More than 1.4 million have already voted in the presidential election, as battleground state polls show no clear frontrunner
More than 1.4 million people have now voted in the presidential election, as Kamala Harris and Donald Trump continue to crisscross the country in the final stretch of a neck-and-neck campaign.
Their vice-presidential picks, JD Vance and Tim Walz, also faced off this week in the only vice-presidential debate of this cycle. But initial polls suggested voters saw the debate as a draw, without clear impact on the race.
Harris earned her highest national polling average since July, though the presidential race remains extremely close in battleground states, according to the Guardian’s poll tracker. Harris is leading in five of seven swing states, according to the Guardian’s average of high-quality state polls aggregated by the polling analysis platform 538 over the last 10 days. But overall, both candidates continue to have about even odds of winning.

Trump was memed into office by 4chan the first time. This is not a generational thing we can blame boomers on.
Deluding yourself into thinking that millennials and zoomers can’t also be just as fascist is 100% copium.
Oh I’m not suggesting that this election we are done with the fascists, the racists and the idiots. Unfortunately those are way to baked into human psychology… We will always have those members of our society.
What I’m hoping is that enough people will say at this point in time, our daughters have bodily autonomy. Kids don’t have to worry about food at school. We all have the freedom to choose to be who we want to be. That, January 6 was an isolated event spurred by the ramblings of a man who a large part of society is finally rejecting. And all of those J6ers, are traitors.
I’m suggesting that we want to elect officials that want to keep the department of education. Want to keep NOAA. We want to be members of the greater world.
We want to elect forward looking politicians.
Is that copium? Eh probably. Is that a naive way to look at modern politics? Probably.
But that doesn’t mean we have to lose hope.
