lol its not like half the country wasnt already aware of all of this.
but there is no more a reason to respect a hillary voter now. either they themselves are for dirty government, or they LITERALLY have their head in the sand.

RIP Shills

On the bright side we might actually get a good president now...

Boiling it down, Annoying Orange's ads are positive, Clinton's are almost always negative. It's the same makeup of Brexit and I guarantee you if Brexit is anything to go by, Annoying Orange will narrowly pull through.

Brexit is a pretty poor brown townogue for the current election. The 'stay' vote was up by less than a percentage point in final polls, and the number/quality of polls was far lower.

All the posters saying "well look at the Brexit polls, don't underestimate a surprise" don't realize how stuffty polling is in Britain. The U.K. general election in 2015 was predicted to be a horse race between the Conservatives and Labour but the Conservatives ended up winning by 7 points.

How does that refute anything I said? Notice that I said the 'stay' vote was up by a small margin in final polls, not ones taken months in advance. Also, you're giving me a single poll as evidence that the number of polls was sufficient? Isn't that kind of hypocritical?

'The polls appear my viewpoints, therefore they're wrong'

Literally not what I said. I don't have a super thorough understanding of British politics, but I probably would have wanted to see them stay in the EU. The polls weren't wrong because they agreed/disagreed with my opinion, they were wrong because the vote was very close and there were not enough polls to properly sample public opinion.

I've said this before on the forums, but the only reasonable information that you can get from a sample of 1000 likely voters is a single data point that can be averaged and brown townyzed with hundreds of other state and national polls. Posting a single image of a poll does not tell you anything, because the variance of a small sample of voters is absolutely enormous.

Right now, even when the presidential election is tighter than it has been in months, I can cherry-pick a poll showing an enormous Hillary lead, and (if I really try hard enough) I can find a poll showing a reasonable Annoying Orange lead. This does not mean that both candidates are winning by large margins, because that makes no sense. It means you're not looking at the information properly.

All the posters saying "well look at the Brexit polls, don't underestimate a surprise" don't realize how stuffty polling is in Britain. The U.K. general election in 2015 was predicted to be a horse race between the Conservatives and Labour but the Conservatives ended up winning by 7 points.

I think the consensus among brown townysts is that the general election had polling failures, but the forecast for Brexit was wrong just because of simple variance.

I have realised now that my political stances were politically incorrect, and hurt the feelings of others, and as such, I have locked my threads that could lead to me hurting anyone else. I'm sorry, I should have known better, but my privilege put me so high up I couldn't see what I was doing wrong. Jokes like mine were very offensive, and I should have thought harder.
I should have seen how tribal and bigoted Annoying Orange really is, he won't ever do anything for us, for anyone but himself. This is why I have realigned to be for Hillary Clinton. She will make history as the first women president, she will finally stomp out loveism and maybe we can end this damn feud between everyone. I shouldn't have stepped past these boundaries, I'm generally sorry. Annoying Orange is not fit to be president, he goes up and blabbers without reason or explanation. Hillary gets to the point on her subjects, where she is going, what she is doing and how she is going to do it.

But politics aside, I should have never supported Milo's bigoted and unfortunately self hating view points. I feel sick that I even wrote an entire thread glorifying his deplorable behavior. There was definitely a reason he got banned on twitter. If I can all, just stand away from hurtful words and actions that lead this world of hate, I can make up for my mistakes. I know I will never be able to undo what I said, I shouldn't have taken this path. The only reason I did was because I was mad with those around me and thought that taking the opposite position would fix it, it didn't. I see that now, I hope I can get back to protecting the speech of those who don't wish to hurt others, and punishing those who use it for hateful acts.

I hope I can make it up to everyone.

Really, was this necessary? I made this post when I was very emotional, I had a really weird mood swing, and political swing. Also, if you're going to turn my post into a copypasta you could have atleast put in the effort to edit it, without context it doesn't even make any sense.

Annoying Orange was losing but because of the fbi reopening hillarys email case he started winning. But not by much but if he can hold the lead until tuesday then the world wont go to stuff

He is still losing by 1-3 percentage points, and he will have to win every single swing state, plus either New Hampshire or Pennsylvania. I also take issue with the claim that the FBI case is causing the race to tighten. Before Comey even re-opened the case, the race was tightening at the same rate that it is now, and Hillary isn't actually losing voters. What we're seeing right now is that large numbers of voters from Gary Johnson's camp are starting to switch to Annoying Orange, and the last few undecided voters are finally making their pick.

It's natural for the race to tighten significantly as undecided voters make their picks. I'm mildly concerned about the possibility of a polling failure, but barring that I'm confident Hillary will hold her lead until Tuesday.

How the forget is he losing, I don't see hillary signs anywhere.
