Is the chance honestly that low? Coverage here pretty much says it's neck and neck.

National polls are meaningless on the whole, and even then Clinton is still winning in those.

A Trump win in the electoral college requires a systematic polling error in determining who is actually going to the polls that affected almost all pollsters equally over the entire course of the campaign.
 
Well... I voted last month on an absentee ballot.

It's 6am here.... So... It should be around 1pm here when we have surefire results.

Apparently I was arguing with someone in my sleep last night.

Well classified material or not I just can't comprehend how someone can be so stupid they use a personal email account for official business. I don't even care if any of it was illegal or not, how can the Democratic Party have even nominated someone so stupid! It frankly doesn't matter who we get, we are getting 100% shit!

This is scary, trump is doing way better than expected in major contested states.

Apparently (not from just that tweet), Florida is gonna be a massive win for trump, doing WAY better than expected.

Of course you have a Sonic avatar.
 
Slay him, Hillary. Do it for the world.

Best of luck USA. I need to sleep but I'll be getting up to check on everything. Real nail biting cuz of the stakes even if I'm fairly confident we know how it's gonna go.

The Secretary of State using an private email server for US business is fucking ridiculous.

It doesn't matter if others in her post did it too. It doesn't matter if she didn't send any confidential information. It doesn't matter what party she belongs to. It doesn't matter if she is old and doesn't understand technology.

Using an email server as a head of state that isn't in a bunker is DC is mindbogglingly dumb. Anyone who knew she was doing this is equally dumb and equally guilty.

The silver lining here is that such a big deal was made out of it that hopefully no one ever does it again.

It's wasn't a big deal to the fbi. It wasn't illegal..It was 1 mistake that she already said was a mistake. No secrets, that aren't already being actively stolen by russia and Chinese hackers, we're associated with her email account.


But what does the fbi know.

You are the expart.
 
Me and the Mrs. gonna do our part here to try and make Iowa swing blue.

It always hurts me to see Iowa leaning red after being a touted swing state and still going Obama twice, plus doing better than a lot of other places in the country in those, "If only white people voted." maps, still going Clinton.

Is the deplorable population so riled as to influence Iowa so harshy? Makes me so sad.
 
We pretty hyped earlier this morning after voting. Decided to take a nap to catch up on sleep.

Woke up a nervous wreck.

In 2009, the white house IT setup was straight out of the 90s. She wanted to use a BlackBerry like Barack got, instead she got this trash:

gdedgeparts-640x388.gif


So she used her personal BB on her personal email, and just avoided anything confidential on it. This as someone who before her 2008 run was an email newbie; it was BlackBerry or bust.

That's it. It's not all that ridiculous.
Click to expand...

Dude, that's exactly my point. The fact that she was allowed any choice at all in the matter is fucking ridiculous. It is so cringe worthy.

Some secret service tech guy or whomever makes these decisinos needs to step in and say, "No Hillary, the SoS of the United States is not going to be conducting business on a fucking email sever in your house.".

Literally everyone involved should have known better. The whole thing is so fucking embarrassing.

about 8pm is when alot of polls close east coast, the important states are penn and NC and FLA..

realistically his chances.. probaby 40-50% depending on turnout. not many people i know (and i live in a dark blue liberal state) are enthused about hillary. frankly most of my friends are not choosing clinton, even though they know for a fact that clinton will win the state.

it all depends on states

real clear politics current no tossup has it down to 4 electoral votes

provided he doesn't pull an upset in another state like MI or Penn,
these 3 states are "key"

colorado
new mexico
new hampshire

PROVIDED he gets all the states on that no tossup map and changes any ONE of these three, he wins.

GA and VA close at 7pm, so those states could be an early hint at how the rest of the night will go.

Trump wins big in GA and close in VA = panic

Clinton wins/close in GA and wins big in VA = hopium

It is that low and its been that way for a long time. Media likes to push the horse race narrative for ratings. Overseas its possible that it may he hard to understand how polarized the country is. A 3-5 point popular vote margin here is a big win. 6+ points (which Clinton may very well get) is a landslide. Also national polling is pretty meaningless. Presidential elections aren't decided by national polling they are decided state by state and Trump doesn't have a path to victory.

Uh, wow. Obama won Orange County, FL by 18%. They are reporting 45k MORE ballots cast than all of '12, with over 3 hours of voting left.

I don't want to jinx anything, but are we passed Hilldawg winning into "possible landslide" territory? At least from a pop. vote stance?

Don't know if this has been discussed, but apparently Limbaugh said that George W and Laura Bush officially voted Clinton today. Rewind 12-16 months and tell anyone that a Bush was voting for a Clinton and they would call you a lunatic.

The Bush's and Clintons are pretty friendly. H.W. Bush and Bill are good friends. W and Michelle Obama are really great friends.

Colorado is already trending +6/+7 comparing the Ealry Vote to 2012, New Mexico has a massive hispanic population.

40-50% based on your own personal anecdotal evidence?

I rate this punditry a Jill Stein/10.

I thought the opposite but I could be wrong.

Much of Tampa is pretty "get r dun", so I wouldn't be surprised it goes Trump.

FL is tricky, cause besides lot of areas being pretty southern, the hispanic community is heavy on Cubans and they love Republicans, cause they hate how easy the Democrats keep being on Cuba. They detest Castro's Cuba, and despite it all, love how hard they believe the Republicans are on the island.

Alright, please point us to the source of this information.
 
Just got back from voting. Was able to get off from work early. Took a nice 20 minute walk to the polling place, got in and out in 10 minutes no fuss no muss.

I chose to make America great.....by voting Hillary.

The weird dynasty of Clintons/ Bushes must continue


Makes sense to me. He knows what it takes to be president, and trump doesn't have it.
Click to expand...

As much as it pains me to say it - the Bushes and certain Republicans are the last of the GOP who had self-respect and understood stepping across the aisle to compromise.

He was responsible for some awful shit - but he wasn't a sociopathic bigot sexual predator hell-bent on destroying America.

My polling place had a free candy bucket!

Yum!

Voted D down the line. I know GA isn't ready to flip yet. I am extremely interested in the hard numbers for my state both in terms of President and Congress. I want to see how close the gap is, and the difference in votes between Prez and Congress.

My general feel is GA won't flip for 10 years which means 2028 for President. Want to see how my personal theory plays out.
Click to expand...

Eh, it's not completely outside the realm of possibility that Georgia flips. Pretty unlikely, but Trump's utter lack of GOTV combined with Hillary's amazing GOTV could flip it. I'd give it like a 25% chance

Yeah.........Got any receipts to those statements? Not that I'm calling you a liar or anything, but since there is literally zero public exit polling data right now, it's all hearsay.
 
Crossing Eden said:
Oh my god, step off it with this "both sides are bad" bullshit. Being a Trump supporter isn't just "having a different opinion." It's being a bad person, which should be a fucking no brainer for supporting one of if not the most dangerously stupid, xenophobic, misogynistic, racism, fascistic, presidential candidates of ALL time. Full stop, no one here is having any of this both sides bullshit anymore. So please leave if "b-b-b-but stop hurting the feelings of people supporting terrible shit" is your only fucking contribution. >:(

It's shocking that people are voting for him, how horrid! She would get my vote if I was in America, damn I hope she wins.

I'm so nervous about the results and as a Canadian I'm really hoping Hillary wins but it's funny watching some people on my facebook try and be low key Trump supporters and then proceed to get called out. They're all uneducated idiots who post the same false crap.
