The 2016 Presidential Election Results Thread

If Clinton loses Wisconsin and Michigan, that's going to be bad. Nate Silver is getting massive shit on Twitter.

I still think she will win those states, but Florida is probably lost. I guess I get that $3.


Actually, Silver was getting shit from liberals who claimed the 1-in-3 odds he was giving Trump were way too high and panicking people for no reason.

It also should be pointed out that Silver doesn't make "predictions." What he does is based on interpreting polls conducted by others. If you're dealing with a set of polls that have Clinton winning Florida by 1 and Trump wins by 1 instead -- that's not much of a mistake.

But that's also why Silver had it relatively close -- because there were a lot of very close states. This is the most really close races I can remember.
 
I may have been premature. I hadn't checked Wisconsin and Michigan is still holding by a hair for Trump. I didn't imagine he would be leading in Wisconsin. That's shocking.

However, Iowa is much closer than the polls predicted with only a narrow Trump lead.

This thing is far from over.
 
Tell ya one thing this is close enough no ones gonna concede right away and this isnt gonna end till late tomorrow.
 
The one awesome piece of news from tonight: Joe Arpaio is done in Maricopa County, Az.

My night keeps getting better & better & better!

I was in WI over Hallowe'en. The only Hillary sign I saw was on a bumper sticker of a car driven by an able bodied black woman that parked in a mall handicapped space without even a placard. WI is going Trump.

checking in with gatorade, mild cheddar and saltines.

Trump is favoured even by the NYT to be POTUS, and the GOP is leading the House AND Senate. One way or the other, it's a brave new world.
 
Is it to early to start a goodbye Rory thread?

Not that anyone would expect that piece of shit to keep his word...

I honestly didn't give Trump a chance of actually winning. I thought it would be within 5 points and a moral victory for Trump.

I actually thought Romney had a much better chance 4 years ago. I had that as a complete toss up on election morning.
 
Can someone be nice to those of us who are outside of US and sum up how things are going so far? Who's in the lead and in what States?
:rose:

You all talk with insider knowledge, so for those like me it's difficult to understand your posts

Do you own a computer? Try the internet you stupid paki faggot!
 
And all the people that wanted to be chic and vote for Johnson or Stein can fuck off and I hope theyre happy.

Theyre probably hiding their heads in the sand about now.
 
Michigan just tightened big.

67% in and Trump only has a 15,000 vote lead.



Correction: 62% in.

Lot left in Wayne County/Detroit to be counted.

Im feeling better about michigan here.

It's interesting that CNN has it currently at:

197 - Clinton
187 - Trump

Fox has it currently at:

238 - Trump
209 - Clinton
 
She needs 2 of 3: Ohio, Pennsylvania and Florida.

We know she was not going to win Ohio. She loses Florida and it is Bye-Bye civility and hello fascism. The Senate stays red and we can look forward to Roe v Wade also going bye-bye.

But you know what, the sheeple get what they deserve.

And there goes Florida, sheeple.
 
And there goes Florida, sheeple.

OH no!!!

No more Wall St. POTUS !

The sky is falling!! The sky is falling!!!

How will the country go on without a bunch of (D)'s fucking everyone up the ass to make themselves rich? :confused::eek::eek:
 
Fox has given Wisconsin to Trump, which assuming they're right means it's all but over regardless of Michigan and Pennsylvania.


And I think I'm going to pack it in too.

I end with this: Given who seems likely now to be the next president, given his belief (he's said it over and over again) in punishing his opponents, and given the FBI's role in his election, I would advise everyone here to be very careful what they say online from here on in.
