Being from Michigan, I had a certain confidence the week before. I was proud to have talked a lot of conservatives off the edge, getting them to see Trump as a good candidate; also persuading a few non voters in the past to get out and vote for him. I told people not to listen to the exit polls, and don't watch returns until 10 PM Eastern at the earliest, but that Trump was going to win, and I was certain.

I the based my confidence on a few things. First, all the various Clintons and their surrogates were suddenly campaigning in the Midwest a lot. The Bamster would never be campaigning if it weren't in the bag. Second, the Wikileaks revelations about how so many polls were skewing their samples to make propaganda for Hillary. Third, the repressed anger in America, particularly the Midwest was very real.

I have to admit, I didn't see Wisconsin happening, nor how close Minnesota would be.

I’m here every day and I didn’t know about the wikileaks dump regarding skewing the polls.

How did i miss that.

It’s a wonder Jim lets me stay on the board :)
