I'm not quite sure how to interpret that. Mexicans? Illegal voting? Strong support for Trump?

There are millions upon millions of voting-eligible people who choose not to partake in politics (i.e. vote) for a number of reasons. The main goal of Trump's election strategy was to tap into that chunk of the electorate and motivate them to the polls.

I'd rather see a lower number.....this is concerning for MAGA


Monster vote. Where have you been? These are people that are supposed to be coming out of the woodwork that have never voted before.

I've been a little skeptical but the signs are positive.

1. Polarizing candidates bring people out of the wood works. It's amazing how two terrible candidates have caused a wave of vehement support for both. People are motivated by hate and disgust.

2. Social media. Think of the MILLIONS of people in this country that primary consume political news from Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat, etc. Social media has made politics digestible to dumb fricks without a clue.

2012 had 122,045,725 votes.


I've been thinking that the ceiling for HRC was Obama '12 type numbers. That Drudge number would probably mean that you glorious bastards did it.

I was at the election offices today, and they had these pens that had a fake flower on it. Some of the flowers were red, and some were blue. I was in line, and the guy at the front went to grab a pen to fill out his request for a replacement ballot, and he grabbed one with a blue flower on it. He started to walk over to his seat to fill out his form, but turned around and put the pen back and picked out one with a red flower on it and said, "Gotta Make America Great Again". Everyone laughed, but the next 4 people in front of me all purposely grabbed pens with red flowers on them. One person was halfway through filling out her form and she got up and swapped pens for a red one. We laughed at that, too. I kept waiting for someone who worked there to come tell us to get the hell out.

Me? I grabbed a MAGA pen, too. Three of the people in front of me were minorities. One appeared Latino, and two were Asian, FWIW...
