It's questionable democracy Damien, with reports of voter fraud, over a million dead people registered to vote and people crossing State lines to vote again. The voting system in America is laughable, it really is. Maybe when Trump says the system is rigged, it appears to really be the case.

Well, considering 2.5 million people a year die in the USA, and the electoral rolls are updated yearly, it's to be expected...
btw, the lady in your link voted twice for Trump.

As for you pointing out that a woman voted twice. I know that's why I posted the link. If this woman is voting twice, how many other people are doing it? Vote fraud, is voter fraud.

Re: US Election 2016
im utterly excited about this election. can bill clinton return to the white house or will we be left with one of the most extraordinary election wins ever with a trump win. Either way its a game changer day for the world on tuesday.
Ive been signed off another week from work so ill be up all night watching it if anyone else is!
My prediction? i have a sneaky feeling trump will win. hes closing in the polls and i think a lot of people in the opinion polls arent admitting theyll vote trump. i think its brexit 2 all over again

Well, unless you missed the obvious, Bill Clinton, is married to Hillary Clinton and thus, he will be returning to the White House, as the First Husband, First Gentleman, whatever title is given to the Husband of a female President, it's just unfortunate that if the first female President, is Hillary Clinton, it will be one marred by a bad reputation and serious controversy.
Infact, it's been said Bill will even lend a helping hand to Hillary. Which I'm sure he will. All this assuming they win of course and also assuming Hillary doesn't get Indicted any time soon for her alleged crooked dealings while she was Secretary of State.

Good overview of the state of the election. Clinton ahead but within a polling error of losing.

I have no idea what's going to happen. I don't like calling these things. I don't have the sinking feeling of my side losing which I had a few weeks before Brexit. The betting markets have it around 70-30 as does the FiveThirtyEight projection so I'll go with that.
There are a lot of undecided voters in the early voting, record highs. However there is also an increase in women, the margin is wider so far, and hispanics whilst African American turnout is down. So I guess either:
- Trump wins a Brexit style victory from white men without a college degree turning out in record numbers
- Clinton wins ala the polls from slightly higher turnout from women, less from men, more from latinos, less from African Americans but otherwise matches Obama in 2012
- Clinton wins comfortably from a huge increase in women and hispanic voters. Voters will a college degree go majority democratic for the first time

Re: US Election 2016
I'm starting to think trump might pull it out of the hat too three wives of my friends are voting for trump more because they utterly despise clinton but the fact they are voting for trump rather then not voting puzzles me. I have no doubt trump is the sleazy misogynistic bigot he appears to be and the thought of women voting for him just seems off. Must be the first time in presidential campaigns that both candidates are probably the worst people each party could have representing them it's all very bizarre.

People are grasping at whatever they want to see. The black vote isn't coming out like it did for Obama, more fool them. Suspect, just like shy Tories, there's a hidden Trump vote. People esp. Americans are usually more stupid than you think, and base their vote on all the wrong reasons (i.e. who they hate less). However I got the Brexit vote wrong so hopefully I'm wrong again

There is an element of people looking into this how they want but Nevada especially looks very good for the Democrats because that state is largely done via Early voting.
The rest of it's up in the air. Lots of independent voters and new voters but who those new voters are is unknown. But they may not be 'shy Trump' voters: http://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/04/up...te-voters.html
Heres an article on it: http://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/05/us...T.nav=top-news
Also this is how 'dead people end up voting' http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016...medium=twitter
they die after casting their ballots. R.I.P.
