We all know it is true.

There's an old adage that says, “You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink.”
As presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump spend the tail-end of their campaigns securing votes on the big day, their biggest battle may not be getting voters to stand on their side –– as much as getting voters to literally mark that ballot.
One of the most obvious determining factors to the election's outcome is whether voters bother going to the polls at all –– leaving the fate of the country in the hands of the few who do.
The Nov. 8 election could be easily marked as the most divided among Americans to date –– stirring some passionate views across the nation.
The good news –– if Americans choose to see it that way –– is that this cycle's candidates appear to be notably loved and/or hated to a large degree. The fact that the nation seems so riled up in the daily headlines could be enough to push people to action –– meaning a good turnout at the polls.

Actually, what they are terrified of is that more people than ever, at least in recent times, will vote.
And a big turnout favors Trump.
2. Make sure your Trump friends are registered to vote.
Nigel Farage of "Brexit" fame spoke at a Trump rally a couple nights ago. He had spent the entire afternoon talking with Trumpsters in attendance. He said he was suprised that, of a "couple hundred" with whom he had spoken, "...none had ever voted before." Let me repeat that.
None had ever voted before. These polls of "likely voters" don't come close to hitting the mark, or telling the whole story.
Trump 70
Clinton 22
Swing voters will be decisive if the election is close.
Whoever grabs the lion’s share of them will win in November.
That is so typical of lib-think. Who cares what the turnout is? If people can't be bothered to vote, that's their problem. We are much better off having the NOFOs and LOFOs stay home rather than blindly voting for somebody because "it's her turn," or "we need a woman POTUS," "she deserves it." We want informed voters who understand the threat she poses to our nation -- those we need to get out and vote. If you want a high voter turnout, Vicy O. Misa, move to North Korea.
And, it will be swing voters in battleground states in particular, who decide this election.
If 80% of the voters go for Trump but the machines give a total of 51% for Hillary, how would we know? Don’t depend on the RNC to go to bat for you.
Voter turnout is much too high. Uninformed people are constantly being told they have a moral obligation to vote.
The moral obligation is to inform yourself, not just to show up in a stupor and pull the lever based on the last news story you heard.
GWB was a couple of points ahead in 2000. In what universe would the 20 year old DWI story shift that many votes?
We all know it is true.
Ping to #11.
“It’s not who votes that counts; it’s who counts the votes.”
Thousands of lib-dem-controlled precincts will vote at 100+% of registered voters, as in ‘08 and ‘12. Most all trails and evidence will disappear. And any suits will languish in lib-dem-controlled courts.
Ha! That may be the breakdown of independents. That may even be the raw vote pre-fraud.
The last thing the Democrats want is for all the voters to be enfranchised.
They just want their dead Democrats voting.
Turn out this election will set records.
2. Make sure your Trump friends are registered to vote.
Let me add one more item to that list:
3. On election day make sure each of your friends actually gets out and votes. Call them, drive them to the polls, or make a party out of it. But make sure your Trump friends get out and vote!!!
A great reason for Freepers to plan on observing the election process. Find out what you have to do in your area to be a poll watcher. Then go out and do it. Find a couple of FRiends and head for a liberal precinct to record what they do.
Learn the process ahead of time, and quietly but efficiently observe and gather evidence.
