    Default Weather favors a Democrat win

    Republlicans always pray for rain on election day because, as a Republican campaign worker once told me many years ago, "it sucks to be at a bus stop when it's raining."

    Although I haven't come across any numbers on predicted turnout yet, the weather across the nation favors mild conditions next week.

    When it comes to weather, this could be one of the more tranquil elections days on record for the U.S.

    The medium-range weather maps suggest a mostly dry and mild weather pattern across the U.S. by next Tuesday. And mild dry weather could help boost voter turnout.


    Note the Jetstream is north of the 48th parallel and temperatures will be mild. Even so, I strongly support voting ASAP. I already did last week.

    It's so sad that this is a valid point.

    Apparently not. At least historical fact points to that.

    Which works in Biden's favor, but as seen in the past, there's a big difference between spouting opinion and those actually showing up to vote. We'll know next week.

    In terms of Democrats voting out Republicans, I agree.

    Sane, calm and educated people read and understand the OP. Others, not so much. Wait until a week from tomorrow for your answer.

    It's reality. Rainbows and unicorns are great until someone finds out rainbows are only refraction of raindrops and all animals shit all over the yard.

    Could be. Still, the weather conditions favor a record turnout regardless of political affiliation. I'm sure we can agree an early blizzard would reduce turnout.

    I don't think we have an iota of data pointing to anyone voting Trump out previously. Just sayin'. lol

    You're going to get a whole lotta data though, coming right up.
