Arkansas may be really red, but I don’t want even the slightest chance of helping Trump. And I really don’t think you can claim to be voting against Trump unless you vote for someone who could actually beat him. And I think that democracy only works as voting against the worst. The person I think is the best will never be the winner. (With more than two viable candidates, I’m merely voting against more than one.) ---

The horserace BS gets on my nerves. I predict Clinton will win by the very least the margin Obama did in 2012. ---

Trump. And Trump will win. ---

Trump, God help me. ☹ I’m praying that he wins, then gets assassinated and we have his VP as president. ---

I’m voting for Clinton, as I see her as literally the lesser of two evils. ---

Clinton. Only thing that will change that is if, somehow, Sanders gets the break he’s waiting for and gets the nomination (looks snow balls chance in hell likely at this point). Then I’ll vote for Johnson. ---

> [@Oakminster](#): > > I really don’t think so. Trump will carry my state, and a few other reddest of the red, but I’m expecting a landslide for Clinton in the electoral college. Then again, a review of my posting history will show that I’m really bad at predicting elections… Yeah, I don’t think it’s going to be close at all. Clinton will crush Trump like an empty beer can. (I’m pretty bad at prediction as well, but this time I’m pretty sure it’s going to be spot on) ---

> [@Bullitt](#): > > Trump. And Trump will win. Listening to Trump after Comey announced the FBI’s findings of their investigation of Hillary’s emails and server, he is such a ridiculous and obnoxious blowhard, ::rolls eyes::, and at times I hate to think of him as our next president. But as usual it’s a choice of the lesser of two evils. ---

Tough choice. The candidate that makes Sarah Palin look like the President of Mensa or the candidate that makes Richard Nixon look like the Dalai Lama. Looks like Cupcake Wars! Not really, that’s just the only choice that fits. ---

But hopefully Trump doesn’t hear of that. He doesn’t need any encouragement for innuendos or even just outright indirect references to specific body parts. ---
