Why does this seem like a copy of what Trump supporters were saying about Cumala?
I remember last week people posting that her own managers can't stand the bitch. Is that really the play now huh? Just copy what the other side says with the name scratched out and replaced with Trump. Fucking loonys.

Ok, I lied. I have to post one more time. Trump just released this very epic ad. I feel like an idiot because it got me. It perfectly encapsulates his whole campaign this year.

While it sounds outlandish since Minnesota hasn't gone red since 1972, Trump did come within 1.5 in 2016. A recent poll also showed it within the MoE at 2. With depressed minority and urban turnout, reduced early voting numbers, and strong rural support, all things that have been a recurring theme thus far nationwide, it's not entirely out of the question that it might go red.
Having said that, I think it's mostly for the meme factor. It's Tim Walz's home state and would be the ultimate instance of Trump running up the score. The voter demographics have also shifted a bit in the last decade. Ask Norm Coleman circa 2008 how close elections go for Republican candidates in Minnesota.
You'd probably see a red New Hampshire, New Mexico, or Virginia before you'd see a red Minnesota this time around.

What you are describing is called an Affinity Group. It's a Marxist Domestic Terrorism tactic.
It was first codified in the 1969 rag, "Listen, Marxist" as a tactic used by Marxist Domestic Terrorists in Spain, IIRC. https://www.ghostarchive.org/archive/psCI5 Since it's not a commonly known term by the right (unlike say, Cultural Marxism) Wikipedia isn't running defense on it yet: https://www.ghostarchive.org/archive/OZiA7
It's not unlike identity politics. You identify the groups you're a part of. Maybe I'm in a discord, go to a FLGS, go to a school, hang out on a forum, and go to work. Each are "Affinity Groups." So if I was doing activism, I might grab the people from work and work with them to make protests signs and ork engineered riot shields for people from my discord affinity group to use. What's that? Protest? No man we aren't going to the protest, we're just making these signs, then some other person I don't know but my friend from discord had someone come pick them up. Who? I dunno man, sorry, it was some guy he knows from his softball team. This way if one group gets raided -- my work team, my discord team, my discord friend's softball team -- the others are protected.
Modern Marxists and Marxist descendants use Signal to organize all this stuff, as well as secret signifiers. For example, green hat at a protest -- NLG legal observer, they're a paralegal or lawyer there to try and make the police flinch long enough that you can escape into the Black Bloc and become unarrestable. Pink or red cross armband? Affinity group leader -- in case of confusion or emergency, get that person's attention. They often claim to be medics. Plainclothes holding a camera in front of their face? Antifa Media Stooge, trained in the Beautiful Trouble method. No one attacks the rando in plainclothes, he's not wearing the Antifa uniform, see? But he's absolutely in their signal chat, and giving the best footage to their friends at CNN to smear you with. And if Antifa fucks up and starts getting beat down, they can leap forward to protect them and then it's "evil alt right nazifascistjews attacking a poor innocent old man."
It's a tactic explicitly designed to make it hard for crackdowns to tear this shit out at the roots. Because the people leading this shit, your BAMNs and the like, let the Antifa or Just Stop Oil idiots take the brunt of the attacks. Remember that guy who thought he was throwing firecrackers at the courthouse during the summer of love, only whoops, it was a small pipebomb? They nailed his ass, but he didn't know shit, because he was handed that bomb by some cunt he didn't know in another affinity group, who vanished into the ether forever.
Rigging is absolutely, 100%, using this model. The people ballot printing do not directly work at the polling systems. But they know someone who goes to the same bookstore as them, and talk on Signal, and know to bring a box of ballots to this one dude's house on the weekend of the 3rd, just in case, where a bunch of people he doesn't know will fill them out and prep them if they need to be dropped off, which will be another dude none of them know, who again isn't a poll worker but probably goes to the same coffee shop as one...

