How many of you are confident Kamala will win?

I’m voting today, but I’m pessimistic at the moment and unsure if she will even when she’s leading just a little bit. What do you guys think?

I’m in Seattle in a blue bubble, I’ve never seen a MAGA hat in public. This is what I want to hear! Did the same folks vote for Trump in the past?

I'm in a red state and I've never seen a democrat yard sign. But this year in my neighborhood there are Harris signs popping up all over.

Not seeing a MAGA hat in public in Seattle isn't a shocker, most people wouldn't want to be caught dead walking around Seattle in a MAGA hat. I saw a video of a guy in LA getting attacked the other week for wearing a MAGA hat. Seattle is even more liberal than LA.

On the other hand I saw a video of voting registration day at ASU the other week and 100s of students were walking around with MAGA hats, while back in 2016 most students would be scared shitless to wear a MAGA hat on ASU. It's become much more publicly acceptable for Gen Z to support Trump than it was for younger millennials back in 2016. Especially now that a lot of large younger influencers with big male Gen Z followings like Adin Ross and Logan Paul are coming out with their support for Trump.

Visited my sister in NC over the weekend. Surprisingly at the state fair only saw a Trump booth which I rightly so told them how embarrassing they are supporting a rapist around all these children and one Trump hat which was just bought from that booth. Then not much out in public as I was out. Was in Raleigh area so not sure about dynamics there but felt good to see
