#MariaShriver asked #KamalaHarris about what she is doing to de-stress, saying that Americans say they’re turning off the news, they’re doing yoga, “they’re eating gummies….”
The crowd laughed & #Harris said: “Not eating gummies,” w/a chuckle. Harris said she does have trouble sleeping. She said she works out in the morning & that her family helps to keep her grounded.
#KamalaHarris also said that Americans should not #despair. Everyone in a #democracy has the ability to make a decision about the future through their votes. “Let’s not feel powerless,” she said. “That’s not in our nature.”

11 Things to Say to Persuade Someone to Vote
As trust in major institutions declines, people are increasingly persuaded to vote by those in their social networks.Angela Haupt (Time)
Just vote early. It frees up volunteers to knock on other people's doors. And it's really not that hard. Just vote early.

Don’t say ‘vote’: How Instagram hides your political posts
WaPo #tech columnist Geoffrey A. Fowler investigates how #Meta’s #Instagram, #Facebook & #Threads suppress #content related to the #election. Even discussing how to #vote isn’t safe.
…Fowler shows exactly how #democracy dies on Instagram.

Via Stephen Fowler:
Today’s the first day of early voting in #NorthCarolina, and I spent part of it in Yancey County, one of the hardest-hit areas still reeling after Helene.
Elections director says *RECORD* turnout of over 600 voters so far today, including people who’ve lost everything.
"... the selection of the nation’s leaders should not degenerate into a spending contest, with the victor being the candidate who can pay the most voters.”

The #crypto industry has now spent $40 million dollars to defeat #SherrodBrown in #Ohio. That's apparently more money than Brown's previous 3 opponents combined.
According to Politico almost half of corporate PAC money and almost 9% of the total money spent on #Congressional elections has now come from an industry whose sole goal is to legalize securities #fraud. Brown is critical for them to knock off because he sits on the #Senate banking committee.

Having spent 10 years conducting national polls at two research universities, I can assure you that the polls don’t tell us anything at this point. They simply generate press.

Jimmy Carter, at age 100, casts his 2024 ballot by mail
Jimmy Carter has cast his ballot in the 2024 election. The Carter Center in Atlanta says the former president voted by mail Wednesday. Its brief statement gave no further details. Carter celebrated his 100th birthday on Oct.AP News
16 years ago, when I cast my ballot for Barrack Obama, I had a feeling of hope and optimism. Today I cast my ballot for Kamala Harris and I again have a feeling of hope.
The stakes are so much higher in this election. The other side in 2008 had policies and goals that I didn't agree with, but could live with. The other side today truly frightens me.
We will either continue our Democracy or descend into a Christian nationalist/fascist state.
Remember, the last debate, the lying, liar lied every 3.9 seconds. It was an avalanche of lies. The orange dictator wannabe told over 602 verified lies in 40 minutes. A literal firehose of falsehoods.
Every day we see more unprecedented lies about everything.
The convicted fraud and sexual abuser facing dozens of felonies in 3 states and federal jurisdictions; has half a billion dollars in federal judgments he has no way to pay; he will declare personal bankruptcy —face new criminal cases in several jurisdictions; and is suffering inexplicable daily mental lapses.
And he lies constantly. He is mentally and ethically unfit.

VOTING PRO TIPS:
—if you are mailing in your vote, send it NOW — post office delays are going to be epic this year, intentional and otherwise
—if you have Early Voting available DO IT — early enthusiasm counts plus you avoid any unforeseen illnesses/accidents that might keep you from voting
—most states track your mail-in ballot, from when they send it to you to when they receive it back; use the online tools to make sure your ballot is safely returned and counted

Trump is set to sell off $300 million worth of #WLFI crypto tokens to... [someone] next week. Remember that because this is #crypto there are no laws around disclosing investors (or pretty much anything else).
If I were a betting man I'd guess we might find a lot of #Russian and #Saudi names in the investor list (if we were allowed to look at it, which we aren't).

Will both chambers flip? #Congress may once again have to work under the strain of divided government. With <4 weeks to go, #Republicans appear poised to win the Senate, which is currently controlled by the Democrats. The #Democrats, meanwhile, seem to have a slight edge in the race for the Republican-controlled House.

They call themselves “pro-life” but it’s a lie. Abortion bans - by design - exclude the life of the mother as a life to be valued and saved. Her life is not counted.
Even when there is no other life, only an unviable clump of cells, parasitic from the start, that is killing her, “pro-lifers” will not intervene to save the life of the mother.
Every single pregnancy is a risk to the mother’s life.
Every single one.

Elon #Musk makes his first appearance at a #Trump #rally and casts the #election in dire terms
Before a large crowd Saturday, Musk sought to portray Trump as a champion of free speech, arguing that Democrats want “to take away your #freedom of speech, they want to take away your right to bear arms, they want to take away your right to vote, effectively.” Musk went on to criticize a California effort to ban voter ID requirements.
