I expected their to be a much lower voter turnout this election and am pleasantly surprised I was wrong about thatI need to issue some apologies here.

I mentioned, multiple times, an extreme lack of Dem enthusiasm going into this election. I predicted a Trump victory based on the Biden nomination.
Biden has garnered the most votes of any presidential candidate in United States history. More than 2008 Obama. A few million left to be counted still.
So, I'm here to say I was wrong. Trump still has a chance to win the EC, but the sheer turnout for Biden is genuinely blowing my mind. I'm sorry I was condescending and pessimistic about Biden's chances as a candidate. Win or lose, he vastly outperformed my expectations.
You may all take turns shitting on me.

This turnout would have occurred for anybody not named Trump.I need to issue some apologies here.

Depends on the thread. The main PBP thread is harder to curate because of the number and speed of posters.
Generally though, empty posts are deleted and could eventually lead to infractions if they are persistent enough (I tend to notice image/meme spam the most personally).
Certainly that's what happens when they're reported.
Collins officially takes Maine Senate. By +10 points. Even though her polling averages were -4.
Two clear conclusions to draw:
(1) Senate polls are absolutely useless. They overestimated Democratic chances in every single race and, in some cases, were off by more than ten points.
Nearly 70M people also voted for Trump. Sleep on it.I'm also shocked that I might have to revise my opinion of Americans upwards.
I don't think I've ever had to do that.
Suck it, loser.I need to issue some apologies here.

Do you think anything with the horrendous polling will be fixed by 2024? Or are we gonna go in again assuming Rs win anything they’re within 5 points of and 5-10 point dem lead means toss up?
