Now Trump's son and parts of the campaign are saying this was an assassination attempt.

If that were the case the SS wouldn't have led him continue.

Saw some weird tweets speculating it was staged. I think anyways.

I wouldn't say that; looks like the SS were very jumpy and just jumped the gun for whatever reason. Trump rallies are very angry events.

Man was already released. Apparently he did nothing wrong.

The sign said Republicans against Trump so he was deemed a threat I guess...they got him on the ol 'going for his waistband'.

So some idiot shouted "gun" and this poor guy gets tackled, taken to the ground, handcuffed, escorted out while the crowd viciously boos him, and then probably searched inside a bathroom.

The gun thing is a SS move to get people's attention

Here's the thing. The biggest outliers here are the 98%-99% for Hillary predictions. The model I like the most is the Upshot one, looking at the state by state predictions, and honestly I might write 1500 words about this on Monday if work is as boring as it seems like it will be, so you can read why. But I am 1000% Team Nate on how/why the Princeton model and the Huffington Post model are astronomically dumber than his even though I disagree with how he's dealing with uncertainty.

Jon Ralston ‏@RalstonReports
NV GOP Chair's henchman, now with Trump campaign as poll watching chief, showed up at Mexican market last night to complain. "Last night, in Clark County, they kept a poll open until 10 o'clock at night so a certain group could vote."


Sam Stein @samsteinhp
Just to be clear, both Trump and the Nevada GOP chair have now criticized the decision to allow people more time to VOTE


Those black and brown people, boy...

Early voting is mostly stupid but I think I'm OK with it starting within a week of the election
