On November 8th in the United States there is an election for president. There is 2 main canidates. Donald Trump and Hilary Clinton. Trump is most likely going to win the election because he wants to make america great again. Clinton wont win because she just wants to delete important emails.
November 8th is election day. The two most notable candidates are Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. The difference is only 2.5 percent which means they are basically tied. Trump base is men and has a 11 point advantage over Clinton with men. Clinton base in women and has a 13 point of Trump with woman. Clinton's negative rating is 13 and Trump's negative rating is 12.
Hillary Clinton campaigning with celebrities, like Jay Z, is “demeaning against to the political process” according to Donald Trump. He states he does not need the help of celebrities to draw in a bigger crowd, unlike Hillary. Donald Trump complains at a rally in Denver, Colorado, that the concert performed by Jay Z and Beyonce was “filthy”. Trump is bragging that he took the lead over Hillary in Michigan and Minnesota. He plans to rally in five states on Sunday. This will be his last-minute effort to win over a Democratic stronghold. http://elections.ap.org/content/latest-trump-criticizes-clinton-reliance-celebrities
The way Donald Trump explains it Barack Obama was 'screaming' at a Trump supporter. The protester momentarily interrupted Obama at a Clinton rally. Trump says, "You have to go back and look and study and see what happened." Donald's explanation of Obama's response is misleading. The president was speaking in North Carolina, and a protestor was holding a Trump sign, and Clinton supporters booed. The president continuously told the crowd to 'hold up'. Once he had everyone's attention he said, "We live in a country that respects free speech. Second of all, it looks like maybe he might have served in our military and we've got to respect that. Third of all, he was elderly and we've got to respect our elders." and then went on to say, "Don't boo. Vote." Trump called Obama's response 'a disgrace', but didn't mention how Obama respected this Trump supporter. Instead he said, "the president spent so much time screaming at the protestor." http://www.cnn.com/2016/11/05/politics/donald-trump-barack-obama-protester/index.html
Throughout this election there have been multiple accusations against both candidates, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. Trump has been labeled as sexist, racist, and a threat to the country. Meanwhile, Clinton has had an FBI investigation over her deleted emails, and the Clinton Foundation. As some people stand strong for Clinton, and others stand strong for Trump, either way, it seems that the people cannot wait for this election to be over.
The race for the White House is now neck-and-neck. Just days before the election, Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton's lead over Republican Donald Trump has dropped to 2 points, according to a Fox News poll of likely voters on Tuesday to Thursday. The difference for the poll is 2.5 points, meaning the two candidates are pretty much tied. In a four way matchup, Clinton tops Trump 45 percent to 43 percent, a drop of 1 point from a week ago, and 6 points from mid October. http://www.al.com/news/index.ssf/2016/11/donald_trump_vs_hillary_clinto_48.html
In the final national poll of the 2016 presidential race Hillary Clinton has a four point lead over Donald Trump. She gets 44% support of the voters while he gets 40% support, that's likely. Gary Johnson gets 6% and Jill Stein gets 2% of the voters. Without these other two people, Clinton has an advantage over Trump by another 5%, leaving her at 48%. Hillary keeps a double-digit lead with woman and majority of people feel comfortable with her as president. http://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/2016-election-day/final-nbc-wsj-poll-clinton-holds-four-point-national-lead-n678611 Hannah Schutte
The FBI has caught many people trying to hack into the votes. A hacker group in Russia has targeted the Democratic party and has been trying to mess with the votes. They have discovered attempted voter registration hacks in more then a dozen states. Some hacks have been done in Russia by a group called 2.0. http://www.cnn.com/videos/us/2016/09/28/fbi-attempted-hackers-election-brown-dnt-tsr.cnn
Julian Assange, the leader of Wikileaks, has been dropping "bombshells" about Hillary Clinton in the last month. He started with the "October Surprise". He has released over 30,00 emails already. There is some speculation going around that he will release an even bigger bombshell today with the election being tomorrow. Clinton's main spokeswoman tweeted,"Friends, please remember that if you see a whopper of a Wikileaks in next two days - it's probably a fake." US commentator Tyler Durden said," The Clinton campaign is apparently spooked about a "whopper" email that could be dropped by WikiLeaks between now and the election."
On Sunday, Obama was at Osceola County Stadium. There was around 1100 people there. Obama spoke, and urged the people to stay respectful and not to boo, to vote. An elderly gentle man had stood up in the crowd and spoke in line with trump. Obama stayed calm and to the crowd to respect this man. That they can vote for who they think is worthy of president, not boo and yell at each other. This election is almost over, thank goodness.
The presidential nominee Donald Trump kicked off his final day of campaigning Monday by telling voters in Florida the 2016 election will decide whether the nation is “ruled by a corrupt political class” led by Hillary Clinton or embraces the “real change” that he plans to usher in if elected. Both Trump and Clinton are scheduled to crisscross the nation Monday and deliver their closing arguments in determining the 45th president of the United States.
http://www.cnn.com/2016/11/07/opinions/navarro-republican-voting-for-clinton/index.html Ana Navarro, a republican strategist has announced she is voting for Hillary Clinton. This is a pretty big deal since her job is to consult and give advice to republican politicians. She said she is not for Hillary Clinton, but she is totally against Trump.