Some cities and states are preparing for potential election-related violence, though so far, tens of millions of ballots have been cast without serious incident.
Washington Gov. Jay Inslee on Friday announced the activation of some members of the state's National Guard to be on standby status in case they are asked to help local law enforcement. The governor said Guard members could be called on to protect "vital infrastructure" for elections and to "respond to any unrest" related to the election.
Guard members will be on standby status until the end of Thursday, according to the governor's order. The state's top military official is determining the number of members needed.
"This is a purely precautionary measure taken in response to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s nationwide warnings regarding threats to election infrastructure and other recent activities that have occurred in southwestern Washington," Inslee's office said in a statement.
Across the river in Portland, Ore., police said they were "increasing staffing on Election Day and the days following as a precaution." Still, they said they were not aware of any threats related to the election.
The announcements come after ballot drop boxes in Portland and nearby Vancouver, Wash., were set on fire last week. A few ballots were damaged in the Portland drop box, while the fire damaged hundreds of ballots in the Vancouver box. Authorities are still searching for the perpetrator.
In Nevada, Gov. Joe Lombardo's office said 60 National Guard members would be activated "on standby status" and stationed in Las Vegas and Carson City. He said the activation is similar to that of previous elections. Guard members could be used to help local law enforcement with traffic enforcement and building security, the governor's office said in a statement.
Lombardo echoed other officials in saying that the activation was only as a precaution.
In Washington, D.C., Metropolitan Police Chief Pamela Smith said the police will "stand up a full activation," meaning all police would be working 12-hour shifts "and depending on what happens, maybe a little longer, to ensure that we have enough officers on the street and every corner of our city." She said the city could call in law enforcement from other jurisdictions for assistance if needed.

Other security measures have been taken throughout the city. Fencing around the White House and the Naval Observatory (which contains the vice president's residence) was increased. Some businesses near the White House boarded up windows as a precaution, local media reported.
D.C. police announced road closures around Howard University for Vice President Harris' election night watch party. Extra physical security measures are also being added to the Palm Beach County Convention Center where former President Donald Trump's campaign will hold its party, the Secret Service said.
"These enhancements are not in response to any specific issue but are part of wide-ranging public safety preparations for Tuesday's election," the agency told NPR.
Three organizations representing sheriffs across the country said in a joint statement last week that they had been preparing for the election for a year and a half. The Major County Sheriffs of America, National Sheriffs’ Association and the Major Cities Chiefs Association said they "stand ready and united to ensure that Election Day 2024 is secure, safe, and fair."
Despite the lack of widespread violence so far, many people across the country are concerned about the potential. In an NPR/PBS News/Marist poll released on Monday, 72% of likely voters said they were concerned about violence as a result of the election.

WASHINGTON (AP) — More than two dozen states have indicated they would be willing to send National Guard troops to Washington if requested in the weeks following the presidential election and in the runup to the inauguration, Guard officials said Monday.
The District of Columbia has not yet made any formal requests for Guard troops, but officials across the government have been preparing for the possibility that the U.S. Capitol could once again be rocked by violence around the certification of the election by Congress on Jan. 6 and the inauguration two weeks later.
About 25,000 Guard troops from around the country flooded into Washington in the days after the deadly Jan. 6, 2021, riot, when thousands of supporters of then-President Donald Trump stormed the Capitol in an effort to prevent Congress from certifying Joe Biden’s win.
The troops, along with local and federal law enforcement, locked down the city for the inauguration, securing the Capitol, monuments, Metro entrances and the perimeter of the central part of the city.
Speaking to reporters Monday, Col. Jean Paul Laurenceau, chief of future operations for the National Guard Bureau, said it is not yet clear how many Guard troops will be needed or requested this year. He said it will depend on what the District of Columbia wants, but he noted that the National Guard Bureau and the states are leaning forward in anticipation of a request for assistance.
“We’re here to support D.C. with sustainment, lodging, transportation — anything they need to prepare for this mission,” he said.
Other officials have said it also will depend on intelligence reports assessing the potential threats to the city and the transition of power.
Fueling concerns about possible violence are Trump’s claims — without proof — that cheating is already underway in the election. At rally after rally, he has told supporters that the only way he can lose is if Democrats cheat, and he has repeatedly refused to say whether he will accept the results regardless of the outcome.
Guard members have historically provided support for presidential inaugurations, going back to the one for President George Washington.
But the 2021 event involved an enormous response due to the riot on Jan. 6, which forced lawmakers to flee the Capitol, delaying the certification of the presidential vote for hours. In the days afterward, Guard forces poured into the city by the busload.
In 2021, a few states declined to send troops, also worried about violence within their own borders and capitals.
Defense officials said Monday that 10 states have activated state Guard members to assist for the election — primarily doing cybersecurity missions. The total number of troops is about 125.
In addition, nine states and the District of Columbia have put a total of about 120 Guard troops on standby, ready to deploy if needed on Tuesday or in the following days — also mostly for cyber missions and some security.
Those states are Colorado, Florida, Hawaii, Nevada, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas and West Virginia. Officials said those numbers could change on Election Day as states reassess their needs.

