2016 Presidential Election Thread

I voted for Trump at 6am today....there was a line waiting for people to vote....never seen it like this....ever! I work in a school and there was a line one hour long at the school today!

 

That's something I don't understand. Are there not enough polling stations?

 

It is freaky.

 

well some precincts are extending their vote closing times because of glitches during the day, which will prolong the final counts....and one is in the important state of North Carolina.

 

6 states have closed polls
Electoral count so far:
Trump 19
Clinton 23

270 needed to win.

 

Drudge:


NOW LET'S COUNT!!
GA CLINTON 28 TRUMP 71
FL CLINTON 47 TRUMP 50
NC CLINTON 35 TRUMP 65
NH CLINTON 45 TRUMP 51
OH CLINTON 00 TRUMP 00
VA CLINTON 42 TRUMP 53

I wouldn't be able to sleep at night if I had passed up an opportunity to help prevent that woman getting the most powerful job in the world. I won't be able to sleep tonight knowing that her evil will be unhindered. All those holier than thou Republicans who rolled over for Obama will aid and abet her just to make themselves appear moderate.

 

We are watching here in Ireland and we are praying for you all too and I suppose for the world really as it will affect the majority of it. Never thought I'd say this when it all started but I hope Trump wins. And I hope out of 2 bad choices he is the lesser bad.

 

We will get what we deserve. The same goes within the Church. God will not reward a country, a church, that is not concerned with the truth. I think Pedro Regis' latest message say's it all.

 

It is razor close everyone. Please pray!
Trump could pull it out.

 

Same here Martina.

 

"...will not come from the political process." I pray Charlie is right and that would make Trump the winner tonight.

 

Thank you Martina

 

Everyone seems to update their maps at different times and speeds. I'm following the one on NYTimes: http://www.nytimes.com/?WT.z_jog=1&hF=t&vS=undefined . Trump has led in electoral votes the entire time. If he wins all of the states he's currently leading in on this map, he will need 1 more electoral vote to win. However, a lot of these states are very close: FL, NH, VA, NC. We'll see what happens, but it appears plausible at this point that he could win.

 

It appears that Trump may win Michigan which will be a big upset.

 

Michigander here! We are cautiously optimistic.

 

CNN's coverage of the count is very good. It's still very close and there's a long way to go yet.
