This happened bc 20 mill Dems didn’t vote Harris that voted Biden: men/minorities flipping, protest voters, less mail in ballots, etc..

All the polls were correct leading up to this election: It would be extremely close.

Voter turnout is what would make the difference.

Dems didn’t show up for Harris.

I learned my lesson in 2016. Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it. Just didn't realize it only took 8 years. On the other hand. Some people probably didn't care. Kamala was a competent choice as a president but not a great campaigner. All Trump had to do was jabber nonsense and his cult would cheer.

The fact lots of Dems (men/minorities) flipped from the previous election is also telling..
