Warning: Optimism Ahead
The Conservative Tree House ^ | June 8th, 2016 | Sundance

Posted on 06/08/2016 10:56:31 AM PDT by ground_fog

On February 29th 2016 we made the following prediction.

In 2008 slightly less than 22 million voted in the Republican primary. In 2012 just over 19 million voted in the primary. We predict 29.5 million will vote in the republican primary election:

The 29,528,228 estimation in the 2016 Republican process was massive by comparison to 2008 (21.9 million), and 2012 (19.2 million).

The “smart-set” (specifically ’12 Romney Campaign Mgr. Stuart Stevens) said we were nuts. That would be 10 million more votes than voted in 2012 when the entire GOP electorate was, according to Stuart Stevens, exceptionally motivated. There’s no way you’ll get to 29.5 million primary votes they said….

♦Well, as of 5:30am today: 30,261,999 people voted in the republican primary.

In addition, back in February, we predicted 28,450,721 Democrat primary voters for 2016. (There were 38.1 million Democrat primary votes in 2008)….

♦Well, again as of 5:30am today: there were 28,269,195 Democrat primary voters.

But is it enough to overcome the 10 million illegal alien, domestic pet, and deceased votes Clinton will get. And who knows what’s going on behind the scenes with Obamatons ‘persuading’ electoral college voters (which I have zero doubt is occuring to ensure Clinton is the winner).

20% of Bernie voters said they wont vote for crooked Hillary. I think this election is going to be a landslide where it cant be stolen. Those democrat votes include all the fraud.’’they are so arrogant I dont think they will steal enough.

stunning numbers

Don’t forget the bi-gender who will get to vote twice.

I think they’ll realize around September that winning is impossible. Who knows what the Dems will do then.

Unfortunately I don’t think there is much data that suggests a connection between primary turnout and general election turnout. Primary voters are such a small subset of general election voters I’m not sure this matters much.
