It is completely possible that folks will be alone in the voting booth . . . . looking over the selections . . . . Trump (yuck) . . . HRC (I want to puke) . . . ah . . . . Gary Johnson . . . Jill Stein (Green Party - I like the sound of that!) . . .
How many people will there be, who will be be standing there in the voting booth, totally disgusted with it all, angry about the powerlessness they feel about it, are sick of the relentless fear-mongering and non-substantive coverage by the media and the Clinton campaign and debased debates, and decide to throw caution to the wind and vote for anybody but these two odious, deeply loathed and distrusted candidates?
Why not, is right.
But if that does take place, and theres a good chance it will to a large degree, how many have any confidence that we'll get legitimate results? Thing is Trump's bogus preemptive carrying on about voter fraud probably doesn't help our case, and they're sure to use that to also bludgeon the Left with the CIA-invented conversation-stopper that anyone who brings this up is a "conspiracy theorist," just as they did in the Primary.
Probably the DNC continues to send multiple panicked emails everyday about voting, under the guise of phony polls, to try to determine what the probability of voter turnout will be for Her Heinous is. They're not getting the feedback they'd like so are surely securing the vote counters all over the country to show the desired count for Her on Election Day.
Doesn't matter that it will make statisticians look sideways at them (as they did with Ohio in the Dem Primary, where exit polls had Bernie up +2 but lost -12 or something). All that matters is that she is declared Winner, and fast , let the chips fall where they may. RW tactics perfected by everyone form Rove to Murdoch. Get put in front to declare something in your favor, repeat it over and over, and the public follows suit. When the dust settles it will already be calcified, the damage having been done, and no manner of investigation, criticism or questions will have any effect.
I do have a funny feeling that not only will voter turnout be low, but that lots of people are feeling frisky, ala Brexit, and will register their disgust. But the ultimate question remains: will we ever know the truth on how many decided not to vote for these two criminal multi-millionaire clowns?

So the CIA invented it, and the sheep of the DNC/DCCC carried it into the wild?
Either way, when I see or hear it, I tend to give more credence to the one being accused of it. Trump included - especially since I saw what the DNC criminals did in the primary.
Scheming little bastards, the lot. Special place in hell, indeed, but for the menfolk involved too!
Most of the people are Stein and Trump supporters. Nationwide, the total percent for Trump and Stein go between 30 and 40%. Clinton always seems to be at 19% and Johnson at around 10%. The percentages for Trump and Stein seem to vary a lot as new people sign up and vote.
The app only recently started taking more demographic data other than where you were physically. It only asked for age and sex and race (I think.) All you can really see are all the colored dots of the results of all the votes all over the country. Red for Trump, green for Stein, blue for Clinton and yellow for Johnson. Unfortunately, I do not think it is representative of the country. I wish it were. It's probably only representative of those people who cared enough to download this app on their phone and vote. There's no info I can find on how many users there are but it's probably only in the thousands. It's encouraging to see the sea of green on the map though. Makes me feel better, at least temporarily.

The current working assumption appears to be that our Shroedinger's Cat system is still alive. But what if we all suspect it's not, and the real problem is we just can't bring ourselves to open the box?
Truly, it never occurred to me, but it would be interesting to see those particular totals post-election...as with anything else, Public Hillary says one thing and the Wiki-leaked emails say something else, so who knows?
Weather works for frisky, until snow, forecast Wed here. Sigh. I think I may try to hire Boy Scouts to move leaves, Girl Scouts would be better.

How is it that so many people there use it?
That's very interesting. And not sure it's an app I'd put on my phone, that's for damned sure. But still, a fascination, to be sure
Stealth candidate, I think.

I believe that was never confirmed

Just had same thought, envisioned same scenario...
How many people will there be, who will be be standing there in the voting booth, totally disgusted with it all, angry about the powerlessness they feel about it, are sick of the relentless fear-mongering and non-substantive coverage by the media and the Clinton campaign and debased debates, and decide to throw caution to the wind and vote for anybody but these two odious, deeply loathed and distrusted candidates?

This shit is bananas.
A flock of grizzled snowbirds peer at the dawn and wonder:
Why should I vote for the shiksa when I can vote for Stein instead!

Well, there's a thought, huh?

So let us be optimistic and frisky!

Just Voted for Stein!
It's a done deal for me!
Same here!

How could anyone in Florida
affected by Hurricane Matthew NOT vote for Stein, the ONLY candidate speaking about the climate emergency.
The entire east coast of Florida should be solidly behind Stein by now.
The people, united, will never be defeated.
