I don't think the fact that Republicans won in Wise County in 2014 deserved that large of a headline.
- It's election day, so it's time to for my award winning prediction. But first, a flashback to my past accomplishments. (Yes, this is real and in my office.)
- And so who do I follow-that up this time with my prediction to win the presidential election? With this: It will be Kamala Harris.
- Why?
- Lack of Motivation from Normal Republicans. For those which might have been inclined to vote for Trump four or eight years ago, they are now simply tired of him. He's the polar opposite of a shiny new object. And I think this will cause a lot of the normal Republicans to simply stay home.
- Motivation of the Haters: On the other end of the spectrum, if there were a vote for the most hated man in America, Trump would win. Those in that camp are motivated to crawl across broken glass to vote against him.
- January 6th, and his current support of the Insurrectionists and how he called it a "day of love."
- The overturning of Roe v. Wade. Don't underestimate the fury of women.
- He's never won the popular vote. And he's less popular now than then.
- I have faith in the American people to banish that man to history and put this Bizarro World to bed. And I think the Normal Republicans wouldn't mind that at all.
- On a different note, Ted Cruz beats Collin Allred, and I don't think it will be all that close.
- Side note: Don't be fooled by the early voting number tonight which will show Allred ahead. Those numbers will primarily be from the metropolitan areas. Once the all the rural votes trickle in over the next two hours, Cruz will take back the lead.
- And I find this incredibly interesting. Early voting in red state Texas is actually down compared to four years ago. Is that a sign of lack of motivation of a red state? Are the normal Republicans staying home?
- The day before the election, I never expected the Republicans to be focused on a squirrel.
- Marjorie sent a QAnon message this morning. "Storm" is pure QAnon, and she was one of "17" Republicans to vote to not condemn QAnon in 2020.
- Random news that I could find that wasn't election news: Two tourists crashed into each other on a jungle zipline in the U.S. Virgin islands. That's a pic from the company's website.
- Oh, and an Amazon truck almost fell off an overpass in Dallas last night.
- Sports quick hits:
- I'm not sure I even knew this was still going on. It sounds like it settled.
- Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy has a hot sports opinion about the fans who criticize him. Audio.
- Aggie carnage.
- I feel overly stressed on election day, and am thinking to much about Pennsylvania.
