Title: Here's a cool site to monitor as election day rolls on.
Post by: RUSH1 on November 05, 2024, 10:46:02 AM
I realize Florida is not an up for grabs state, but the data collected on this site may give us clues as what to expect in other states.  The data updates every 5 minutes.  I believe there is also a website that updates Georgia's numbers every hour.

May want to give them a day or two to come up with the results ... they have to share the official abacus in most swing states it seems...

And always remember just because someone is destroying the other one that night as you go to bed, the results could be very different in the morning..I'd be surprised if we know by Friday

From this point on they can only blame themselves. Buckle up

What makes you think your vote will count again?

They have all power, anything that goes south is 100% on them. No more blaming anyone else.

Frustrated that Amendment 3 didn't pass, but I'll take the larger country results over that any day!  Been seething at the mouth waiting for the market to open

Markets have very little to do with the economy. Thinking it does is pure myth.

Enjoy the honeymoon.

Most common statement to me through life,..”you were right”.

They will be effected when taxes and regulations cuts save millions and allows them to hire more people which gives them jobs to spend money and expand the economy.

That has been proven to be false.
Instead of hiring they bought back stocks and cut hiring to give to shareholders.

Because of the tax scam I lost $7k per yr. And the 10k it cost me in commute and expenses to work last yr can not be deducted anymore. I have less to bank with high prices that started during pandemic.

I lost, doesn’t matter what the markets do, unless they crash, if that happens my annuity takes a big hit and retirement is going to suck, bigly.

Economy is 365 days 24/7. Markets are a snap shot of one day.
I say less than 50%. Markets don’t say how much money people have, its how much shareholders buy and sell.  Markets really only matter in long term extremes.

They have hit record highs constantly for 4 yrs, yet people complain about broke and high prices, after they bought new vehicles, guns and 3 vacations more than normal. Its all oxymoronic.

Someone explain how market high records helped them. Unemployment has been the lowest in 50yrs. Yet complaints roll. Any lower and inflation:recession. Supply and demand.

They did not cut hiring lol, he had the lowest unemployment rate in history. Your retirement would have crashed huge today if the opposite result happened. Instead I bet it's up nicely.

As far as taxes personally. I imagine things are going to vastly improve now that we have more power in the senate. Will have to see. Though I believe there will be huge tax changes coming.

BS
Whateva. Buden had lower unemployment, its in B&W. Orange never came close to “in history”

Not goin to read this nonsense.

My point stands on its own, from this point on blame moves in one direction.

And every bias media outlet trying to understand the obvious...

Interesting the loser hasn't said her goodbyes yet...

Though better than the alternative I have my doubts much will change besides a slightly tighter southern border..

Republicans have Elon and RFK Jr coming into the cabinet, plus a huge senate gain now.

Trust me when I tell you, changes are coming.

Of course it did because there is too much bureaucracy involved. But. Would have been a step in a better direction. I'm just hoping we can get it rescheduled afleast.

It still just pisses me off how alcohol is perfectly okay, but "muh weed". freaking Hypocrites.

Yeah, it was a monopolistic amendment written by the company who will be the sole supplier of the product that they're trying to legalize.  The fact that there were almost no restrictions as to where the product could be used also bothered me and most people I know.  I don't want to smell Denver or NYC every time I walk outside.

Meh, there are dozens of companies in FL currently, how can that be monopolistic? Also, cigarette smoke is a far worse smell, far worse smoke, sticks to everything, and is more used during drinking. So, I'm not sure why you wouldn't want to replace cigarette smoke with cannabis smoke any day, which also offsets alcohol when taken at the same time rather than enhance it.

I find that the smell also won't be bad as more switch to vapes and concentrate, which are way less smoke and don't have all the carcinogenic properties that regular plant smoke creates.

And well, you have the kids trying to sell it and going to jail for it. So I'd rather stop that as well. Other drugs are much more challenging to find and sell and also our cops should be using their resources for those harder drug gangs rather than arresting kids trying to make a quick buck on it because it's easily accessible.
