"The media have obsessed over Black people and Latinos turned off by Harris and various other #Demsindisarray narratives. The enthusiasm of women for Harris is a storyline that has been entirely unexplored."
~ Michael Tomasky
Hmm. Wonder why that would be? What is it about the media (and who owns and controls the media?) that would cause the media to ignore this? (/s)

"THE 'GENDER GAP' MATH IS UNDER-APPRECIATED in coverage of the race. More women will likely show up to vote than they did in 2020, and they will be supporting Harris more than they did Biden four years ago. Trump may be making gains with men. But he’s going to have to turn out a lot more of them if he wants to keep up."

@wdlindsy it resonates, all right. By making me want to see a US government run entirely by Black women for the next 8 years or so. But I'll settle for a Black woman as President, and a House and Senate actually controlled by Democrats and voting for Democratic priorities.

@wdlindsy Forgetting surveys...early voting is showing a gender gap of 10% in GA, NC, MI etc...GA early voting is over today. So unless Tuesday is overwhelmingly male voters the gap is going to be larger than in 2020 which was around 3.5%. Now i cannot imagine that the extra number of female voters are breaking evenly. If i am correct...both NC and GA will be called early in the night. I am willing to bet a beer or a chocolate on this logic.

@tizan Thank you for that report about the early-voting figures and what they may mean. I'm keeping my fingers crossed and trying to hold onto hope.

@oddhack I'm with you, 100%.

@Awoke Touché. Unless Trump means by protection placing "rebellious" women in front of firing squads!

@Rana You're absolutely right.

@lolonurse A good point. That hadn't occurred to me, but you're right.

@KatLS That tracks, for sure. Laws are for some people, not others, it seems.

@wdlindsy Great add, thought you where recommending Mastodonmigration at first. Find as of late Universodon spotty in service, but seems hard to move. Hell one can start over with a clean slate. Will miss my followers though.

@Piousunyn I do definitely recommend @mastodonmigration.

I wonder how many Stepford wives and zombies would have voted differently, had they heard his pronouncement first. But I'm still not letting go of my furtive optimism. -
William Lindsey :toad:replied to lolonurse last edited by
@lolonurse Furtive optimism is such a good phrase here. I am trying to hold on to that furtive thing myself.

@wdlindsy
And I'm clinging to the optimism part. If I read too much, or watch TV too much, I become terrified (or nauseous), so I'm trying to limit exposure. Hell, even Rachel looked haggard on Monday night.
