You can already see the jockeying for position for the “most somber take” award on the (hopefully) looming Democratic Election Day disaster. I read CNN’s pre-post-mortem (Is there such a thing?) and it’s a wallow. The headline is a snort in itself – every last drop of deep Democratic disappointment condensed into a sentence. Take a gander at this:
Democrats confront their nightmare scenario on election eve as economic concerns overshadow abortion and democracy worries
“Overshadow.” That’s it, right there in a nutshell.

Finally, the wait is over. There’s a little bit of NFL football to watch tonight and then it’s off to bed. When we all wake up, election day will be upon us. So where do things stand? Depending on who you ask, you’ll get a range of answers. Democrats are now convinced Nevada’s early voting totals mean they’ll pull the upset in the state’s senate race. Likewise, Republicans are confident that the late shift towards Mehmet Oz will deliver his senate race in Pennsylvania. All across the nation, there are conflicting projections ranging from a red wave to a Democrat shocker

Though rumors swirled throughout the day Monday that Donald Trump would announce a 2024 presidential run at his Ohio rally — and during parts of his rally it sounded like he would — Trump ended the rally by highlighting the terrible state of the economy, civil liberties, military readiness, education, and more in the United States, then imploring voters across the country to get out to the polls Tuesday and vote for Republican candidates. On Monday morning, Daily Caller congressional correspondent Henry Rodgers tweeted that there was a 50/50 chance that Trump would announce a 2024 run Monday night.

It is truly a new era at Twitter! Yet another tweet from Joe Biden’s official presidential account has been fact-checked!
In a tweet posted Sunday, Biden used a more flattering metric on gas prices—a major issue of the 2022 midterm elections—and got slapped with a context fact-check. “Right now, the most common price at gas stations across the country is $3.19 per gallon,” Biden tweeted Sunday. “That’s progress.” It’s also grossly misleading because the average price is $3.80/gallon—a full 61 cents higher than the price Biden quoted, and context has been added to the tweet to differentiate between the most common price and the average.

Normalville, Pennsylvania — If there were a way to illustrate the beginning, middle, and end of this election cycle in four powerful moments, I’d start with the faces of the men and women working on the construction of the Keystone pipeline, and the owners of the small businesses who supported them, that I witnessed days after President Joe Biden terminated their livelihoods.
These are people who work with their hands in the harshest of weather conditions digging trenches, cleaning feeder pipes, laying concrete, ensuring the proper fittings on the connecting pipes, and loading and unloading heavy materials by hand. That's not including the faces of the people who run the motels,

If you want a bit of schadenfreude on Election Eve, some new polls might leave you grinning. Over the weekend, new data showed Democrats that minorities are migrating to Republican candidates in a historic shift, and the electorate sees them as focused on all the wrong things. All Democrats had to do was not be crazy. Biden inherited an economy in recovery and a nation looking to take a collective deep breath. Instead, Democrats decided to destroy the economy and push transing the kids. Voters noticed. According to a Wall Street Journal poll, 17% of black voters would pick a Republican candidate for Congress.

On Monday morning ahead of Tuesday’s almost certain Republican tsunami at the ballot box, ABC’s Good Morning America (GMA) and CBS Mornings moved away from a fixation on abortion or vague warnings about the fate of democracy if voters choose incorrectly.
Instead, they engaged in voter suppression by hinting a vote for Republicans could be enabling violent individuals who’d cause violence and/or cause serious doubts to be raised about our country’s future. GMA co-host Amy Robach didn’t mince words, insisting there are “rising voting threats” as “[i]ntelligence officials say extremists could target election infrastructure, personnel, or even voting sites.”

My research team is currently monitoring online political content being sent to voters in swing states through more than 2,500 computers owned by a politically-diverse group of registered voters (our “field agents”), and we are concerned about what we’re seeing.
We are aggregating and analyzing search results on the Google and Bing search engines, messages displayed on Google’s home page, autoplay videos suggested on YouTube, tweets sent to users by the Twitter company (as opposed to tweets sent by other users), email suppression on Gmail, and more.

We’re all paying attention to five or six big races and one that is just under the surface is the gubernatorial race in Oklahoma. The race between Republican incumbent Governor Kevin Stitt and Democrat Joy Hofmeister is a real sleeper of an election. The red state governor may well lose to his Democrat challenger and that is not good news in a red wave election cycle.
In the middle of October some headlines began surfacing about Oklahoma’s gubernatorial race because it was turning out to be an unexpected squeaker. Governor Stitt, I wrote at the time, was expected to win re-election but it was predicted to be a close race

It’s beginning to look a lot like Biden-mas as we arrive at Election Eve. The predicted Red Wave now looks inevitable, as we have watched The Sudden Republican Momentum® narrative unfold as expected in such cycles. Despite a last-moment Hail Mary from NBC News in giving Dems a +1 in their latest generic-ballot poll — which would still look good for Republicans — the current RCP aggregate average gives the GOP a 2.5% advantage and support at a year-long high.
Worth noting, though: the sample split in the NBC News poll was 35% Democrats, 30% Republicans, and 31% independents. NBC then assigns leaners to the parties

As the lull before the storm continues prior to election day, the takes continue to get dumber. Republicans have begun a new round of dooming based on what can only be called a late vibe shift (i.e. not backed by real data), but Democrats aren’t exactly exhibiting confidence either. Enter Politico, which decided it’d be a great idea to drop an article about election fraud on the eve of voters going to the polls. Guess which party they think is going to try to “steal” the election this time and then try not to break your ribs from laughing so hard.

Is there any lie that's just too brazen for old Joe Biden?
Seems not. Biden set his record straight for a leftist protestor in New York, at a Kathy Hochul rally, declaring that drilling wasn't happening: According to the Washington Examiner, which seemingly misread Biden's yawps as campaign promises instead of present-tense statements of his record:
“No more drilling,” he said, waving his hand with a back and forth motion. “There is no more drilling. I haven’t formed any new drilling.”
The person was holding up a sign that read, "5 more years of drilling is a lose lose!," and could be heard yelling back at Biden about offshore leases. He responded,
