But the negative stories seriously outweighed the positive ones. Reagan was effective in dealing with them, because the media only took their hate so far.

The media hate HW & W, but those guys just didnt fight back very much.

They cant stand Trump, primarily because he punches them in the junk on a daily basis. The media is also embedded with democratic operatives, criminals, and former administration officials who have little to no journalistic integrity in them.

Nothing Trump could say or do would change that. It would simply allow the media to run him over if he backed off.

The media didn’t have to be so overt about their hate for Reagan. There simply wasn’t any competition among them. The landscape is vastly different today. Today they actively compete to see who can hate the most.

Depends on where the high turnout is coming from

Concerned? Every eligible American should vote. If they did I bet California and New York wouldn’t be so blue. The futility is what suppresses the vote total.

Just to be clear, I am against the voter suppression.

Every eligble American should vote only if she or he is well informed. If a person does not know what candidates stand for and the policy implications but still vote based on superficial information (such as “Trump sounds like a mean guy”), that is a bigger risk. In other words, if you don’t care about or you don’t have time to care for politics and policies, not voting is a good alternative.

VA being too close to call was the earliest sign in 2016 that something was up.

Yep!!! Will be interesting to see it this time


Be on the lookout for New Hanover County in NC.

It is the bellwether County in NC. Trump won by about 4% last time. Anything greater than that would be a very good early sign

I don’t think Trump has much chance in Wisconsin but this tweet says more R (45 pct) voted early than D (35 pct).

Trump winning in Wisconsin?[/code]

Guam goes to Biden 56-42%, Hilary got over 70% 4 years ago.

I can feel it coming in the air tonight......hold on

I have seen several positive trends for Trump today, but the betting odds have been shifting towards Biden...I have no clue what tonight is going to look like.

Correct.

And who is it coming from.

Never before voters going for Trump? Democrats coming out in hordes?

US bookies are not allowed to legally do odds on the election. So, this is mainly Euro and Caribbean bettors and who knows what news they get.

Can confirm! I live on the outskirts of Winston-Salem and there was no line this morning when I voted, and no line when I drove by again 3 hours later. Hillary won Forsyth County by 10 points in 2016. We'll see how things go this year.
