    The fate of the nation and world is at stake while liberals thrill themselves with the betting markets like the gamesters of Triskelion. :bergman:

    The last person who threatened to leave someone "friendless, brainless, helpless, hopeless . . . unemployed in Greenland" met an inconceivably bad end soon thereafter.

    Besides, this bunch seems better suited for Gilligan's Island. :ramen:

    The smoking gun is coming, I just know it is! Wikileaks has emails that will put her in prison, and they sat on them until after a huge chunk of people had already voted for ... um ... dramatic effect! Yes, that's it! This NEXT leak will have the big one ... it will, it will, it will!

    Clinton: 341, Trump - 197
    Senate: 50/50
    House: Dems +14
    McMullen - 19%


    There is some possibility that if Florida is called early and the prevailing wisdom becomes that Trump is doomed, that some Trump turnout in AZ will be depressed and Clinton will overtake him there but I'm not confident enough in that to predict it.

    I've been too focused on local to dive into the weeds so I'm going to go out on a limb and go stronger Dem than I actually think will likely happen, b/c I don't feel confident winning a tie breaker.

    The race is virtually impossible to predict because we have no idea how much voter fraud the Democrats have lined up. Aside from all the dead people and cartoon characters, and the hacking of voting machines, Obama is telling illegal aliens to go ahead and vote because they're "citizens" if they live here.

    No dumbass.



    Obama said, "There is not a situation where the voter rolls are somehow transferred over and people start investigating, etc. The sanctity of the vote is strictly confidential."

    Now if a person isn't an illegal alien they wouldn't care if the voter rolls are transferred over.

    The only reason Obama is saying what he did is to encourage illegal aliens to cast illegal, invalid votes.

    I'm just going through writing all these down -- in the House do you mean a D gain of 14 or a majority of 14?

    I am going with Clinton at 302, Dems with 51 in the senate, and Repubs retain house due to gerrymandering. I will find the exact numbers and edit.

    Edit: 28 for the guy in Utah.

    I am going with 234 for the Republican house count.

    Trump babbles the election is rigged!
    If so, & in the unfortunate event he wins it, then that must mean he bought off the election! What other conclusion could one reach in that event?

    Trump won't accept the outcome if he loses!
    What a whiny crybaby immature infantile little dingleberry! Sorry Trump, if you lose the election, you LOSE THE ELECTION! You HAVE TO accept the outcome.


    I hope both sanity & intelligence win out in today's Presidential Election.

    Hillary's not a saint by any means, but she's better than Trump!

    It's a national disgrace & embarrassment that Trump got as far as he has.

    That the number of live smart people who are utterly fed up with a corrupt system managed to outweigh all the fake and fraudulent votes the corrupt Democratic election machine produced.

    No, he doesn't, and neither do his supporters. There is nothing in the Constitution that says the American public has to accept the outcome of a rigged and corrupt system. In fact, the Founding documents encourage people to take up arms and throw off their oppressors and institute new government.

    Of course submitting a last-minute estimate is already gaming the system, not that there's anything wrong with that.

    The GOP couldn't stop him, and then realized that they would be held accountable by Trump supporters, which is pretty much the GOP base.
