Already voted all Democrat. Republicans fucking scare me, specially their orange master. No, thank you.

From Time Magazine:

Yessssss. The End is Near, indeed!

On a serious note, this whole weekend and day of the presidency are going to be absolutely crazy. I am afraid of what the Crazy Trump supporters will possibly come up when they realize that their Devil King isn't going to win and that means Color matters!

From Canada:

(Really excellent OP.)

Don't worry too much. The US has minorities willing to do the good work.

 

[mnz]

I was really surprised that only about 66% register to vote and only 57% voted in the last election. That is so low!

 

[saelz8]

Been playing with 270ToWin and it isn't going to be easy for Trump to get to 270. He practically has to sweep all the swing states.

The electoral college destroys a lot of the incentive for people to vote in most states. If the US switched to popular vote that percentage would increase for presidential elections.

 

[mnz]

Do swing states have higher percentages of voter registration then?

 

[Hickbilly Deluxe]

And that's fine. It's your American right to vote for whoever you want. Don't mind the peanut gallery

At least this guy gets it.

 

[Donos]

i hope this won't be a dejavu like brexit where i wake up here in germany, start the news and see that trump has won. I seriously couldn't belive it for a few minutes when i saw that. That was bizarre.

That would make sense if voter registration was much higher for local elections and midterms, but it's much lower.

Don't worry rest of the world. Minorities and women got this.

 

[Branduil]

Do swing states have higher percentages of voter registration then?

Generally.

A big part of it is you have the three biggest states(California, Texas, and New York) not being remotely competitive(but that's starting to change in Texas).

That would make sense if voter registration was much higher for local elections and midterms, but it's much lower.

Why would that make sense? Most people are more interested in voting for president than for their local rep. If your vote for the president isn't going to matter, you have less incentive to vote... that's exactly why midterms have lower turnout.

Oh wow Obama is on the way out?

Edit: wtf the guy from the apprentice Is running for president!?! LOL America

 

[Stormwatch]

I live in a suburb of Atlanta and I have to say I was really surprised at how little choice I actually had when voting. Yeah, I had 3 choices for President and Senator, but every single local office was a Republican running unopposed. It's very telling that other parties don't even bother trying to run against them.

 

[BitStyle]

Interested in how close the polling will be to results this go around.

It will be an entertaining night for sure, so I plan on popping some popcorn.

Oh wow Obama is on the way out?

Where have you been? lol

 

[Grym]

Ready or not, here they come!

 

[Darksol]

Don't fuck this up.

 

[RoKKeR]

Almost there. I think I forgot what life was like before this election.

I really want Utah covered in egg mcmuffins.

Did my part.

 

[e_i]

Ready or not, here they come!

I welcome our new taco truck overlords.

 

[Lightning_Roller]

On the night of the election, I plan on making a pepperoni pizza and watching the event unfold.

 

[Bad_Boy]

Got my ticket to europe ready.

 

[e_i]

So, if Trump loses a swing state and can't flip a blue state, he loses, right?

 

[Grym]

I welcome our new taco truck overlords.

Can't wait for #tacotrucktuesday

 

[Lightning Count]

Following the election close be glad when it's over. Do the right thing please and crush Trump in a landslide win for Hillary. The world is already fucked up enough, let's not blow ourselves up because the US elected a scumbag to office.

 

[sphagnum]

Oh wow Obama is on the way out?

Edit: wtf the guy from the apprentice Is running for president!?! LOL America

There's no way this post can be real.

 

[AuthenticM]

This might as well start playing in the skies if Trump wins.

 

[Syder]

There's a heck of a lot of hopium over on PoliGAF and GAF as a whole is kind of an echo chamber for Clinton positivity.
As a Brit that witnessed his country make one of the biggest mistakes in its history, I really hope all this positivity is justified.
See that church that got burned down and had 'Vote Trump' sprayed on it? That's only going to get worse if this guy gets in.

Oh wow Obama is on the way out?

So when did you get of off that desert island?

Thank god, I'm starving.

 

[Brutalitops]

So we are voting in a single term president either way right?

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

So, if Trump loses a swing state and can't flip a blue state, he loses, right?

Correct

 

[giga]

If all goes according to keikaku, I just want everyone to thank a minority and/or woman on Wednesday.

Now I know how Michelle must of felt like when she heard Melania give her speech:

Isn't that the guy from the Apprentice? What's he doing running for president?

 

[Herne]

From an Irish and European person, please go out and vote and please vote for Hillary Clinton. The world is watching with baited breath...

 

[Auto_aim1]

Relax guys, she got this. Hispanics will win it for her.

 

[SchrodingerC]

THE END IS NEAR! REJOICE GAF!
Now to await for the Election day bloodbath.

 

[Brawly Likes to Brawl]

Already voted on Wednesday, I can't wait for this to be over.

 

[sam777]

Surely this is a joke post.

 

[Jamie OD]

From the outside looking in all I know is the internet will be fucking insane next week.

 

[BrokenIcarus]

It could basically be done as soon as NH, FL, OH or NC are called right? Trump would have to win all of them.

So at what time can I expect to stop panicking? 10ish?

 

[CrazyDude]

From the outside looking in all I know is the internet will be fucking insane next week.

Clinton is going to delete the internet if she wins so that she can hide her emails.

 

[Lightning_Roller]

THE END IS NEAR! REJOICE GAF!
Now to await for the Election day bloodbath.

Burner accounts are going to fall on all sorts of swords on that day and afterwards. Maybe a few accounts might go bust too.

 

[Sai-kun]

Voted on Thursday

I'm gonna be at work the whole evening. It'll be a new world by the time I step out!

 

[Grover Cleveland]

So we are voting in a single term president either way right?

If its Trump, definitely. But that's by default because it may be the last term for any President of the United States. We'll all either be speaking Russian or dead by 2020

If its Clinton, hmmm good chance of it. I would expect Republicans to double down on the obstruction if she's President and hope she's the one who gets blamed when nothing gets done over the next 4 years; underlying the importance of looking downballot at the polls as well as at the top of the ticket.

 

[Volimar]

Where have you been? lol

Bathroom

 

[Hours Left]

Ready or not, here they come!

I'm gonna buy some tacos on Tuesday as a sign of solidarity.

...what are you?

 

[PsychoSoldier]

We won't need to watch the election because Nostradumus apparently foretold this election according to the History Channel.

 

[Quonny]

My wife, who is a staunch Republican, showed me her mail-in ballet. She marked everything Republican except one little circle.

 

[HylianTom]

So we are voting in a single term president either way right?

One four-year Presidential term, and several lifetime Supreme Court appointments.

As of late, most SCOTUS terms are lasting more than 25 years apiece.

The consequences of this one will reach very far into the future.
