FredselfishErarly voting in Oklahoma. Lets hope this isn't our last election.
𝕾𝖕𝖎𝖈𝖞 𝕿𝖚𝖓𝖆Hello, fellow Okie.
I know how this state is going to vote. It’s been a given every year for nearly six decades. But I’m still gonna vote, as I have in every election since I turned 18. Change doesn’t happen if those who want it get discouraged and sit their asses at home.
What has really inspired me this year is the overwhelming majority of Harris-Walz signs in my neighborhood. I stopped counting, but I reckon there are at least thirty of them. I’ve seen a grand total of five Trump-Vance signs, and three of them are at the same house.
CrozekielI’d be very happy just to see Oklahoma actually wait until the polls close to declare the republican presidential win…
I swear every year, they decide it so early I am convinced the electors don’t even care what the vote counts are. There is no fucking way backwards as fuck Oklahoma figured out a way to accurately track and count votes faster than any other state - and voter turnout would need to be so high they know it can’t possibly turn around in the last 2 hours of the polls still being open? Yea right.
pelespiritIt’s because of the small population. They can tell that there is no way for the other person to take over by a certain time if they have a certain percentage that have already voted.
For example: If you have 100 people voting and 70 people have turned theirs in with 3 of those going to the other side, there is no way the side with 3 votes can win.
It’s not that small a population…I know 4 million isn’t a ton compared to several other states, but it’s not tiny either.
It works in larger populations too, they just go by counties and towns. The math is still the same.
