If you played our presidential debate bingo drinking game last night, you miiiiight have a mild case of alcohol poisoning this morning.
However, if you’re reading this, it looks like you survived the night. Congrats!
Sure, former president Donald Trump repeating false claims about “abortion after birth” (not a thing) and “immigrants eating dogs and cats” (also not a thing) wasn’t on our bingo cards. Neither was the bizarre Mad Lib about “transgender operations on illegal aliens that are in prison.”
Otherwise, we’d like to think our cards were pretty spot-on.
Will you step up to support New Times this year?
At New Times, we’re small and scrappy — and we make the most of every dollar from our supporters. Right now, we’re $16,750 away from reaching our December 31 goal of $30,000. If you’ve ever learned something new, stayed informed, or felt more connected because of New Times, now’s the time to give back.
Here, on one of our cards, is every bingo spot we crossed off during last night’s debate between Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris (If we missed any, please let us know!):

One might argue over whether to X the abortion square; we reluctantly (bingo!) left it blank because we were hoping for something Florida-specific. And President Biden came close to being a nonentity a couple of times, but falling asleep on the beach doesn’t count as dead.
At any rate, it was your bingo game. We just made the cards. So more power to ya if your mileage varied!
