In the following 24 hours, nearly half a million people visited Vote.gov, the official government website where United States citizens can register to vote (learn more on how to register here). funny the source is consequence.net looks like just music new website but that name in relation to this is chef kiss ...

I didn't bother watching the debate live because I knew it wouldn't effect my vote (it would take Kamala saying something truly horrific, and I definitely would have heard about it before election day had anything of that nature been said), but I did come here right after it ended to see if there were any funny highlights of stupid crap Trump said. The first post debate thread I saw was one with Taylor endorsing Kamala. Part of me was sad that we live in a society where I was pretty sure that was going to have a bigger impact on the election than the debate, but at this point I don't care because the election is too important and her impact is in the right direction. ...

9000-10000 per hour is pretty ridiculous. Unsure how long that's lasted, but even if a few days, that's 500k or more people. And if 80% of them vote, and don't vote Republican, that's a huge swing towards Democrats. --- Who cares if Bosa is racist? ... Copied to Clipboard!

Nothing would please me more than seeing a Sweeping Landslide Victory for the Democrats this Election to make it so that even the Supreme Court can't wiggle the Republicans out of this one. I am still not getting my hopes up though, I did that once in 2020, and thankfully Biden still won, but it was so much closer than I would have expected. While I do think that Harris might do better than Biden did. It is because of past experience, I know better than to fill myself with hope. SaikyoStyle posted...

Seriously this. Like I get more voters is good. I know its a sort of however we can get people to vote should be celebrated but its seriously pathetic THIS is what it took. Like before people didnt think it was important enough until Taylor said it? I find that fucking pathetic and it just shows how easy it is to manipulate the average voter. So when CE complains in topics about how people can possibly vote Republican? shit like this is how. If someone can see all the shit going on and still not be able to make an informed decision but when a celebrity they like tells them to then they do? Even though in this case it works out for Democrats and thats a good thing its fucking scary this is how easy the average voter can be swayed. Which is why people believe talking points and all the lies politicians say. Its that easy to manipulate them which is why we will always be in this close battle of left vs right, blue vs red. --- PSN ID: sled_dogs76 60" Pioneer Kuro Elite PRO151FD, Yamaha RX-V3900 A/V Receiver, Oppo DV983-H player.
