        It looks like they were wrong in exactly the same way and Trump outperformed. Assuming the few outstanding states go the way they are currently leaning, he’ll win something like 311 to 227. That is not a dead-heat, it’s a trouncing. But you’re right, human decency definitely lost.

          Harris currently has like 64M votes. This same time 4 years ago, Biden had +80M.Democrat voters didn’t fucking show up.

          Almost as if running a centrist platform to try to pick up republican votes was a bad idea, and only disheartened democrat voters. Only 4% of registered republicans voted for Harris, the same as Biden. Hopefully democrats learned something from this, but that’s doubtful.
