And the margin continues to grow.

National Popular Vote (to date) – Hillary Clinton (D) 64,418,125 – Donald Trump (r) 62,314,184 – margin for Hillary + 2,103,941
5:08 AM – 24 Nov 2016

Let’s keep asking Kellyanne Conway (r) about that.

Maybe we should ask Kellyanne Conway (r) about that again.

The sun on the meadow is summery warm
The stag in the forest runs free
But gather together to greet the storm
Tomorrow belongs to me

Just think of all the movie musicals about human suffering that will be getting awards into the next century.

Hillary Clinton, missouri, president

The Hillary Clinton campaign logo pins arrived in today’s mail.

For Hillary.

For Hillary.

I wore the pin earlier this evening when I went to the national chain “we make it, you bake it” pizza store in town. As I placed my order one of the counter workers did an obvious double take. A few minutes later, as I waited for them to complete my order, the same worker smiled and asked me, “Are you having a good day?” I smiled in return and replied, “I’m having a really great day.”

I’m voting for a President
