Are any of you watching the betting odds on this??

Check this site out: http://fivethirtyeight.com/live-blog/20 ... tra_banner

It's basically a 50/50 run at this rate, and this site already knows the 5 states closing now are all going to her. He had been rotting through October at around a 15-25% chance. And now Trump is being called +29EC votes for Florida and he already got NC and OH which had he lacked any would have been death.

This is insane, he was figured to be dead within an hour and now people are talking about her path to victory instead of his narrow one. It's just so weird.

Then there's this. Google search for the results is showing republicans in the lead so far and more victories to come

Not bad, and all the fear media about the Senate going down, it's now down to a 20% chance of the GOP losing it. Which still given I think Clinton has the better shot of winning will really curb her behavior and force people to work together, or shut her down for 4 years. The next couple times the Senate few seats come up more of them will be DNC up to a threat meaning gridlock. She'll try and paint the right as evil and not willing to work with her hoping to scoop seats but if tonight is anything pissed off people won't buy it just as they clearly didn't buy it tonight as Trump should be boohooing about rigged elections and whining not conceding by now.

I'd agree with that with either ahem 'winner' on this one.

Want to get really nauseaus if you hate Trump? Vegas betting odds updated very often have him now at a 88% chance which is psycho.

The dissections tomorrow of who voted how are going to be very interesting. Take Wisconsin for instance, which has voted very different from how it went in 2012. I'm really interested in seeing what the voter demographics are like.

Well and then you'll have the morons who didn't vote that are complaining about who won. If you didn't vote you have no right to complain. I'm just glad I did early voting, especially since the one I did it at isn't bad and generally pretty quick. I'm still hopeful for whatever way it turns out that we get the people we need up there otherwise we need to flush it out. It's beyond nuts that the educational system, financials, and insurance are screwed up. Educational alone because no child left behind was a utter failure and I'm a result of that failure since I didn't recieve nearly as much help as i needed especially with grammar going through public school

I agree. Michigan is mind blowing too.

I think it's fair to say that Trump will take Wisconsin, but also you have Georgia, Arizona, Iowa, and most surely New Hampshire.

SO much for the so called deadly wall of FL and OH being the so called deciders. I think Trump stumping on lost jobs, banks and their supporters, bad trade, jobs going overseas, manufacturing eating it -- he made a HUGE dent in the union people. I'm seeing stuff so far where a GOP member would be lucky to pull 30% and he's pulling 50%+ among union types. I don't care for him but this is damned funny as it mocks the polls, mocks the media, mocks the whole damn stupid system and how it has been f'ing middle and middle lower class whites, blacks, hispanics, etc with the DNC giggling playing blame games. Seems someone finally got enough people to realize they were lied to as the cheeto messiah here should have in any other year been shut out long ago, shut out in the primaries no less. I think people are sick of it all including the class warfare playing people against people crap too.

Yeah, seeing the unions go for Trump has been mindblowing. How did the Democratic party lose the unions!? That's insane.
