I certainly agree regarding the electoral college system.Between gerrymandering and use of the electoral college system, the candidate with the least votes can win!

There's been a few photos on Twitter, zooming in on that ... and yeah, no obvious signs of injury.slightly off topic ,only saw the highlights so a question given that was a live broadcast with a split screen showing a close up of trump, i was looking at his right ear i couldn't see any mark/hole /nick left by a bullet ,that ear looked perfect to me ,am i right ?
kind of thing i thought trump would be showing off if it had been hit ?
I made a nice sum out of backing Trump V Clinton, having been in some of the US back in 2016, it became very clear very quickly that the message we were getting from the East Coast media was not reflective of much of the broader US.Looking at it from afar, it's hard to undertand how close it is still.
I understand the near 50/50 support as much as I undertand that SF/DUP still get 50% of the vote in NI.
It's like it has nothing to do with Country at all but dislike of one over the other. Policies don't seem to matter to too many.
The race/gender voting pattern by party is just mad
Yes it's like here but to a far greater extent. The fringes of both parties are nuts and noisy.Firstly, 35%-40% of people will vote Republican or Democrat, regardless of the candidate. It's the same here (FF and FG have a constant support base), despite the madness, the Tories still got millions of votes in the UK. Inertia, habit, fear of change etc, pre-conceptions, for whatever reason, it happens. So it is that key 25% of undecided that is the main focus.
