U.S. Presidential Election Day Megathread [Official]

[Theoris]

What's with all the pence fearmongering? Surely he can't be worse than Bush.

Probably not worse than Bush, but he's certainly not much better.

[mr-pacwoman]

Well, I imagine the Klan is very happy tonight.

Congrats Trump supporters, you own what happens for the next 4 years!

I just hope the fully Republican controlled government does cause too much damage before the midterms. 2018 is certainly going to be an interesting year.

The Supreme Court would just put the matter back into the hands of the individual states again.


There are other legal ways to reside in the US.

Which means its back to be repealed in the majority of the state.

[Bullettime]

The Supreme Court would just put the matter back into the hands of the individual states again.


There are other legal ways to reside in the US.

Which means it goes back to being illegal in half the country. Fun.

[Sykol]

Wisconsin is his. It's officially over now.

[Glorious Leader]

No, they overestimated the intelligence of Americans.

Trump's support comes from non-college educated whites. He is getting destroyed with college-educated voters. Also, Hillary is winning the popular vote by around 1.3%.

So really, what's happening is a millions of uneducated morons who live in swing states got duped by lying hypocrite Trump.

And millions more remained apathetic

[breadisfunny]

It's not premature. Hes won. No arguments about it. Its been safe to say for hours now. However, this late. its for sure. Nothing is going to suddenly change it unless the electoral college in every state that hasn't voted goes hillary.

then why isn't the media calling it? remember how everyone thought clinton had this in the bag?

WI Just rung in with Trump at 276.

[kail]

wait what my math has him at 264 with pennsylvania wisconsin still has a decent amount of vote left. where you getting 277 from?

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/ele...ral/president/

278, he just got a 1 vote district. It's done.

then why isn't the media calling it?

My question exactly.

[Jimmy Thick]

he hasn't won yet.

Yes he has, it's over. Just not official. Trump will win Wisconsin, it's impossible for Clinton to win it.

/end.

I will be celebrating tonight with a large hot chocolate with whipped cream and to honor our new president I will dust the top with red sprinkles.

AP just confirmed Trumps win.

[paralleluniverse]

Your personal beliefs on Obamas merits don't put weigh the fact he screws up so much while in office that a majority views to be true.

Obama has a 55% approval rating, higher than Reagan.

[Bethrezen]

The choices have been made. CONGRATS MAGA 2016.

How hard is it to get a weed card?

They crossed the streams.

"Fast, modify that RNG!"

You mean like those polls, which were also based on 'actual data', predicting a landslide Clinton victory?

C'mon man, don't fall for stats criticizing the plans of a presidential candidate in the run up to an election. grain of salt hehe

Yeah, those things are entirely the same... I would bet a lot of money that most people who vote haven't participated in any polls, because the majority of the american people work a lot, and what little spare time they have, they wouldn't spend on polls. And the majority of working people probably voted for Trump because he is seen as anti-establishment, where Hillary is 100% pro-establishment.

People voted for Trump in the hope that things will change, let's see what happens.

Edit: Also, it is such a huge shame that Bernie was "sabotaged" as much as he were, because for any sane and educated person he was by far going to be the best president among the three.

[spinner981]

I'm dying of laughter now:

That's not even the whole thing. Check it out now: http://www.nytimes.com/elections/forecast/president

He's been sitting at >95% since 11 PM.

[Gangresnake]

It's officially done

[Dextroden]

American politics is so personal, it's almost like policies are an afterthought. Quite odd.

You don't win by having superior positions here. You win by convincing people your opponent is worse.

Hillary Clinton failed on what should have been a slam dunk. She is shamed forever.

[Theodarzna]

Quite the opposite.

They've explained they greatly underestimated the non-college educated white male voter.

Hillary loss the non-college educated white female vote too I suspect.

[Zantos]

then why isn't the media calling it?

Why would they? Trying to drag out the views by keeping people interested. Its over. Done. Hes won. Hes leading in everything they haven't called.

And they called it right as I typed this. Hes at 276 at the time of my typing.
