Briefly, every state has a certain number of electors who cast their vote in the electoral college. Their vote is determined by the popular vote of the state. Each state has a minimum of 3 electors, and the amount they can have is determined by the states population (so highly populated states receive 20+ electors).

So if trump wins Florida he gets all 29 electors?
 
If Clinton does lose this, it's good bye roe v wade, goodbye gay marriage, goodbye any hope of getting rid of cit united, goodbye stock market all with an exploding deficit.
Gay marriage and Roe v Wade is probably an overstatement. I am sure the man had benefited from many.

There planet, sure.

As a reminder, the odds you see on the right-hand side of this page are based only on pre-election projections and called states. Clinton isn’t really a 73 percent favorite right now — Trump holds narrow leads in many swing states, some of which are likely to be called for him eventually, so her actual odds are probably lower.

Say it ain't so, Nate.
 
I woke up and ... wow! :O

Does this mean that Trump is going to win? Or Clinton still has a chance?
Clinton isn't good for Iran too, but Trump... I really can't think about it!
Why did I think Clinton will win easily?! :|
 
don't forget that Trump etc are elated, stock market futures tanking, and dems plunged into depression because trump has reached about a *coin toss* to victory, not because he has reached a 90/10 chance.
 
Even if Trump doesn't win, tonight has made me even more legitimately sad about the people of the US than I already was. My country is full of not only self-serving racist, sexist fucks, but it also venerates base stupidity and ignorance. Yeah! Awesome!
 
This is why echo chambers are awful terrible things to engage in. They blind you and force you not to engage with differning opinions.
Alot of gaf thought because the website was so pro Clinton shit like this wouldn't happen. Hilarious. Rest of the country ain't with it like that.

Obviously it's not over yet anyway so well see.
