The interesting thing to me is the gap between the predicted results yesterday morning (stay in EU was expected to win by 4%) and the actual results twelve hours later (leave the EU won by 4%).
See yesterday’s article: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3442841/posts “Although the British seemed ready to vote in the Brexit referendum to “Remain” in the European Union . . .”

I expect a similar gap with our November election for Trump. The globalist left has stifled open debate. People still have opinions, but many decent people self-censor and no longer discuss or even admit politically incorrect views in public.

Old Soviet joke, modified by me to fit today's USA:

TV Reporter: What is your opinion on immigration?
Citizen: I agree with the politically correct viewpoint.

TV Reporter: What is your opinion on transgender rights?
Citizen: I agree with the politically correct viewpoint.

TV Reporter: Don't you have any opinions of your own?
Citizen: Yes. But I don't agree with them.
