Not enough to move the needle because rural (and most suburban) Oklahomans are the dumbest American's to ever live, at least since we were leaching people to cure disease.

I know.

Most of the people I still talk to are in the sticks. But even they want to a have school 5 days a weeks (eg, Konowa) so they can work and not have to worry about day care.

And the leeching clinic in Holdenville is top notch.

One very vocal Trumpy crossfit woman I went to high school with posted this on FB:

"Read it again and again then go vote …"

I know I'm wishcasting but...

I don't know any typical Democrats are who are so turned off by Harris that they would consider voting for Trump, but I know several typical Republicans (myself included) who are repulsed by Trump to the point of either not voting, or even voting for Harris.  Multiply that by thousands and let's see how things turn out.

Just my personal anecdote from N. Dallas burbs.

Same, but E. Dallas burbs, holla!!

They blame the 8 democrats in the state legislature, or the federal government when a democrat is president. Stupid fucking morons.

Do we need 3 threads? I assume everything will be posted in here too

This thread is essentially the off-season thread where was 1 of them is the official called thread and the other is the gameday thread?

 

By this rational do we need gameday threads for games and season threads?

It definitely was.  Obama won the Driftless Area (and our neighboring WI and MN counties too) both times.

The farm crisis in the 80's made a lot of farmers hate Reagan and Republicans.  These were the guys my grandpa's age (my grandpa is a 90 year old Trump loathing yellow dog Democrat).  Their sons all did really well farming and became Republicans as a result (my old man being a rare exception).  Most of the old Carter Democrat farmers have died out, and I think that was a part of Trump's rise as Boomer and old Gen X rural guys became hardcore Trumpers.

I also think that low income/low education white people (IE white trash - I can say it because I live amongst them) didn't care about politics before Trump, and they turned out in a big way.  They're losing interest again as he's losing steam, and his win never really changed their lives.  Combine that with women overwhelmingly flipping to Harris and I can see how Iowa is making this political shift with different demographics than we saw in the past.

One side of my family was big Farmers Union/Co-op people so they have always been pretty blue. The slide to mega co-ops hurt a lot of engagement at the local level because those local board members would work their way up to other offices.

That's cool, but it's hard for me to rationalize the visual with the "We're not Going Back" slogan.

It also travels forward, to the future.

The women over 65 that got their rights in their lifetime aren’t going to let their daughters, granddaughters, and great granddaughters go back.

It's not just abortion.  Those women remember when they couldn't get a credit card because they were women.

I will stop wishing death upon the ex who lives in Las Vegas if Nevada comes through for Harris.

No you won’t. And that’s okay 

Yeah, as long as Harris wins North Carolina by at least two votes, I’’ll still wish my ex was a flood statistic.

Final Sabato Crystal Ball - 

276 Harris (MI, PA, WI, NV)
262 Trump (GA, NC, AZ)

276-262 was what the models were coalescing towards about 2 weeks ago.

"Tomorrow, Marty, we're sending you back to the future!"  That movie kicks so much ass.  A classic.

This is heavy.
