Same thing with the Democrat winning the California election. After that, the only ones who will be able to afford to live here are the illegal immigrants with eager help from our government.

Its just a guess but I feel like Beto will come out on top

People seem excited about him and Ted Cruz is a total turd. 2016 should have showed people how accurate polling data is compared to actual votes on election day

Again, fuck California.

The whole state is just beyond repair, regardless of where your policies lie.

This. He's going to win, that much is a given - he's never trailed O'Rourke in the polls and is currently sitting on a pretty comfy lead. That said, there's no way he breaks 20 points over - not unless there is a massive, systemic error in the polls. Hell, it would be surprising (though far from impossible) to see him get a double digit win.

I sure as hell didn't vote for him, he is the worst.

I don't think Beto will win though, but hopefully his momentum will help out in some of the other races, maybe we will have some surprising congressional wins for Democrats in Texas.

Presidential elections are more complex than senate ones. There's far more to get wrong during a presidential election.

The polling data was actually pretty accurate, especially when it came to the popular vote (which Hillary won by nearly the exact amount she was ahead in the polls by). It's easy to miss this, but Trump's victory was actually incredibly narrow - ~100k voters spread across three states brought him the win. Had 55k people across Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania swapped their votes from Trump to Clinton, she would have won.

When you actually look at the numbers and realize that the election was decided by 0.05% of the counted votes, there's a strong case to be made that this was the closest presidential election ever, with the sole exception of Bush vs. Gore in 2000.

Most reputable polls had Trump with a 30% chance of winning - worth noting that 30% isn't zero and a win was well within the margin of error for those polls.

Fucking knew it was Pennsylvania's fault. All my lifelong Democrat relatives who swapped parties when Obama, the mean old 'Arab Terrorist' came and 'fucked things up' for them.
