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 there’s some truth to it. Trying to outflank Republicans to the right on Israel seems like a puzzling strategy and it absolutely tanked Harris in Michigan. In Dearborn she came in third place behind Trump and Jill Stein. I think that also depressed turnout by liberal college students in a number of places. And most people who were seriously pro-Israel voted for Trump and Republicans anyway, because Republicans have a better established track record on supporting Israel.

This isn't accurate, she lost a significant portion of her expected vote to Jill Stein, but she didn't finish third.

Trump won with 42.48% of the vote over Vice President Kamala Harris, who received 36.26%, according to results, with 100% of precincts counted, provided to the Free Press from City Clerk George Darany. Jill Stein received 18.37% of the vote.
