I honestly have no idea. There are like 5 candidates tied at 10% of party support. But tbh, it doesn't matter: there could be the second coming of Dwight D. Eisenhower, but I don't think he would stop Hillary at this point. The Republican candidate will be there to make up the numbers. With Americans becoming ever more liberal, I can't see the antiquated Republican party getting a candidate voted into the Presidency for the foreseeable future unless it drastically changes its policies to better mirror the times we find ourselves in.
From my experiences, my generation (Millennials) and the majority of my parents' generation (Generation X) believe the Democrats are the modern party and the Republicans are the party of our grandparents/great-grandparents.

Then again I was surprised by the British election as well, so maybe learning about politics via reddit isn't the greatest source of information

A quick look on wiki suggests that the democratic party haven't had three consecutive presidential terms since the 1840s

No it isn't. We still remember seeing Palin and Santorum on TV. Pair of window lickers
