Wednesday [8]

(0634) This is the US election continuation, a live blog for the foreseeable, other blogging will go on either side of it. Short snooze sometime soon. (0808)

 

0635 GMT

Toodles reports that “we” won Pennsylvania! Yay!

Also:


Time for some brekky.

…..

Well, this is going to be short and sweet, finishing up my election coverage … any updates in regular posts throughout the day, if and when. Film later.

In no particular order:





Wednesday [2 to 7]

(0553) Still dark outside, cunning plan is … a few post items now, inc DAD, Steve, IYE … a bit of brek … resume election updates around 0645 GMT. Just repeating … X is the only safe commentary … all major players on the good side are insta-posting … horse’s mouth so to speak. Harris refusing to address supporters, looks like Georgia is “lost”, gone to Trump. (0631)

 

7. Decision time, lads


6. IYE at 866

Weird timing to say the least:

“United States to test hypersonic nuclear missile tonight just hours after election polls close.”

5. TDS and ConWom



4. Farming and fishing


3. Stevedrop excerpts at 866

Evets 4: “The Turnout Is Off The Charts”: Sam Faddis Walks Through Early And Mail-In Votes

Evets 3: Reports of Huge Lines and Massive Turnout in Pennsylvania – RNC Chairman Deployed Attorneys to Allow Poll Watchers into Several Polling Stations

Evets 2: Military Situation On Ukrainian Frontlines On November 5, 2024 (Maps Update)

Evets 1: “Multilateralism” is globalese for One World Government and global totalitarianism

2. DAD drop today at 867

a) The killing in France continues……Shocking event on Tuesday, around 2:30 p.m., in Seloncourt (25). In the busy city center, rue du Général-Leclerc, gunshots ring out. The facts are chilling.

b) On Monday, November 4th, the trial began of eight people involved in the murder of history teacher Samuel Paty, who was beheaded just over four years ago. The tragedy moved the whole of France, both because of its symbolic significance and the savagery of the crime.

c) France can do it: so why cannot you, Sir Kneel? Purchase of boats in Turkey, storage of equipment in the Netherlands: 18 alleged members of a vast network of smugglers, suspected of having organized the passage of thousands of migrants to the United Kingdom, are on trial until October 11 in Lille….

d) Both Left and Right Indignant Over Macron’s Decision To Give Speech Inside Notre Dame Cathedral.

JH: And most importantly, from DAD:

e) Fog, again, this morning. The heavy fog on the roads of Deux-Sèvres in recent days reveals a lack of safety among some motorists. A quick reminder of the rules and good practices. USE YOUR HEADLIGHTS.

Wednesday [1]

(0338 GMT) Just woke up (literally), instant check, spray of screenshots below to give you the idea. Remember, this is a live blogging post, reading from here downwards … scroll down, good reader:

 





Anna Paulina and Kari took theirs.

Utah’s gone to Trump … so many more where the rep is Xing.

This is at 0345 GMT, take 5 hours for east coast, 8 hours for west coast … it’s still very much still live, not every polling station has closed, no other major announcements as of now.

Momentum seems as in 2020 before burst water mains and ballot dumps … that is right now, it’s that time of the night (0349 GMT).

Chairman Whately is significant … this is not MAGA, this is the RNC itself.

Summary and notice (at 0359 GMT)

This live blog will go on until DAD drop around 0530 GMT, then other matters. Due for a second sleep, we’ll see.

Overall, those expected to go red and blue are, massive cheating by demonrat party, still very much in play at that 2020 (year) moment but remember that the house is in play too. At NOWP and link below here, IYE and Steve with further explanations.

This will be the live blog for the US elections until it becomes unwieldy or outdated … which might be quite soon … keep it all in the one place for now … I’ll signpost below where it will continue.

0413 GMT:


0422 GMT:

0427 GMT

Ryan Fournier: “WE JUST WON MY HOME STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA FOR TRUMP!”

0441 GMT

Absolutely delighted for North Carolina … now they’ll get some decent treatment. My eyes are more on the House now … the Demonrats want the House badly.

0503 GMT

0520 GMT

Starting to get unwieldy, this post, starting to think a continuation post further up, after DAD drop.

Not yet out of the woods over there …


0529 GMT

This has become too long and unwieldy. DAD has dropped at NOWP. Short break, back with another election post a bit later.

This now continues, taverners all, at Wednesday 8.

Tuesday [15 till close of play]

(1717) Evening all.

 

25. This outright cheating, criminality

… is partly, imho, to force the GOP or MAGA to do something they can then cry one party state over, Gitler. SCOTUS needs to disband the DNC at the behest of the new GOP Prez but of course that means the enemy then has ammunition.

They’re trying to force MAGA to negate the election or at least call for it to be but as MAGA is on a roll, it does not wish to give the DNC time to make new mischief. Meanwhile, the demonrats are concentrating on stealing the House.

There’s much up at 866 right now, inc this from IYE:

There’s also Evets 1.

24. More shenanigans

Please also see IYE and Steve at 866.


23. Spain’s flooding game


22. Weather games


21. Manhattan censorship


20. Ponzi higher education


19. Know your cave-ology


18. Ireland news


17. Caught just a bit of the fireworks for Nov 5th!

Last year, I recall, I had glimpses but could not get shots as it was around the back of the house and around the hill a little. Still not very good, as shots go, but at least I got two with the pad:


16. The US election does dominate right now


15. Unusual situation

… in that I’ve been out of it this afternoon, even missed training and was not near the blog. Coming back into it just now, if I transfer drops from 866 over here at this time, I’m failing to view it all.

For example, I’m trying to watch Alex DeGrasse, Natalie and read Subsidiarity but can’t if I’m doing tech. I’d suggest you head over there and see it in situ … I still have half an hour of watching and reading to go so I can write something intelligent later.

Guy Fawkes night [9 to 13]

(0917)(0930)

 

13. Gunpowder Plot

Maybe time to rethink the villains and heroes?


12. Isilme and colours

Meanwhile, the flowers are still looking good. Some had died off and are now into their second blooming this year (unusual). They’re a cheerful sight on these grey November days. And to my astonishment, one of the garden trees has mostly yellow leaves – and one that is PINK! Red I expect, but never have I seen them pink before.


11. TCW


10. Maybe we can all be a bit too cynical?


9.  Russian govt reminder to us all

Key moments to look out for during this election:

* Election Day: November 5 – Americans vote in person or via the post for their preferred candidate.

* Electoral College Vote: December 17 – Candidates need at least 270 Electoral College votes to snag the presidency – on this day, electors meet to cast their official votes.

* Congress Counts Electoral Votes: January 6 – The House counts and confirms the electoral votes.

* Inauguration Day: January 21 – The new president is sworn into office.
