3100 people voted at the Hamilton County Board of Elections in Cincinnati yesterday. The previous single day high for an election was 2600 on election day in 2016.

Every story like this is just terrible news for Republicans. People are voting in mass, and the more stories you hear about things like this in places that could possibly swing like Ohio make a blowout more and more likely. I don't think the media fully grasps how much people in this country hate Donald Trump.

I waited a long ass time for that sandwich two times. I remember a lot of racists complaining that people were waiting in line for a chicken sandwich though.

Even ignoring the racists, a lot of Woke Black Twitter™ was loud and wrong with "Oh, y'all will stand in line for a chicken sandwich, but you won't stand in line at the polls?!" takes.

In 2012 I had to stand in a long line, but that was only 45 minutes. I can't even imagine that shit. I live in a neighborhood where the demographics are basically equal all around, about the same amount of white/latino/Asian/black people, so my white ass never had to stand in a long line again. During the transition there should be legislation already written so enormous election reform can be passed nearly immediately.

I waited over an hour in 2016 but that is nothing compared to a lot of horror stores. Still enough to convince me to continue voting absentee or early like I did in ‘08 and ‘12.

At this point, I'm just waiting for Trump to hit the media rounds HARD the second he's voted out in an attempt to take as much shine off Biden's victory.

The good news is I think if the Trump campaign had any type of massive October surprise lined up for the Biden/Harris ticket that it would've been released by now. With so much early voting it wouldn't make much sense to hold it. That, along with a terrible debate performance were the only possible things I could've seen derailing Biden.

Yeah. Not the best tweet when he is draining the swamp his senior citizen support. Are we going to stop saying "OK, Boomer" if the 60+ year olds win the election for Biden?

On informal level, lot of Biden signs on my drive to RI this weekend. Granted, not exactly MAGA Country but I have noticed more Biden signs this election cycle than Hilary signs in 2016.

Although I also drove by a "New England For Trump" store in a dumpy strip mall on Rt 1 South in Peabody. I Googled this morning and there are 13 of them in NH, MA, RI, Connecticut, and even Mid-Hudson Valley area of NY State (NOT NEW ENGLAND, MAGA CHUDS). Please take a dump in front of one of them before you move, @Laz

No, we shouldn't stop holding the Baby Boomer generation accountable for destroying the economy for everyone (not born spoiled) under 40. But it'd be nice if they voted in their own best interests this year, when those interests just happen to be shared with the rest of the country.

NBC, again, is doing everything it can to keep Trump in the White House. They have chosen to schedule a Trump town hall at the same time/date as Biden's (which was only scheduled after the president quit the 2nd debate like a bitch).

Those events only serve to make Trump look much worse, so I'm not sure I'd say that they're helping him. Whenever he does one, the voters at them are destroying him. The last one where voters were telling him to stop talking and correcting him was pretty damaging, I thought.

Giving him all the attention he wants has helped him a great deal imo.
