    Yeah, a rude awakening if you think Trump can swing a landslide victory!
    Will you come back to eat crow if you prediction fails or will you pretend it never happened.

    OK, I probably pushed it on "landslide" but he only needs to flip a couple of states. He flipped Minnesota on Sunday and the post-transit strike in Philly is kind of a mess. She needs Philly to win PA. His supporters are more energized than hers.

    And FWIW, I'd be happy to eat that crow.

    Maybe no landslide, but Trump wins.

    according to CNN projections, HRC has 268 locked up, Trump has 204. with 66 being battleground. he has to win ALL OF THOSE TO WIN.

    he's not winning.

    If you believe 538, Trump has 235 locked up. Not one of his states is in jeopardy. All he needs to do is win toss-up NC and Florida and he'll shock the world.

    if you believe 538, trump has a 28% chance of winning. those ain't good odds.
    You mean a map that looks like this?

    but someone coloured some of the states in your map incorrectly.

    what's everyone drinking tonight?

    Maybe scotch. I have some friends coming over to watch the results, win or lose, we hit the booze.
    Bourbon. Smoke a little green and drink a little whiskey watching the election results. Repeat the process tomorrow to watch the lawsuit results. USA! USA! USA!
    So much Bourbon. Want it to go late in to the night for entertainment purposes. I need handwringing and rhetorical bloodletting on all sides. A loss on either side will hopefully give me the public infighting that I crave.
  • what's everyone drinking tonight?

    not sure yet....either vodka/soda with a splash of red bull or....might do cold beer with bourbon

    what about you?

    Philly is looking at potential record turnout eclipsing the 70% from 2008. All it takes is that orange lunatic to bring this city together.

    My polling place had a line a block and a half long at 8 am. Have voted there for 8 years and have never seen it like that. My sister in a nearby neighborhood waited a half hour. Saw numerous long lines throughout the city on my bike on the way into work. I will be leaving work early to vote, wasn't waiting in that line.

    If Trump was banking on low turnout or enthusiasm in Philly, it would seem he was sadly mistaken.

    There should never be lines like that to vote, it's a fucking shame.
    If you think long lines in inner cities has nothing to do with voter suppression of democrats you are a damn fool.
    People wait in longer lines to get on rides in Disney World. I LOVE IT that lines are long for voting. Yay for democracy!

    I volunteered at my precinct for the 5-7 AM shift. It was 33 degrees out, and not a single person left because of a 25-minute wait in line or the cold.

    Voting is EASY.
    Disney World isn't a right, it's a privilege!
    Voting should be easy and shouldn't require standing in the cold at all. If the parties want to spend billions on tv ads, they should be required to contribute a percentage to an election board that facilitates voting access.
    Boom goes the dynamite.

    I don't think anyone should have to wait more than 20 minutes to vote. $1billion election
    $7 billion Halloween. Americans spent more on Halloween candy than they have on our election.

    The billion election dollars don't go to state and local election commissions, and God forbid we raise any taxes to upgrade our systems.

    In my locality, they couldn't get enough poll workers to check people in. VOLUNTEERS are spread thin, some working 5 AM TO 7 PM -- 14 hour plus shifts -- to process people. Give them a fucking break. Shut up and vote, you entitled whiners.
    Come down off your high horse and stop being defensive. So you volunteer. Cool. That doesn't mean you have to defend the indefensible.
    Get on board with making voting easier and getting some of the money to people like yourself, don't insult people arrogantly.

    I voted, I don't live in an anthill (remember, a trailer in Amish country lol) so there was no wait.

    I live in an all mail-in ballot state. No lines! All voters get their ballots mailed to them. I took a few evenings, went through the ballot slowly and carefully, and then just dropped it in a collection box. It can also just be dropped in your mailbox. No lines. No weather. No transportation issues. Easy!
    But if you know who loses Washington State he'll claim that the USPS was in on the rigging.
