Any pundit who is surprised by either this election or by Brexit shouldn't be allowed to comment on politics. It's like they can't see beyond the opinion of their own circle of friends. If they dirtied their shoes occasionally and spoke to ordinary people, they would realise that they will basically stick two fingers up to the establishment given the opportunity.

Libertarian Party candidate Gary Johnson and the Green Party's Jill Stein appear to have siphoned off more votes from Hillary Clinton than Donald Trump, according to AP analysis of exit poll data.   

A quarter of Johnson and Stein voters said they would have backed Clinton if they had to pick between the two major party candidates.

Only about 15% of Johnson and Stein voters would have backed Trump - but most said they would have just stayed home if their only choices were Clinton and Trump.
