Has there been another election in history that was decided two years beforehand?

Re: Has there been another election in history that was decided two years beforeh...

How is it possible there is a 108% of the vote.

I don't think math is for you.

This poster is simply adding all the leads over the 18 some candidates--in which Bush is +1.
48 divided by 18 is less than 3--within the margin of error.
RCP .
 
Re: Has there been another election in history that was decided two years beforeh...


You were already clear last post. This post of yours doesn't change any of the facts about being very early in the primary and election process and much is yet to happen and that it's far to early to predict much of anything with any accuracy.
 
Re: Has there been another election in history that was decided two years beforeh...


Your understanding of these numbers is comically inaccurate. The article doesn't remotely say that. I cannot even conceive of the bizarre methodology you used to come up with this figure.

wanna BET? Hillary THOUGHT that she was anointed 8 years ago, too, and some nobody beat her out, without even trying. Now she's 6 years older, with a lot more baggage hanging off of her. We might even get lucky and she (or bill) will catch cancer.
 
Yes, Hillary looks like a lock.

But during the next nine months a website will appear that will galvanize over 50% of the American voters, most of whom normally don't participate, and that website will affect the political platforms of every candidate.

The website's perspective will appeal to courage and intelligence and will, by comparison, make a mockery of wingish candidate perspectives .. thus forcing many candidates into changing policy course to be considered electable.

In the end, the candidate that comes the closest to matching the political policies and personality type recommended by this website will win by a landslide.

That is not likely to be Hillary .. even though it could be.

You heard it here first.
 

I've had horoscopes give more specifics than that.

When you include the dead, which vote democrat as a bloc, you get to at least 108%. I'd say he's being conservative.

Stopping the Democrats abuse of Voter Fraud will be essential in 2016 and to the salvation of America.

I love people who think voter fraud is some massive, election-changing conspiracy. (and only Democrats do it, of course!)
 

Because there is only one prez but hundreds in congress. Diffusion of power = almost all americans know who the president is but less than half can name a senator or supreme court justice

He's a celebrity with nukes

just another old white guy like bernie sanders isn't going to beat her out. Not the same thing

And really, hoping for a bland centrist like hillary to die is low, even for a republican
 
It's not a matter of if Hillary becomes president, but what her first act as President will be.
Characteristically, she's acting as if she already is president. Must be nice, not having to go through something so bourgeois as an election to become president anymore.

She has a 48 percent lead over ALL her republican challengers COMBINED. A FORTY EIGHT PERCENT LEAD!

To put that in perspective, Obama had about a five percent lead in October 2012.
Well, to put THAT in perspective, Hillary had a similarly significant lead over Obama at one point prior to the 2008 election.

Poll: Clinton establishes sizeable lead over Obama

Gotta love the "knowledge" that comes out of polls.

So in the interest of knowledge, has any other US presidential election been decided two years beforehand, like the 2016 election will be?
"In the interest of knowledge?" You're kidding, right?
 
Re: Has there been another election in history that was decided two years beforeh...


You can post the link to that article as many times as you want, but it's not going to magically start saying what you want it to.

Hillary has 78 percent of the vote right now. EVERY SINGLE REPUBLICAN combined has 30 percent.

Nowhere in that article does it say this.
 
Re: Has there been another election in history that was decided two years beforeh...

i'm not even going to look up a reputable study to counter this absurd claim:

Voter Fraud Literally Less Likely Than Being Hit By Lightning | Mother Jones

And your statement is exactly what we would expect from someone deliberately using voter fraud.

Just like we would expect a drug cartel lawyer to scoff at the idea that drugs are harmful, or a serial rapist to sneer that rape doesn't ruins lives.

But it is a huge problem, as has been documented in many cases and convictions:

Don't Believe Voter Fraud Happens? Here's Some Examples


Here's another documented case:

Here is an investigative TV new journalism youtube video which covers extensive immigrant voting:

Still think it doesn't happen?

Re: Has there been another election in history that was decided two years beforeh...

At least she is corrupt enough and untrustworthy enough to be president. Add a level of fame not achieved by any opponent and that's a pretty strong case. It's all good. Looks like we will maintain the critical gridlock we've worked so hard to achieve. Sounds about right to me.
 
Re: Has there been another election in history that was decided two years beforeh...


Nice try...

You're not really a Libertarian, you're a Leftie Shill here to convince Libertarians that there is no reason to show up at the polls to vote against one of the most corrupt, deceptive and destructive politicians in American History.

I don't want gridlock, as a Libertarian, I want the TEA Patriots, and those among the class Republican Party with some sense, to begin to Dismantle the Bloated, Self-Serving, Unsustainable, Ridiculous Spending Government we've allowed to Fester and Cancerous Grow!

FDR.

1936, 1940 and 1944.
 
If we simply stop a portion of the Illegal Immigrant Voter Fraud, then the 2016 Election is a toss-up, close election, which could go any direction.

If we could stop ALL Illegal Immigrant Voter Fraud, the Democrats wouldn't stand a chance in hell.

Arguably, one might also add in most of the 2-term presidencies.



That's probably true.

One of the guys I work with said of the Obama second term election that he screwed it up pretty bad so far.

He then went on to say that we should give him a chance to fix it.

I thought it was like giving a wife beater a second chance with the same victim, but there you are.
 

Greetings, Kurmugeon. :2wave:

Not a snowballs chance that this ever happen, but why hasn't a Federal law been written long ago that you must have valid ID to vote, at least in the Presidential election years? This wouldn't interfere with State laws, since they could still do what they want in their State midterm elections. Not that it would help much, since IDs seem easy to get, but it would at least create a step that must be followed, since the POTUS is the POTUS in all 50 States! We've been arguing about this for years - why hasn't it been done? They sure didn't have a problem making Obamacare mandatory in all 50 States, even though it was pushed through without a single Republican vote! Why hasn't that been ruled discriminatory against half the populous? *rhetorical question, since I know the answer* :thumbdown:
 

you might have an argument if the constitution didn't explicitly ban poll taxes in federal elections (and unless the ID is free, it's ... a poll tax)
 
you might have an argument if the constitution didn't explicitly ban poll taxes in federal elections (and unless the ID is free, it's ... a poll tax)

This is a Red Herring Argument, and you darn well know it.

Voter IDs can, should, and have been provided by the State Governments for Free.

You're merely defending law breaking because it brings you power and money.

I'll give the Left credit for one thing, when it comes to Power-Lust and Greed, they are very consistent.
