ckf Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 There are more Trump signs than Biden signs in my neighborhood. There's even a few leftover 'Hillary for Prison' signs from 4years ago, lol. Trump won't win the state though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doing so screams I’m uninformed and live in a fuckin cave. Right, smart people vote for who they're told too by the DNC/RNC.

Which is kind of funny since those areas are supported by all the state funding produced in the southern third that will vote Biden. I do actually agree with the way Maine distributes their EC vote. All states should do that over winner take all if we are not going to count every vote in this country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d bet my left nut on those three. Edited August 4, 2020 by Edmo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FL and the upper midwest will decide this election just like they did in 12 and 16 as he's not picking up any state that went Blue in 16.

Areas whose industries have passed them by tend to be as people hang on there even though the economy is never coming back like it was Skowhegan is a typical new england mill town, down to 8-9k people now and the older population skews the numbers. Heard the other day maine has the second oldest population in the country and lots of them are in these old towns where housing is cheap and income low. Maine loses lots of their young to southern NE when they go to college and don't come back. The pubs have tried to make it a better business climate to reduce that but the dems are intent on fucking the state up. FTR big difference between yankee pubs and those whacked out religious fucks that seem to be prevalent in the rest of the country Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
