There are many, many different factors that effect the outcomes of elections. It is hard to say.


Hillary will certainly not turn out the democrat vote like Obama did, but a lackluster performance may be sufficient.


On the other hand, there are many "closet Trump" supporters who are not reflected in the polls.

There are a few like Jan Brewer, a Trump supporter that hated what Trump said but can't vote for Hillary for that reason. So she is offended but is still willing to vote for that sleazy con-artist. What are we stupid, this logic is putting our finger in the electric outlet thinking we won't get shocked again after getting shocked several times already. WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!

Trumps only hope, is that Clintons voters, dont turn out..
IMO we might all be in for a surprise with one or both of those states that could go Trump.

"Stay tuned" on election day.

People think that's a "joke" or that he is being "sarcastic" but it's not the first time he has made those threats

Dictators don't show all their true colors before getting elected.

When Venezuela was electing Hugo Chavez many dismissed his comments thinking it was all a joke. He was like Trump, aggressive and a bully. Sure sometimes he was funny like when he called Bush the devil(see the similarities?) but what wasn't funny was how he sent most of his opposition to jail, changed the Venezuela's constitution and shut down most of the media.

Quote:
Speaking one day after Bush addressed the same session of the General Assembly, Chávez announced, "The devil came here yesterday, and it smells of sulfur still today, this table that I am now standing in front of." At that point, Chávez made the sign of the cross, positioned his hands as if praying, and looked briefly upwards as if invocation of God. He continued "Yesterday, ladies and gentlemen, from this rostrum, the President of the United States, the gentleman to whom I refer as the devil, came here, talking as if he owned the world."

When you stop trying to convince everyone to vote for Hillary, then more may listen to you carry on about "con artists". It's like listening to a thief tell others why they shouldn't steal.

LOL! Yeah, a highly educated, liberal, 60% nonwhite state like California is going to vote for a clown car candidate running a racial-hatred oriented campaign out of the KKK playbook.

Next you'll tell us that New York and Massachusetts and DC are voting for Trump.

Vermont is next. They were all captivated after Trump said 68 times "Sanders said Hillary has bad judgment". After the access Hollywood video his support had increased to 47% in that state but it went up to 60% after last night.
