The presidential race has grown a bit tighter in this weekβs White House Watch survey.The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey of Likely U.S. Voters finds Donald Trump with 42% of the vote, while Hillary Clinton earns 40%. Thirteen percent (13%) still like another candidate, and five percent (5%) are undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.)This survey was taken Tuesday evening following FBI Director James Comey's announcement that his agency would not seek any indictments of Clinton despite her "extremely careless" handling of classified information while serving as secretary of State. Most voters disagree with Comeyβs decision.Trump pulled ahead of Clinton last week 43% to 39%, his highest level of support in Rasmussen Reportsβ matchups with Clinton since last October. Support for Clinton remains below the level of support she received for most of June.Rasmussen Reports will release new presidential race numbers with Libertarian Gary Johnson in the mix tomorrow morning at 8:30 Eastern.Trump now earns 73% support among his fellow Republicans and picks up 13% of the Democratic vote. Seventy-nine percent (79%) of Democrats like Clinton, as do 11% of GOP voters. Among voters not affiliated with either major party, Trump holds a 20-point lead, but 33% of these voters like some other candidate or are undecided.
I honestly hope he wins.

Regardless of the ramifications?

If I hear anymore hypocritical rhetoric demonizing literally anyone that doesn't vote the way of the left, I'd gladly vote for the Char clone out of spite. I already want this country to burn, and Trump will get us there faster. If people don't want me voting for him, they're doing themselves no favors and shooting themselves in the foot throwing the same insults at me that they've been doing for the past eight years.

If you seriously base your vote on what supporters of a candidate say, you aren't someone who is really informed.
People who vote out of spite just shouldn't be allowed to vote. I don't care who you support.
With that being said, with both options fucking me over in the same manner, what do I have left to go by on my choice between the two than what their voter base spews out?
But every attack that demonizes me for not voting a certain way drives me much closer to saying "Fuck it! You want me to be a racist bigot so bad? Fine, you got it!" In the end who really lost?
You know who else was predicted to win by polls? Bernie Sanders.

You can pick through polls to find ones that show your guy winning in either case, and even Brexit was predicted to stay by a lot of highly reputable polls, so it's just...I dunno, it's not news.

Comey probably destroyed the cunt's chances.

If Clinton picked Sanders as her VP would that be an automatic win for her?
