***OFFICIAL ELECTION DAY THREAD***

This has been a lot of fun either way.  I love it being a nail biter. I am going for the 269 tie while waiting on a congressional electoral vote to push it over.

Also in that 254, Fox has called Wisconsin for Trump.

If he wins Wisconsin, it's over.  However, should note that Fox is the only one to call the state so far for him.

I'm going to go ahead and say it. Night's over. Trump will be our next President. 

[cptau 169]

2 democrat electors in Washington state have said they will not vote for Clinton.   Both are Bernie people.     

That would be an interesting outcome

Yes, she will. Let the doomsayers say what they will. Next 4 years may be tough with either candidate. However, mistakes are meant to be built upon.

California raw numbers still haven't come in.  He may well win the electoral but lose the popular vote a la 2000 Bush.

Never got this far in my mind.

My 13 year old daughter is sitting next to me watching this and I'm spoiled to be able to share this historic moment with her.  Either way you lean, tonight has been a historic night.

The NYT has maybe the best online coverage IMO and they jumped on the momentum shift waay early. Was really shocking bc they went from 80% plus for Clinton to 90% plus chance to win for Trump in basically 2.5 hours.
