Trump's got this if he can win Florida.
That damn Florida AGAIN!

It's gonna go back and forth a shitload and whatever happens it'll be by 1-2 pts methinks.

I'm stopping the coffee, and gonna have my semi-annual drink. 7&7

WTF with Virginia?

If it was 1-5% reporting, I'd say just rural. But now around 20% with some urban zones. She's gotta shoot up at some point.

Edit: Over 30%? And still double digit Trump?!

Question on early voting; Are the early votes usually the first to be counted? or not necessarily?

Clinton crushing in Ohio?

I just saw them call a state with 1% of the vote in, and at least one more with less than 10% of the vote in.

Otherwise no surprises so far.

No, I think Columbus counted first (heavily Black).

Same in Texas, San Antonio results, less than 1% reporting. Very democrat town

Trump is now only down 0.2% in Florida with 52% reporting and Broward, Miami-Dade reporting total initial results. So Hillary's key area is all in now - but the Panhandle is still counting, so is Tampa and other Central FL counties.

D.C. burbs area not reported in yet for Virginia. I think Clinton country hasn't weighed in yet in that state. Could be closer than expected though.

Marco Rubio is projected winner for Florida Senate seat. No surprise there either. I figured the name recognition alone would do it.

It's the shock of the night so far. Surprised but I doubt goes to Trump.

As if ?

YOu're so fucking confused. Lincoln was a liberal progressive. You would have been cheering his assassination. Get serious man !

Florida 28 votes difference with around 8 million votes cast!

Wow. Trump is up by like 20-30 votes in FL right now. Insane.

The CIA vote:

Rew says

OOooo ... there is the 538 state by state call and graph ... hot!

Neat graphics, but the methodology is pretty simple. He's not updating with poll results at all, so it's pretty useless at calling states. It would be sweet if he had a live county by county feed to work with.

If Clinton takes Florida before I get home to get my drink on ... :/

She likes a quickie I see.

NH is making me nervous, but only ~10% counted. I have that as my pivot state.

Every state is different. OH and TX report a lot of urban areas first; VA is the opposite.

NC also the urbans are in, lots of suburbs and rurals to count.

They just called Alabama, with only 1100 total votes counted.

Let me guess, it went to Hillary!

No. But I still think it's pretty irresponsible to call a state with that low a vote count and/or percentage. I was making fun of that.

Ha, two whole votes in Maine, both for Trump. I mean 2 in the whole state. Must be one tiny precinct!

VA narrowing. People still voting in one spot MD, even though polls are closed.

Pretty safe bet before any votes were counted.

1 out of 71 Aroostock Precincts. hahaha.

Up overall in Maine, but way to early.

The time Trump was winning by double digits, but the state called for Hillary:

(Not that this is likely to end up being wrong, but come on, don't fucking call it yet)

Trump up by 100,000 in Florida right now!

Calling it way early is just one more way the press shows their bias.

Stupid me for giving my cell phone number to patients. Canadians who didn't realize what today is! Okay, I'm back.

Florida is going to be crazy close. New Jersey is a HUGE surprise. VA is a YUUUUUUUGE surprise!

Is there a particular reason why Broward had a relatively low turn out percentage wise?

If Broward and Dade have a low turnout, that wouldn't be good news for Clinton. She needs those counties, IMHO.

Call it now! Which state will determine this election? Winners get street cred. You have ten seconds... Go!

Nevada?

Florida

Did somebody establish a secret Libertopian base in Monroe County, Pennsylvania?

It's John Galt, I tell ya!

Nevada is what I would have said yesterday, but with VA in play... and maybe NJ.... I just don't know anymore.

Clearly, my map prediction was a bit off.

PA is done. Clinton is getting that. No surprise.

I'm thinking that Maine could split it's electoral vote and troll the electoral college.

Maine, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, California, Arizona

All bold, real Americans. Voting to put themselves on the other side of the USFEDGOV archaic, unconstitutional, racist, anti-science war

I voted Gary Johnson

Fuck both the other failed losers

Chris Walace just said Trump might be the next President

Of course if Fairfax and Arlington VA haven't been counted yet, Trump should be worried.
