ranked in order of vassalage
I really wonder how this compares to the voting patterns of actual voting-age US citizens permanently residing in these countries — obviously excluding the vast majority of US overseas citizens who don't vote. I absolutely think there would be clear differences in the ratios, but the extent of this difference is hard to say. US overseas citizens might be more likely to vote third-party than the general population just because fewer people in the general population would even be aware of the existence of third parties compared to overseas citizens; US overseas citizens might contradict the general population in terms of favoring Harris vs Trump, if more of them emigrated from red states compared to blue states or vice versa. For instance.
I'm mostly wondering about this because I want to know what percentage of people in this country who actually could and actually did vote actually spent the opportunity to show a fuuucking spiiine.
i would actually guess it'd be somewhat backwards? wouldn't a higher proportion of vote-eligible US-citizens in countries less friendly to the US be attached to the diplomatic corps, NGOs, etc. while in western europe there would be more non-state affiliated yankees? assuming of course that bureaucrats and their families prefer dem technocrats, i think they tend to but i haven't checked
e: this makes it sound like average americans prefer trump, which isn't actually true. more like kamala would have the highest support in state-department demographics and dominate the wider samples by a weaker margin.
Combination of
- Liberal Europeans that recognise who the best steward of empire is.
- Europeans having significantly more leftwing views than American liberals, and picking the furthest left option available in the poll.
- Europeans not understanding that the Democrats are further right than the right wing party of their country, and instead making the assumption they're close to the socdem or left-liberal party they have as an option.
Case Study: 19% of Norway voted either for Socialist Left or Red, demsoc parties. They ain't gonna be part of the 86% voting Kamala seen in this poll.
Leaving out "unsure" respondents is also just incredibly misleading. The UK left categorically wouldn't vote for Kamala, she'd be called further right than the tories and there'd be effigies strung up from bridges that liberal newspapers would leap to calling out as racism.
If she comes to the UK a million Palestine protesters will greet her. They will fly her via helicopter straight from the airport into Buckingham Palace because anything other than that would be suicidal.
did u kno?
ruzzia bad
im smart news pole people
europe yearns to transcend from being vassal states
Surely, it’s because they’re PSL voters!!! Based Switzerland!!
the swiss wrote in themselves, they thirst endlessly for world domination
this makes me want Trump to win
Now correlate this with dependence on NATO and that's interesting data
