MN has never been a battleground state. It is literally the most reliably democratic voting state in the nation, historically. 1984 election map:

Regarding the "battleground" status of this election, MN was the only state to pick Rubio:

Trump may literally have the least chance in MN versus any other state. Battleground my ass.

I wouldn't say it's the most reliable. The margin of victory has been slim on many occasions, and the Reagan wins were more so the Mondale factor.

I've been following the election forecast on 538, is this thing reasonable/reliable? Anywhere else I should be looking? It seems like sanity is prevailing and Hilary has taken a strong lead anyway.

Amazing

I feel bad for Vermin Supreme. He put a lot of legitimate heart and effort into elevating political theater as a comedy form, and then Trump comes in as the Carrot Top of the art and ruins it for everyone by prancing merrily onto the national stage.

It's going to be decades before joke candidates can have themselves taken not-seriously again.

New state poll shows why Kaine was a smart pick.

Seeing Clinton up in those red states makes me happy. Even if she doesn't win, it's going to result in Trump having to spend money there.

Hopefully these polls are under sampling Latinos.

Well to be fair, Johnson's competition for the Libertarian candidacy included a guy named Vermin Supreme, and a guy wanted for questioning in several South American murders.

I thought you were joking when you said this, but uh....

Vermin Love Supreme is an American performance artist and activist who has run as a candidate in various local, state, and national elections in the United States. Supreme is known for wearing a boot as a hat and carrying a large toothbrush, and has said that if elected President of the United States, he will pass a law requiring people to brush their teeth. He has campaigned on a platform of zombie apocalypse awareness and time travel research, and promised a free pony for every American.

Wow.

The RNC was the exact opposite - hate, fear. That kind of platform never sells.

Really? Because it sure as hell worked before with great results.

Sam Bee did a segment on Johnson's competition in the Libertarian Party. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Psp0A-zJgU&sns=em

Down with the evil party! Down with the evil party! Down with the evil party!

I mean what more is there to say?

This gives me hope that while america is a racist shitpot. It's not as racist of a shitpot It seemed to be earlier on.

Kind of late, but I wanted to step in on this. These racist-ass Trump supporters aren't going anywhere after this election, and they didn't just show up right now.

When you look at how many of these people end up actually voting for Trump on election day, and how many millions of people that is going to be, I want you to think about what they're going to do after. They're going to go back into the world, and they're going to be somebody's teacher, or somebody's boss, or a cop, or a banker. They didn't grow out of the earth fully formed 12 months ago. They live their lives, and they have the same views on Wednesday as they did on election Tuesday.

Now y'all think about that shit the next time you tell some minority they're imagining what's happening to them, and the next time you downplay how unfair the outcomes somehow mysteriously turn out to be for certain people in this country.

Agreed. The best we can hope for is a 2 party system that is actually a 2 party system. Not one that must defend basic human rights and morality and another one that is, what is essentially the DC Injustice League of Super Villains™

Maybe then we can start weeding out some of the more prolific evil assholes from our government while their symbol of hatred (the GOP) burns to the ground.

EDIT: Posted without me finishing wth.

Gah, I forgot the rest of my post anyways.

Some times the best jokes are just simple reality
