Sooo who was that guy who allegedly tried to shoot Trump yesterday? Was he want-to-be-famous-crazy or need-to-save-my-country-crazy? Or was it a false alarm?

I mean, the electoral college numbers were made from Representatives + Senators. Reps are population proportional, Senators are guaranteed 2/state.

This guarantees votes in more populous states will be worth proportionally less.


What shit is that? Why don't they just count the popular votes, add them up state by state and make whoever has more people voting for them the POTUS? That's insane.

OMG, because that isn't how we elected the commander and chief. The President isn't supposed to be elected by popular vote because it would give to much power to the urban centers while removing power from the less populated states. We are a collection of tiny governments overseen by one larger, but limited government.


Ah yes, I remember that argument. 'The crisis of democracy', when the wrong people get to vote.

Are you talking about the guy who was just lifting a sign? Then almost got strangled to death by Trump fans?

False alarm. Was holding a Republicans Against Trump sign. Someone called that a gun.

I think it looks good so far, from what I can gather. I think so.

He was a protester holding a "Republicans against Trump" sign. Someone else yelled gun. I don't think that was yesterday, though, so maybe something happened I missed.

We are here to stay, Donald Trump all the way. From what we see so far, there's hope.

What happened to your post-debate loss of faith?

What has he done since the debates to restore your shattered faith in his ability to act effectively as an administrator?


I think he's bad. My impressions after the debated never went away and I'm very disappointed with him. That said, imo Hillary is worse. For me it went Trump being a 6 and Hillary a 2, to Trump being a 3-4 and Hillary being a 2.5-3.

Seems this is the first election many have followed. The numbers are always all over the place and constantly switching at this point. Percent in doesn't matter as much as which counties have reported.

Can anyone whose election tracker is actually working at a county level say if Miami-Dade has even started reporting yet?

Ah yes, I remember that argument. 'The crisis of democracy', when the wrong people get to vote.

There are likely thousands of articles and papers written on the subject. But the long and short of it is that a straight popular vote would disenfranchise a lot of the states. The president is an important role in the government, but gets far to much attention considering how powerful the legislature is(elected by pure popular vote). In reality, state governments have more impact on the general population.

Trump has helped deeply unpopular Hillary increase turnout in important areas. He's lost, like he was probably always going to, but now what about the Senate? That's what I care about. Need to hold on in FL,GA, MO, NC, NH.

PA, WI, IL prob lost. IL for sure.

And there are some important house races.

from 538 feed:
If you’re puzzling at the results in Virginia — more than a fifth of precincts are reporting and Trump leads by more than 10 points — don’t expect an upset there just yet. There’s still a ton of the vote left to report in Northern Virginia, specifically the heavily Democratic Washington D.C. suburbs.


I guess I'm not the only one freaking out about Virginia

False alarm. Was holding a Republicans Against Trump sign. Someone called that a gun.
