vote for him to prevent Trump from returning to the White House, giving Democrats space for apathy that might not have otherwise existed.

... The YouGov survey consisted of two questions, one evaluating support in a Trump-Harris contest and the second in a Trump-Biden matchup. Overall, Harris did eight points better than Biden, and Trump did two points worse against the vice president than the president. The margin goes from a seven-point lead for Trump against Biden to a three-point deficit. ..."

Nate Silver: “At exactly midnight on Tuesday, we ran our simulation model for the final time in this election cycle. Out of 80,000 simulations, Kamala Harris won in 40,012 (50.015%) cases. She did not win in 39,988 simulations (49.985%).”

FiveThirtyEight gives Harris a 50% chance to win.

The model is just seeing national polls at 50-50. It doesn’t say anything.
