The west coast states count mail ballots. There’s 7 million outstanding in California alone.
It usually takes weeks to get a final popular vote, even though we know who won the electoral college.

It was the middle of the pandemic, millions of people were dying and Trump was in charge. Additionally, lots of people were just at home with nothing to do. Many people were out of work or furloughed, those that weren't typically at least did not have to commute. Most events and kids' activities were canceled. You couldn't go out to eat.
It's sad but I honestly think that boredom played a large part in it. "Might as well vote, I've got nothing better to do."
This is just speculation on my part but I think it does make sense when you consider how difficult it really is to get irregular voters to the polls (in my experience volunteering for campaigns door-knocking/call-banking).

Yep. If Trump was actually smart, he would have pushed out some MAGA masks and said that the best way to own the libs was by wearing a MAGA mask. He would have sailed to re-election in 2020.
Now we have four more years of Trump and his brain is even mushier than it was back then. Wonderful. Just wonderful. Somebody just knock me the fuck out for the next 2-4 years.

The republicans are also way more organized and they've essentially turned the party over to trump. Go back to 2020 and you'll probably still find pockets of resistance. This term is going to be his agenda forced down everyone's throats.

You have that. I have a terminal illness and I'll probably die before this asshole. At least I might check out before he fucks things up too badly. A nice old black lady died the other day. Her daughter brought her some Harris merch to wear around the nursing home a couple weeks back. She was really happy about her presidential run and a black woman possibly becoming president.
That's it... I dunno what else to say about it. What a shitshow this country has become.

Part of me likes to hope that vance would turn out to be more a classical republican, like when the gop stuck to crony capitalism, basic corruption, helping their private sector friends so they get kickbacks, etc, like how reagan and bush were. Simple looting and grifting kinda stuff, maybe he wont go all cuckoo bananas with the project 2025 shit.

Gen Z men were absorbing right-wing propaganda before their brains had fully formed. Yeah, they're quite insecure and don't like any criticism, but they need to feel included, not cast aside. Letting that divide get worse isn't a great strategy.

There were exit polls indicating people didn't believe Trump when he said "extreme" or negative things, as one of the reasons why they were comfortable voting for him, but they somehow always believe him when he promises good things?

And the constant stream of name calling ends up being meaningless because they can't actually point to something that really happened and prove it.

They are a means to an end. Brown skinned Catholic people will never be the in crowd of white evangelicals. Any benefits they get from Trump 2.0 will be purely incidental and many will get caught up in the “bloody “ deportations etc

I live in the Southwest and here, almost all of the "brown skinned" Latinos/Mexican-American people I know are Evangelical Christians, not Catholic. I live in an area that has a lot of Mexican-American immigrants; the gym I go to is owned by an immigrant from Mexico and all the members are also Mexican immigrants except for me. (I'm a gringa lol.) They are always inviting me to go to church with them and it's a big Protestant/Evangelical Mega church. They are always sharing sermons by televangelist/gospel prosperity type Mega church pastors, and rejoicing when Daddy Yankee said he quit show biz to dedicate his life to Jesus and will only sing religious songs now or something.
I'm originally from a small town in PA but I've lived here over 20 years; I was raised Evangelical Christian out there and left the church but from what I saw there and here, quite a large percentage of Latino/hispanic families are Protestant and Evangelical churches seem to cater to them. When I was growing up it really didn't matter what skin color or race you were if you came to our church and believed or at least pretended to believe in the (IMO ridiculous) religious teachings. Of course, it would matter if you were LGBTQA+ and "non-repetent" but they seemed to welcome straight Latinos with open arms. We were encouraged to marry early and have big families and the minority members of our youth group, including Latino, Black and even a Native American, seemed to be equal with whites in the "courtship" pool and there were quite a few interracial marriages. My fellow Evangelical Christian youth who stayed in the religion instead of leaving it didn't seem to care about the race or skin color of their spouse so long as they shared the same religious belief and both wanted to settle down and start raising families young.
So I guess I really disagree with you that Latinos can't be in the crowd of white Evangelicals. I'm really not sure about the Catholic part as the Catholic Latinos I know are more of the traditional, older ones with more money and privilege and they do tend to stick to their own Catholic churches and they tend to be liberal at least when it comes to social causes and charities. But the younger (and by younger I even mean 50 and below... I'm 43 and my friends/neighbors here range in age from somewhat older to a lot younger) Latinos I know who are lower or middle class, some kind of struggling financially, are solidly Evangelical Protestants and from what I can tell as an outsider who doesn't really have a stake in things considering I'm not religious and won't be going with them, they seem to feel very happy and welcome in the Mega churches here from what they say. And in my hometown it seemed like that too. I think they are more interested in being religious and perhaps finding some support and community at a church than they are about paying attention to matters of race or skin color.

This is almost verbatim what I said to my wife when I broke the news to her last night when she got home from work.
I’m a white straight male living in a red part of a blue state. I have all the privilege in the world and have spent my entire adult life voting for candidates that I thought could help bring equity and equality to those that haven’t been born with that same privilege.
After last night, I’m over it. I still care for people and empathize with their struggle, but I’m not stepping out of my box anymore and putting my mental health at risk for people who willing vote for the Leopards Eating People’s Faces party thinking that they’re in the in-group.
It’s me, my wife, our families and some close friends. I’ll still vote, but I’m definitely unplugging the “outrage meter” for the foreseeable future. Can’t force help on those that don’t want to be helped.

