i guess those small state votes were not reliable indicators of how the rest of the country would vote.
why don't we have a national primary day?! this is so fucked up. even voting tomorrow i feel as if my decision has already been dictated to me.
but I'm voting for #Warren2020, with my heart and my conviction that she is the best person for the job.

(14,565 posts)There are upsets in politics too, you know. That would be widely known if we had elections every weekend instead of one day every two years.
Hillary was a mild favorite in the 60-70% range. I emphasized it was the equivalent of a 4.5 point favorite in a football game. They lose all the time.
Somehow anything above 50 was viewed as a certainty.
Minus James Comey, Hillary would have been upwards of 75-80. That is an entirely different threshold of probability.
