    No say is an exaggeration, but I was expecting this to come down to a small number of votes in a small number of states. While, practically speaking, the chance of that being within the range of Lemmy’s userbase, much less the Lemmy userbase in that state, is small, it is not impossible. But it wasn’t even close.

    I was prepared for the electoral college to disappoint me like this, but not the American electorate. Fuck’s sake.

      I honestly was thinking Harris won the popular vote, EC took a while to decide. Instead it was rapid evidence of “Holy fuck, I hate being right about bad things.”
