Elections Thread

[Wells]

This is gonna be a "timeline" where I just post "live" coverage of random elections that will never happen. The first election: Clinton vs. Trump.



Random anchor: Hello, welcome to CNN's America's Choice 2016. I'm a random anchor who will be covering tonight's results. But first, let's review the campaign.

Trump remained consistently gaffe-prone throughout the entire election cycle, finding a way to insult everyone and also finding very little policy proposals. But most of his supporters defended his questionable comments in various ways. Clinton also won the debates against him, though Chris Christie won the VP debate against Sherrod Brown.

But there is a reason polls remain close. Recent economic developments have unemployment rising, growth stagnant, and the Stock Market falling. Unemployment for October is at 7.1%, up from 6.8% in September. Meanwhile, terrorist attacks have occurred in London, England, and Austin, Texas.

National polls show Clinton leading Trump by a slim 43-39 while third party candidates like Johnson and Stein are at unprecedented levels of support. According to polls, the closest states will be Texas and North Carolina.

Let's wait for the first results to roll in from Indiana and Kentucky. Our analysts and pundits should be here by that time.
