Sorry if someone answered this earlier but this thread moves lightning fast.

Anyone know where I can stream election coverage? I'll pay if necessary. I just dont have cable.
 
Oh god this millennial on MSNBC voting for Jill Stein. I'm ashamed of my generation.
Dont give yourselves heartburn guys. The media is finding out these shit voters for a reaction. Yesterday was the meeting of a black empowerment group, and the leader went off on NPR about how the system is crap and both candidates are the same, and how everything is against them etc. Just accept there are people with dung in their heads when it comes to politics.

Pretty much every married Republican man today.

I'm nervous beyond belief that MI or PA somehow give the election to Trump. MI more than PA.

Come on, Hispanics. Get Florida for Hillary!
 
Small data point, but my friend in the Monroe County, Indiana Democratic Party told me that turnout there is on pace to exceed 2012 levels. Monroe is the location of Bloomington and Indiana University and is one of the most strongly Democratic counties in the state. This would bode well for Gregg and may indicate that Bayh is not a lost cause. It's not enough to make any real predictions, but still a hopeful sign.
 
Okay, so why not some anecdotal evidence because fuck it this is a post reality world in which we live.

Fiance and I drove 14 people to the polls today. (Not through the campaign, just on our own). One lady is hard of seeing, so I walked her into the polling location so she wouldn't trip or get hurt. I just waited off to the side for her. There where three (white) men in their 30s who were irate as fuck because they weren't being allowed to vote. Two of them were not registered, and the other one may have been, but lived in a different county. They didn't know they had to be registered, nor did they know where they were supposed to go. According to the woman checking people in, these weren't the first people (obvious Trump supporters) that had no idea what to do. Again: GROUND GAME.

TYING INTO THAT

We decided to take the local Democratic office some food. We got a sub platter and some stuff like that. Hillary's office was JUMPING. Tons of people making calls, getting people to the polls,etc. Just a million people and in a very red part of Ohio.

The Republican office is next door. (trump has no official campaign office near me for some reason). There was no one there. It was closed. Not a single soul had been in there the entire day.

Imagine Hillary reviewing her just in case concession speech right now.

I wonder what it looks like. I'd have a hard time writing anything but basically "The world is doomed! The end is coming!".

Imagine this ground game costing Trump a point or two across the map. And then Hillary overperforming a point or two from her own ground game behemoth.

Hnnnnng..
 
Here's the thing: even if Trump was successful at voiding those votes past 8pm or whenever the cutoff was (and ignoring the fact that as long as you are in line, you're fine) - since it was an early voting cutoff, wouldn't those voters get the chance to go back and put their vote in again?

This is all about appearances. Laying the groundwork for the media empire.

Voted earlier today, kinda a long line for my area. Even tho it's a blue state (NJ),I'm happy about voting.

Screw Trump! Go Hilary!
 
+1 for Hillary in IL.

I wasn't sure if it counted when I filled in the circle so I wrote her name on the write-in line too just to be extra safe!!

I've heard talk from Republican strategists not affiliated with Trump that they expect it to actually go like that.

I think Sling is having a one day promotion, free, no credit card info needed, no need to terminate, and it has CNN
 
Do Donald Trump supporters who claim the election is rigged realize how stupid they sound? Why would you waste your time voting if you claim to know you're going to lose because of a rigged system?
