Harris and Trump tie in Dixville Notch midnight vote to kick off Election Day

https://www.cnn.com/2024/11/05/politics/dixville-notch-new-hampshire-2024-results/index.html

Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump have tied with three votes each in the tiny New Hampshire township of Dixville Notch, kicking off Election Day in one of the first places in the country to report its presidential preference.

The unincorporated township, located along the US-Canada border in New Hampshire’s northern tip, opened and closed its poll just after midnight ET in a tradition that dates back to 1960. Four Republicans and two undeclared voters participated.

While Dixville Notch isn’t always predictive of the eventual winner – or even the state’s pick – its annual production, despite a dwindling population, is a success story for local leaders and a reason to smile for political junkies eager for an early taste of the day’s events.

Smart Money -- 87% Chance of a Kamala Win??? Here's How to Prepare... (investorplace.com)

Was wondering what I should do about my 401K/TSP accounts. Found this article very interesting…

This from Kiplinger…

In the 23 presidential elections since 1928, 14 were preceded by [stock market] gains in the three months prior. In 12 of those 14 instances, the incumbent (or the incumbent party) won the White House. In eight of nine elections preceded by three months of stock market losses, incumbents were sent packing.

That’s an 87% accuracy rate.


**snip**

The benchmark U.S. stock market index, the S&P 500, is up about 7% since the start of July. The Dow Jones Industrial Average and the Nasdaq Composite are also showing gains over that time.

If history is any guide, Harris, not Trump, is likely to be the next president of the United States.

And that’s not the only indicator pointing to a Harris win.

Since 1932, the incumbent party has always won reelection unless a recession occurred during the current term (in this case, President Joe Biden’s term).

And right now, no matter how folks may be feeling about the U.S. economy, it’s not in recession.

Data released yesterday shows the economy grew at an annualized rate of 2.8% in the recent quarter. That’s less than forecast… but it’s nowhere near recession levels.

US judge returns lawsuit against Elon Musk's $1m voter scheme to state court

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/nov/01/elon-musk-giveaway-lawsuit-state-court
Civil suit claims that tech billionaire and his Trump-supporting America Pac giveaway is illegal lottery

A federal judge on Friday denied an attempt by America Pac – the political action committee founded by Elon Musk to support Donald Trump’s campaign for a second presidency – to move to federal court a civil suit brought by the Philadelphia district attorney over a daily $1m prize draw for registered voters.

The lawyers for Musk and his America Pac had argued that the lawsuit, which is seeking to halt the sweepstakes in the battleground state of Pennsylvania, needed to be resolved in federal court as it referenced the 5 November presidential election.

But the presiding US district judge Gerald Pappert disagreed with that contention in a five-page opinion, writing that the motivations of the Philadelphia district attorney, Larry Krasner, were irrelevant – and that his office had the power to bring the case in state court. “Having now considered the parties’ submissions, the court grants the motion and remands the case back to the court of common Pleas,” it said.

The case was set for a hearing in Pennsylvania state court on Monday, the day before the election.

The civil suit that names both Musk and America Pac alleges that a petition asking registered voters in battleground states to submit their address, phone number and emails in exchange for $47, as well as to enter a daily $1m prize draw, was a lottery scheme that was illegal under state law.

Does anyone else think TFG is trying to lose on purpose? His actions just make no f***ing sense.

In the last couple of days… 1) he’s told women he’ll protect them whether they like it or not; 2) tried to climb into a garbage truck and almost ended up on his ass; 2) climbed into a garbage truck and then held a press conference from the passenger side seat through the window; 3) offended Puerto Ricans during his MSG closing argument; 4) modeled his closing argument after the 1939 Nazi conference at MSG; 5) threatened Liz Cheney with an execution with 9 guns pointed at her face; 6) becoming more and more unstable and unhinged; 6) he’s just plain old weird and getting weirder every day. I am so ready to turn the page on his rhetoric and chaos. For some reason, my return key is not working in DU. However, outside of DU it works fine 😂
