I'm am just pleased, such a dishonest, proven liar, yet buys off others to stay in power is not winning, and who knows all what else that we don't know that happened, *that* is what is scary to me! Do I love Trump? No. But he mostly stands for what I believe in. It was easy an vote. I took the person out. Compared Trumps (official stand) and Hillary's (official stand). Then voted for which official stand aligned with mine, least for me. And I heard that in Pennsylvania today, voting machines where people voted for Trump switched the vote to Hillary. Someone noticed it and told a poll worker and it was fixed, but how many people voted for Trump and had their votes changed, unbeknownst to them? I also heard a story on Pantsuit Nation where a woman and her husband were voting and a volunteer came in the booth with both of them and pushed the button for trump "to show them how it worked" or something like that. They called the police.

I'm also not just talking about news channels. I'm talking about websites and online sources as well. Both sides do this. FTR, I would not have been happy with either candidate, but I thought it would be Hillary. I thought she sucked less. I'm stunned! I voted for Johnson, didn't take any votes from Hillary as Washington state always goes democrat. But I truly thought she would be a runaway. I thought undecideds would vote for her at the last minute as the more stable choice. I think people really didn't realize how sick and tired people are of voting for the lesser of two evils or career politicians. The numbers show many more non whites voted for Trump than expected. I wasn't going to watch tonight as I truly thought it would be a huge Clinton victory, but I have been glued to the TV for the past three hours now!

CTV (canadian tv news channel) is projecting Trump won Pennsylvania!
I've been glued to my tv and CNN all night!
I have been following this election for months and it is amazing how the media/polls had it all as a win for HRC.

Another one that thought Clinton would win by a landslide and I didn't plan to watch and now I am wide awake and want to see how it turns out before I go to bed - luckily I am in California so it isn't quite as late here of course I don't know if we will know before morning.

OK? Journalists/bloggers/peeps do this all.the.time. I was speaking about that one point. About unfair advantage, corruption, cheating, and lying for a debate. Mostly, since Hillary is all that and a bag of chips to most. That was/is my point. I'm not dragging out every single sentence one has ever posted, written, or said. Like I said, I am not political, like a lot of peas are. They know the political process inside and out. I choose not too. However, there's not many things poignant which happen to prove corruption of a corrupt person. I guess that's what bothered me the most. And I am saying that what journalists/bloggers/peeps do makes a huge impact on what people believe and think. Being responsible with what you are posting, reading, and sharing is important. While I do find it concerning about the debate questions, IMO the constant footage of lies that Donald trump has said and his surrogates repeating it 24/7 (yes, even on the "rigged liberal media" made more of a difference. Both wrong, but one made more of an impact and occurred on a regular Basis. Again, I would point you in the direction of the podcast "seriously?" On this American life. You're preaching to a choir that won't listen. It doesn't matter to them that Trump lied about 95% of what came out of his mouth, told lie after lie day after day, continued doing so right up until the end. It doesn't matter to them the division and hatred and bigotry, xenophobic, misogynistic, racist bullshit he spewed. It doesn't matter to them that he makes fun of handicapped people, called people losers because they weren't rich, or pretty. It doesn't matter that he sexually assaults women, grabs pussy, calls women pigs. It doesn't matter that he's dishonest, a terrible businessman, that he cheated charity, has been under INVESTIGATION for his dishonest dealings, or that he purged documents, emails, evidence that was requested by federal courts. To them it just didn't matter. Those who voted for him are going to have to live with the division that he created, KNOW that they have/are ruining LBGTQ families, that no woman will have right to her own body. Say goodbye to jobs, wages, healthcare, a protected environment. Say hello to war, higher taxes, rich getting richer, lower wages.

SO HRC is not going to address her crowds (according to FOX). Do you think this means she will contest the results?

Seriously they are telling them to go home and even if the votes are counted they won't concede tonight - seriously they were making fun of Trump for saying he might contest and now she is doing the same thing. Time will tell but I was hoping to see an answer before going to bed.

IMHO she is setting things up to fight this out in the courts.
