Bush Sr. lost to Slick Willy in part (mostly?) because Perot syphoned off enough "Anti-Dem" votes from Bush to give Clinton the win.  Clinton did not get 50% of the popular vote but managed a majority of electorals.

Hillary still blames Jill Stein (that Russian puppet!! ) for "stealing" votes from her.  She still believes there's no way she lost -- someone else has to be responsible for her losing an "un-lose-able" race!

Kanye doesn't often refer to his race.  Although many Blacks might identify with him, he's not one to pander based on that alone.  Not sure how many Black votes he'll manage to "steal" from Biden -- especially after the lackluster performance of the last Black&White President.  Maybe skin color isn't going to be enough to beat the "Not Trump" feelings, and Biden gets those Black's votes anyway.

Hildabeast was supposed to win, therefore many Clinton voters may have stayed home thinking she had it in the bag no matter what.  Others who might have voted (D) really didn't like her, so they stayed home.  This time, the worst that could happen to Trump (and the nation) is for his supporters to believe he has the election in the bag, too.  If his voters stay home, it's the same as voting for Biden by default.

Turn-out will be the deciding factor in a close race.  I think the more people Kanye gets to vote who weren't planning to vote anyway, the less it hurts either side.  The bigger factor will be if his association with Trump helps, or hurts, his final tally.  Either way, a Kanye campaign will keep the press occupied and less focused on Biden, which gives Biden an advantage:  less chance people will see his dementia's getting worse.

On the National, ballot, I'll vote Trump,
but write my name in for everything else.
I wrote a letter to the Editor of HTH our local
paper asking what it would cost
to put up a full page add for my election
as a write in.
No response.  They are laying off people.
Something is wrong here.

I was planning on voting third party but not that third party...

Nobody cares.

Nobody cares who ANYBODY in Hawaii is voting for in the Presidential race.

The day that this state's electoral votes matter will be the day there are more than 3 viable candidates on the ballot.  With only two parties with any chance, one of them is guaranteed enough electoral votes to win.

Let's say 4 candidates take the top Red, Blue and Battleground states, and none of them have a comfortable enough lead to be close to victory.  You'll suddenly see the smaller states start to metter.

If no one gets that magic electoral total of 270 (that's 50% of 538 total electoral votes +1), then the states will play games, I'm sure, to move their electoral votes around before the official tabulation in Jan.  if there is still no winner, there will then be a contingent election in Congress which has only occurred 3 times. 

The House will give each state one vote, and each state's representatives must agree on how to cast it.  I think the assumption is the reps will vote as the majority of their voters did, but instead of electoral votes, each state gets one vote. That process selects our President.  They must choose from the top 3 candidates who obtained the most electoral votes.

The Senate gets to cast one vote each, since there is a uniform number of Senators per state.  However, they can only choose from the top 2 candidates in the electoral tallies.

Theoretically, if this scenario ever plays out with the House and Senate being held by opposing parties, we could potentially have a Democrat President, and a Republican VP.   

They are laying off people.

I will laugh heartily at the demise of the HTH.

It's Kanye. He will probably be back. Same level of consistency as Colt.

He has bipolar disorder.  This behavior is not uncommon.
