As of right now, there’s still 12% of the vote still to be counted in Nassau, the vast majority of which are mail-in ballots. Pretty sure Biden will win Nassau.

When I lived in garden city in 2008, nobody and I mean NOBODY admitted to voting Republican. When all was said and done GC went for McCain 70%. Even then people were afraid of being cancelled.

Is it true that only 3% of asians vote? That's kind of ridiculous.

Both my neighbors on each side assumed I voted for Hillary 2016, because they assumed I must have been devasted when Trump was elected everytime I chat with them. I'm asian, so they assume I vote for D like a sheep. They are type with Biden/Harris signs on the lawn. I don't want to get cancelled.

Would see a couple of trump flags on my morning walks. Only a few Biden signs. Was definitely surprised to see even one Trump sign.

I guess it depends where on the south shore you are lol. Its the opposite for me. My parents live in Commack and I wouldnt blink twice putting a trump sign up. Even if people disagree they are civil. Maybe a neighbor would stop waving but who cares. Where I am in Islip I would never put a trump sign up... these people are nuts

Would cancel culture still exist if the people getting cancelled for trivial "offenses" actually stood up for themselves? I recall earlier this year, some people tried cancelling Trader Joe's because of how they named their private-label products.

Trader Joe's politely told them to ****, and that was that. Maybe if more people afraid of being canceled did that, we wouldn't have cancel culture anymore.
