Candidates Kamala Harris and Donald Trump both wrapped up their campaign stops yesterday, with Harris receiving support from celebrities at events around the country including Lady Gaga, Beyoncé, and Jon Bon Jovi.
Trump appeared to be unimpressed, going so far as to say there was "no happiness" and that the press neglected to show how the audience "booed like hell" after the "Texas Hold 'Em" singer's showing.
This is in contrast to Trump's own rally, which blew Harris' out of the water with notable guests such as Megyn Kelly, the son of a former MLB player, and the rigid corpse of Peanut the squirrel.

The tiny town of Dixville Notch, New Hampshire is the first to complete in-person voting after opening polls in a living room at midnight and finishing up at 12:15 a.m.
The result was an even 3-3 split, yet Trump has already called for an investigation after learning poll workers were able to count to six within 15 minutes.

Businesses in Washington, D.C. are preparing for potential election-related violence by boarding up windows and erecting temporary fencing. Police have also stepped up their presence in all eight wards of the city.
Appearances are very similar in Los Angeles, where officials have accounted for disgruntled citizens by lining the streets with brave volunteers repeatedly saying "Mhmm, I hear you" and wearing "free hug" t-shirts.

JD Vance cast his ballot in Cincinnati this morning, saying "You never know until you know, but I feel good about this."
Continued the vice presidential hopeful, "And that's saying something because I've never felt anything before. I am very uncomfortable, actually."

The FBI is pushing back against a viral clip which uses the bureau's name and insignia to push a false narrative that individuals should cast mail-in votes due to serious threats of terrorism at polling places.
However, this poses the question — if you're stuck with someone in line who won't stop spouting conspiracy theories, how long do you have to put up with it before it's okay to call them a terrorist?

Voting in Missouri is proving to be difficult this morning, as torrential downpours have led to road closures and one polling place even losing power.
"Tradesies?" asked Washington and Oregon, where ballot boxes are being set on fire for fun.
