It is to me as well because I believe both of them are full of it but it's about the lesser of two evils. Trump started that Obama birth certificate shyt and other things. Like I said he has tapped into a segment of America of white men and women who fell they are "loosing the country" and hate Obama and other minorities. That's not enough to win a general election against Bernie or Hillary in my opinion.

I'm in texas so my state is going red regardless so I'm more focused on local elections but in states like ohio and florida it will make a difference.
I think it's a general I'm losing at life sentiment and a candidate with a shady political background and a long history of epitomizing that doesn't bode well especially while saying I'll do the same as before.

Trump will have to curb a bit of his "ten years ago he wouldve been on a stretcher" type of talk to con more people.

It's crazy how much shyt there is on Hillary yet she's the clear and clean candidate and "the attack ads that write themselves" regarding Bernie are basically making socialism a boogie word in a country that loves Medicare, Medicaid and social security.

One of the consequences of the economic crisis in Puerto Rico? Drastically lowered turnout. Reports forecast turnout at just 25,000 for today’s Republican primary, four years after almost 130,000 Puerto Ricans turned out in the 2012 Republican primary to vote overwhelmingly for eventual nominee Mitt Romney. The main reason for the dramatic drop in turnout is an even sharper decrease in polling places, from 3,226 in 2012 to only 110 today, attributed by many to lack of funds. Turnout could also have been lowered by the steady emigration to the mainland.

The biggest voting bloc in Puerto Rico today was prisoners, who will make up about 6,000 of the 25,000 voters and turned in ballots Friday. Despite broad reports of support for Marco Rubio and despite his campaign efforts in the state on Saturday, these numbers make for a truly unpredictable finish. As I noted Tuesday, the most viable path forward for Rubio is winning over half of the votes in Puerto Rico and taking home all 23 delegates. Any surprises could be devastating.

The delegate math simply doesn't favor him erasing her lead.

The bitter truth is the longer he stays in the race the more bitter his supporters become. They see him winning small states and it builds hope he can topple her but really that's more than a long shot.

This is gonna be one of those deals if he takes it to states like California that his supporters will be so upset he loses that they won't vote for Hillary in the general. I was already feeling that way. The only reason I'll vote for her is because if she's not elected the republicans are gonna load up the Supreme Court with conservatives and for the rest of our lives more than likely it'll be a huge imbalance.

I'm telling you as a Sanders supporter the earlier he gets out the easier it will be for his supporters to let it go but the longer he stays the more bitter they'll become.
I predict Bernie will probably stay in till early May at the latest before he begins to get pressure from the Democratic Party to end his campaign so they can get the Party coalesced around Clinton and focused on the general.

Rubio has won over 50% of PR meaning he wins all 23 delegates

Rubio needed to win big today—by carrying a majority of the votes, he’d get all 23 delegates—and one prominent supporter reports he’s done just that. Louis Fortuño, governor from 2008 to 2012, shared his congratulations a few minutes ago:

The folks at Decision Desk HQ, meanwhile, report that just 3.2 percent of the votes have been tallied so far, with Rubio surging out to a huge 78.7 percent lead. (The official tally lags somewhat behind.) But whether Fortuño has seen more complete numbers, or is simply optimistic, it does look like this might finally be the day on which Rubio performs up to expectations.

Can one of you more politically savvy brehs explain something to me. What is the point of primaries ?...like I know it's for the party nomination but why spend millions of dollars to see if you can represent republicans or democrats when you can just be on your own. Like say I was Carson and was like fck the republicans ain't going for me but I still want to be on the percentile ballot, Why not just go out on my own and fukk all this . I know there is some rule or something in place but educate me why.

Real Clear has Clinton only up by 2 points in a head to head match up with Trump.

Anything can happen when the margin is that close this early.

It's pretty easy to come up with scenarios where Trump wins.
yeah, you could also have scenarios where he wins all 50 states too:mjlol:
PA, IA, WI, FL aren't going red in November
