It’s official, there will be elections in Wisconsin tomorrow (in-person voting only). The state GOP part sued the state to keep elections tomorrow, and the Wisconsin Supreme Court agreed with them that elections must take place tomorrow (and that voting must be done in person). I swear the GOP wants to spread this virus :wacko:

It seems like we now more or less officially have our presidential candidates (well, for the main parties) as Sanders drops out according to CNN.

I’m mourning :cry:

 

Californians are not happy with the rest of the country right now. Our community pages are the most toxic I’ve seen them in a while :d

I’m getting the feeling that Trump will win in Novemeber...

 

Hopefully he doesn’t, but I’m exactly getting the right feel from Biden’s campaign yet...

The Presidential Candidate of the US Green Party tweeted this out today.

I’ll probably vote Green to try and help get them federal benefits to strengthen their position, and hopefully make them a viable third party choice one day.

Hard to say 7 months before the elections. Biden is winning in the polls, both nationally and in the main battleground states, but this far from an election, those really don't mean that much. The corona situation could end up meaning a lot, but it's unsure. Meanwhile Biden will surely think about what he can give the Sanders (and to some extent Warren) supporters to get their votes as well as who he'll go for as VP.

    • And even here we lose to France? I really don't know what's the point of organizing the Olympics if you can't make progress in practically any sport. France has the Olympics in 2030 and there they will definitely prepare 100%, just like for Paris. We can't do that. It's obvious that in ski jumping we have no chance of winning medals, but decency dictates that we should at least win here with a France like that.
    • Finally the ski jumping season begins 11 teams in the (real) mixed team competition, no Switzerland.
    • Most of our athletes are constantly bothered by something: the pressure to qualify, the miss of pressure when they have already qualified, etc. It's the same in football: at the beginning of the season they are a poor form becouse of a little played and at the end of the season they are tired. They are always looking for excuses. A real champion always plays at a high level, like Sinner, and doesn`t look for 1000 excuses for his poor performance.
    • Think it is mentally difficult for the two teams with the Olympic place guaranteed and the pressure off, whereas everyone else is absolutely playing at 110%.  I'm sure things will be better once they get to Milan. 
    • There's no point in cheating, these were terrible European Championships for us. Retronaz out of form, Constantini with a huge number of big mistakes. Only illness can excuse it... We've probably lost the last 10 matches with Switzerland... It looks like Constantini had the tournament of her life in mixed doubles in 2022 in Beijing and she will never reach this level again.
    • What good is it to us if we took 4th place and lost an important match? If Constantini was sick, I forgive her, but I'm afraid that the Italian team will not exceed a certain level. Yes, they have made progress since 2022, but they lack that one decisive step to become a class team. Here we lost all important matches with teams at our/higher level: Sui x2, Sco x2, Swe. We only won with the one we were supposed to win with. I don't believe in a medal for this team in Cortina. After 2022, it seemed that Constantini could dominate women's curling, but it didn't happen that way. After Sinner's recent successes, I opened my eyes a bit and started to demand more from our athletes, coaches, and officials. I have no intention of being satisfied with 4th place, because with this approach, you won't achieve anything great.
    • play their best, but only get 1, so  get bronze 6-4!  
    • Oh dear, once again a 50% shot from Constantini when she needed 100%.   blank the end & go into the 10th with the Hammer of Thor.  
    • Very quick end &  get 2 back to 6=3, but  have the hammer in ninth....
