2016 Election Swing

I was watching a clip from a Michael Moore film and the night before the election it seemed the Clinton campaign and national media were close to 100 percent sure they would win.
They had that big arse glass venue in NY with Thousands of people in it . Trump literally booked a ball room at the Hilton because even he thought there was no way . It was framed as if he had no shot
I wasn’t old enough to vote in that election but my question is genuinely what happened?
How did so many people get it wrong about who would win.

I think he got so many votes, it overwhelmed them and they didn't have enough fake ballots to count.

The Dems though it was a shoo in & did nothing to cheat like they did in 2020. They were completely caught off guard. Hilldog didn't even visit Michigan or Wisconsin because she thought she didn't need to & she lost both.
Hence, the Plandemic that ushered in mail in ballots to help them win in 2020.

It was stolen for Trump by James Comey.

Trump got lucky, put simply.
The RCP average before the election was HRC +3.2; actual results was HRC +2.1...well within the margin of error.

He happened to win the key states by a combined 70K or 100K votes or some shite like that against a historically hated opponent and MAGA interpreted this victory as some kind of watershed event when in fact most normal people saw that both candidates sucked - it's just that Trump sucked a little less than HRC.

They shut down the vote count in several swing states looking for GRC votes just as they did in 2029 BUT they were caught flat footed then. I remember distinctly listening to ol dude on CNN saying they were looking for Clinton votes…That was a lot more literal than we knew.

but you can read.
538 had the probabilities.
search. read.
it's available.
state by state.
what happened is that comey made a big deal of information about email the Russian hackers provided for trump at his request to congress as if it meant something. read about it.
comey put his thumb on the scale two weeks before the election.

-Trump outworked Hillary in the midwest swing states
-Jill Stein played spoiler in the midwest swing states
-Trump won the vote among those who disliked both candidates but were driven to vote against someone
-Late-deciding voters broke for Trump
Those were the biggest reasons. The 2nd point is big because Trump carried MI/PA/WI by approximately 78K votes combined. Jill Stein was on the ballot and took 132K votes away from Hillary in those 3 states. Without Jill Stein, Hillary wins those 3 states and the Electoral College.

The polls and the media are used to manipulate the public.
A no-way-to-win scenario could keep people from voting.
It could also be used to justify an election night protest/coup like Soros has done before.

Groupthink and pundits who were out of touch with the electorate. Most in corporate media were also largely driven by emotions and let their own biases cloud their objectivity when analyzing Trump as a candidate.

Hillary getting in the van video, guaranteed union vote didn’t go the way they thought in the Rust Belt.

There wasn't any unsolicited mail in voting, simple as that.

I look at it as a combination of Trump getting some extra votes because he was a frick you vote from people who didn’t think he would win and plenty of people hated Hillary enough to stay home because Trump didn’t seem like a real threat.

You witnessed operation mockingbird in full effect. repeat a narrative enough and the populace will begin to believe it. they had to do everything they could to convince republicans that DJT had NO CHANCE at winning in an effort to lower moral on republican side and to keep republicans from voting.
same shite that happened in 2020 when fox prematurely called states for Biden with 60% of the vote counted before polls closed.

The cheating algorithm to flip votes didn't flip enough votes for cankles to win. They were not going to make that same mistake in 2020.
what happened?
