I knew it would be close...which is why I knew I'd regret not voting (so I voted at lunch today) but I had no idea it would be this close. IMO, if someone like Trump can be this close to the reigning Queen of the Democratic party...I don't think that really says much about her. I could have cried when I voted for her, because I felt like I had no other choice. There was no way in hell I was voting for the cheeto. And, I would have rather made a statement. It wouldn't have mattered, as my state is practically neon red anyway. I'm half sick with the results so far.

If Trump upsets and wins...how long before he fuck's up and people who voted him in get all up in arms because he can't do the job he has promised to do?

Yes, I'm really, really getting scared. Really. To the point I'm hugging my pup and tears are welling.

They just said that Trump had 75% of women's votes in Several states. How can they even??? I'm gobsmacked how ANY woman could support him. I'm at a loss as well. At book club, one of the women that was there said she works in an office with three other women. The other three said that they would rather have a child rapist as president than a woman who stayed in a marriage for convenience and power. So, I guess that is where we are at with equal rights and respect for women. That story about him raping the child was completely fabricated. www.inquisitr.com/3693573/donald-trump-child-rape-victims-story-is-completely-fabricated/

Doesn't Cali have the most electoral votes? Is Clinton expected to win there?

Take heart, people. California has 55 votes. That could really change things.

Wow CNN just did an update on the swing state s- he's leading in all but PA (where only 17% was reporting) and it's totally not third party effect - unless you think Johnson took votes from Hillary.

Word is that he will appoint Giuliani as attorney general and Gingrich as Secretary of State. That's encouraging

CA may have a ton of votes, but it's never in play because it's always BLUE. It's states like OH, NC, FL that are game changers. (and OH is looking REALLY good for Trump, FL looking good for Trump...haven't seen much for NC though)

With as close as some of these states are, I wonder if 3rd party protest voters are rethinking their vote Every time I have heard someone say that their vote doesn't count so they are voting third party to "show the parties what they think" I want to scream. Just because a state goes one way most of the time doesn't mean that it automatically goes that way every time. A vote for a candidate who has no chance of winning is a vote for the person you like the least. And when you dislike them both equally, then what? I voted independent because neither candidate earned *my* vote, therefore doing so did not take a vote away from either candidate, because they never *had* my vote. I'm not voting against a candidate and if I can't vote for them, they didn't earn it. No one will ever get my vote purposefully by default.

You have no trouble pointing fingers at the right, but are unable to acknowledge that the left is no better. (for example, the child rapist claim that came from your very own fingers) I think our nation is in much more danger from this kind of bullshit division that gets worse and worse every year than anything a Trump presidency could deal us.

Well, I guess they will get their wish, if Hillary wins. Bill IS a serial rapist (12) ....soo there's that ...pretty sad.
I'm not either supporter by the way. I just remember when all that mess was going on. I never understood how he could not be charged or locked up, while an average citizen would be - in a heart beat.
I did vote, by the way. I know what Susan B. Anthony, Stanton, Alice Paul, and many others did for me to vote. True, 70 years later - but they never stopped fighting for us. I will never take it for granted.

Colorado, Michigan, and Pennsylvania will all go Clinton. The rest of the eastern half - Trump. I'm not sold on Michigan going Clinton. I've not seen the Clinton signs like ive seen the democratic signs in the past, in fact I can count on one had the amt I've seen in my City and the two on either side, which are traditionally democrat heavy. Trump signs are everywhere. And of all the people I know well and casually, I've not come across one Hillary supporter. i think Michigan may be closer than expected, but I am not a political expert so I may be wrong.

They keep saying Florida is too close to call, what does that mean? Are the polls closed and they are still counting or are the pollls still open?

Yes, Michigan with 15 votes is pink for Trump. A change from a bit ago. Anything can happen.
