They sure have and I'm done seeing my GenX getting screwed by Boomer politicians.

While I hate to admit it, this reasoning is flawed. People who show up to rallies are generally the more fervent supporters. However, even people who are not fervent about a candidate (and hence don't attend rallies) can vote for that candidate. This is not to say that we aren't being lied to and that there is no fraud occurring, but crowd comparisons aren't necessarily an indication of it.

Thank you. As much as I hate Killary, face it the kind of people who support her are not the kind to show up at rallies. They are the lazy who just want the gibs or who just want to virtue signal their support for xyz online and the most effort they can make is to vote.

A friend of mine went to see if there really was a disparity. He visited both candidates party stops here in SD. The group for Trump was way bigger.

This is one thing the MSM has a really hard time trying to cover up and explain.. They (MSM and CTR) try to tell you "rally support doesn't necessarily correlate with voter turn-out".. The reality is: To some degree, yes it does..
Do some critical thinking here:
hillary's pathetic rallies have like 200-300 people typically..
Trump rallies have like 15,000-35,000..
While it is true that SOME people might go to a rally, but end up not voting, what are the chances that tons of those enthusiastic Trump voters would suddenly wake up on election day and lose enough motivation in Trump to decide not to go and vote?.. That chances are very tiny..
Likewise, they also expect us to believe that even though no one but crickets and ghosts showed up at hillary's rallies, suddenly on election day ENORMOUS swaths of the population suddenly get the motivation to go vote for hillary even though they didn't have any motivation to visit her rally in their local city/town..
Don't let them brainwash you on the rally points.. While a little discrepancy is normal, the BIGGER the discrepancy is between rally turnout and voter turnout, the BIGGER chance that it is bullshit.. And for hillary to "win" this election, the discrepancy has to be YUGE..

You act as though if someone doesn't show up at a rally it's safe to assume they won't vote. A vast majority of voters do not attend rallies.

Google is shady as fuck when you search for this. Examples: Trump rally "empty" http://i.imgur.com/9gvX0Z2.png Trump rally "violent" http://i.imgur.com/5tok5a3.png Reality: http://i.imgur.com/z7WDpuN.jpg http://i.imgur.com/iXx3kbP.jpg http://i.imgur.com/0awoYQ0.jpg http://i.imgur.com/SEpLd52.jpg

Let's face it, as a Trump supporter:
If NBC, ABC, or CNN called you for a poll, would you want to talk to them?

They're generally outsourced. You wouldn't even know.
