So, regardless of which candidate you want to win, would prefer to win, are going to vote for, etc. (because frankly I do not care and do not want to know, and it has been done to death), I would like to know what your prediction is for the results of next week's election. One week to go, so we are in the home stretch. Since Trump won the nomination I have personally been convinced that Clinton will have a decisive victory.

Hillary Clinton by an electoral-college landslide, which is not the same as a popular-vote landslide.

She'll have nuns in jail (for not providing abortions at their hospitals, or not providing birth control to their employees) by the end of her first 100 days. 

The Hill don't play.

After this FBI ordeal, her polling numbers are way down and now Trump is either ahead or tied in polls. I think she will win, but only by a small electoral margin.

Clinton by a small margin, in terms of the electoral college. Trump will win Ohio and Florida, which will mean that Clinton stays under 300 electoral votes. Depending on whether Clinton wins North Carolina (I think she will but @Hasanprobably has a better sense of that than I do) it'll be close to a landslide.

Luigi,

I can't tell if you are being facetious.  If so, my comment may be out of sync.  But if you are serious, I want to say many Women Religious will tell you how closely Hillary Clinton works with them, and has worked with them over the decades, on important social justice concerns, especially for poor children and their mothers.  Her position on abortion, for many years, has been that it should be "safe, legal, and rare."  She stresses each component equally.  I also know that she regularly asks retired Women Religious for their prayers.  Her Christian faith is an important part of her life and work.

Hillary says the obligatory safe, legal, and rare, but she doesn't prioritize the rare and expands the legal umbrella.    That is the problem.  For example, she wants to get rid of the Hyde Ammendment that restricts tax payer money from providing abortions.   But allowing the Government to pay for abortions, she expands safe and legal, and that doesn't do much for the rarity. 

The Catholic Church does not condone legal abortion, even in cases of rape or incest.  They are okay with medical procedures that may save a woman's life and inadvertently result in an unborn's death, but not an intentional killing of a child.   

Women Religious (and Catholics) are being duped if they support Hillary and her pro-abortion policies.

I think it may all depend on what if anything Wiki leaks releases with their "Phase 3" docudump and how well the pro-clinton media hides it from the public.

Anyone else keeping up with that? It's pretty interesting, it would completely destroy a Republican candidate, they've uncovered that one or two of the head DOJ investigators have serious conflicts of interest by helping inform Clinton co about the first email investigation.

Congrats on being coopted, you're no different than people blinded by the religious right. I'd love for you to show me where Hillary has stressed "rareness" as often as she does "safe and legal." Guess what, you can't. Turn your brain back on!

It will be HRC by a landslide just because Donald Trump is SO horrible.

People judge Trump on his personality. If we all used the same line of thinking on Obama, he'd be the best president ever (dude has a great personality). I just wish people could look past the surface and vote based on actual policies and things the president will actually be doing while in office.

well his proposed policies are horrible. Based on religious freedom alone he is too dangerous to be allowed near the White House. Of course HRC is also too dangerous... so we're dead. 

well not dead I should say. I feel we will survive either of these jokers as a country and as a church. But it will be pretty terrible.

Your survey responses are not exhaustive.

Shame on you.

Is a tie possible?
