    While this is a large part of it, a significant thing I think is that you get a lot more enthusiasm voting for something than against something. If she was campaigning for things I didn’t hear it above the constant “orange shit is an orange shit”.

    A number of terrorist bomb threats to predominantly democratic polling locations in swing states and other fuckery may have also played a role.

            False choice dilemma.

            Democrats need to swallow their pride and arrogance and admit to themselves that they shouldn’t be going solo against the republicans.

            Do away with First Past The Post voting in blue states and let more players onto the field. This fight is bigger then the democratic party.
