What was your favorite moment of the 2020 campaign? Primaries included. Could be a debate moment or an interaction with press members or a voter.

Mine is for sure "would you shut up, man?"

If things from the immediate aftermath of the election count, it's somewhere between "ALL THE NETWORKS!" and Paula White's right wing grifter shamanism.

If it's strictly from before, then it's Biden's "you know, the thing" reinterpretation of the Declaration of Independence.

On Atlas, undoubtedly the Selzer poll meltdown.

On the actual campaign, Trump bragging about passing a dementia test (Person, woman, camera, TV) and Biden calling Trump a clown on the first debate.

The needle flipping Georgia from >90% Trump to >50% Biden.

We already knew that Biden was probably headed to the White House by that point, but it was a cathartic way to shut the door on the Trump Presidency.

It was a Covid Election and unless you have money to donate, it wasn't that great of an Election, Biden won due to Covid exacerbating the income gap between the rich and poor and some people haven't gotten their stimulus or tax refunds

Not sure if this counts but the night of Jan. 5

The debates were also quite memorable to watch, Trump completely imploded.

In the primaries, Biden's come-from-behind domination on Super Tuesday. In the general, undoubtedly the election call.

Exactly. Though, I'm not supposed to say this, but Trump catching Covid was pretty funny.

Technicaly it was the end of the campagin but the press conference at 4 seasons total landscaping at the time the election was finally called.

Otherwise probably the tweeting the trumps cancelling negoiations.

Primaries: Warren destroying Bloomberg

General: The End

 Loved this, also when a grown man and billionaire named Leon Cooperman cried on live TV at the notion of paying more taxes because of Warren.

Even though the euphoria only lasted a week and a half, I was super happy when Bernie won the Nevada caucuses by a large margin and with strong support from Latino/a voters in the state. To a lesser extent, I was also happy that Bernie won California on Super Tuesday, although the rest of the night was disappointing.

In the general election, I was relieved when PA was called for Biden and I could finally use my Teen Titans meme I'd been saving all year.

Not a "moment", but the Trump-has-COVID eon was good fun in retrospect.

Early on the morning of November 6, when I became fully confident that Biden would win.

I got in my car and drove down State Street in Salt Lake City with the windows down, playing the song Here Comes The Sun. It was beautiful.
