So can GOP House + Senate block SCOTUS appointments for 4 years? No override?

Nice!

Why is Texas becoming more blue? Immigrants? Urbanization? Demographic changes (more young people etc)? I know there is a lot of high teh industries in Austin etc, would guess those areas are blue already?

It might have just been for Trump. Like they just hate him perhaps

Mostly a growing Latino population, but I imagine the other things you listed are also factors.

 

[JeffZero]

Pinellas County, FL went red. Laaaaame. Come on my dudes.

Dammit. That's where I voted.

 

[BlueTsunami]

Senate about to go to shit.

Yep. Everyone freaking over Florida. We Still lose if Rep hold the House and the Senate again. And I'm You think it was bad with Barack, wait till you see how this plays out with Hillary.

 

[Massive Duck. C.M.]

? Sorry?

"Both sides">happy about a red House

Predictable.

 

[Frozenprince]

A lot of you guys will really understand just how fucked up things are if there's a Democratic president with a Republican Congress and Senate.

Literally going to be four entire years of gridlock, you thought it was bad under Obama? At least he had the Senate on his side.

It's going to be fucking brutal the next four years.

Josh Greenman ‏@joshgreenman
Only 91 of 577 precincts in Broward County are reporting at this point, per the Broward Board of Elections.

Y'all need to calm down.

 

[Asgaro]

Yesssss

Everything about this woman is fake.

 

[FiggyCal]

Florida

Holy shit lmao

 

[Skellig Gra]

Non American here, so how things are looking based on the remaining states? Are things going more favorably for Trump than expected or is it the other way around?

Pretty much going as expected. Almost impossible for Trump to win.

 

[Akainu]

Because there are still millions and millions of bigoted, idiotic, inbred fuckwits who will vote Trump because they're scared of brown people.

I had a kid in my unit saying as a mexican he would vote for trump. Luckily he is only 17 so he can't but still. It's scary how willfully stupid people can be.

 

[Kathian]

Not that shocking Dems not taking the Senate. Their big leader was not talking policy except more Obama - who the public voted against at the Congressional and Senate levels repeatedly.

 

[daveo42]

Dayton, OH repping for HRC! Let's take Ohio!

 

[Bay Maximus]

Trump seems to be winning everything. We are so fucked. Maybe (probably) I've had too much to drink, but I feel this is not going as planned. Hope I'm wrong...

 

[CreepingFear]

super jealous

You won't be in the morning or middle of the night if/when I'm puking my guts out.

 

[TheLaughingStock]

91% of precincts. Not 91% of vote.

Pretty much.

 

[DOWN]

Can't imagine Florida flipping back now

 

[Puck Beaverton]

we're fucked anyway with hilary and a republican congress

 

[SDBurton]

Florida

PERFECT

 

[Shmuppers]

Red House, Red Senate, President Trump.

Who do we bomb first?

uhh...

 

[LUFTRAUSER]

Because there are still millions and millions of bigoted, idiotic, inbred fuckwits who will vote Trump because they're scared of brown people.

Dude chill.

 

[Frustrated_me]

Everything about this woman is fake.

If it wasn't for Trump she would have no chance againts the likes of Romney.

 

[Psychoward]

Mccain-palin campaign manager on MSNBC going on about how Trump voters feel persecuted by political correctness


Shut up

I can't drink vodka fast enough at this point.

[Jonm1010]

Well sounds like house will stay red, which is good. Hillary will win easily when it's all said and done though.

It certainly will be fun to watch your party further corner themselves.

By either:

1.) Going into party Civil War, that could paralyze your party.

2.) Doubling down on the vicious cycle strategy of uniting the party through ever escalating partisan rhetoric to mobilize toward a common enemy that played a role in giving us Trump and is risking the long-term future of your party.

 

[JustenP88]

The popular vote being where it is right now makes me nauseous.

 

[orthodoxy1095]

Why is Texas becoming more blue? Immigrants? Urbanization? Demographic changes (more young people etc)? I know there is a lot of high teh industries in Austin etc, would guess those areas are blue already?

Lots of demographic shifts for the most part I think. Youth, immigration and pretty culturally vibrant and active metros that attract more of those two groups.

Nothing is a guarantee of course. Some disaster could happen, like terrorism, bad presidents, poor lawmaking by Congress, to reverse those trends. But the trends are definitely there.

Are you kidding me? Trump will be much worse.

 

[Nokagi]

But who did Ken Bone vote for and how many electoral votes is he worth?

 

[SuperSah]

As a Brit, I'm telling you this is how I felt during Brexit.

Good times when it flipped over real fucking hard.

 

[MThanded]

They will use the closeness of this presidential race as a mandate.

 

[Abhor]

Florida

Well done. /clap

 

[Sioen]

Hilary isn't going to do shit if republicans win house + senate..

 

[friskykillface]

Get those republicans out of the house X senate though

 

[Suburban Thug]

Holy cow man tap the breaks a bit.

He or she could have worded that better but their overall point is true. Trump is a racist, sexist, xenophobic, non tax paying, sexual deviant who has no clue how to run an entire country. He has run on a campaign of hate, fear mongering and violence.

 

[pwack]

Gee, thanks New York times!

Looks like we are getting extra senators this time around!

 

[keuja]

Florida

DEFEAT

Virginia not looking so hot so far. Florida is tight, but most of the outstanding vote looks to be blue. North Carolina looking pretty decent so far.

 

[Elfstruck]

I can't drink vodka fast enough at this point.

You might be dead before Hillary's victory speech at this rate. lol

 

[jmdajr]

Hilary ahead in Houston Texas by a healthy margin.

 

[FiggyCal]

Was Skrelli the scumbag pharmaceutical guy?

 

[amodelmerol]

Democrats open up Cuba and the cubans still vote GOP?

Can't understand this

Medical Weed expected to pass in FL!

Solar Amendment at 51% with 69% reporting.

Needs 60% to pass.

 

[JeffZero]

My glorious Pinellas County. My nights on Tyrone Boulevard.

Why did you go red. Why. ;_;

 

[Shaanyboi]

Holy cow man tap the breaks a bit.

No thanks. If someone can vote Trump after all the shit he's said, all the shit that's come out about him, then they can fuck off.

 

[Izayoi]

It's going to be fucking brutal the next four years.

Our greatest hope is the Supreme Court...

Even if we lose Congress completely, the Court could save us all.
