  3. Betting platforms had Trump winning on Election Day 2020. I wouldn’t put much stock into this

  4. > according to an online betting company.

    We’re posting vegas odds for elections now?

  5. Register to vote.

    Help friends check their voter registration status.

    Make a plan to vote.

    Offer to drive a friend to vote with you.

    Sign up to work the election if you’re able to.

    EDIT: [LINK TO VOTE.ORG FOR VISIBILITY!](https://www.vote.org/)

  6. I hate this part… because you know there are people out there that assume “She’s going to win… I don’t really need to vote”.

    Please… do not be this person. EVERYONE needs to vote.

  7. Ignore the noise on the right.
    DEMOCRATS: Organize and Vote Early.

  10. This is the best tl;dr I could make, [original](https://www.newsweek.com/kamala-harris-donald-trump-election-betting-1933011) reduced by 81%. (I’m a bot)

    > For the first time since launching her presidential campaign, Kamala Harris is predicted to win the 2024 election, according to an online betting company.

    > Online prediction market PredictIt shows that Harris is the favorite to win in November, with shares of a Harris victory being sold for 52 cents, while shares for a Donald Trump victory are being sold at 50 cents.

    > Harris first moved ahead of Trump in odds on the platform on Wednesday afternoon, before moving into a tie shortly after 6 p.m. ET and later retaking the lead. However, other betting platforms show that Trump has a lead over Harris.

  11. … by one prediction market. Polymarket still has Trump leading by an 11% margin. Please vote.

    How this is bad for Kamala Harris.

    On the next Newseek”

    Newsweek will also have six articles today about how Trump is crushing it.

    I wish we could ban Newsweek from this sub.

  15. Remember that down ballot is just as critical. Local and state races are vital to making sure anyone who wants to implement Project 2025 is kept far from office. 

  17. Didn’t we all agree Newsweek should be banned from this sub. Please people no matter what you read just go and vote. Nothing is over until it’s actually over… These headlines can be very misleading and polls are not always accurate

  21. I call BS. Make sure you vote. Not voting is a vote for Trump.

  22. What makes me angry about all this is that 49% of people still think trump is the worthy candidate. This problem will not be fixed on November the 5th, even if Kamala wins. It will only delay the inevitable. Which is the movie idocracy.

  23. Don’t get complacent. Vote. Check your registration status

  25. The only way we make sure this happens is by VOTING!!

    MAKE Harris win by such a large margin that any rat fuckery by the Republicans won’t matter.

  27. We remember 2016. Just vote people! That’s the only thing that counts.

  28. The only certainties we can get here is the GOP will use these results to get THEIR Vote out.

    Also, a certain someone is absolutely raging right now, and we need to see him unleashed with some more deliciously professional, hard hitting questioners again like those at the National Association of Black Journalist yesterday…

    Watching them put his feet to the fire, and his arse catch up was absolute joy…

  29. God that headline is terrible. She is a very small favorite in one betting market, and an underdog in others.

    Her current momentum is amazing, but let’s please do better on stating the current status. She is still a bit of an underdog in most metrics but gaining nicely.

  30. And it has only been a week. Register, write letters, donate, help others register. Please, holy shit, do whatever you can

  31. We heard this before in 2016. Do NOT let up and make ABSOLUTELY SURE that you are registered to vote! They are purging voters and doing everything they can to subvert democracy! Vote like your life depends on it because for many people, it does.

  32. If you think Harris is fine and doesn’t need your vote, you’re electing Trump. That’s all this is to it. He will cheat, steal and lie if the margin is not overwhelming and unquestionable. Do.you.duty.

  33. In 2016 people we’re lackadaisical about Hillary. She was a Clinton, old news. Trump was the “breath of fresh air” even what he says is disgusting.

    People are enthusiastically about Harris because she is that breath of fresh air and Trump is “old news.”

  34. Hilary won the popular vote by 3 million votes and still lost the electoral college. Biden won by 7 million votes to win the EC.

    Register. Vote. Talk to people. When we show up we win.

  35. Do not get complacent. Let’s beat these MFers so bad that they go back into hiding for a few decades. VOTE and get the people you love to VOTE.

  37. Vote, Vote, Vote for Harris! Also note it is still very close and per that same article “Meanwhile, in the latest poll conducted by The New York Times and Siena College, Trump was leading Harris by 2 points among registered voters and 1 point among likely voters.”

    Also Vote for every democrat on your ballot, to ensure R’s don’t block her initiatives, like they did with Obama.

  38. I hope everyone’s 2016 election PSTD is alive and well

    NEVER get complacent

  39. This is the chance to end the MAGA movement. Trump will be far too old in 2028. Let’s do this.

  40. It’s not good enough to be winning.

    We need to run their cult into the fucking ground. End it once and for all.

    Register to vote. Blow them away.

  41. For anyone who didn’t read the article, Newsweek is reporting on a betting platform. This isn’t news.

    Vote.

  42. Kamala Harris should post of a video of her making Desi food while listening to Beyonce and dancing with Douglas Emhoff, her Jewish husband, in their kitchen.

    It will destroy Trump and MAGA brains for a solid week.

  43. As a Brit, if I can give US voters one piece of advice about how we rid ourselves of a dysfunctional right wing lunatic Government. It was by making sure that as many people were motivated to vote as possible. We still had a low turnout because of voter apathy, but those who did turn out overwhelmingly voted for positive parties and punished the incumbent idiots.

    With Trump having been the front runner, the same tactics stand.

    You can do this USA. We are all counting on you.

  45. I keep hearing republicans ( especially at my job) talk about how trump already “won” the election since the assassination attempt. I hope they keep being that confident and it comes back to bite them in the ass.
