The Dem crossover vote for Trump today is going to shock the world.


Ooob boy. I hope he has a lot of alcohol ready.
I'm 70% sure he's going to fully snap.
 
So...i'm sure there is a logical, academic explanation for this voter's chosen attire. I'm...sure, it's an interesting tale...it's...I mean,...fuuuuuuuck

Was it ever pointed out before that Bill Mitchell was the name of the president nobody liked in the movie Dave? Because I'm sure that the fictional Bill Mitchell would be seen more favorably compared to this guy.

The number one thing I've learned this election is that Ohio and Michigan hate each other like Kansas and Missouri.

What other states have a major rivalry? Washington and Oregon? Louisiana and Alabama?

WA and OR are like siblings man...They family...Maybe they had a few years of basketball rivalry...nothing serious (Supersonic's vs Blazers). More important they're both with her.

If he is a voter, this is why so many people despise Trump voters. It's citizens like this that cement our view of their ideologies. Simply uncalled for.

Yo CNN, North Strabane PA IS NOT FUCKING PITTSBURGH. People are going to think Pittsburgh is ultraconservative. North Strabane isn't even in Allegheny County, it's in Washington County.

STOP IT.

YOU ASSHOLES.
 
My logic would be that Simon would vote Bernie as he feels he is the most intellectual, Theodore would vote Hillary as she's the most motherly, and Alvin would vote himself because he is, for the lack of a better word, an egomaniac.

And for the record, Jon Arbuckle would vote Hillary to impress the ladies.

This is an interesting point of view and I understand your angle. This is very important so I'll try to be thorough here. Please stop me if you have any questions.

I believe Simon would vote for Hillary because I consider him most likely to have been political for the longest of the three brothers. He is definitively liberal, but I think he is a moderate economic. He agrees with lots of Bernie's ideas, but is not confident in his ability to realize them. Bernie's singular messaging also leaves Simon wanting. Foreign policy is important to Simon and believes we need a world leader, not just a president.

Theodore would vote for Bernie because he thinks he is the "nicest." He likes Bernie's environmentalism and the idea that he is always looking out for the disadvantaged. But Teddy thinks smaller than Simon and doesn't know much about how politics work. Theodore is sort of a classic first-time voter who doesn't know much about how the game is played, he just wants a nice person to be president. This is honest, but problematic.

Alvin doesn't know anything about politics. He thinks both parties are the same and that all politicians are corrupt. He identifies as a libertarian because it's a convenient label for his lazy apolitical POV that only comes out once every for years. He would tell everyone he's voting for Johnson because he thinks its edgy to protest vote, but he wouldn't really know anything about him and wouldn't actually go to vote. He would tell everyone he did, but he would spend November 8th playing Forza.

It might help if we roleplay this? Maybe we'll be able to find a more clear conclusion if we explore the characters in more personally. PM if you want to meet up.

Don is a turtle of science. He wouldn't vote for wifi. He would definitely vote for Hillary.

Mikey probs wouldn't even vote.
I'm with you. I also figured that Raph would be a bernie-buster who eventually came around to Hillary at the last second.

Don't make us look bad, CNN. We ain't Strabane, that's so far south it's basically WV!!
 
+1 for Clinton/Kander/Koster in Missouri. Was in and out in 5 minutes. Would have been shorter but I had to stop and give one of the poll workers a hug. She was my high school Social Studies teacher.
 
No cartoon protagonist would ever vote for Trump. He's literally the old man in the monster costume chasing Scooby and Shaggy. Any hypothesis claiming otherwise betrays a very liberal interpretation of a character.
 
I despise the Patriots so much but it's really hard to believe Belichick wrote that letter. I mean I can see him voting Trump for sure but not doing that

SHINE GET here in Philadelphia!

Anecdotal, but the registration book the poll workers keep on the table has a list of about 50 names on each page, and next to it each person's party affiliation. On the page with my name, there was only 1 Republican.

I plan on just following votecastr all day, making me functionally useless

Someone here had a taskbar widget which would show up to the minute results on HuffPo, RCP, 538 and PEC. Maybe add votecastr to that?

And Theodore would be voting for Stein

I was 272 around 9 AM in my tiny little township. One of the ladies there said the line was out the door at the church when the polls opened at 7 AM. People are mobilized!
