I’m Canadian and cannot vote in the US election, even though it’ll affect us a lot (when a sleeping elephant rolls over…)
However, it drives me nuts looking at US polls. Harris is ahead by 2.4 points on average, which translates to something like 5-6 million in popular vote. But due to the electoral college system, it’s still a tossup! 538 is running monte carlo simulations based on state-specific polling and margins of error, and Harris is only winning ~54% of the time. https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2024-election-forecast/
So I say this kindly, as your northern neighbour, please please go vote :D
We will likely have our own election in 2025 complete with buffoonery.

Maybe one day we will get a platform from them so we know what he actually stands for other than “Trudeau bad”. Without a platform we can only rely on soundbites compiled over time. And I really don’t think investing in Bitcoin is sound federal fiscal policy…
Anyone upset that xkcd is supporting Harris is probably also mad that RATM got political
Any source for this? It wasn’t today’s comic.
The image is hosted on xkcd.com, but I expect there’s some article with it?
It’s the banner image.
