And really, why would she? He's ruined her life with this campaign. I bet she'd prefer to vote for Hillary.

It is, kinda.

But it's also incredibly insulting. And isn't it also illegal?

Illegal? If it were, I would think the laws would mandate higher partitions. I'm glad we still use the machines with the curtains.

Yes it's illegal to violate the privacy of other voters at the polling place while they're voting. NY is also one of the states that still prohibits ballot selfies, but that didn't stop Eric Trump from posting a picture of his.

Lock them up!! :lol:

On the other hand, let's us hear the comments of all the true conservatives who advocate 'Original Intent' interpretation of the Constitution instead of the heretical 'living constitution' interpretation.

Such people should support the practice of our founding fathers--No secret ballot. One stood before the clerk and announced your vote in a clear manner that could be heard by all. And of course, if you were voting you were an owner of real property, male, and white.

The Donald qualifies, BoSox Gal and I do not. I don't know about WESW.

Whatever happened to that press conference Trump promised back at the beginning of August would happen within "the next couple of weeks" where Melania would clear up all the issues about her immigration history and status?

Just like releasing his tax returns, never gonna happen.

The guy is made out of pure bullshit.
GAH!

I'm wondering what the SCOTUS is going to look like in a few years.

The election is rigged. C'mon 2020.

I'm just truly sick at heart. I don't understand this country at all, it seems. I can't believe so many people are either this stupid or this hateful.

Now all I can hope is that Trump's been playing them all along, and that he'll revert to his previous liberal positions once he's in office.

And I can't believe I just typed that. Trump in office. :o
