As long as you are here, play the game.

The problem is that I have absolutely no idea what I'm talking about :p

Then pick states at random.

Battleground: Oklahoma

So anyway: Does anyone else miss the 90s?

Double Edit: It's certainly better then the crap we get these days.

*shrug*

Just looked up political leanings of states, and it had the most even partisan ratings. Probably somewhere farther west, really, but I can't gochanging my predictions willy nilly. Probably a state that's usually democratic but also quite poor, with just enough immigration for it to be a plausible group to blame.

What do you mean by 'dilute the vote' here? I get what battleground means, Trumped! would be a state he wins by a landslide, and record corrected is Florida 2000

[Strife26]

Hedge all your money between DC and Puerto Rico, then hope they get added as 51 and 52 soon.

Guys, do you want to do another needlessly complicated predictions game?  Each player lists:

Battleground) The state where the margin between Clinton and Trump is the smallest (in percent)
Trumped!) The state besides the Battleground where Trump wins by the narrowest margin (in percent)
Record Corrected) The state besides the Battleground where Clinton wins by the narrowest margin (in percent)
Feel the Johnson) The state where Johnson gets the highest percentage
Dilute the vote) The state where Stein gets the highest percentage

Rules.

Battleground: Oklahoma

"Battleground: Oklahoma" sounds like the prequel to L. Ron Hubbard's "Battlefield Earth"

One where about a third of every page was empty.

Now now, no need to get all House of Leaves on us.

Trumped!  is a reference to calls for Trump to "trump" Clinton.  Correct the Record is the Clinton supporting political group that is a lightning rod for hate.  Dilute the vote is a reference to the Green Party's audacious stand against the FDA when it comes to homeopathic "medicine".

For homeopathy, just because something is untested doesn't mean it's safe. By the same token, being "tested" and "reviewed" by agencies tied to big pharma and the chemical industry is also problematic. There's a lot of snake-oil in this system. We need research and licensing boards that are protected from conflicts of interest. They should not be limited by arbitrary definitions of what is "natural" or not.

Battleground: Pennsylvania
Trumped!: Georgia
Record Corrected: North Carolina
Feel the Johnson: Kentucky
Dilute the vote: California

So in thread relevant news, Trump has revealed his economic team - and they're almost all fucking billionaires and CEOs.

The announcement comes ahead of Trump's planned economic policy speech in Detroit on Monday. Trump is slated to detail personal and corporate tax cuts as well as energy and health-care policy changes aimed to boost American economic growth.

He has just destroyed his own "not on the pockets of corporations" motto, by literally employing the top corporate scum to do his economic policy!

Then pick states at random.

Battleground: Liquid
Trumped!: Gas
Record Corrected: Solid
Feel the Johnson: Plasma
Dilute the vote: Bose-Einstein condensate

(Quark Soup will not declare, and the state of Neutronium will actually be a dead heat.)
