I figured the polls would tighten.  They always do.  The experts who do these polls don't want to be seen as completely wrong when the actual election comes.

I have changed my vote from who I was originally going to vote for, and I got my voting stuff, so... I guess I better vote. 

[Death Blossom]

I gotta do my absentee ballot.

I don't think the corruption is higher than I expected, but then I had pretty pessimistic expectations.  I don't think either candidate will have a huge impact on that, though I expect Clinton will tend to attract more financial corruption while Trump will foster more cronyism.

Polls are kind of all over the place at the moment.  It's narrowed, but not yet by much of a margin (I'd recommend fivethirtyeight.com as a decent poll aggregator/combiner; its editorial body is inevitably somewhat anti-Trump, but they take their statistics very seriously).

Here we go, an October surprise.

The FBI to due NEW investigation into Clinton's email server.

FBI Director, James Comey said that the FBI had, in connection with an “unrelated case,” recently “learned of the existence of emails that appear to be pertinent to the Clinton investigation.”

Now note this, the FBI would not re-open a case unless they had overwhelming evidence of something that could possibly change an outcome.  This will also be seen a judgement case by Comey, so he isn't taking this lightly. 

This is a HUGE event that happened just eleven days before the election, and could have an impact.

I just heard this on the radio and was like, oh crud. 

The markets today dive bombed after the news.

[Darrin]

I voted today, and am licking my envelope right now.

[Death Blossom]

Isn't it funny how Clinton bashed Trump during the last debate about how Trump always whines and claims people are against him when things don't go his way. Isn't she doing the same thing now, now that they reopened the case with her?

[Rainberry]

Isn't it funny how Clinton bashed Trump during the last debate about how Trump always whines and claims people are against him when things don't go his way. Isn't she doing the same thing now, now that they reopened the case with her?

Yes.  Yes she is doing exactly the same thing, and so is her entire political party.  All sides are big whining babies right now. 

If there was a competent Independent running for President who could actually win an election, I would probably be voting for them. 

[Death Blossom]

Yeah. Too bad Gary Johnsons kind of dumb.

[RainySunshine]

Gary Johnson isn't the brightest bulb in the lamp.  That is the nice way of saying it. 

[Death Blossom]

He's not the sharpest knife in the uh.. Place you keep the knives

He's not the sharpest knife in the uh.. Place you keep the knives

Shed.  Not the sharpest knife in the shed.
