The Marquette University Law School poll released Wednesday shows that 78 percent of Republicans say they are absolutely certain to vote in November’s election where a new president will be chosen.
That is down from 87 percent in March and 90 percent four years ago.
However, Democrats who say they intend to vote rose from 81 percent in March to 84 percent in the latest poll.
Call it the “Trump Effect.”
Apparently Trump plans to counter this lack of enthusiasm by hiring this guy:
Vince Trovato is leading Trump’s efforts in Wisconsin. Trovato confirmed his hiring Wednesday to The Associated Press and referred all other questions to Trump’s national campaign spokeswoman Hope Hicks. She did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment.
Trovato ran unsuccessfully for the state Assembly in 2014 for a seat in heavily conservative Waukesha County. He came in third place in the primary.
A quick look at his background shows that Trovato has spent a lot of his adult life out of country. That’s cool for him, but I don’t know how it helps him get out the Wisconsin GOP vote.
I’m only enthusiastic about stopping Hillary.
She would possibly be the worst, most immoral, president of all time.
And trump wouldn’t?
Baldy,
Trump has one thing better than Hillary.
He is willing to at least call out evil and at least presents a good front at eliminating evil.
Hillary would never do that for fear of a “trigger warning” protest from liberals that she might offend.
.
Well then vote for trump. Send him some $$ as well. He called our house 3 times tonight.
Kev,
The only way you stop Hillary is to elect Trump.
Pat,
How about a current bipartisan agreement in Congress to impeach the winner immediately? They both have done enough for that.
How about Republicans taking control of their convention and nominate someone good, vs a clown?
With all the violent thugs running around out there at Trump rallies, will Trump be safe until election? Violent liberal thugs are a concern in any country.
Kev,
What you’re saying doesn’t change the fact that if you’re stated goal is to stop Hillary from becoming President, Trump will have to be elected. A libertarian vote may be a good protest vote, but it’s affect will be one extra vote going to Hillary, which wouldn’t advance the achievement of your goal.
PAt,
If Bernie becomes Green Party VP candidate, that may change the game completely.
Bernie would take all the millenials with him.
Hillary may be indicted as well.
So there is hope, 1 of those 2 things could happen before Novemeber.
If election Day comes and it is straight up Trump vs. Hillary….I may have to beat my self senseless, consider consumiing a large amount of adult beverages (which I hardly ever do) and hold down the vomit while I vote for Trump…and then do a lot of praying I did not destroy conservatives forever.

Pat,
Big yawn.
Like his endoresement will sway more than five total votes in the entire U.S.
“How about a current bipartisan agreement in Congress to impeach the winner immediately? They both have done enough for that”.
Do you know how impeachment works, and what actually constitutes grounds for impeachment? Didn’t think so.
Nord,
I take it you are implying you cannot impeach for behavior prior to taking office?
What if we find out the President was a past closet serial killer? I’m certain Congress would impeach.
Being indicted, while in office, for compromising classified intel while SOS is an impeachable offense.
As far as Trump, I’m certain the liberal smear machine can find something. It will not be as bad as Hillary’s misdeeds, but certain they can find something that would be 20% as bad as Hillary.
“Being indicted, while in office, for compromising classified intel while SOS is an impeachable offense.”
Kev, Point me to where you found your referenced for this please.
Thanks,
Pat
Pat,
Indictment while in office qualifies as misconduct in my book.
Kevin,
“Indictment while in office qualifies as misconduct in my book.”
The key thing in you statement is, “in my book”. Just because you believe, on an emotional level, that in your book it should be, doesn’t make it so.
Pat:
Interesting that kev would use that phrase, “in my book”. Just further proof of the existence of kevins “Book of His Own Laws”. These laws are of his own design, subject to change without due process, and are based on his personal religious belief rather than legal precedent.
If you act now you can get the whole set, and he will include at no extra cost kevins Book of Excuses (Volume 1-16), AND kevins Book of Made Up Stuff. All for the low price of $19.99 plus shipping and handling. Act Now!!!
From the Constitution:
The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.
Article II, Section 4
A further reading would result in a reasonable person concluding that the action of Impeachment must be for things that occurred while in office. Since Trump has never held any elective office, and Hillary is not an office holder at the present time, impeachment could not take place until there is actually an impeachable offense that took place while in office.
Nord, Baldy, Pat
So leaking vital classified information by incompetence, negligence, or otherwise, is NOT “high treason”?
So it would seem, as neither Trump nor Clinton currently hold office.
Last I checked, you do not need to be in public office to commit treason against the USA.
Several socialist USSR spies were charged with treason over the years.
But you do to be impeached as president. Why can’t you ever accept the fact that you made an error? Your continued attempts to rationalize do nothing for your credibility.
Nord,
The question is:
Does the treason have to occur while
In office?
I don’t think Constitution gives President a pass for treason they did before taking office…if America is stupid enough to elect Hilliary.
All I am saying is: I view treasonous actions, done before offie as impeachable.
What don’t you understand?
Kevin,
I didn’t know that vital classified information was leaked. Leaked to who?
kev:
The key to your comment is “I don’t think”. You can have whatever viewpoint you want, but that doesn’t make your view the law. I’m sure you wish it did, but we have a constitution to protect the general citizenry from dictators like yourself.
Republicans were stupid enough to make trump the presumptive nominee, so anything could happen. Even you and I hold elective office, so strange things could happen..
