I don't care what you say...anyone that votes for someone that is actively being investigated by the FBI is a FOOL. At least vote for Gary Johnson....

We'll see soon enough.

I don't go by the so-called reported MSM oversampled dem polls and MSM election maps as they're doctored imo.

This is where I always wonder why people say this race is "close". He would really have to pull off a miracle to win at this point. He may be close in terms of the popular vote perhaps, but it doesn't matter one bit. I still believe he will lose and by a wide margin electorally.

Well, Christie was elected with his promises to fix that. He's done some good and a lot of bad. It's sad that the Democrats in NJ are starting to sound more reasonable on taxes again.

When they sample more dems than repubs the result = doctored.
I refuse to dismiss any and all polls simply because they may appear on the surface to be "slanted". Most are conducted in a highly scientific manner. They aren't always accurate, which is why places like 538 and RCP use averages of dozens of polls to create a more complete picture. To say that they are "doctored" or "biased" are just things people who don't understand the math and science behind it claim.

The media shoulders a lot of blame for misleading people( especially the gullible ones) by reporting national popularity poll numbers when THAT ISNT HOW THE ELECTION IS DECIDED.

It's quite a disservice.

EXACTLY! Basic math and science...has Trump dumbed down society so much that we can't even agree on MATH anymore?! This is why I always find it pretty funny when the "skewed polls"/"rigged election" chatter starts. Trump and his people legitimately think that trained statisticians are "trying to pull a fooly-wang with all them fancy math terms and figures and stuff". Lol
