Turned in my Washington ballot today
Me again | Today | Me

Posted on 11/01/2016 12:06:36 AM PDT by GunHoardingCapitalist

So I sent in my Washington ballot today (vote by mail is bs in my opinion), and wanted to share the good news.

During elections, my family sit down and we discuss the candidates and other stuff and things (Walking Dead reference, +2 points) on the ballot, both of my parents are lifelong democrats, as well as my older brother. I have always been the odd duck conservative in the family. Anyways, It is hard for me to even vote in Washington State since the I-5 corridor pretty much rules the state electorial college votes. After discussing the candidates and their position on policy we mark our own boxes then discuss why we voted that way.

3 lifelong Democrats and myself all voted for Trump, and pretty much a straight conservative ticket (well as close to conservative as the candidates can be).

On another note, I have noticed Hellory is running nonstop commercials in Washington, why spend that much money in a state you are certainly going to win? I pray that Washington state turns conservative this election, if lifelong democrats like my parents vote Trump, how many others are out there as well? For the people, including myself, I pray for a landslide victory, and put America back on the right path.

If Trump wins Washington it will be a stunning night. If it is even close (2% or so)it will be a really fun night

DW and I voted in Oregon today, which is all vote by mail. Filled out the ballots and sealed them -- ready to be delivered tomorrow.

Trump was the clear choice and we did a all Rs. Ballot measures were against any taxes or tax increases.

We do not have a sales tax, but do have legal pot. There was a measure to impose a sales tax on the pot, but I convinced DW that once you let the nose of the mangy camel into your tent the whole beast is right behind. Tax pot today and in 10 years we will have a sales tax on everything.

Wayne DuPree said on his afternoon show yesterday that Trump was within three points in CA.
I did searches and could not find any poll(s) to verify or link.
Still, veteran dem pollster Pat Caddell has remarked that it feels like 1980 all over again. He was the one who had to break the news to Carter about how Reagan was going to win.
He told Harris Faulkner on Sunday and Stuart Varney on Monday that he sees things breaking open now for a similar Trump landslide victory!!!

The California ads are the ones that have totally stumped.

When 538 lists states that are the most pro-Hillary California is first on the list.

Somebody believes that she may under-perform 2012 so badly that it will hurt California Democratic candidates in House races, I guess.

In 1974, a lot of Republican congressmem and senators lost due to watergate. I am hoping the democrats suffer a similar fate this year.

Did you rub it in and laugh out-loud or were you polite and happy?

Where are the emails from Wikileaks?

We got Dickileaks but, Wiki is promising evidence that will bring her to justice?

Puhleeze...

While most people I know in KahhLeeFawn-ee-yuh are voting for Hillary, I have discovered many stealth voters for Trump.

Hell, I found out many husbands have been hoodwinking their wives and will be pulling that lever for Trump.

Good News?

Well, I have met many Democrats who find Hillary detestable and Bill as well.

Like our side, who didn’t want anymore Bush, their side has plenty who are done with the Krintons.

Here’s the thing, they are Democrats but, detest the Krintons so much, they are making a decision on which STD they can live with and Trump seems to managable with a prescription of Valtrex.

Hate to put in those terms but, it seems that is how people feel and I stole that exact line from a Democrat who told me how he feels: “Many of us have to decide which STD we can live with and Hillary will kill us”

Point is: I think her overall vote is reduced by those who just cannot stomach her and have either gone to our side, writing in a candidate or will just stay home.

They understand there is only one coin being tossed at the 50 yard line with Trump on side and Hillary on the other.

There is no other outcome possible. Either Hillary will be President Or Trump will be.

There are more people excited to vote for trump and Hillary has a suppressed audience, who will short her on votes.

I hope the trend I see is fulfilled and Trump becomes President because we are so screwed with Hillary.

2A? Heller was decided wrong.

Partial Birth Abortion? Just need two liberal SCOTUS Judges and that will be law.

Obamacare? Sure it sucks but, Single Payer mandate will be even better. You will love it.

Middle East? If you like what we’ve done with it so far, you are going to love the next phase....

Trump’s message? Hey, we are done with your Feeeeeeelings. Math is hard but, here is the message: We have to do these things because the country must be strong and lead the world in all areas.

Moreover, this country needs a CIC who believes big things and has great confidence in our possibilities.

He will deliver results aligned with our possibilities and we are obligated to achieve our dreams with the changes he will bring.

I think you’ll see a few Obama state flip to Trump and a few surprises in Senate and House races...
