Official presidential election results thread - Nov. 8, 2016

Tennessee for Trump. It might be one of the highest margins of any of the Trump states.

In down-ticket news, it looks like Jim Cooper (d 5th district) is in big trouble. This might be one the pundits did not expect. Of course Stacy Ries Snyder is the daughter of the chairman of the Davidson County (Nashville) Republican party. I think they were all in the Bush camp before the primaries.

Called for Portman. This gives a good chance for the GOP to keep the senate

Actually it doesn't much bearing on the outcome. Portman was leading by double digits in every poll.

Senate is still a toss up right now with Dems as a slight favorite.

holy $#@! FL is tight

Looking like 2000 all over again.

North Carolina is close. You can thank migration for that one...

 

[staerker]

wapo has trump in the lead by 28 votes in FL!

Can confirm. 14k now

 

[otherone]

Broward is 0 percent in?

 

[Brian4Liberty]

Rubio wins. Neocon RINOs rejoice, Marco is bummed out.

I hereby officially begin my "I told you so Trumptards" routine.

He'll lose either NC or FL (or both) and that'll be that.

And a lot of large colleges and universities concentrated in the Raleigh-Durham area. Charlotte had a police shooting.

This is the bathroom state, too.

You told us Hillary would cheat and win the election?

 

[John F Kennedy III]

Trump up 51-44.

Nah he told you if he does lose you'll all claim it was rigged. If he doesn't, you won't.

 

[Lovecraftian4Paul]

What's the deal with Virginia? Trump seems to be way overperforming there with more than half the vote in. Polls totally missed that if it holds.

Shame North Carolina and Ohio are looking so shit.

 

[staerker]

Broward is 0 percent in?

Yup. Waiting to see the rest of the state's results before posting doctored numbers. Or waiting for the go from Hillary, whichever comes first.

I told you Trump is a retard and would lose.

 

[Origanalist]

Google has it 60 to 44.

FBI + DOD central. Email blowback?

Thanks, but they have Broward at 0% too. What gives? Trump up now by almost 100k. If he can run up a 200k vote lead it should be enough to hold of the late surge in Miami.

 

[Superfluous Man]

I'm not a Johnson fan really (although he's light years better than Trump or Clinton). But I am glad to see the LP doing as well in the popular vote as they appear to be doing so far. I didn't think I'd be happy to see that. But now that it's happening, I am.

Of course the 5% that some people were shooting for has been unrealistic for quite some time, even if it would have been doable had they taken a different approach from the beginning.
