I didn't know whether to start a new thread for this but we are finally here. Post predictions for 2016 election.

I am predicting that Clinton will win the national vote by between 3-4%.

She will win electoral vote 302-236. And I don't think that Trump will go quietly.

Senate will end up about 50-50.

GOP will retain the house.

This is what I was basically thinking. She won't go far above 300, but I think she hits it.

I want a Dem majority in the Senate, but it's going to end extremely close; bring on that Bernie chair of the budget committee!

I believe Clinton will get about 320 delegates. Even when an election isn't that close, the media has to invent a way to make it seem close or nobody would bother watching.

My concern is will Trump concede or will he continue to create more discourse? Will there be violence from the most fringe elements of his supporters? He has planted the seed that everything is rigged to the point that his supporters will honestly believe the election was stolen from them.

Trump says he never loses. When he does, he blames everything but him.

I think there may be even more serious issues seen after this election than before and during it.

I'm going to a movie with my girlfriend tonight. I'm over this entire thing. Tonight we chose the hangman's robe color. Nothing more. Dr. Strange looks like a cool escape from the horrible reality of knowing one of these two completely undeserving people will be our corporate overlord for the next four years.

If Hillary wins, Republicans need to focus on breaking the Blue Wall in 2020 if they ever want a shot to win.

No bet here. I know that's the case.

I cannot believe how many people are truly excited over one of these 2 clowns.

Here comes the hip new comment of "no matter who wins, we all lose"

Some of you guys are downers. Why even bother voting if they all suck.

Since 1780: omg these candidates suck.

No matter who wins, we all lose.

They don't represent us!!

We need a revolt!!

We got it. This country is going to hell, the United States is dead, something something I don't recognize this country blah blah blah.

Stop whining.

I'm betting some won't or can't vote but still think they have a right to whine about it all the time.

It's so easy.

They'll start coming together with the "everybody sucks", but as soon as somebody baits them into a liberal vs conservative post they get into their corners and sling mud.

The holier than thou act is getting old around here.

Anyways,

Hillary is gonna win.

I think the republicans will manage to keep a majority in the senate, although it will be close.

Trump campaign files Nevada lawsuit claiming people were improperly allowed to vote

Donald Trump's campaign filed a lawsuit in Nevada on Tuesday claiming a Nevada county improperly kept some polling locations open on the last night of early voting.

The suit, filed in state court, claims people who were not in line when polls closed at some Las Vegas locations were able to vote on Friday. Nevada law allows people already waiting when the polls close to cast ballots.

The suit against Clark County is not aimed at votes cast on Tuesday. This type of lawsuit is not unusual in presidential elections.

Multiple reports have said Nevada, a key battleground state, saw a strong early voter turnout among Latinos, who largely favored Trump's rival Hillary Clinton in most surveys leading up to the election.

Trump and allies have claimed they expect to see voting misconduct on Tuesday, but serious irregularities are historically rare.

A spokesman for the Nevada Republican Party said his group is not a party to the lawsuit, but said it's not that unusual.

And so it begins.....

The problem is it isn't illegal to keep the polls open if there's a line.

Didn't he also refer to those voting in Nevada as "a certain group"?

Wrong.

Whine. Whine loudly. Vote, absolutely... and freely acknowledge openly that all of our choices suck, if they do.

I'm thinking Hillary wins with around 310-330 electoral votes.

Popular vote around 52-55%

And lebron gets a triple double tonight

All the republicans had to do was put up anyone other that trump and they would have won be a landslide.

All the democrats had to do was put up anyone other that Clinton and they would have won be a landslide.

I dunno bro.

I think trump would've smoked Sanders, even if the same events with the tapes and sexual assault accusations and such played out.

Sanders tax plan would've turned a few blue States into red states in a heartbeat.

The crazy thing? Clinton's practically adopted his tax plan to pay for the Universal Healthcare and free college ideas.

She just did a better job of fleshing out the details.

Nope, didn't even vote, buddy. The rest of the issues I'm not too familiar with and for president? Didn't like anyone, so.....

P.S. I would have voted for Bernie Sanders if he ran, I liked him.

Except she didn't adopt his tax rate.

Which was the biggest issue of them all.

Bernie was trying to rape people's pockets.

My Final Prediction...

Hillary wins the Presidency.

The Republican establishment, Slanted Media propaganda, and the awakening of a sleeping giant in Hispanic voters was too much for Trump to overcome.

If you wonder how I of all people could say such a thing, ask Swish.

Whoever wins, they need to try and bring the country together. It is sad though that the person becoming the next president is already hated by millions of people.