Donald Trump was rushed off a stage in Nevada Saturday. He was at a campaign rally giving a speech. "Gun" was yelled in the crowd, but later no gun was ever found. The man who was accused of having the gun was a college professor. Trump was unharmed, he came back to give his speech minutes later. http://www.cnn.com/2016/11/05/politics/trump-rushed-off-stage-at-campaign-rally/
Many are saying that the election is rigged, including Donald Trump. Since his chances of winning have been dropping. Donald Trump says that the election is rigged. Fifty-six percent of Americans believe that Trump should concede if he does not concede he would be "flipping the bird" to a long american tradition, and a lot of people think that he wont concede and he will act like a child, and face real-life consequences.
On Sunday November 6th Trump held five rallies in five different states and pushed in the early hours on Monday November 7th. He was trying to make one last ambitious stand to get as many votes as possible. The five states and cities were: Sioux City, Iowa,Minneapolis, Sterling Heights, Mich., Moon Township, Pa., and finally Leesburg, Va
Allan Lichtman has been able to predict election results since 1984. So far it hasn't mattered whether he predicts it months or years in advance, he's right every time. Allan Lichtman is a history professor at American University. The man says he doesn't use anything to persuade him in anyway, simply goes off of true false statements. There is specifically 13 true or false questions he uses, he compares them himself. Polls are often wrong, and he feels as if the current power (Democrat) will not win again. But he has not released an official "Winner."
There are a few things to watch for in tonights election. Like the silent majority, or which party is predicted to win. But as we look back upon this presidential election. There have been many things that were different from past elections or elections to come. This one stood out for a number of reasons... A survey given out said that people have seen more "slander campaigns" than before. And all can hold true of false facts about another candidate. http://www.cnn.com/politics?sr=+cnn%20+elections
November 8,2016 Another batch of emails released to the Democratic National Committee ealry Monday morning. Julian Assange released 8,000 of them.