A Georgia poll worker was arrested today for mailing a letter to the Jones County Elections Superintendent threatening poll workers.
According to the criminal complaint, Nicholas Wimbish, 25, of Milledgeville, Georgia, was serving as a poll worker at the Jones County Elections Office on Oct. 16 when he allegedly had a verbal altercation with a voter. Later that evening, Wimbish conducted online research to determine what information about himself would be publicly available. The following day, Wimbish mailed a letter addressed to the Jones County Elections Superintendent, purportedly from a “Jones County Voter.”
The letter was allegedly drafted to make it appear as if it came from the voter, such as by stating that Wimbish had “give[n] me hell” and that Wimbish was “conspiring votes” and “distracting voters from concentrating.” The letter threatened that Wimbish and others “should look over their shoulder,” that “I know where they go,” that “I know where they all live because I found home voting addresses for all them,” and that the “young men will get beatdown if they fight me” and “will get the treason punishment by firing squad if they fight back.” Further, the letter threatened to “rage rape” the “ladies” and warned them to “watch every move they make and look over their shoulder.” The letter concluded with a handwritten note, “PS boom toy in early vote place, cigar burning, be safe.”
Wimbish is charged with mailing a bomb threat, conveying false information about a bomb threat, mailing a threatening letter, and making false statements to the FBI. If convicted, he faces a maximum penalty of 25 years in prison.
Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General Nicole M. Argentieri, head of the Justice Department’s Criminal Division, and U.S. Attorney Peter D. Leary for the Middle District of Georgia made the announcement.
The FBI Atlanta Field Office is investigating the case.
Trial Attorney Jacob R. Steiner of the Criminal Division’s Public Integrity Section and Assistant U.S. Attorney Will R. Keyes for the Middle District of Georgia are prosecuting the case.
This case is part of the Justice Department’s Election Threats Task Force. Announced by Attorney General Merrick B. Garland and launched by Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco in June 2021, the task force has led the department’s efforts to address threats of violence against election workers, and to ensure that all election workers — whether elected, appointed, or volunteer — are able to do their jobs free from threats and intimidation. The task force engages with the election community and state and local law enforcement to assess allegations and reports of threats against election workers, and has investigated and prosecuted these matters where appropriate, in partnership with FBI Field Offices and U.S. Attorneys’ Offices throughout the country. Three years after its formation, the task force is continuing this work and supporting the U.S. Attorneys’ Offices and FBI Field Offices nationwide as they carry on the critical work that the task force has begun.
Under the leadership of Deputy Attorney General Monaco, the task force is led by PIN and includes several other entities within the Justice Department, including the Criminal Division’s Computer Crime and Intellectual Property Section, Civil Rights Division, National Security Division, and FBI, as well as key interagency partners, such as the Department of Homeland Security and U.S. Postal Inspection Service. For more information regarding the Justice Department’s efforts to combat threats against election workers, read the Deputy Attorney General’s memo.
To report suspected threats or violent acts, contact your local FBI office and request to speak with the Election Crimes Coordinator. Contact information for every FBI field office may be found at www.fbi.gov/contact-us/field-offices/. You may also contact the FBI at 1-800-CALL-FBI (225-5324) or file an online complaint at www.tips.fbi.gov. Complaints submitted will be reviewed by the task force and referred for investigation or response accordingly. If someone is in imminent danger or risk of harm, contact 911 or your local police immediately.

Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold revealed voting equipment passwords were posted online for four months before being noticed and taken down in a concerning security breach ahead of the election.
Griswold, a Democrat, said the passwords were posted on June 21 and were taken down on Oct. 24.
A former staff member created a spreadsheet that contained the passwords in a hidden tab. The spreadsheet was then posted on the Colorado Department of State's subpage for voting system equipment, Griswold's office said.
Griswold's office said the employee left "amicably" before the breach was made public. However, Griswold refused to share specific details about the employee's departure.
Griswold's office determined that 34 of Colorado’s 64 counties were affected by the password breach.
While the breach was discovered on Oct. 24, it wasn't made public until the Colorado Republican Party revealed it in an email five days later.
Griswold defended her office's decision not to detail the breach to the public right away, claiming she didn't know if the passwords were active. She said she wanted to understand the "size and scope of the disclosure" first.
The Colorado Libertarian Party is suing the state over the breach.
Griswold's office said all affected active equipment had undergone password updates with support from the Governor’s Office of Information Technology, Colorado Bureau of Investigation and Colorado’s dedicated County Clerks.
Griswold insisted Colorado's elections are safe.
The secretary's office said it is working with a law firm on an outside investigation to determine how the breach happened, how it could be prevented and any recommendations for improvement.
It added it will also require additional cybersecurity training with all staff, including password management and security procedures.

I was gonna make steak, but I got a last-minute request for Sloppy Joes on Election Night, so I made the steak tonight.
Probably too late and gay, but: My dad had a long-standing election-party-for-one formula that was so successful, I've kept it up long after his death.
1. EARLY DINNER. Try to get it all done, from the first bite to the last dried dish put away by 7 pm. Do all your nighttime chores too, shower, take out the trash, whatever, just done by 7 pm.
2. SACRIFICE THE BIG TV. Let the kids and other uninterested parties use the big TV in the living room, you take the smaller one in the den or guest bedroom. Cleverly suggest movies/TV shows for the kids and uninterested adults to watch (my dad used to pick up a bunch of movies from redbox).
3. GET A FUCKLOAD OF SNACKS, SHARE IN ADVANCE. Make yourself a big tray of snacks and leave the rest out in the kitchen so they don't come in and disturb you looking for the Doritos.
4. ICE CHEST FULL OF DRINKS + FULL THERMOS OF COFFEE. Doesn't matter what drinks they are, just make sure to put in a few waters so you don't get dehydrated, especially if you're having alcohol. No more coffee after midnight, either.
5. DON'T LET UNINTERESTED PARTIES/PETS/KIDS IN THE ROOM. They'll get bored and start chattering or otherwise acting up. It's OK if they pop their head in for a status report, but DO NOT let them settle in.
My dad also use to advise going to bed no more than a half hour after the election was called, since the concession speech and pundits bloviating would all be there tomorrow, but I say ymmv. On the one hand, he's right, it will all be there tomorrow, but on the other hand, if you're super excited because your guy won, or super-sad because she didn't, take as much time as you want to process it.
My snacks are: jerky, mixed nuts, easy cheese and crackers, salted caramels, mini donuts. My drinks are: water, black coffee, Coke, Mountain Dew, and cranberry juice. I'm ready to go.

This is basically what my map looks like. I'm not quite as sure about WI and MI, but I'm cautiously optimistic about them.
And while I am ultimately expecting for these states to remain blue, at the same time, I wouldn't be totally shocked if Trump caused an upset and flipped either VA, NH, or MN.
