They should just make election day a national holiday.

Trump hasn't done anything as horrible as all the things Hillary did that the FBI hasn't been able to prove in over a year after spending millions of dollars and tens of thousands of man-hours...

Why doesn't a third party candidate get a fair shot at this? Everyone wants to complain about how bad the two main candidates are, but no one is willing to vote third party and truly do something about it

Well what do you mean? 100,000,000 votes in this election, probably about 10M total votes will go to someone other than Trump / Clinton. What can you reasonably expect without real funding?

Hillary gave another green screen rally today.

There is something seriously odd going on with her. I don't care what anyone says. This is not the first time she has staged a rally.

Trump is probably about as close to a 3rd party guy that any of us will ever see get this close to the presidency.

I am voting 3rd party. The two party system is broke. People need to wake up. Dems and Republicans are not working for the people.

Makes me wonder what might have happened if Ross Perot never dropped out back in 92. He was leading both Bush and Clinton when he dropped out at the time ( I think ) he later rejoined in October but it was way too late.

What's a green screen rally?

He had that nut case VP that liked to say gridlock

He was fine to run as 3rd party, but Rep did not want to let him go.

Another day for employers to pay employees for not working?

Yes. There's no reason that a day considered one of the most important days of said year shouldn't be a holiday

They have given up on Trump. They are in serious jeopardy of losing a good amount of Senate seats now so that is where they will focus until election day.

The two main party voters are afraid to vote for a 3rd party candidate because if the other party doesn't vote that way, they will lose the election.

No. Tons of people vote early anyway, no need to make a national holiday and pay federal/state workers for another day off.

Happy Birthday Hillary. I think she has some fun gifts coming out today in the form of emails and videos.

NeedChapmans · 10-26-2016, 08:38 AM

Polls look better today, if Trump can keep on message here for the last 2 weeks and just let Wiki, O'Keefe and the people do their thing; he may actually have a decent shot in 2 weeks.

There will be some other audio tape or "scandal" that Trump did in 1970 that will come out soon. It's like clockwork when he takes a lead in the polls.
