The Politics Thread

Has Miami-Dade been counted yet?

I don't even know what to say about this. 

Where's Vee to talk us down? I'm scared now too

The f-u-c-k-e-r is going to take this.

Vee is watching the numbers and not losing his mind in public.

 

It's certainly closer and tenser than anyone wants right now, but I still think we'll take it.

Damn you Ohio

I am honestly shocked at this point. I honestly never believed it would be this close. This says so much about my fellow Americans and not in a good way

 

It's happening around the world. Maybe we were naive to think the same wouldn't be true here. Every 2-4 years the far right vote springs into action and does better than expected. I think that Hillary's people knew and tried their best, but Trump, as frightening as he is to many (including me), is a blank slate to many others, or someone they don't take seriously. I can't tell you how many times I've seen people say it doesn't matter if he wins because sensible people will tell him what to do. It's a fantasy land but many want to live in a fantasy. 

Too much positive news for Trump. 

Apparently that dumbass Ayotte is in the lead in NH-Sen. And McCrory in NC. Ugh. Disgusting. He makes me sick to my stomach.

Anyone who voted 3rd party, may they burn in Hell right now. 

Not that it matters, but as thin-skinned as he is (and he's way too thin-skinned), Nate Silver had a good point all along.
