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.

RDS (clearly the party will be JD’s after this term though I could obviously see RDS as a running mate)

how so? DeSantis has thoroughly flipped the ur-swing state crimson, and has no rivals as the most efficient and effective governor in the country both on ordinary, non-partisan QoL issues (disaster response, infrastructure condition, etc.) and highly-partisan culture war issues (fighting higher education, voting reform, etc.) JD Vance is no-doubt a major winner here; he's done a fantastic job on campaign. But I would be shocked and saddened if DeSantis was marginalized in the GOP moving forward. Competence like he's displayed has got to have a seat at the table because it's not enough to have good optics; you have to deliver.
