That's what I'm talking about!
Thanks, you rock
Thanks! I just want to point out that some of the links may have changed, especially the YouTube links. So just as a reference, just go to the channel and search for the live feed of the election coverage.
I’m watching it all on AP and BBC.
I'm smoking weed, and drinking.. weed.
No weed injection ¿
Nah, that sounds scary.
I'll be watching V for Vendetta instead.
I think I'll hide in bed until it's over.
why would I watch
I'm actively trying to avoid it, but even in The Netherlands it's hard to avoid the talk of the town.
It's currently 11.30 in the morning here, so I'll be sleeping, or at least attempting to.
Swede here, if I want to know directly when I wake up tomorrow, I'll check our national broadcaster's website, if not I'll probably end up learning it here on lemmy, possibly through politicalmemes or something
I get my news from Youtube/Lemmy, other than that it will be on every tv station here in Germany.
Gonna do the same. Wake up, hit snooze, check SVT and Dagens Nyheter, and then onwards to /c/political memes. Possibly an excursion to BBC and CBC.
I'll be making sure my thermal scope has fresh batteries and my fastest car has gas to GTFO of my state if need be. Thankfully I live in a city that rednecks think is some kind of blue Baghdad so I'm likely fairly safe.
I have vague plans to goon for 16 hours
Real..
Same thing we do every night pinky.
Try to goonover the world
I lost my edge streak
NARF!
probably watch it on PBS Detroit and will be checking out the Daily Show live episode whenever it comes out on youtube.
There's a divey bar 10m away where people have been watching results the last few years. Might head down there. Pretty sure it'll be packed.
Alternative is to crawl into bed and wait till January.
Edit: we have a lot of local races (Mayor, City Council, propositions) on the line. Might hit the bar just to watch those and just ignore the national stuff.
Already watching... Dixville Notch voted an hour ago. 3-3 tie.
https://www.cnn.com/2024/11/05/politics/dixville-notch-new-hampshire-2024-results/index.html
I'll know the result once i wake up from sleep.
-lemming from the other side of the earth
Some states do not allow counting early votes early, some states allow a couple days for mail in votes as long as they were postmarked today, plus there will almost certainly be challenges and recounts
I'd be surprised if it was decided by then.
Yeah. I think if you're from Europe you probably see the final-ish result in two days or so. Tomorrow will be some counted with many still to go.
Sleep of another day then
The republicans we know said today to expect trouble and to gas up and get groceries and just hunker down for a while. Which is not at all ominous.
I won’t be watching. I’m going out to my shop at 8. No internet out there. And probably not emerging until dead of night or early morning. Then, like a lot of other women, I’ll check on my status as a person going forward.
My other half is taking Benadryl and forcing himself to go to bed. He’s given strict instructions not to wake him, even if it’s good news, with a clear Kamala win. (Yea, trouble later, but it’ll still tell us what We The People decided up front, and that means a lot.)
Here's hoping you're still a human being tomorrow night. Cheers.
