U.S. Election (Day?) 2024 Megathread

With apologies to our many friends and posters outside the United States... it's time for another one of these! Culture war thread rules apply, and you are permitted to openly advocate for or against an issue or candidate on the ballot (if you clearly identify which ballot, and can do so without knocking down any strawmen along the way). "Small-scale" questions and answers are also permitted if you refrain from shitposting or being otherwise insulting to others here. Please keep the spirit of the law--this is a discussion forum!--carefully in mind.

If you're a U.S. citizen with voting rights, your polling place can reportedly be located here.

If you're still researching issues, Ballotpedia is usually reasonably helpful.

Any other reasonably neutral election resources you'd like me to add to this notification, I'm happy to add.

On the other hand, suppose Harris pulls a come from behind victory in the wee hours of the night, should we adjust our priors on the rigability of the election?

At this point? Honestly yeah.

'injecting' ballots is only feasible depending on the current margin in the target states and the overall swing. if there is some kind of late night reversal caused by an injection it would look too suspicious this time. they would probably need to inject ballots across all the states in order to make the data look less suspicious but that would mean involving more people which is a very risk endeavour.

Why would they care? This is winner take all. I'm seeing scattered reports of trucks pull up with 100,000's of ballots in Philly and Detroit. There will always be a legion of empty suits claiming this is all totally normal and you are all the bad things if you ask questions.
