Black Friday

Black Friday is the day following Thanksgiving Day in the United States (the fourth Thursday of November). Since 1932, it has been regarded as the beginning of the Christmas shopping season in the U.S., and most major retailers open very early (and more recently during overnight hours) and offer promotional sales. Black Friday is not an official holiday, but California and some other states observe "The Day After Thanksgiving" as a holiday for state government employees, sometimes in lieu of another federal holiday such as Columbus Day.^[2] Many non-retail employees and schools have both Thanksgiving and the following Friday off, which, along with the following regular weekend, makes it a four-day weekend, thereby increasing the number of potential shoppers. It has routinely been the busiest shopping day of the year since 2005,^[3] although news reports, which at that time were inaccurate,^[4] have described it as the busiest shopping day of the year for a much longer period of time.^[5] Similar stories resurface year upon year at this time, portraying hysteria and shortage of stock, creating a state of positive feedback.

Donald Trump vs Hillary Clinton today !

 

The first presidential debate is Monday night. Hillary Clinton has some work to do. She was probably expecting to go into the first debate ahead by double digits. WHY ISN’T SHE LIKE, 50 POINTS AHEAD????? She certainly can’t figure it out.
The latest ABC News/Washington Post poll shows Hillary and Trump at a virtual tie, with 46 percent and 44 percent respectively. (Gary Johnson has 5 percent and Jill Stein has 1 percent.)
I used to wonder the same thing, but my younger sister was recently polled. I was so excited when she told me and asked her who it was, but she couldn’t remember. Because she’s a dork.



And as usual, here’s RCP’s current national polling average:

A whopping 74 percent of Americans say they plan to watch the first presidential debate. It’ll be interesting to see what the national poll numbers look like after that.
