Election Day

[MLD Woody]

Hispanics and women? Shit. Someone should have told Trump they vote.

[bbedward]

Fox said Trump has the same % of Hispanics as Romney did, but they've turned out in higher numbers.

Trump also with more black voters than Romney though they've turned out in lower numbers

[mjp28]

While we're waiting. ....

Some of the Senate races both parties spent $100,000,000 or more, the jobs pay:

Position Salary

Vice President $233,000

Delegates to the House of Representatives $174,000 plus expenses

Resident Commissioner from Puerto Rico $174,000

President pro tempore of the Senate $193,400

Majority leader and minority leader of the Senate $193,400

Majority leader and minority leader of the House of Representatives $193,400

Speaker of the House of Representatives $223,500

What a crock!

Well, we had the opportunity to drain the swamp...

Yes...nothing unexpected has been called yet

Looks like Trump will get Florida and Ohio though

.. they're giving him an 85% chance at Florida

Yes but remember California has 55 electoral votes -but- FLA + OH are getting scary close.

Trump has to have Florida and Ohio regardless (it looks promising right now...), you might as well give those 55 to Clinton right now though

Clinton MUST carry Broward County strong or Trump gets a big prize. We might not know who's the President elect until very late...or early am.

[mjp28]

This is starting to smell like Bush/Gore....minus the dimpled and pregnant chads.

I voted for Gary

Well even though both Trump and Hillary are flawed candidates, Gary Johnson really is an idiot.

Jill Stein is a lot more like Bernie Sanders who you used to support.

Most of Broward is in already and Trump is still ahead

There's some, but is it enough to cover 130,000 Trump lead?

But if they can land a 5% vote they are eligible for ~$10,000,000 Federal funds, huge for a party that (if I can remember this stuff) only raises about $250,000 a year in donations.

Money & politics, sweet bedfellows.

[mjp28]

Well wife has to get up early so I'm going offline.....finish watching this one in bed.

Might be a long night, one party will be very happy and the other stunned!

Might be Bush/Gore all over again.

[bbedward]

It's going to be a long night

[bbedward]

Fwiw Trump is +2 in NH right now and +5 in MI right now

I still do. He isn't on the ballot.

[bbedward]

And he won Florida, Broward is 93% in and he's up 130k

And Ohio and NC

Jill Stein is definitely on the ballot in Ohio.

Green party probably more accurately represents your beliefs than the libertarian party does. Just a guess

[mjp28]

People still voting in PA? WHOA, this is going to be strange all night.

And I'm out......
