The actual population is D 45 R 45 Idk 10 But idks split 60/40 for D, which results in D gain 6 R gain 4 But existing methods ASSUME undecided must split 50/50 (D gain 5, R gain 5) What happens? Result D51 R49 Poll A graded as perfect Poll B "off by 4 big error"

La creencia de que el presidente puede estar por encima de la ley.. Es la creencia de REPUBLICANOS y opuesta por las DEMÓCRATAS ¿Cree que un presidente puede estar por encima de la ley? Maduro cree que sí Castro lo creyó Y ahora Trump Vota en consecuencia por favor

Note Republicans aren't making excuses about how we need armed security after this school shooting There's only one reasonable solution We must arm the children The only way to stop a bad student with a gun is a good student with a gun More guns is always the answer NRA
