Note: This poll is only for Hillary fetishists (supporters)

Assuming the (currently) very unlikely event that election night shows a very close race with the possibility of a slight Trump win due to enough swing states voting for him (like in 2000), but despite the polls showing Hillary ahead by 5-8% ahead of the election and comfortably ahead in most swing states, which scenario do you Hillary supporters think was most likely for her loss ?

A) the polls were simply wrong (higher White turnout, less minority turnout), like before Brexit etc.

B) the Russians/Chinese etc. hacked US voting machines to enable a Trump win

C) some kind of female Bradley effect (many voters still reluctant to elect the first woman as POTUS)

I'm not a Hillary fetishist (as you may know), but I think C is the most unlikely option. Followed by B. A seems to be the most likely option, because polls were generally really bad in major elections around the globe recently.

As for your question - A is the only one that makes mostly sense (despite the crude brexit remark). C is a stupid old thing that needs to be sent to the dustbin of history.

That's why I used Brexit as only 1 example of poll failure. There have been a lot recently (Colombia, Austria etc.)

As a possible other option I would float is voter intimidation by Trump supporters, since he seems to be egging that on. That worries me more than either C or B.

D. Blaxicasians didn't turn out to the polls.

Those options are part of "Scenario A".

Disgusting new low from Nazi sympathizer Tender Moron.

Shut up, dick.
