What has traditionally happened if a minor party becomes a promiate player one of the mainstream parties adopts its political point of view. You can see that now. The Republican Party has become a populist party, and are absorbing traditional Populist Democrats. It is fascinating to those of us who study US history in detail and are privileged to watch directly a National Correction.We have more than two parties. Green,Librarian and many more. The trouble is the two parties have a stronghold on the political system in the U.S.

I know we have multiple. I see them on the ballot. The issue, I think, is that not enough votes for them because no one has a history of what 3rd parties can do in any type of office. The 3rd parties don't even get on stage on the debates.We have more than two parties. Green,Librarian and many more. The trouble is the two parties have a stronghold on the political system in the U.S.

I used to enjoy following politics until it turn into a nasty version of professional wrestling.
Me too
I just got TWO this morning reminding me about the polls being open and I can't wait for it all to stop
I wish there were some switch I could flip with having voted already (did early voting back on Fri) so I don't have to keep getting these, mailers, etc
Yup
Just like 2020, there's no way we find out the winner tonight
I'd be shocked if that weren't the case
Oh, I sure hope not
We do NOT need a repeat of 1/6 after the madness that was the 2020 election
the burning question is... but did Siri understand you?
To each their own
I have never been fully into it, because the fact that I've seen it break families just makes me mad
To say that I'm so ready for today to come and go is a huge understatement
Sadly though, I don't think we'll see a winner declared tonight though just like 2020
I’m shocked people in the US are being bombarded with texts without the option to turn them off. We just had elections in Europe and I got… zero messages. Thanks EU Privacy!
Too bad this feature is not available outside the US. One of the candidates will cause a global system shock. So we can’t just look away.
My thoughts verbatim. It’s just too cool not to have.
As a grown adult, I’m going to melt my brain playing video games all night to distract myself.
If you have a blank wall, a projector and a treadmill you could do all of those three things at the same time!
This feels like the Alien vs. Predator movie poster: "Whoever wins... we lose."
If you listen to the left, voting right will end the world.
If you listen to the right, voting left will end the world.
They both have good and bad, it depends what you're looking at.

What time do the updates start tonight?
Apple News is providing Live Activities support for the 2024 U.S. presidential election, allowing iPhone and iPad users to track electoral results in real time directly from their Lock Screen.
The feature is rolling out for U.S. users over the course of Election Day, November 5, providing continuous updates of the electoral count. So if you're interested, you don't need to repeatedly check news websites or unlock your device.
If you have an iPhone 14 Pro or later model running iOS 16.1 or newer, or an iPad running iPadOS 17 or later, you can activate the feature through the Apple News app. Setting it up in advance ensures you won't miss any updates when coverage begins. Open the Apple News app and tap the prominent "Follow Live" button when prompted.
When active, the Live Activity will appear as an interactive widget on your Lock Screen – you can quickly access detailed coverage with a tap. For iPhone 14 Pro and newer models, updates will also be visible in the Dynamic Island at the top of the display, even if you're doing something else on your iPhone.

Well… you are doing a bad job since you are posting a comment in an election-related tech news article. 😂
The basics are that you would vote for candiates in a ranked order. Vote for A as a first choice and B as a second choice and C as a third. If any one wins 50+% they win. If it's 40-40-20 then C is knocked out and C's votes go to the second choice.
That’s only true in a normal situation with two normal rational candidates with opposing views to fix real societal problems.
This is not the case.
