For just a second, the difference in reported votes between Cruz and Trump was only a hundred and fifty.

Missouri isn't technically winner-take-all, but these incredibly close elections show how horrible the system is.

The WTA states this cycle weren't even close.

Liberals usually are very vocal about their disatisfaction with their country´s politics and how much they wished their country was more liberal and socialized like Europe and Canada. When they finally get a chance to elect someone who can give them exactly that, they retreat in panic to their political comfort zone. Meh.

I am obviously over generalizing, but I am kind of super pressed and fuming out of my every pore atm.

Rest in Piss, The Revolution.

Aye but there's the rub ain't it. One single person cannot change America and its politics. If we want America to be European liberal, that means change from the bottom up. You want socialist policies? Start with your local and state representatives. Get more socialists elected to Congress. Republicans didn't need a president to completely take control of the political system but liberals look for the magic wand to make everything better.

It's assumed a lot of pollsters changed their methodology after MI to not look like fools.

I understand that. They should know better than to overreact to one outlier, but they're only human. I'm just saying PoliGAF, the wise pundits that we are, should have been more likely to see that it was a mistake.

Then again, I too was Diablosing this morning.

Am I doing the math wrong or is Hillary definitely winning Missouri? Because she should get an extra 20k votes once St. Louis City reports in... right?

Gotta do it in steps considering the opposition. Bernie as POTUS does not unilaterally pass laws even with extended executive power.
