RunInRed 16,404 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 This is kinda cool ... Quote VoteCastr, which aims to break Election Day’s "traditional information embargo," went live on Vice News, promising initial estimates based on early voting in Florida, Colorado, Nevada and Iowa. Those are four of the eight states, representing 102 electoral votes, where VoteCastr is concentrating its data-crunching. More results, from more states, are to be made available in rolling fashion throughout the day, on Vice News and on Slate.com. http://www.bloomberg.com/politics/articles/2016-11-08/your-hour-by-hour-guide-to-following-obsessively-on-election-day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad_ATX 13,654 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Well the call on North Carolina will be especially late tonight. North Carolina's Durham County requests extra voting time due to glitch From CNN's Devon Sayers: The Durham County Board of Elections has unanimously recommended that voting should be extended in the county by 90 minutes after a glitch in the electronic voter check system. Because of the issue, the county was forced to switch to paper roll books, Durham County Board of Elections spokesperson Briana Khan told CNN.

TitanTiger 20,472 Posted November 8, 2016 Author Share Posted November 8, 2016 Good for you, Dubya: Quote Contrary to what Rush Limbaugh claims, George W. Bush and Laura Bush did not vote for either Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump, a spokesperson for the former president said Tuesday. Instead, the Bushes left that section blank and only voted for Republican candidates in down ballot races. http://money.cnn.com/2016/11/08/media/george-w-bush-rush-limbaugh-hillary-clinton/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