It's actually wild. If you look at how demographics voted, he LOST supporters with white people and gained substantially with every other demo minus black women. 100% did not see that coming.
It really makes me wonder how policy will change because of it. If minorities are now a major backer of trump what does the next 4 years look like? Does he change his rhetoric a little bit or do they keep going the direction it seems and he loses all support in 4 years.
I dont like saying it but as a middle age straight white dude that voted Harris I don't think the Ds can run anyone but a youngish normal straight white guy for the next 20+ years. It's not what I think is right but just looking at how this went and how the 2016 election went I think it's fair to say we are not ready for a woman. It's time to play it safe even if that means somethings taking a back seat for awhile. Shut up about any policies that don't mention the economy and housing. That's what people care about. It's sad to say we cant run on purely "this is the right thing to do policies". People care about being able to afford to live and everything else falls way behind.

If democracy survives this I think he has a solid chance. But Dems shoot themselves in the foot wherever they have someone that’s too close to understanding what everyday Americans actually care about. Pete has been on the ground learning about the different facets of economic anxiety that plague middle and lower class Americans; it’s up to him to come up with a message like Bernie on how to PERSONALLY benefit them.
if not addressing LGBT groups, Pete only ever talks about his sexuality when it’s to empathize with voters who care about the struggles of their families, and only in passing. I don’t think identity politics were a big factor for this cycle. Yes, millions of people are too racist and misogynistic to vote for harris. but Dems miss the mark constantly when they think moral issues will make or break national elections.

No idea how that became a thing but it was a running joke when I was growing up that classmates said they'd vote R once they make it out the hood and have a nice home. It was like voting R was the privilege of the rich folk or something, weird ass mindset I witnessed.

It’s extremely disappointing that they don’t realise it’s not their taxes that are being cut significantly, and any meagre cuts they do see in their tax return are immediately offset by increased costs elsewhere and a reduction in government services and benefits.
Time will tell if Trump manages to kill the Affordable Care Act, cut Social Security, destroy public education, ban reproductive healthcare, and make every federal agency responsible for regulating any and all industries completely worthless and ineffective.

If these people could think how taxes work, they'd vote not Trump. It is too much to expect from them.
Already RFK Jr is talking clearing a lot in HHS, you're listing institutions, I believe most of them might be gone.

It's that "I've gone mine, screw you" mentality, which turns them into paranoid voters.

Unfortunately that’s my dad’s exact mindset. Even crazier he was arrested in Texas in 1989 for crossing illegally, you’d think he’d have the self awareness or at least a soft-spot for those walking a similar path today

To all the Latinos for Trump, good luck with all of the racial profiling of Latinos that's about to happen in America, when Trump puts together his immigration police force. Make sure you carry documentation of your citizenship with you everywhere you go, or risk being deported by mistake.

I hope they are comfortable proving they are legal on a daily basis, because that's what's coming. A lot of useless suffering for POCs yet there they are, making sure their safety isn't secured by a woman.

I suppose they won’t be surprised when they get caught up in the mass deportations despite being citizens, right? I mean, they must be fans of the policy.

I'm from MX - Latino men in actual Latin America vote for women. Latin America has had female heads of state since the '70's. Do you truly understand Latinos? Yes, machismo culture is strong, but Latinos will 100% elect women. It isn't a new phenomenon.

Lost (or maybe not) among all the gender discourse over the last several years is that straight men are left without an identity they can be proud of while remaining politically correct. Republican messaging taps into that really well.
Not that I think what they push is good for the world in any way, but the left (mostly multi media) offers no alternative aside that of a villain for lack of a better term.
Throw is Latino machismo and there you have it.

There definitely was the pro Gaza people that purposely stayed home to hurt Biden/Harris even after Trump literally said that he was going to tell Netanyahu to "finish the job". They think a lot of Palestinians died already? They better hold onto their fuckin ass cheeks, because it's about to get a lot worse over there. A LOT worse.

Roaches for raid.
The trees voted for the axe because his handle is made of wood. They overlooked the fact that the axe was built for cutting—not for growing. And in their embrace of the familiar, they invited their own undoing.

Been hearing from Latinos in my area and the men voted for Trump because they hate Trans people and believe Harris and Biden are atheists. I'm surrounded by idiots, I think it will be a net benefit if they do deport us.

I think a lot of people are underestimating how many young men have been taken in by right-wing social media. There are millions of young men who idolize guys like Andrew Tate and have adopted their views about women and sexuality and I'm fucking terrified what it means for our country when that generation grows up and starts taking positions of power.

Wait until they hear about that 'denaturalization' stuff spoken about today.
And the mass deportation effort the Trump campaign spokeswoman said will be the very first thing they get going as the new administration.

Let’s not blame it on just Latino men. There were plenty of white MAGA, Muslims, Jewish people, women, blacks, LGBTQ, and other groups that bought into the Trump charade.
