Trump's Little Stormtroopers....

Ladewig said:
Not liking Clinton to the point of refusing to vote for her does not necessarily mean that they like Trump enough to vote for him. They might dislike both candidates and vote for neither.

In any case, I am sure this thread will contain a great deal of mocking on the day after the election. I'll be sure to come back to find out which side will be doling out the I-told-you-so's.

I believe many Republicans will vote for a third party candidate than vote for Trump and they can't get themselves to vote for Clinton. My neighbor hates the Clintons. He was big in the Tea party movement. He's a super conservative, we agree on very little, but we get along very well. He saI'd he voted for Hillary this cycle and prays they can kick her out the next time.

I was shocked that he said he was going to vote for Hillary, I wss sure given the distaste he has voiced against her that he would vote Trump or libertarian. He said he thought about it and wanted to, but believes our country and democracy was more important. He felt it was his patriotic duty to make sure Donald Trump never rules this country.

I was flabbergasted, but really felt good about my neighbor

Not voting for either seems to be a very popular position in my circle of friends, both on and off-line. It's certainly my position. I just haven't decided if I'm going to bother to write in a real person or just go with the traditional "Mickey Mouse" yet.
 
Having white guys hang around our polling station might not be the best way to encourage black people to vote for you ...

I get it. I know a few Republicans taking that position. That's one of the reasons I was shocked. But Trump or Clinton is going to be President and god forbid it will be Trump.

Regardless, a lot of black people do like Clinton, and almost everyone despises Trump. He'll get around 5%, in the end.
 
Men "raised by their mothers" are of dubious masculinity and are usually queers. Once again the Trump campaign is moving forward, into the past.

Real men won't vote for a woman?

That is what I was thinking too. Real men weren't raised by their mothers?

Or, more specifically, like Jrrarglblarg says below.

Yes, this is what I heard too. Sigh....

Makes me wonder about Trump's mother.

Is his misogyny nature or nurture?

As mentioned elsewhere, I've poked at the trump campaign to find out more about the campaign watchers scheme.

As an aside, I sent email to both campaigns on the same day. Trump's team has sent me a few random emails, while the Hillary team has bombed me with contribution request.

But here's this one:

Dear Jrrarglblarg

Thank you for your interest in being a poll watcher in the upcoming election. Poll watchers are a crucial component to conducting fair and open elections and the training and credential information in this e-mail is an important part of the process.

First, in order to serve as a poll watcher you will need to complete the Watcher Certification Course. You can find the course here:http://cosos.learnercommunity.com/products/4059/watchers-training-course-public

You will need to create an account, or sign in with your existing Secretary of State account. If creating an account, you will need to fill out all information requested. Where it says "Job Title" you will select "Other" before filling out your employer.

Upon completion of the 30 minute course, you will receive a Certificate. Please SAVE THIS CERTIFICATE AS A PDF, as you will need to present it to your county party chair when seeking to be appointed.

After you have the PDF, please email Jefferson Thomas, Colorado's Political Director, at [email protected]. Please include your: First and Last Name, Best Contact Number, Days and Times you are available to work, as well as your county of residence, along with the PDF sent as an attachment. Jefferson will then connect you with the County Party Chair.

If you have any questions, please reach out to Jefferson at the email above, or on his cell phone at 720-575-3300.

Thank you again for your interest in helping Donald J. Trump become our next President of the United States!

Team Trump

Jefferson R. Thomas
Donald J. Trump for President, Inc.

NOTE: I'm posting this entire email intact, minus my meatspace handle, because it is part of the historical record of the events and activities of the election and I feel this thread needs the information. If mods disagree, I'll redact it down or something, but it wasn't private communications. It was an email list blast.


The training link is to the Colorado Secretary of State's official course, so we should be all doing legal and above - board stuff. I think this course would be one of several required for the bluehairs manning the actual precinct book and boxes, but I barely glanced at it. I guess I should follow through with this class and Trump campaign project, for academic purposes.

I'll keep y'all posted.
 
Nearing the end of the course, I am asked to view scenarios to identify correct and incorrect watcher behaviour. I cannot proceed with the course until I complete this task.

Now let's try some scenarios.

Take a look at the VSPC. See if you can identify the potential watcher violations.

Place your mouse over the three watchers to check your answers.

I'm using an iPad. The software does not appear to realize this. I cannot proceed. I've tried double clicking, triple clicking, press and hold, all the things that Apple does in lieu of mousing an iPad.

I always worry about turnout. It's the nature of the beast. If people think it's going to be a blowout they may not show thinking their vote doesn't matter. I'm somewhat comforted by Clinton's organizational advantage. Early and vote by mail helps with the turnout.

It ain't over till its over so take heart. Keep in mind that there will be another election in only 4 years.

Why are you concerned about the minorities not turning out?

Edging around Anti-semitism? I thought he was a full blown "Jooooooz did 9/11 guy!" with Bush knowing about it beforehand?

Oh, he has been dropping hints about the You Know Whos being behind 9/11 for a long time (I called him on it on this website back in 2008) but he has never out and out stated it in plain language before.
 
Maybe the Democrats should organize their own Poll Watchers to see that nobody is denied the right to vote. Time to fight fire with fire.

Yeah you did.

How else would Trump carry the largest % if he doesn't get most?

I suppose you couldn't figure out I was referring to the republican vote, as the article also states. I'll try to spell things out a little better for you next time.
