When trying to explain election outcomes, when trying to explain the polling data . . .
. . . don't forget that 30% of the adults in this country are taking psychiatric medications: 72 million adults over the age of 17 in 2013, approximately 30.1% of the 239 million adults over the age of 17 at the time.
Uh oh, there are more white voters than the exit polls show, and they'll be votin' for Trump

Gee, do ya think anyone has an interest in suppressing the white vote?
From Michael Barone, here:
The CPS [Current Population Survey by the US Census] and Catalist report that the 2012 electorate was 74 and 76 percent white -- higher than the exit poll's 72 percent. They say that only 15 percent of voters were under 30, not 19 percent as in the exit poll, and that 61 and 62 percent were 45 or older, not 54 percent as in the exit poll.
Most significantly, they peg the proportion of non-college-graduate whites over age 45 -- Donald Trump's core group -- as 30 and 29 percent of voters, significantly higher than the exit poll's 23 percent.

Ambrose Evans-Pritchard is voting for Brexit because EMU is the greatest economic crime of modern times
From his remarks, here, where it's everywhere else a wonder that he was able to work up the nerve to side with the Leavers:
There has been no truth and reconciliation commission for the greatest economic crime of modern times. We do not know who exactly was responsible for anything because power was exercised through a shadowy interplay of elites in Berlin, Frankfurt, Brussels, and Paris, and still is.
Why Trump will win: Idiot typist at Fortune, Daniel Gross, blames poor May 2016 jobs report on . . . Donald Trump!
And Trump's not even president yet.
Did Obama ever get blamed for anything in eight years?
Not by Daniel Gross, here, a striver of the Democrat sort who's getting a head start on the return of making the future Republican president responsible for everything:
Donald Trump seems to revel in fomenting uncertainty. Trump has consciously set out to violate or alter the norms surrounding political campaigning, and has succeeding [sic] (beyond everyone’s wildest expectations) in doing so.
As a result, all of that uncertainty is likely to give pause to a large number of companies and employees in a range of industries. In fact, it’s possible that May’s poor jobs numbers – only 38,000 payroll jobs were added in the month despite the fact that there were a record 5.8 million job openings at the beginning of the month – have something to do with this trepidation.

The Obama trifecta in Orlando
His beloved queers, slaughtered.
His beloved Muslims, the perpetrators.
His beloved anti-gun zealotry, now unexcelled in history for impotence.
Hillary the Lawless, Schoolgirls & Co. at the State Dept. acted as a law unto themselves: Expect worse as president
From the New York Post here:
But the coverup goes beyond Team Hillary. Marie Harf, State’s top spokeswoman under John Kerry, started lying the day the scandal broke: “There’s no prohibition on using this kind of e-mail account,” she said.
That backs Clinton’s repeated claims that “It was allowed.” Yeah — by her. As the IG report notes, Hillary never sought an OK for her e-mail setup from State’s legal professionals — who never would’ve given one.
“Harf is implying that State approved this practice,” John Bellinger wrote his successors at State’s legal department. He urged them “to defend the credibility” of the legal staff and not let Harf give them “a bad name.” State ignored him.

NYT: Tens of thousands of American workers lose their jobs to H-1B temporary visa abuse by American employers, some start to speak up
Does anyone read The Times on Saturday?
Here:
According to federal rules, temporary visas known as H-1Bs are for foreigners with “a body of specialized knowledge” not readily available in the labor market. The visas should be granted only when they will not undercut the wages or “adversely affect the working conditions” of Americans. But in the past five years, through loopholes in the rules, tens of thousands of American workers have been replaced by foreigners on H-1B and other temporary visas, according to Prof. Hal Salzman, a labor force expert at Rutgers University.

Wow, first time ever surveyed by Rasmussen by telephone
It took almost nine minutes.
Lots of questions about gender and sexuality, nothing about Trump or Clinton.
Ickkkkkkkkkkky.
Obama's Justice Sotomayor is the total and complete racist Americans should be worried about
New York Times transcript of 2001 Sotomayor speech, here, where she says physiological differences may and will make a difference in the administration of justice and make decisions better:
Whether born from experience or inherent physiological or cultural differences, a possibility I abhor less or discount less than my colleague Judge Cedarbaum, our gender and national origins may and will make a difference in our judging. Justice O'Connor has often been cited as saying that a wise old man and wise old woman will reach the same conclusion in deciding cases. I am not so sure Justice O'Connor is the author of that line since Professor Resnik attributes that line to Supreme Court Justice Coyle. I am also not so sure that I agree with the statement. First, as Professor Martha Minnow has noted, there can never be a universal definition of wise. Second, I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn't lived that life.
Senate Republicans Alexander, Bond, Collins, Grahamnesty, GreggTARP, Lugar, Martinez, Snowe and Voinovich voted to confirm her, 68-31.

The only way Hillary hasn't clinched it is if ordinary delegates were awarded strictly proportionally by popular vote
Clinton has won 56.7% of the total primary popular vote, and Sanders 43.3%.
So if you award ordinary delegates according to that ratio, Clinton gets 2297 and Sanders 1754, both of which fall short of the 2382 needed to win.
But then there's those darn 712 superdelegates . . ..
Divide those up the same way and Hillary clinches it with 2701, and Sanders still falls short with 2062.
As things stand Clinton actually gets 2184 plus 571, Sanders 1804 plus 48.
Sanders remains the plausible alternative if the FBI recommends charges against Hillary, but that's about it.
