I still think that the citidiots are to blame.

I'm pissed off too but don't disparage the urbanites. Bad form, yokel.

I didn't know what you were talking about and I googled it. Now I have it in my head too.

Is that for real?

The commercials are on all the damned time. I still don't know what it is we city folks don't get, though.

You're not in Princeton or Englishtown are you?

That's why I asked. I was scratching my head wondering where you'd seen that awful commercial. Thank god I don't watch cable tv, or I'd have to beat myself about the head with a ball peen hammer.

You know, because country bumpkins just don't get it.

North of NYC, here in the more rural counties.

Yeah my cousin lives in New Paltz, I know how you guys drive...

Generally speaking, exit polls are very accurate.
The discrepancies between exit polls and final vote counts are too big in Arizona and New York

Even if a paper ballot, the scanners are only verifiable if there is a hand count, which they won't do.

the first exit polls showed a 52-48 race. Sounds about right.

In NYC we use scanners so there is a paper trail (unless they throw it out - )

I haven't found a district map that does what this one does. Apparently Hillary won HUGE...news to me. I thought she just managed to stay viable, and that with a lot of irregularities in the election. Not what I'd call a landslide victory by any stretch.

She had a 30 point lead.....oops!

In 2008 she was the senator -- yes?

How did Obama not do better in NYC?

Obama was a comparative unknown. I assume that familiarity was a big advantage for Clinton.

We lived there when I was a kid and it tended to be conservative (at least where we lived) but as bad as things got there I would have thought they'd be looking for something better.
