I would so laugh. In brief: what would happen if the Supreme Court with only eight members had to step in to resolve an election?

Election getting tight, according to various sources. Maybe we need a 4th debate?

3rd one didn't boost her. Trump's mouth has somehow been sort of reigned in.

If you vote for Jill Stein, I'm just going to assume that you are an idiot.

The actor said she does not "vote with her vagina" and will instead be voting for the Green candidate in the US election, Jill Stein.
Well, clearly she also does not vote with her brain.

No matter who wins the next election, the rest of the world is still laughing its ass off.
“I heard the election is being controlled by Russia. Is it true?” asked Anas al-Abed, 27, a Beirut cafe worker who said he has been following the campaign closely ever since he read that the Republican nominee, Donald Trump, had bragged about assaulting women.

“America always spoke to Arab countries as if they had so much to learn,” he said. “And now we see their own democracy involves choosing between a woman from a dynasty and a man who says the system is manipulated. If that’s democracy, then we don’t want it.”
...
“It’s very shocking and disturbing to see this happening on such a scale in the richest country on Earth,” said Koichi Nakano, a political-science professor at Sophia University in Tokyo.
...
“This campaign makes the implicit argument that the U.S. model of liberal democracy isn’t what it’s cracked up to be,” Parakilas said.
...
In the state-controlled media of America’s nondemocratic rivals and adversaries, the campaign has only exposed what they long knew the country to be — a declining and morally bankrupt power.

More reasons to hate Brady and Belichik?
Trump told supporters in this Patriots-supporting battleground state on the eve of Election Day that Brady called him earlier in the day to tell him he voted for him, and that he could share the news with supporters. Trump also said he received a letter of support from Patriots coach Bill Belichick, who urged Trump to share the letter with supporters during his rally here Monday night.
"Donald, I support you, you're my friend and I voted for you," Trump said Brady told him over the phone on Monday, drawing ear-shattering applause from the crowd of more than 11,000 supporters, based on the venue's capacity.

While Trump said Brady told him he had already voted, the Patriots quarterback said in an interview Monday morning that he had not yet voted and planned to vote either later in the day or Tuesday.
"No, I haven't voted yet," Brady said on the WEEI Boston's "Kirk & Callahan Show" when asked.
Unless Brady voted by mailing in an absentee ballot, he could not have voted early on Monday. Early voting ended Friday in Massachusetts.
Trump then read a letter he said he received from Belichick, in which the Patriots coach said he hoped Trump would clinch the presidency on Tuesday.
"You've proved to be the ultimate competitor and fighter," Trump said, reading Belichick's letter. "Hopefully tomorrow's election results will give the opportunity to make America great again."

638 gives Trump more of a chance than others.
With the same information, 538 is currently predicting a 65 percent chance of a Clinton victory, while HuffPost’s Natalie Jackson and Adam Hooper are projecting a 98 percent chance,[1] and Sam Wang at Princeton Electoral Consortium is predicting a >99 percent chance.[2] What gives?
