He's a ****ing racist, mysoginitic, bigoted and childish peice of scum. Regardless of the Hilary situation he has no right being anywhere near an election.

The sooner he loses and the can of worms spills out, the better.

 

[JanjaWeed]

So Hilary wins...& impeachment proceedings in her first year if republicans retain both house & senate!

@Desert Fox come on, man. You have only a few hours left to come up with some more swamp pictures. Your later inputs are a bit lame. Oh, where is @T-72 -- possibly sleeping in India. He'll find out tomorrow.

PS. My uber-Democrat neighbor coming over in one hour to watch the results. Over some spicy Pakistani foods, beers, and wine. We'll both enjoy the show except he probably won't like me voting Jill. We'll manage it.

Record-breaking early voting fuels Democratic optimism

More than 46 million votes have been cast before Election Day.

More than 46 million votes have been cast in advance of Election Day, breaking records in state after state and suggesting the prospect of a heightened Hispanic turnout that could upend politics in several battleground states.

While there’s no way to know whether Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump is ahead, the available data about who has voted so far, and where, provides some insight into what the results might hold. There are signs of an unusually diverse electorate, marked by robust Hispanic numbers in places like Florida and Nevada. Women seem to have turned out in disproportionately high numbers in some states. In others, Republicans appear to have made late gains.

Here are five storylines that have emerged from the early voting period:

A Latino turnout surge

Democrats had been muddling through the early voting periods in Nevada and Florida. Then in the final days, black and Latino voters flooded polling places, fueling Democratic optimism in both states.

“Just since last week, the percentage of the electorate that's white has gone from 71 then over the last few days from 68.6 to 68.0, to 67.4, to 68.8,” Florida Democratic strategist Steve Schale wrote in an early vote analysis on Monday. “Since Thursday, there has been no day when the electorate has been more than 61% white. This is the Clinton recipe for winning.”

Through last Wednesday, according to University of Florida early vote expert Daniel Smith, more than 429,000 Hispanic voters had cast ballots at in-person voting locations. That's a 158 percent increase from the same period four years earlier.

And Nevada – once considered one of the most Trump-friendly of the battleground states – may be out of reach for Republicans on Election Day. Surging Latino turnout in populous Clark County – where some polls stayed open hours passed their closing time to let voters in line finish casting ballots – helped drive up the Democratic vote margin over the weekend, if Trump is doing as poorly among Latinos as some polls suggest. That Clark County scene prompted an angry rebuke from state GOP chairman Michael McDonald at a Trump rally Saturday. McDonald, opening for Trump, said the polls were kept open late “so a certain group could vote.”

The African American vote in North Carolina is a different story. There, analysts say that black voters have been disproportionately affected by restrictions on early voting and a tightened early vote schedule. Still, black voters managed to narrow the disparity with 2012 turnout in the final days of the race, comprising increasingly bigger shares of the total ballots each day.

An uptick in unaffiliateds

It’s a nearly universal trend.

Unaffiliated voters made up a greater and greater share of the early electorate across the country — in particular in North Carolina and Florida, in an election where the nominees of both major parties face sky-high unfavorable ratings. In North Carolina, through Thursday, a quarter of the votes cast were from unaffiliated voters, up more than 40 percent over 2012 totals at the same time, according to data posted Sunday by Michael Bitzer, an expert on the early vote at Catawba College.

In Florida, according to Schale’s number-crunching, voters without party affiliation made up about 22 percent of the vote through Monday morning. That’s about 1.4 million votes.

While that development makes it harder to divine which candidate is leading, Michael McDonald, an early vote expert who runs the U.S. Elections Project, said there are signs that Clinton stands to gain at least some from unaffiliated voters. Many of them, he noted, are younger and members of minority communities — constituencies that lean left.

“In Florida, part of this has to do with age,” McDonald said. “Younger people tend not to affiliate with a party. In Florida, Latinos tend not to affiliate with a political party.” Read more

So Hilary wins...& impeachment proceedings in her first year if republicans retain both house & senate!

Yes, the Republicans won't take it sitting down. But, for impeachment, shouldn't there be 2/3rd in the Senate? Or an overall 2/3rd in the both houses? Either way, it is going to be logjams and ugly.
It doesn't look good for America at all. This should have been something like Romney vs Biden!!

?????????????????????????????????????????????? If you wanted MAGA you should have voted for Trump.

What on Earth is 'MAGA'??????????????????????????????????????????

Some Hindus are calling Trump Kalki. Kalki is an god who comes during the End Times kind of like Mahdi in Islam

wow.. I'm bit taken aback by FL trend. With 2% counted Trump leading 58 to 30%? Thought this was going to be a tight one & Hillary would nic it!

Two of the most unpopular candidates ever to contest. Whatever it is..it's not going to be smooth sailing for Hillary! You need senate nod for most of the appointments to higher offices including US SC! If republicans manage to hold on to both the houses, they will make Hillary's life hell...& do all they can to garner enough support to impeach her! There are more grounds to impeach her than there ever was for Bill Clinton!
