2016 elections - because it's never too early

[Admiral Yi]

We have met the enemy and he is us.

Something to keep an eye on is Arizona . . . exit polls and early returns have been close.

If there's one thing to learn from today it's the uselessness of exit polls.

[Syt]

So I'm going to hang on to the Virginia example for awhile and not get too worried about early results in Wisconsin and Michigan and NH.

It's very early, but Clinton leading in Iowa with 5% reporting.

Clinton still has some chance to win the presidency, yes.  But she has no chance of getting a mandate, or even a concession of the legitimacy of her win.  We're down to the two most disastrous outcomes.

At this point I will settle for a dissapointing win.

Honestly, I don't know which one is worse.  Maybe with Republicans sweeping the presidency, both houses, and now the Supreme Court, we may achieve the seemingly impossible:  a demonstration of what a disaster contemporary GOP policies are to the extent that they're impossible to attribute to anything else other than GOP policies.  A narrow Clinton win (which won't even give her a Supreme Court nomination) will just further ensnare our country in a frozen civil war conflict.

They'll find ways to deflect blame elsewhere, at least for a while.

The regular polling was terrible as well.

I don't know, the ones some will fill-in when they leave America could be quite informative to a Trump administration.


Minsky do you have access to something like an Irish passport?

Didn't we learn that like 4 elections ago?

Florida called for Trump

[PDH]

Well, considering that Brexit unleashed a number of violent incident from people who felt authorized, and vindicated, I worry about the aftermath of the Trump presidency. Nothing in his campaign, or from his supporters, indicate they will be decent winners. Or losers.

It will be a bad time to be a communist on the streets of Berlin.

Coffin, may I introduce you to another nail.

[Barrister]

The count in Penn is narrowing dramatically, and apparently in Wisconsin the vote from Milwaukee (heavily Clinton) is mostly in.

[FunkMonk]

The good thing about democracy is it is ultimately self-correcting.

Hopefully we at least 4 years to realize our mistake. 

[Zanza]

I just hope he is not interested in foreign policy and leaves that to someone capable. 

[mongers]

BBC coverage hits a new low, something along the lines of anchor say "these results are not what the Clinton camparign would want".   

[garbon]

Well I guess it is good I've already fled the country.
