My prediction as to how tomorrow night will play out.

-----Now, this is all a nice layout with maps and stuff the MichDem primitive devised, and it can't really be dragged over here without going through a lot of time and trouble; one should go to the link above to see it.-----

12. I wonder if we'll be able to call Florida by 9:15...

I'm worried there is gonna be some funny business going on and it might be close or there might be problems at the polls (caused by our fellow Americans, the ones who are alt-right.)

3. Minnesota closes at 8 (central)

but there is over half a million absentee ballots that can't be counted until the polls close. And that assumes the inperson voting is mostly done at 8 (if you're in line at 8 you still get to vote). And once all the ballots have been fed into the machines, the election judges in each precinct will need to balance ballots cast against the number of people who signed in.

Usually this doesn't take so long but they've never dealt with this number of absentees before.

It could take a while to get our returns.

On the bright side, the weather across the state will be excellent and that usually gives the DFL an edge.

5. Seems like it could happen.

Important to remember that he may win more states, but it's the electoral that matters.

7. I think Ohio will go Hillary

Call it gut, but the ground game here has been incredible

9. You're not alone. A guest on The Last Word with Lawrence O'Donnell gave his final prediction.

Apparently he's done a number of projections in the past, and this one is his final for this year. He predicted
Hillary 322

The Con 216

He's a professional at this but I'm going to disagree. I still believe Hillary will take AZ and maybe a few more. Add AZ Hillary would end with 333.

There are just too many groups of people is so many categories that the Con as disparaged, I believe he will be slaughtered tomorrow night by the voters.

Uh, cautionary note to the sanitary napkin primitive.

It's not as if Messalina Agrippina hasn't disparaged many groups of people in many categories.

Think about it.

10. I Too Am Upbeat About Ohio

People just need to get out and freaking vote. Way more of us then them.

We need to take the Senate. The House will be a project due to gerrymandering to a ridiculous level. But..if people would take mid term elections seriously we could make serious progress.

We need to not only change our method of voting we need to get fair districting....both with help from neutral international folks.

11. Probably pretty close... and essentially over when Florida is called.

No realistic path for Trump without Florida. I think Florida will go to Hillary by 9 p.m. ET. due to the Latino wave. All over but the counting at that point. Just academic.

13. very nice work,

if FL, OH or NC turns blue its over.

I think we may still have a chance at OH, AZ and even GA.

15. In 2012 VA took a long time to get the final results

I think the election was called while Obama was still behind in VA

16. it's nevada that killed him!

You know, I have to compliment the MichDem primitive on his display; it shows a care and trouble most primitives posting on Skins's island don't bother with, demonstrating his respect for his audience.

Like cousin nadin, most of them just splat shit on the computer screen; they don't care what it looks like, that it looks poorly or sloppy or messy or unaesthetic.

It could take a while to get our returns.

And to gin up the number of votes Hillary needs to win the state.

I wonder if the DUmmie understands the expression "It will be a cold day in hell..."

[jukin]

"neutral international folks" = "countries that are at least 80% for hillary"

These over-confident threads from the DUmmies are highly entertaining.     They were so cocky...not one thread ever expressed any doubt, maybe just nervousness, but never doubt.  Of course, that would have gotten them banned.  That's what happens when you envelop yourself in a bubble.  You don't see it coming. 

[Carl]

I honestly don`t get something.
I know the DUmp are just a bunch of mewling,ignorant cretins and I hope their every waking moment from here until hell is misery for them.
I never watched Morning Joe until today to enjoy the media misery and all of them were saying "How did we miss this coming?"

Good grief people,I had posted the RCP polling data numerous times here and it was clear that President elect Trump was doing very well in Florida,Ohio,North Carolina and that Pennsylvania and the upper midwest states were in the mix.
Did they just not believe them?
It was right there before their very eyes.
