For Agitprop purposes, I’m asking comrades to help aggregate any and all effortpost responses, critiques, or general thoughts that you have seen or written pertaining to yesterday’s U.S. election that you think have standalone value for discussion either online or IRL.

I made a post for that purpose here, and ideally it can be used not only for general discussion, but as a reference for well thought out responses in discussions about the election to save all of us some brainpower.

No shitposts please, as we’d like to highlight some comrades’ actual effort in constructing responses or analysis, but humor is 100% welcome to help make your point!

turnout seems regular to me

2020 was an abberration

my crackpot theory is that people working from home could sneak out and go vote that year

And mail ballots broke this year?

this election already has more votes counted than 2016 (or 2012 (or 2008)) had

There are 15 million more americans (allegedly). Yeah, turn out is higher as well, cause now there are widespread mail ballots, probably.
