So, in 2020, Mecklenburg was 72%, compared to 75% statewide. I agree Kamala's chances would be improved if Mecklenburg gets closer to the state number, but she can still win, and potentially easily, even if Mecklenburg remains 2-4% behind. I think this election will be decided in the perimeter counties, the Triad, etc., and not in Mecklenburg or Wake themselves.

No doubt about that - getting good turnout in Wake and Mecklenburg especially is critical.

Trump really has pivoted to Kamala is going to kill you as his closing argument.
“Margin of fraud”
Kennedy pressed to beg people not to vote for him, even in states where he didn’t try to get off the ballot, but especially in swing states where he wasn’t allowed to withdraw late. To protect Elon Musk’s free speech and Kennedy’s opportunity to get into government power and stuff.

Think we need those rates to tighten just slightly.
2020 Overall NC turnout was 75.35% and Mecklenburg was 72%, so it still trailed by 3ish%. But to make up ground we do need some tightening, but probably not a whole lot.

I have to admit, when they scrolled past that banner, I could have sworn it said “Trump Will Fuck It.” And I was like, yeah, that’s true. Whatever “it” happens to be.

Yeah, it’s almost like they have people inside the campaign trying to destroy it. That or Trump and Musk and Vance and RFK jr surrounded themselves with exactly these kinds of people on purpose and failed (or quit trying) to keep them from using the platform of a presidential campaign to amplify who they are and what ball-tanning, conspiracy spinning toxic faux masculinity and incel hatred really took like.

The squirrel thing: some online-famous (male) OnlyFans model had an illegal pet squirrel; someone called the cops, and they apparently took it and euthanized it. Because this happened in NY, conservatives have rallied around it as the epitome of liberal governmental tyranny and Elon posted about it almost non-stop yesterday (including with AI-generated images of a squirrel with, like, a machine gun and tactical gear).
the Ann Selzer thing: I'm sure it has to do with the Iowa poll, but not sure how that became a hit with the gay community specifically
The "guy that killed Bin Laden" thing is the tweet that is being quoted at the bottom there. Some young guy posted a picture of himself and his friends with the caption "We’re Gen Z voters and we all PROUDLY voted for Kamala Harris! Real men support Harris" and the (Trump-supporting) Seal Team Six guy (Robert O'Neill) posted "You're not men. You're buys. If there was no social media you would be my concubines." Many people have pointed out that this is a deeply weird tweet that implies that this supposedly macho dude wants to use young men as sex slaves.

Erstwhile ZZLer randman was/is really upset about the squirrel thing. Been talking about it quite a bit on Facebook.
