There are so many reasons that young people don't vote. And honestly, I'm kind of glad that they don't. We don't need completely uninformed edit - (or easily manipulated) voters at the polling booths. Even if it takes a couple years for them to get there.

just give the guy scalia's seat
This is a valid point, his approval rating is going to continue on an upward path. Going to be a huge asset in 2020 and beyond.
Obama would be absolutely wasted on the SC.
Youth voter turnout went from absurdly high in 2012 to absurdly low in 2014.

He doesn't want any part of that anyways.
He can still pull a Taft!
Oh, well, hmm.

Yee gads.
The joke is okay now, even slightly funny, but I had to edit so many times to fix tiny stupid mistakes that it is ruined! RUINED!
So... good polls today?
Lotsa fun ones yeah?
Ohio... you disgust me.

The only issue is he seems to be gaining a tolerance to this type of elephant tranquilizer.
Until he says bullshit that throws all of that out the window.
Wait, how does this work? Our last redistricting round was in 2011.
Trump while surrounded by a group of his supporters is not the same
as Trump while surrounded by undecided voters, with Hillary 10 feet away.
I thought you didn't want to verb your username anymore?
Hillary has a literal team of psychologists helping her come up with ways to provoke him.

It's not in question.
Donald Trump will insult a veteran. He will also call a woman fat.

There's also a good chance he knew what the questions were going to be before they were asked. I assume they're smart enough to vet the questions first.
Why is any of this shit even connected to the internet?
Yaaaaaaaaas president Trump!!!

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
I mean, I mostly don't care who specifically is on the Court, but Obama himself is actually a pretty poor choice for obvious reasons: he probably would be required to recuse himself pretty much constantly for stuff he passed, supported, opposed or vetoed.
and went into effect for the 2012, 2014, now 2016, then 2018, and finally 2020. The 2020 census redistricting takes place as the results of 2018 and 2020 elections legislatures and governors draw/approve the "new" maps for 2022, 2024, 2026, 2028 & finally 2030
*Republicans won in 2010 on the less gerrymandered 2000 redistricting maps.
2018 states legislatures and Govs with 4 year terms will be drawing the 2020 maps.
If registered voters show up on election day to find that they've been purged...oh man. Heads will roll.
It looks likely that if this trend continues the democrats will do decent in Maine's CD2 in this election

2020 is the election that determines the people that vote for the 2022 maps. 2022 is with the new maps
And Navada. And New Jersey. California. South Carolina. North Carolina...

Not worried about this to the extent that I think it's going to make Hillary crash in the polls. I'm just saying he would be a lot more competitive heading into the GE if he pulls this kind of act off well. Remains to be seen.
I think every day I'm going to check online to see if my voter registration is still recognized. This, along with some kind of attack, is what makes me "Diablos". FUCK this is so unsettling.
Like it's Trump's fault she asked a stupid question while sitting there plumply.
Youth vote surged in 2008 behind Obama.
Dropped like a rock in 2010.
Surged to record highs in 2012.
Dropped again to record lows in 2014.
It doesn't matter how passionate the Sanders camp seems, how much Sanders encouraged them to get into politics. Because in 2018, those people won't show up.

Kellyanne going full crazy on MSNBC.
"Trump didn't attack her the day she collapsed, so he should get a pass for doing it later."

Chris Matthews interviewing her is just insufferable.
And didn't answer why Trump thinks it's ok to make fun of her collapsing
Al he did was basically sit back and scowl while she rambled. Conway dismissed the AP story the same way Hillary dismissed allegations against Bill. Chris could have made that connection...
Verification is way better online than in-person. Hacking doesn't have to be a big deal because the server can log everything that happened and correct the history afterwards.
Well at least we know the Trump campaign didn't toss her in a closet.

Only two weeks until Colorado mails out ballots.
Much as I enjoy going to a real polling place, I think this will be my first time voting by mail for the Presidential Election. Looks like they're only open from Nov 5-8 in my county.
Also got a look at the sample ballot...
So close.....

I think Kaine would go for it if Clinton wins both 2016 and 2020.
Ehh...Booker has some real baggage in NJ - I kinda think he's basically the black democrat version of Chris Christie - looks good from a distance, ends up being a terrible candidate.
It'll be interesting thing - the bench is sort of wide open right now for the Democrats.
