Votecastr seems like a bad idea. The tradition of not revealing voting data until the first states close is there for a reason...

It's a stupid idea but it's not going to sway anything. People are going to vote regardless. It's only there to cause panic on forums

+1 for Clinton in Ohio

Line was long but smooth. I expected a lot of acrimony today but nothing. Hopefully other places are as lucky

So in the end we're pretty much where we were in 2012 right? It was 1.7 then I believe, and I'm very optimistic we'll have a better election day vote this time. Looking good.
That's only the raw party registration vote advantage, without taking into consideration the surge of NPAs, which lean hispanic and younger.

Gotta say it's very heart warming to know how the Latino vote is coming out in force. My brother in law isn't voting since Bernie crashed and burned and convinced my sister in law to do the same. Which is fine, but then he doesn't shut up about the election he has no interest in taking part in. It's offended me more than I initially thought it would and us minorities continue to put the country on our backs for them(they are white).

Judge got sick and didn't bring the papers to our polling station. Everyone in line is not amused. Apparently judge's husband is on way. My GF is volunteering with ACLU watching a polling location later and she's freaking out.

Voted, D down the line. Hopefully we keep NY-3, what polling there is seems to indicate it's a sure thing but it's nice to know I contributed.

Is that a good lead so far?
Considering it was 4.3 million in 2012 (43%D - 40%R) I'd say it's great.

+1 for Hilldawg in deep unwinnable red state KY. Run that popular vote up I guess.

I will say it was an odd experience this year; the polling place was absolutely packed like I've never seen before. 30m wait for what is usually no line or 5m at worst. Even stranger was the complete lack of Trump signs/bumper stickers, used to rows of Romney/McCain signs on the way to polling place.

I think the surge in the Latino community vote is forcing me to wait in line. SUPPRESS OTHERS, NOT ME - kev 2016

Hey guys, member Sega Dreamcast?

Member Nintendo 64? Member Star Trek Deep Space 9? Membeerrr?

Member Super Metroid and Yoshi's Island? Ooh ooh I memberrrrr!

Bill Clinton gave us all that. He, himself, physically created everything that was fun in the 90s. He blew all that shit out of a saxophone of coolness into your living room while Monica Lewinsky ran the economy.

A vote for Hillary is a vote for all of the things that were good in the world. She's gonna give us Super Metroid again. We'll probably get Mega Man if the senate goes blue. Taking the house means Half Life 3.

Go vote.

Oh man. "Bring back the 90s" is a winning message.

MST3k is already coming back. It's a sign of things to come!
 
well folks, it's been another crazy election period on poligaf. it's been fun, and i'm glad i made it through without a meltdown for once.

best of luck today and fingers crossed everything goes smoothly.

also something something president clinton something something 90s kids

Yeah same here. In 2008 I got my first GAF ban right around the Sarah Palin VP announcement. Though now PoliGAF moves so fast nowadays that it's hard for me to keep up, so less likely I'll get into trouble.

Amazing Clinton World feat: @RobbyMook goes wire-to-wire as a well-liked, respected campaign manager. Not even 1 blind quote assailing him

Halperin makes one of his rare good points. If there is one constant with Clinton campaigns its internal dissension and in-fighting. We had some of that during the primary but the team has been completely behind Mook in the general. Feels good man.

Jamie Dimon or whoever is the head Goldman Sachs, just to piss off Bernie fans ;]

Sometimes I wished he was better at spin like Gibbs or Plouffe, but he always came across as a better person than those two.
