Introduction
Good afternoon, outliers! Happy Election Day! Coming to you live from Election HQ over at Fox News, I hope you’re having an incredible Tuesday. If you haven't voted yet, please make sure to do so today—tomorrow won’t count, so it’s important to vote now. If I may suggest, voting for Donald J. Trump would be a smart choice.
I’ll share my plan for the evening. While many YouTube channels will be live streaming the event, I won’t have the time for that. Instead, I’ll be gathering around the TV with friends, enjoying McDonald’s and Diet Coke while we wait for Trump to hopefully come home with a victory tonight.
Now, let me clarify my stance—I don't identify with a particular political party; I vote based on issues. Personally, I want less taxes and more freedoms. That's it. It's a simple request. I don't agree with filling the U.S. with illegal immigrants, and I strongly oppose putting boys in girls' sports. Those are my main concerns, and from my perspective, the other side just has too much stacked against it to comprehend how anyone could vote for them.
Regarding the election itself, Republicans seem to be doing quite well. As reported, this appears to be shaping up as a very “trumpy” and red electorate coming out to vote. Although we are still early in the day, all major indicators currently point to a significant Republican turnout.
Many of us remain traumatized from the events of 2020, when it seemed Trump was winning until suddenly the projections flipped overnight. We are all on edge, but so far, the signs look promising for the Republicans. Guam has started reporting results, which, while largely ceremonial, may indicate momentum.
Did you know that U.S. territories like Guam and Puerto Rico do not have electoral votes? That’s right. Residents of these territories cannot vote in presidential elections. It’s essential to understand this as we look at turnout and results, especially as some people were confused about how those votes factor into the overall electoral process.
In swing states, the early voting dynamics are shifting significantly. Democratic turnout appears to be declining in states that were previously strongholds in 2020. Indicators show that Republicans have a substantial early-voting lead, raising questions about Democratic voters who elected to skip voting today.
Key metrics from Clark County, Nevada—a historically blue area—also show interesting numbers. So far, Republicans are edging ahead in the early vote, while Democrats have reported a noticeable decline. And it doesn’t end there. Issues of racial voting dynamics also come into play. Early polls indicate Trump might gain higher support within the Black community, a significant departure from historical trends.
As for my trading insights, I won't be risking any capital during the election. With uncertain market conditions, I would advise caution, although I’m here to support you in making informed trading decisions.
