Election Day Minus Two
Steyn Online ^ | 1 Nov 2020 | Mark Steyn

Posted on 11/01/2020 8:05:51 AM PST by Rummyfan

The polls open at midnight tomorrow - at least in the three first-in-the-nation mountain hamlets of my beloved New Hampshire, unless they've had two months of early voting like everywhere else and six of the total electorate of seven have already written in "Beto O'Rourke".

I'll be checking in with the ratings king of primetime TV on a special weekend edition of "Tucker Carlson Tonight" at 8pm Eastern/5pm Pacific. Hope you'll dial us up. It's great to have a Sunday Tucker show: they should make that a regular thing. On Monday morning, by the way, I'll be starting the day at "Fox & Friends".

They know a Trump victory is coming.

Even Vegas oddsmakers are saying so.

It's a similar story in the Latino precincts of the Lone Star State, where overall the early vote outnumbers the 2016 total. The Kamala-Biden campaign has canceled its Texas bus tour because the bus and its stops attract, like almost all Joe's events, more Trump supporters than Biden supporters. Even worse, many of these Trumpers arrive not in hybrids or second-hand Toyota Corollas but in some strange menacing form of transportation with the obviously intimidating #MeToo-type name of "pick-up truck".

America's three bestselling vehicles are pick-ups. But fortunately, after four years at journalism school, their owners are entirely eliminated from your social circle.

We’ve prepared ourselves for the worst but Wednesday we will know if this is all just a tempest in a teapot or if we really are looking at Major change like in the middle of the 20th century. We will go forward accordingly.

PREDICTION ! ! !

Today is the day that I make my November 3rd prediction....and it is....rat-a-tat, ta dum....PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP WILL WIN ON NOVEMBER 3 IN A MODEST LANDSLIDE !!!

I base this on my past experience as an elected official. I was a candidate in many primary and general election contests over a period of 20 years in a northern county of over a million people.

In my ongoing analysis over this time period, I found that in almost every case an extra-heavy turnout in an election signified a PROTEST VOTE. This axiom consistently holds true on all levels of government, from local to national.

This Trump-Biden contest already is seeing a heavier vote than anticipated......and it definitely signifies a protest vote.

In my experienced and focused opinion, the voters in this current election are NOT protesting President Trump, they are protesting three major issues, i.e., (1) a weak, senile, leftist Democrat candidate, (2) socialism/radicalism in its many forms, plus (3) the ongoing rioting, arson, looting, destruction and murder by anarchists run amok.

Therefore, the current unusually-heavy vote is definitely signifying a protest vote AGAINST the Democrat side of the ballot....and it's definitely signifying a substantial majority of votes moving steadily and positively FOR President Donald J. Trump and the GOP side.

Furthermore, I predict we will know President Trump is the winner somewhere in the middle of the night or early in the morning of November 4....or sooner! !

I will defer to your judgement for a modest landslide, based on your hands on political experience in Illinois.

I don’t care if Trump wins 270-268. I got a bottle of port from our local brewery in town of St Augustine chilled and ready LOL.

I just had surgery, so instead of your at-the-ready bottle of port, I'll have a glass of good ole Florida orange juice chilled and ready on election night.

Ein prosit !

Hi Leni!

I agree with every word "except" the last one.

My guess things will be like they were in 2000.

FRegards!

From your expertise to God’s ears...

I should chill the champagne.

And a few imported German beers...

I’ve taken a vacation day from work on November 4th. I will need it as I plan on taking copious shots of liberal tears as I watch our Great President Donald John Trump rout the RATS in the race for the White House, Senate, and House. I will conclude the evening savoring a 320 (EV floor) victory with lighting up the central/western NJ sky with a sulfuric show of shooting sky rockets.