Chic Gorgol, an 80 year old man, walked across the entrance at an American Legion hall in Northeast Philadelphia saying, "This is the year Mickey Mouse wins. He's got the best chance ever. He's not either of the two people running. I support Mickey Mouse." His comments caused laughter from campaign workers who said there has been a rumor that someone always writes in Mickey Mouse.
Today, after a long and bitter national contest, votes will be cast and tallied. Long lines and voting problems are predicted to occur, so voting rights advocates, conservative watchdogs and even international observers monitor polling places. Early Tuesday, voters in several states stood in long lines including Massachusetts, Virginia, Ohio, North Carolina and Michigan.
On November 8th is the election day. There are two many people, Donald Trump and Hilary Clinton. There has been a lot of ads and tv commercials bashing both of them. Especially Donald Trump. I think that Donald Trump will win because he wants to make america great again.
For the Iowa House in District 56 (which is our district) the people running for the spot are Kristi Hager and Patti Ruff. This will be Patti's third term if she gets in. She has served as the Ranking Member on the Education Committee. She also sits on multiple other committees. On Tuesday night she will be hosting her companying party at Maggie's Diner.
November 8, 2016 Trump is obsessed with his poll numbers. When Trump was shown to be ahead in the polls, he was supporting the polls. He said that the polls were great. When he was behind in the polls, he said he could not believe the polls anymore. One of Trump's lawyers accused the polls of being corrupt. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/2016-election-donald-trump-pollsters_us_58222d6de4b0e80b02cd3beb
One person was killed and two others were wounded in a shooting yesterday afternoon near a polling station in LA. When officers arrived there were multiple suspects, one male suspect was killed and they were still looking for a female suspect, but they later found out there wasn’t another shooter. The initial shots were followed by a gun battle between the suspect and responding officers. There were two women shot and later in critical condition. One was shot in the face and the other was shot in the torso. A rifle was found near the suspect’s body and it is still unknown if he killed himself or of an officer shot him.
The presidential race is extremely close, with Trump taking the advantage over Clinton. All voting ended in 49 states, every state except Alaska, at 10 p.m. Trump won Ohio and Ohio is a key state because it only backed the losing presidential candidate once since 1944. Trump was projected as the winner of Florida, but Clinton was confident that a large amount of Latino voters would win her the electoral votes for the state. Trump racked up 216 electoral votes while Clinton has 197 electoral votes.
Donald Trump finally defeated Hillary after a year and a half! Trump reached 289 electoral votes while Hillary barely reached 200 with 218 votes. Trump said he did receive a call from Clinton, congratulating him and the entire republican party, he also said he congratulated her on a hard fought battle. Although Trump lost the popular vote by receiving 59,041,942 votes, or 47.5% while Clinton received 59,178,951 or 47.6%.
Donald Trump did it. He won the presidency with 289 electoral votes compared to Clintons 218. Although Clinton did win the popularity vote the election is decided by the Electoral College. Trumps wins in Florida, Ohio, and North Carolina were huge victories and really helped in deciding who would become the next president. President Obama and Clinton have both reached out and congratulated Trump on his victory.
http://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/08/us/politics/election-live.html Trump wins. A lot of people thought Hillary was going to win. But in the end Trump came out with the win.
Donald Trump is now the president of the United States. He won the electoral vote, but didn't win the popular vote. We can expect great things out of Trump.
Donald Trump won the election race with 276 electoral votes and Hillary came with 218 electoral votes. When People found out that Trump has won people started to cry. Florida was a tough place for trump to take over.
Donald Trump has been elected to be the 45th president of the United States of America. He won 289 electoral votes in comparison to Hillary receiving 218. Trump did, however, lose the the popular vote by only .1 % having 47.5% and Clinton having 47.6%. Not only did the republicans win the presidency they also won the US Senate and the US House. Ironically a pattern has been continued with having a republican president for this term, Obama was a democrat, before him George W Bush was republican, Bill Clinton being a democrat, and George H W Bush being a republican which creates a pattern of republican, democrat, republican, democrat, and then republican.
http://www.cnn.com/2016/11/09/politics/donald-trump-hillary-clinton-popular-vote/index.html Donald Trump may have scored a presidential victory, but Hillary Clinton could still receive more votes. If Clinton hangs on, she would become the first presidential candidate since Al Gore in 2000 to win the popular vote but lose the election. Trump, who won the nomination by securing 270 Electoral College votes, currently leads Clinton 289-218, though Michigan, New Hampshire and Minnesota have yet to be called.
Last night was the election. Donald Trump has been elected to be the 45th president of the United States of America. He won 289 electoral votes and Hillary receiving 218.
Donald Trump was elected our president earlier this week. Many people though that Donald was to far behind and could catch up to Hillary, but he won some critically swing states like Michigan, Wisconsin, Florida, and Pennsylvania. Hillary won the overall vote, but Donald's 279 electoral votes beats Hillary's 228 votes. Donald Trump will take over the office on January 20.
Obama States "We all need to root for Trump now." http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/nov/9/obama-says-we-are-all-rooting-for-trumps-success-r/
President Obama said Wednesday he is “rooting for success” after the election of Republican Donald Trump to succeed him. “Everybody is sad when their side loses,” Mr. Obama said in the White House rose garden, with Vice President Joseph R. Biden at his side. “The day after, we have to remember we’re all on one team.” The president’s first public comment on the election came after a bitter campaign in which he repeatedly attacked Mr. Trump as unfit to lead the nation. The president said he was humbled by Mr. Trump’s call for unity, and hopes he lives up to that spirit. Dozens of White House staffers were in tears after he spoke, reflecting the grim mood in the administration.
On a street corner along La Reforma, one of the most iconic boulevards in this capital city, newspaper street vendors were stunned by the headlines of the papers they were selling.Some of the more tabloid-style papers carried headlines with expletives and depicted Trump with a clown nose. The news was a stunning shock for a country where the vast majority of people expected a Hillary Clinton victory.

