If Donald Trump makes a breakthrough, the hidden side of the US Presidential election will be exposed
9/11/16
“It’s
not only the loss of confidence in the Government, but also the loss in the
electoral procedure. And then the whole American democracy will be doubted”
The realistic American
On
October 21, Reuters/Ipos announced the result of its opinion poll on two U.S.
presidential candidates.
According
to the poll, 70-year-old billionaire Donald Trump is narrowing the gap with his
democrat opponent Hillary Clinton despite being entangled in the scandal of
infringing women and constantly skeptical about the legitimacy of the 2016
election.
The
former US
Secretary Clinton is on the lead in the race with the “boss” of real estate
Donald Trump with the score of 44%-40%. In comparison with the result of the
previous poll (44%-37%), the gap has been narrowed dramatically.
The
results of opinions polls of the US mass media are different from
each other. In the 3 times of CNN opinion polls, after the first presidential
debate, the percentage of supporters for Hillary was 62%, while the percentage
for Trump was 27%; After the second debate, the percentage for Hillary dropped
to 57% while the percentage for Trump was 34%. After the latest debate, the
supporting percentage of Hillary and Trump was 52%, 39% in turn.
Meanwhile,
Real Clear Politics issued that the
supporting percentage of Hillary is 48% and Trump’s one is 44%. And in the CBS
News’ result, Hillary is leading with 51% while Mr. Trump has 40%.
In
a completely opposite result announced by Los Angeles Times, Mr. Trump has
46.5% higher than Hillary’s percentage of 43%.
In
the poll, Reuters/Ipos also asked everyone about Trump’s behavior.
Answering
the question, 63% people, including 1/3 potential voters of the Republican
believed that Mr. Trump has inappropriate behavior to women.
American
always lives realistically and practically. Some people, who joined in the
poll, said that no matter the scandal is real or not, they still support the New York billionaire candidate because they think that
what Trump did in the past is not more important than what he would do as the
President of the United
States.
The election of doubt
Related
to the result of the upcoming election, only half of the Republican voters said
they would accept Ms. Hillary Clinton to be the President, though 70% of them
believe that there may be fraud in the electoral process.
In
contrast, 70% of the Democrat voters said they would accept Mr. Trump to be the
President, though nearly 50% of them believe that the result is invalid or was
arranged.
The
polls were organized consecutively after Trump criticized repeatedly media and
political organizations for arranging the election against him. The billionaire
also stimulates supporters to prevent voter casting their ballots in the
election day on November 8.
About
who will be the next President of the United States, Ms. Clinton said she
would accept the result of the election, while Mr. Trump said his decision
depends on the result of the election. There are 8/10 members of the Republican
concern about the accuracy when counting votes. This rate of the Democrat is
6/10.
Ms.
Lonna Atkeson, Professor at New
Mexico university, head of the research center of
Vote, Election and Democracy said that: “the Republican has worried much more
than the Democrat”.
According
to the professor, the concern and losing confidence in electoral system,
especially in the Republican, are at the highest level. “I have never ever seen
an election like this. Absolutely not in this modern history,” Ms. Atketson
expressed.
She
said that the losing in confidence is very dangerous. Loss of confidence in the
government is one thing, but loss of confidence in electoral process is
different. “And then the whole US American democracy will be doubted,” Ms Atketson
affirmed.
The
presidential election has a lot of doubts about the transparency. It has shown
clearly the hidden sides of the US
presidential election. Besides, it shows American are very confused and
frustrated with the government in ensuring their ballots to the right person
that they support and trust./.
