I'm amazed at how close so many races are.  Nice to see after all the projections with Clinton winning with such a huge amount of the electoral college.  I have some serious hope that Clinton might not win.

They are starting to consider that Florida may go to Trump.

.. Its a wait and see, thats for sure... Definitely a long night ahead.. - Anyway.. it does seem that a majority of the undecided/undeclared are swinging right. Good news for The Don, but not over yet by a long shot.

At the moment they have Trump projected to win by 54%.

Around 4:30pm on Tuesday November 8, Democratic Underground was hacked, apparently by a supporter of Donald Trump. This person clearly knew what they were doing, and despite our best efforts we have not yet been able to resolve the issues caused by the hack.

We do not believe that any member data has been compromised. And we are confident that donor data has not been compromised because that information is handled by PayPal and never passes through to our servers.  But at this time we are unable to bring our discussion forum online.

The hack was clearly aimed to cause maximum disruption on our busiest night of the year, and we deeply regret that we won't be able to spend election night with our great community of members. We ask for your patience while we continue to work to fix this problem, and while we do not have a time frame we will do our best to get DU back online as soon as possible.

If anyone has any information about the hack, or has knowledge that might help us to fix it, please feel free to contact us: admin@democraticunderground.com

We will be posting updates on Facebook and Twitter.

We are deeply disappointed that this has happened. But we'll be back.

They always shut down DU during an election. It is unusual they shut down early.

1/3 vote in 35,000 vote lead for Trump in Michigan. 28,000+ ahead in Wisconsin. He’s going to win Florida, up by 100,000+ still.
He’s way ahead still in NC with over 80% in, Georgia he should win and NH he is expanding his lead to 10,000+ up.

They got Trump winning PA. I disagree. Meh... what do I know. I think it is going to be close all over and I really don't think this will be over tonite.  Trump is doing better than I thought he would.

Just checked the NY times and they got it down to 284 Trump.

I'd give about anything to see the meltdown in real-time...  even if it ends up going Clinton, watching them pull their hair out is something to miss. Damn hackers...

The media does not know what they are talking about. I still think it will be very close.

He's been predicting a 540 Electoral win for Hillary.
