Trump at 44% now - hopefully we can win this one ...

[DoughtyOne]

What surge in Democrat electoral success?

They lost special election after special election. They won one or two, and that’s supposed to be the total record?

LOL

Except for Moore, they’ve had a long string of bad luck.

[zeestephen]

Most people don’t realize that Mitt Romney got more votes in Wisconsin than Trump got - and Mitt lost the state.

[cableguymn]

They even lost the recount in VA and 90% of the time, they win those..

even the coin toss went the wrong way for them.

[Conserv]

I think some blacks in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania voted for Trump simply by staying home.

That’s the way they wanted to do it.... and that’s just fine by me.

[BradyLS]

What, they couldn’t get HRC down there to make the toss. I hear she’s really good at them, having won six in a row in Iowa.

[Professional]

Yup, Democrats winning everywhere!!!!!!

..../.....s....

[stars & stripes forever]

His predecessor was Republican. That gives some hope.

[Trump20162020]

It doesn't "test" anything. These pundits and political analysts need to stop this nonsense.

It's like when they said the Scott Walker recall election in June 2012 was a "national bellwether," and that Walker winning was good news for Mitt Romney. Obviously that was a load of bologna.

[Vendome]

Well, they’ve won 10% of them!

[Wally_Kalbacken]

That illustrates the problem when your facing a candidate that is a great activator, that generates turnout like Obama did.

In Wisconsin in the fall the good news is that Walker is on the ballot, and in a different manner he generates GOP turnout. How that will play for the GOP candidate running against the awful Tammy Baldwin, I dunno. I am hoping she is retired.

[DoodleBob]

Uh huh...

[DoughtyOne]

LOL

Good one...

[DoughtyOne]

LOL

Now we’re talkin’.

[snarkytart]

you post that as if Romney got thousands more when he got 2K more than DJT which is within the recount margin, which means it’s meaningless and not worth mentioning.

Trump got 47% of the vote and Romney 45%.

Trump had to deal with 3.58% of the vote going for the libertarian with 100K votes. In 2012 the closest candidate to Obama and Romney only got 20K votes.

[zeestephen]

The only reason Trump won Wisconsin is because Hillary was overconfident and failed to get her core Black and Hispanic voters to the polls.

Romney did not have the same luck with Obama.

Your analysis of the Libertarian vote does not apply to the 2016 election.

In 2016, the Libertarian candidate for president publicly campaigned for Open Borders and Amnesty.

In 2016, the Libertarian candidate for vice president publicly stated he would vote for Hillary Clinton if he was not on the Libertarian ticket.

Trump would have been lucky to get 50% of the Libertarian vote in 2016.

On the other hand, the always hard left Green Party had record turnout in Wisconsin in 2016, and their 31,000 votes would have won the state for Clinton.

If some visionary had advised the Green Party that Trump would win the election, 90% of them would have switched their vote to Clinton.

DemocRATS will NEVER leave elections in the hands of the voters again, after Trump won !

STEALING ELECTIONS WITH COMPUTERS and Technology Cybercrimes, watch Bloomberg's Digital Defense November 3, 2016 (19:40).

I'LL NEVER TRUST ANOTHER COMPUTER COUNTED ELECTION AGAIN !

Election Fraud Against Moore Confirmed, Shills BTFO ( 24:29 )

Things have changed!

Bennie Smith, a Memphis computer programmer, discovered HOW this is done through a

" ... a GEMS tabulator—for Global Election Management System—which is a personal computer installed with Diebold software that sits in a windowless room in the county’s election headquarters.
The tabulator is the brains of the system.
It monitors the voting machines, sorts out which machines have delivered data and which haven’t, and tallies the results.
As voting machines check in and their votes are included in the official count, each machine’s status turns green on the GEMS master panel.
A red light means the upload has failed.

At the end of Memphis’s election night in October 2015, there was no indication from the technician running Shelby County’s GEMS tabulator that any voting machine hadn’t checked in or that any votes had gone missing, according to election commission e-mails obtained by Bloomberg Businessweek.
Yet as county technicians followed up on the evidence from Smith’s poll-tape photo, they discovered more votes that never made it into the election night count, all from precincts with large concentrations of black voters. ... "

Diebold Election Systems changed its name in 2006 to Premier Election Solutions.
Bloomberg's article titled How to Protect Against Election Day Hacking gives more proof of this by Memphis computer programmer Bennie Smith.

"... The method Smith used to catch the problem should be a playbook for any candidate, party or concerned citizen worried about the accurate tallying of their votes:
Smith snapped some pictures of printed voting tallies (known as poll tapes) at a high-turnout polling location and then compared the results there to the electronic tabulations.
This is a very good, if labor-intensive, way to check to ensure that votes are being counted correctly.

Smith has created a proof-of-concept program called Fraction Magic, showing how corrupt officials could tamper with GEMS to manipulate election outcomes.

Didn’t Wisconsin put in some kind of voter ID to reduce fraud as well ?

[Vigilanteman]

Local elections are based mostly on local issues and personalities. It isn't rocket science.

Our county row offices were dominated by Democrats since the Eisenhower administration closed. The disgust with ObaMao was so high by the 2011 elections that the Republicans swept them all.

They are now back to roughly the same 60-40 split which reflects party registration in the country. Westmoreland County is very old school Democrat . . . Trump carried it by more than Pennsylvania as a whole.

Thanks for the post. Nice job.