While voting, Donald Trump handed out cash to children. While he entered the school, he was greeted by children running a stand that seemed to be selling food. “How much is it?” Trump asked, and was told by a child that it would cost $1. “You can make a little profit, OK?” he said to the child as he handed him money from a wad of cash. It wasn’t clear what amount was, officials stated. After Trump gave the children money, he did not take anything from them and simply left to vote. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-elections/donald-trump-votes-cash-money-gives-child-us-election-2016-video-live-a7405136.html

On November 8th is the election day. There are two many people, Donald Trump and Hilary Clinton. There has been a lot of ads and tv commercials bashing both of them. Especially Donald Trump. I think that Donald Trump will win because he wants to make america great again.
ReplyDeleteFor the Iowa House in District 56 (which is our district) the people running for the spot are Kristi Hager and Patti Ruff. This will be Patti's third term if she gets in. She has served as the Ranking Member on the Education Committee. She also sits on multiple other committees. On Tuesday night she will be hosting her companying party at Maggie's Diner.

ReplyDeleteTrump is obsessed with his poll numbers. When Trump was shown to be ahead in the polls, he was supporting the polls. He said that the polls were great. When he was behind in the polls, he said he could not believe the polls anymore. One of Trump's lawyers accused the polls of being corrupt.

One person was killed and two others were wounded in a shooting yesterday afternoon near a polling station in LA. When officers arrived there were multiple suspects, one male suspect was killed and they were still looking for a female suspect, but they later found out there wasn’t another shooter. The initial shots were followed by a gun battle between the suspect and responding officers. There were two women shot and later in critical condition. One was shot in the face and the other was shot in the torso. A rifle was found near the suspect’s body and it is still unknown if he killed himself or of an officer shot him.

ReplyDeleteThe presidential race is extremely close, with Trump taking the advantage over Clinton. All voting ended in 49 states, every state except Alaska, at 10 p.m. Trump won Ohio and Ohio is a key state because it only backed the losing presidential candidate once since 1944. Trump was projected as the winner of Florida, but Clinton was confident that a large amount of Latino voters would win her the electoral votes for the state. Trump racked up 216 electoral votes while Clinton has 197 electoral votes.

Donald Trump did it. He won the presidency with 289 electoral votes compared to Clintons 218. Although Clinton did win the popularity vote the election is decided by the Electoral College. Trumps wins in Florida, Ohio, and North Carolina were huge victories and really helped in deciding who would become the next president. President Obama and Clinton have both reached out and congratulated Trump on his victory.

ReplyDeleteTrump wins. A lot of people thought Hillary was going to win. But in the end Trump came out with the win.
Donald Trump is now the president of the United States. He won the electoral vote, but didn't win the popular vote. We can expect great things out of Trump.
ReplyDeleteDonald Trump won the election race with 276 electoral votes and Hillary came with 218 electoral votes. When People found out that Trump has won people started to cry. Florida was a tough place for trump to take over.

Donald Trump has been elected to be the 45th president of the United States of America. He won 289 electoral votes in comparison to Hillary receiving 218. Trump did, however, lose the the popular vote by only .1 % having 47.5% and Clinton having 47.6%. Not only did the republicans win the presidency they also won the US Senate and the US House. Ironically a pattern has been continued with having a republican president for this term, Obama was a democrat, before him George W Bush was republican, Bill Clinton being a democrat, and George H W Bush being a republican which creates a pattern of republican, democrat, republican, democrat, and then republican.

