The End is Nigh: US Presidential Election Thread Part XVI

[LemonMelon]

Just comparing figures to 2012, Clinton did really poorly compared to Obama in previously liberal areas. Underperforming all around.

gary johnson has had his name in every single result screen on CNN and they haven't mentioned his name one single time.

 

[Vlad n U 2]

Just an awful campaign by Clinton, no matter the result tonight. Should have never been close.

Pretty much. Wholly unconvincing. If I was a liberal, I wouldn't be too happy.

Crazy how the "let's go after Republicans who might not like Trump eschewing dog whistles instead of leftists who were rallied by Bernie Sanders" strategy didn't work at all.

I still think Hillary will eak this out

However bad of a candidate people seem to be saying she is, that is not the problem,
the problem
she's not a good person to be president because she really is corrupt

 

[LuckyNumber7]

What was feared... closet Trumps are coming out.

Part of the reason I didn't vote for her. Just not enthused by what she had on offer. Of course, had I been in a swing state I would have had my arm twisted into it.

Being in California like you my vote doesn't matter what I do take pride in saying how I did vote I take pride in not voting for George W. Bush
If somehow she wins you can take pride in saying you did not vote for her

Sorry friends, but it's time.

One of the worst things about this is that oregoropa or whatever his orgie name is will still not understand statistics.

Jesus. This is awful.

There's still a ways to go yet in counting up the ballots in places like Ohio and North Carolina, though, right? There's still around half or so of each state's reporting left to go? Could they still turn around?

Please, somebody tell me something good here, 'cause I'm really feeling queasy.

Poor Tom Brokaw left the house with his wife's glasses by mistake tonight.

Looks like it all comes down to Michigan at this point.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

Glorified hyperbole

C'mon, Michigan, then. *Crosses fingers*

Talk about a momentary sigh of relief. Now time to hold our breath for N.H., Michigan, and Wisconsin.

 

[BEAL]

Why are we holding our breath? I thought she was up huge in the polls for those states

I've been sitting here mentally screaming, "TURN BLUE DAMNIT!" to Virginia, Ohio, and North Carolina for the past hour. I wasn't kidding about feeling queasy earlier!

 

[kiwilad]

So the scenario where voters send a clear and brutal message to Trump's campaign of fear, hate and dishonesty, that's gone, right? Even if Clinton wins, that mandate of hope is gone? Or is it too soon for such pessimism?
