Iowa and Nevada flipping would be hilarious

[–] dingdongmetacarples@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Nevada voted for Biden, Clinton, and Obama twice. A flip for Nevada would be to vote for Trump.

In the "polls" it's set for Trump, no?

50/50 in the polls, but a "flip" implies voting for a different party from last election.

Absolutely no way Iowa goes for Harris.

I mean most things are possible. But I think it's very unlikely.

I don't know this guy. Is there any reason to value his opinion on this or is he just mouthing off like most pundits?

[–] Protoknuckles@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Apparently just mouthing off. Fuck.

I won't have hope until victory is officially determined.

Pessimists only get happy surprises.

What does the Clark firewall refer to?

[–] Jordan117@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Ralston's term for Democrats banking early vote in Clark County (Las Vegas). It gives them a buffer to withstand more heavily-Republican turnout on Election Day. It flipped this year, though, with Republicans building their own firewall via high early vote in the rural counties.

So it's basically the difference between D and R early votes in Clark County?
