Women are 'motivated' in this election

Another way of saying 'pissed'

Nov 01, 2024

The early voting signs are encouraging, and I have thought for at least the last month that VP Harris will prevail in this historic election. Women are motivated. Women are pissed. We are voting as one bloc.

I have had to talk several people down from spinning off. People are seriously anxious right now. Mine own anxiety was so high this summer I made a website actiondissolvesanxiety.com

It’s totally normal to spin off into “worst case scenarios” to try to prepare ourselves in case the worst does happen, but I feel super calm for some reason. I’m 99% sure the election is going to Harris. Remember all those Republicans in the primaries who voted for Nikki Haley, even after she dropped out? The Harris/Walz campaign is spending a lot of time courting Republicans and they wouldn’t waste their precious time if it didn’t give results. There is no way Democrats are breaking for him, but you can bet a lot of Republicans are breaking for her. Women are voting as a block and TFG’s campaign is even more off the rails than ‘normal’.

Below is a ‘homemade’ video (pretty damn slick!!) I first saw on FB two weeks ago and it's brilliant on the topic of women keeping their votes secret. I am glad that people have picked up this theme and are running with it with more professional versions. Women are pissed and are voting en masse.

I am feeling a lot of schadenfreude now as MAGA men freak out about their wives voting differently from them. Equating it to cheating on them. “Why would they lie to me?” Maybe, just maybe, because you’re a controlling narcissist and she cannot be honest with you as she fears for her own safety. Just a thought. 🤔

I am not particularly religious, but have definitely given over to: Show up, do the work, then let go and let god. Or whatever that actual quote is. I am surprisingly calm about it all now. I have done everything I can and have no control of the outcome now. Waiting is always the worst part. I don't want to talk or think about him any more. I am looking forward to the end of the Trump era, to him being relegated to the annals of history and to finally deflate like the overripe orange pumpkin he is. Be gone!

Calmly waiting for the results as worrying will not affect the outcome and only stress me out. Try to breathe.

I know that I have my own biases and live in my online bubble. The ‘algorithms’ and our own curations do not help with our blinders. And I know that for my own online mental health I curate hard. I don’t mind being exposed to other people’s viewpoints, that is actually a good thing. Healthy debate is necessary, however so much of it is vitriol that I use the block button extensively. But the amount of activism and enthusiasm I have seen in the past two months is staggering. I am in a couple of FB groups dedicated to making sure he is not in the White House come January and just WOW. Again, I know I am in my own bubble, but the anecdotes are so up-lifting. The official Democratic ground game is off the charts. The official Republican ground game has been stripped of funds to pay for TFG’s legal fees and Musk’s PAC is tricking people into canvassing. We’re not even comparing apples to oranges here, maybe apples to fiberboard.

But yeah, when she wins, MAGA will not go quietly into the night. And that is a problem. Luckily, TFG is not in a position of power. He isn’t the President, he doesn’t have control of the military, and I think he’s going to get trounced hard enough that the general establishment will accept the results no matter how many legal tricks his team pulls. Good luck to him even trying to get a permit for a protest in DC if he loses. No way that would be approved after Jan 6.

Harris’ To-Do list is great, but I have more things to add. As we well know, a woman's work is never done. My fervent hope is that Congress becomes fully Democratic and the John Lewis Voting Act is passed. We need to reform the Supreme Court and the Electoral College, make Washington DC and Puerto Rico states with actual representation in the US Government and so much more.