ReplyDeleteDonald Trump may have scored a presidential victory, but Hillary Clinton could still receive more votes. If Clinton hangs on, she would become the first presidential candidate since Al Gore in 2000 to win the popular vote but lose the election. Trump, who won the nomination by securing 270 Electoral College votes, currently leads Clinton 289-218, though Michigan, New Hampshire and Minnesota have yet to be called.
Last night was the election. Donald Trump has been elected to be the 45th president of the United States of America. He won 289 electoral votes and Hillary receiving 218.

Donald Trump was elected our president earlier this week. Many people though that Donald was to far behind and could catch up to Hillary, but he won some critically swing states like Michigan, Wisconsin, Florida, and Pennsylvania. Hillary won the overall vote, but Donald's 279 electoral votes beats Hillary's 228 votes. Donald Trump will take over the office on January 20.

Obama States "We all need to root for Trump now."
ReplyDeletehttp://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/nov/9/obama-says-we-are-all-rooting-for-trumps-success-r/
President Obama said Wednesday he is “rooting for success” after the election of Republican Donald Trump to succeed him.
“Everybody is sad when their side loses,” Mr. Obama said in the White House rose garden, with Vice President Joseph R. Biden at his side. “The day after, we have to remember we’re all on one team.”
The president’s first public comment on the election came after a bitter campaign in which he repeatedly attacked Mr. Trump as unfit to lead the nation.
The president said he was humbled by Mr. Trump’s call for unity, and hopes he lives up to that spirit.
Dozens of White House staffers were in tears after he spoke, reflecting the grim mood in the administration.
On a street corner along La Reforma, one of the most iconic boulevards in this capital city, newspaper street vendors were stunned by the headlines of the papers they were selling.Some of the more tabloid-style papers carried headlines with expletives and depicted Trump with a clown nose. The news was a stunning shock for a country where the vast majority of people expected a Hillary Clinton victory.

Melania Trump is now our next first lady. She is a former super model who married an eccentric billionaire. She will be the second foreign-born first lady in US history, 192 years after England-born Louisa Adams became first lady. She tried to avoid her husbands campaign as much as she could. She preferred to stay home in New York and care for their 10 year old son instead. She said that one of her main focuses will be combatting cyber bully.

Donald Trump was elected to be the 45th president of the USA. His election shocked the nation since many people believed Hillary Clinton would win. Russian President Vladimir Putin has called Trump to congratulate him on his victory. He spoke of Moscow wanting to restore ties fully with its old Cold War foe. Trump is willing to restore relations with Russia. Chinese President Xi Jinping also congratulated him in a phone call and later said that the two countries "shoulder a special responsibility" as the world's largest developed and developing nations.

Thousands of people have taken to the streets in several US cities to protest against Republican Donald Trump's surprise victory. They are condemning his campaign rhetoric around immigrants, Muslims and other groups. In mostly Democratic Washington DC, hundreds of Trump opponents and a few of his supporters gathered by the White House, chanting in support of immigrants and against the president-elect. On Wednesday evening, thousands of people protested in midtown Manhattan, New York City. Some burned a US flag as they reached the Trump Tower while others chanted: "Not my president". http://www.aljazeera.com/news/2016/11/donald-trump-victory-protests-161110004033819.html
ReplyDeleteTwo Donald Trump loyalists, Rudy Giuliani and Chris Christie, are under consideration on the campaign promising to put Hillary Clinton in jail. The two loyalists say it's a touch decision and should be given a lot of thought. Giuliani said he isn't interested in returning to government, but when he was asked if he would accept the position of attorney general if it came to the condition of not going after Clinton, he said that it's a decision.

ReplyDeleteWhile voting, Donald Trump handed out cash to children. While he entered the school, he was greeted by children running a stand that seemed to be selling food. “How much is it?” Trump asked, and was told by a child that it would cost $1. “You can make a little profit, OK?” he said to the child as he handed him money from a wad of cash. It wasn’t clear what amount was, officials stated. After Trump gave the children money, he did not take anything from them and simply left to vote.
