Translation - conservatives are turning out ...

Had to wait 45 minutes (half in rain) to vote in Balt County on the first day of early voting. Seemed like more than half of the people in line were “deplorable”.

Meaningless.

Unless votes are counted multiple times.

It’s like showing results with 7% of precincts reporting vs end of the night, with 90%.

Obama won the state in 2012 by a pretty big margin. These might be Hillary voters.

Not suggesting Trump will win MD, but I AM saying conservatives are turning out - even in states where he has little chance of winning ... It’s the trend that’s important, could be part of a conservative wave

My concern about early voting anywhere is WHO guards the votes and how are we guaranteed they will count towards the total???

I agree with you. The high turnout in MD is a sign of something, and I doubt it’s because of H.

Oh I hope so.

My other hope is blacks won’t be out as they were for Uhbama. That is the tipping point that got him in office. But then, PG is up in turnout (at least at this stage)? Could be a sign blacks are still coming out.

Harford County is not Hillary country. Not by a longshot.

I have the democrat winning: Delaware, RI, Mass, VT, NY, NJ, IL, Oregon, Cal & HI.

There’s also a huge voter turnout in my blue city too but for the bitch...this city ALWAYS votes RAT always!! That’s why I’m kinda worried a tad cause if this city is shattering voter records ...WITH NEW VOTERS and WOMEN..I live in a border town so this means to me that a whole bunch of illegals are voting plus women are voting for Hitlery... I’m praying red cities will offset my city..but I’m worried about all the illegals and imported Muslims kicking their votes in too like Houston,Austin,Dallas and even San Antonio which is sliding into blue territory! Anyone else seeing the same thing in their RAT city??

I live in Hartford county. Very heavily conservation.

If yard signs are any indication it’s about 100 to 0 Trump. With a fair number of Hillary for prison signs.

You think Trump will win Wa state? Don’t see it in your list of dem wins. That would be HUGE.

Harford County is one of the strongest GOP counties in MD. Grew up there and I know it well.

I just received the following wire from my generous Daddy;

Dear Jack,

Don't buy a single vote more than is necessary. I'll be damned if I'm going to pay for a landslide.

John F. Kennedy

I think the goal will be to call a lot of early states for Hillary to suppress voter turnout in the West, which is where the RATS are making their firewall. I won't be surprised by very early calls on a lot of states... then retractions, etc if needed, but it will drive down voter turnout in NV, NM, AZ and CO.
