Detroit has massive amount to poll out, but is only 10% for Clinton in favour. On top, the rural counties should in total have the same amount to poll out like the big cities of that state. | ||

i knew things were going down in the US in the last 2 decades. But even if she wins in the end this is the clearest proof that the good years are over for this world. The supposdely most powerful leading democracy on the planet is in huge parts going for a braindamaged insane racist that represents evrything bad in this world. With other countries leaning right in the eu, brexit and all that crap ... im scared. im truly scared for the future of the world as we know it and humankind as a whole. we learned nothing. | ||

I forgot. Of course, if Hillary loses it can only be due to the mysogonistic nature of the voters... It has been debated to death why a lot of people hate her and there is absolutely no reason to discuss this here any further. As far as Sanders is concerned, he would have probably had a better shot than her simply because he is an ideologue. It is irrelevant if the enactment of his ideas would have had a negative impact (and let's be honest most of them had no chance of ever coming into effect since they would have been blocked till eternity in the US political system). The fact of the matter is that he has deeply routed values he believes in and certain voters would have been very much inclined to vote for him. He would have been more likely to mobilize voters in key states than an opportunitic, establishment blueprint such as Hillary. A somewhat relevant anecdote on the subject: I had the pleasure to spend a year in Vermont where I met a large variety of (very nice btw) people with completely different views. Among them were several deep red conservatives that literally did not even read the ballot when voting. They simply voted for every republican candidate. The only exeception nearly all of them did was voting for Sanders because they valued his integrity and honesty. You can think whatever you want about his ideas, but the fact remains that he has been the most authentic and well-meaning presidential candidate the US has had in a very long time. | ||

CNN's saying 80% of the day-of votes are counted, but a few major Dem counties are way below that-possibly enough to swing the 150K vote edge Trump currently has in the state and then some more besides. | ||
