(15,951 posts)It won't be a landslide like Mississippi, Georgia and Alabama were, but I feel HRC will win by mid-double digits. 1) It has a large African-American vote and 2) HRC has already banked a lot of votes from early voting.

(5,065 posts)Nothing like facing the very real likelihood that you will get shipped off to a senseless war against your wishes to help you develop a keen interest in politics and governance.
To be honest - I really wish young people were more committed to voting. Very sad.
