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.

I think the reality is that Kamala's signature legislation would have been farther left than she's comfortable campaigning on.

Trump couldn't get border wall funding from Congress with R control of the House and Senate. I don't think his campaign expects a new Congress to be very supportive, so why bother with some bold legislative promise.

Legislative promises during the Presidential campaign always seemed kind of weird custom to me. It's literally not part of the job.
