Electoral Law School Update: Trump Is Running… Third

It's not surprising that lawyers are with Her, but the margin is kind of amazing.

GOP Nominee Donald Trump Casts His Vote In The 2016 Presidential ElectionThe Above the Law polls will stay open till 9:00 p.m. EST. But right now, it does not look like Trump is going to win the lawyer vote. Our entire map is blue, meaning that every law school for which we have data is going for Hillary Clinton.

In fact, he might not finish second. Here’s our current vote tally:

Hilary Clinton 78.12%
Gary Johnson 10.74%
Donald Trump 10.34%
Jill Stein 0.84%

Good lord.

The strongest Trump contingent is from Harvard Law School, with seven votes… out of 80 cast. UVA has been the Gary Johnson stronghold: eight out of 36 votes. Only the University of Chicago has registered more than one Jill Stein vote… with two.

It’s not surprising that lawyers are with Her, but the margin is kind of amazing.

Tell your law friends to vote. And don’t forget to do the real thing if you haven’t already.
