I read that the voter turnout is even higher than last time. I really like to see that Americans go vote, no matter what they voted for. The people did their job, and most importantly, peacefully.
In terms of Musk, it’s good to see that even the richest person in the world can’t damage the core of American democracy, which is free and democratic elections.
You can buy people to play your Videogames for you so you can brag about how good you are on X, you can buy engineers to develop shit for you and then be celebrated for something you didn’t invent, but apparently you can neither buy a US Election nor a handjob from a flight attendant if you allegedly promise to buy her a horse in return.

What a shellacking. A potential Dem Senate seat in Mississippi is not something I could imagine yesterday, and I expected a giant blue wave.
The results in Texas are mind boggling. Elon Musk must be shook considering the money he poured in. What a debacle.
There is a fair chance that Musk putting his thumb on the scale backfired.
