As I said in my other post, that's certainly a big event, but it's not what set the tenor of the South Floridian Cuban subculture. The political refugees of the 50's were the Cuban aristocracy who fled to Miami and set the tone long before the boatlift.

I suspect they would be the same types as the Bolivian Coup supporters who thought that the Native Bolivians are Demon Possessed and had other less desirable qualities.
 
What's up with Nevada? Yesterday they decided to call it a day and knock off early and go home to kip before starting again tomorrow (today). At that point they were 75% done. Frustrating, but, fair enough, people do need sleep. So far today they've managed to increase that to...76% done.

And Georgia seems to have been on "99% complete" all day now.

Get on with it!

His identity politics require him to believe that 73+ million of his fellow countrymen aren't real Americans, but evil communists who should be disenfranchised of their basic right to vote. If not just lined up against a wall and shot for not voting Trump. Because he loves freedom and all that.

Hate to sound like I'm parroting Lindsey Graham, but Dems spent a fuck ton of money to retake the Senate and it mis-fired badly. FFS Susan Collins was re-elected and it wasn't even close enough to trigger the ranked-choice rules. I'm all for motivation and I've love to think those seats in GA are attainable. I don't necessarily think throwing ungodly sums of money at the problem is the difference-maker. IIRC this topic was well-covered in Freakonomics.

TV ads certainly don't seem to matter as much. That seems like a colossal waste of money. I barely watch any tv and this entire election season during the time I watched TV i saw one ad and it was for trump. Lol. All that money spent and I only see 1 ad.
Seems like the rule of the game has changed. You're better off paying iphone and android apps to run your ads than Tv these days. Or hire huge ground forces to canvas neighborhoods and go door to door.

As IronWing said, "latinos" is not a monolith and a very heterogeneous group.

you gotta wonder when white people say these things about latinos or asians or whatever, without considering the fact that you know, the things they have themselves said about whites in Georgia, or New York, or Chicago, or Texas, Alabama and California, lol. I mean, WHY DON'T THEY ALL THINK THE SAME?

Remember whatever happens, America voted Donald Trump in, despite what the communist party tries to tell us.

I found a lie in every one of your sentences.
 
Covid couldn’t kill off Donald Trump but Pennsylvania just might. Frankly, republicans did this to themselves by enacting crazy last minute new rules they figured to suppress the vote but instead only delayed the counting. Should have never screwed with the postal system, should have never delayed counting until the day of the election.

Surprised anyone is surprised by that sort of thing. I remember as a child witnessing an African woman bus conductor get into a row with a Jamaican woman passenger over the question of not having the 'exact change'. They both sounded like they were channelling the National Front. I feel far too inhibited to even report precisely any of what they said, but it was the exact same racist tropes about each group that you'd hear from a far-right white guy. Pretty sad, but also probably the way things have always been. If things were otherwise all powerful groups would have been overthrown by a rainbow coalition of the oppressed long ago.
