WTF there's already 144,000 votes in for Florida at 0.1%? If that's the case it doesn't matter that it's .1% of precincts, because the big ones have already voted, and it's a complete blowout

Early voting.

Key race alert: Marco Rubio updating his resume.

Lol

 

[Pyrokai]

Praying for Bernie.

Anything under 15 in Florida is good for him.

Forgive my stupidity, but what do you mean "15"?

Yeah pretty much. I think it's a win win for trump in Ohio.

Again, forgive my stupidity, but why is it good for Trump if Kasich wins Ohio?

 

[Abstrusity]

Rubio on suicide watch after tonight... sheesh. Must be so embarrassing.

I was trying to paste a Rubio face on Tony Montana with a desk covered in cocaine, but I'm terrible at it. The sentiment stands.

 

[smokeymicpot]

Trump already calling a win.

‎@realDonaldTrump
Word is that, despite a record amount spent on negative and phony ads, I had a massive victory in Florida. Numbers out soon!

 

[catmincer]

Florida is efficient at getting the votes in.

 

[woolley]

They're going to predict Florida right when the polls close. And then we can see the end of Rubio's career.

 

[RPGCrazied]

You know what would be hilarious at this point? If Rubio drops out tonight, then tomorrow endorses Trump.

I mean look at what Christie did. Pretty much at every chance said Trump can't be President for a whole lot of reasons, now he is in his corner.

Man I love would to see the pecking order between Trump's also-ran endorsement candidates.

 

[OrangeGrayBlue]

I suspect that the final results in FL will be within a point or two of the current 62-35 standing. *sigh*

Key race alert: Marco Rubio updating his resume.

"Lost home state in Presidential primary" doesn't look too good to potential employers. "Likes water a WHOLE lot" might be a plus though.

 

[Vestal]

HOLY FUCK Trump at 47% with 13% in florida..

Massacre

 

[ivysaur12]

This is going to be a YUGE win for Trump and Clinton.

 

[Sean C]

Ugh, Van Jones making the stupid "red states don't matter" argument.

Thank you Anderson, for bringing up the minority voters in the south.

He will be staying away for a bit probably in a few years start lobbying.

Van Jones wasn't talking about this shit when Obama was racking up those wins in the South in 2008. What a hypocrite.

Nice, thanks

 

[chadskin]

CNN is somehow off in terms of how many votes have been reported.

AP has R and D in Florida at 2% of the votes reported, instead of the 10%+ CNN shows. Odd.

But fuck Jeffrey Lord.

Rubio is done.

In Florida, Trump at 48-23 with 16% in. Jesus.

16 years makes a big difference

When was the last time someone didn't win their home state?

 

[TyrantII]

HOLY FUCK Trump at 47% with 13% in florida..

Massacre

Rubio / Kaisch will do better with suburbs and cities. Larger precincts that will come in later. Same with Clinton.

Keep this in mind people. Early results are usually violotile, since they're small rural precincts.

 

[Tesseract]

I hope trump takes Ohio

Let's go justin

Florida is gonna blow yer minds tonight

U bez start bliving in trump stories

 

[Tubie]

I bet everyone calls FL for Trump as soon as the polls close.

 

[cpp_is_king]

In Florida, Trump at 48-23 with 16% in. Jesus.

What site are you using? the guardian is showing 1.7% in

 

[A Human Becoming]

In Florida, Drumpf at 48-23 with 16% in. Jesus.

I think you meant 1.6%?

 

[soul creator]

probably early voting

 

[Boke1879]

Van Jones wasn't talking about this shit when Obama was racking up those wins in the South in 2008. What a hypocrite.

I really hate this about people. I saw an article Shaun King wrote saying "how the process for the democrats basically insures and Clinton win."

Well you weren't complaining about this same process in 08 when Obama won.

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

When was the last time someone didn't win their home state?

Al Gore in 2000 GE.

 

[ExVicis]

They're pretty safe Red expect for Florida. Flip Ohio in 2004 and you get a Kerry win. Flip Florida in 2000 and you get a Gore win. Most Southern electoral college votes went to Bob Dole in 1996. I think Bush and Clinton drew pretty even on Southern electoral votes in 1992 though.

So it's really just if you can make a possible dent in the other's safe region you can possibly get a GE win in the bag? And so that's where the focus bit comes in and why they become so almost critical to the elections themselves?

 

[HylianTom]

When was the last time someone didn't win their home state?

Not sure if it's the last time (for primaries), but the last truly notable home state loss was Bill Clinton beating Jerry Brown in California in 1992.

 

[woolley]

lajdhfjshdfkjshd

He's probably the least worst Trump person they have on.

 

[Ihyll]

Yup it's 16% in just saw it on CNN

 

[elrechazado]

Swing states are important. Nobody talks about Massachusetts or Utah.

So much mic wind.

Yea it's not a great stream. Basically no noise cancelling on the mics

 

[danm999]

So it's really just if you can make a possible dent in the other's safe region you can possibly get a GE win in the bag? And so that's where the focus bit comes in and why they become so almost critical to the elections themselves?

It usually comes down to the swing states honestly. If you can win, say, Ohio, Florida and Michigan you've usually got it in the bag.

If you can make a dent in your opponents safe states even better, but that tends to be much rarer.

 

[Dany]

Whats the best website to see live updating coverage that isn't a video?

 

[mo60]

I wonder if trump will actually break 50% in florida since it looks like rubio flopped in his home state so far.

 

[RPGCrazied]

Awesome. Go with someone else, even if Trump has the most delegates. lol

Fun times ahead.

 

[chadskin]

Yup it's 16% in just saw it on CNN

CNN is the only outlet that has the number of votes reported at 16%. Not sure what's going on there.

The Guardian, NYT, WaPo and all others who source their data from AP show 2% of votes reported in.

 

[Yoda]

Surprised Florida hasn't been called from Trump yet.

They don't call states until the polls close.

It is soooooo satisfying seeing the GOP crumble!
