If Evan McMullin wins Utah, it'll be a first since 1968 for a third party candidate to win an electoral vote.

Trump retook VA with 90% of the vote in.

Winning Cali would make it a struggle for him, though. It is very unlikely he will get any support there, so it will be giving Hillary a lead that will grow off of states she's most certain to win. Yea though, it depends on what she wins and loses alongside it.

It might, but she'll need more than California for that if she's going to hold onto the race.

I meant at this point it seems California would not be enough for Clinton to save her ass.

She needs more than just California. She just needs to win a few states, but I don't think the Midwest will be that friendly for Hillary.

^ Apparently she just won VA and is now at 122 Electoral votes. Cali and a few other states she's sure to win will throw her ahead for sure.

Trump is projected to win Montana.

edit

Someone cannot even be arsed to attend some states before the election doesn't deserve to win them (@ HRC of course).

I just don't see her winning without Michigan or Wisconsin.

So guys going from the number in the link i posted (here iti s again http://www.nytimes.com/elections/results/president), California by itself could add 55 points to any of the two sides?

 

[Philia]

Wow I had no idea so many seats were in California. It's usually been a Blue State so it's going to be a game changer for sure

California has 55EC. 17 more than Texas. Which has the 2nd highest EC count

Trump is projected to win Montana.

Yeah, I just noticed she's ahead of Virginia. That was shocking how she was almost losing the state.

I don't think she'll win Florida, and Ohio is obviously going for Trump. I didn't think this election would get insane.

--- Double Post Merged, Nov 9, 2016 ---

She definitely needs to win those states if she were to stay in the race.

 

[Philia]

She definitely needs to win those states if she were to stay in the race.

She's doing terribly bad in those 2 states. Florida and NC looks a lost case already.

Hillary Clinton is guaranteed 240 Electoral votes. She's most likely still going to win this election if she can pull off another twenty.

It really goes to show just how divided the views of what's best for the U.S is, and how huge the distrust against Hillary Clinton has gotten. I don't think anyone thought this election would go this way.

Trump is projected to win Missouri.

EDIT

Yup, she's at 122 Electoral votes now. She's pretty much guaranteed victory at this point if she secures CA and at least Ohio and VA.

 

[Philia]

Hillary projected to win New Mexico

 

[Kato756]

As I said, I don´t have much experience...

Could pennsylvania be a game changer? 200.000 dif with only 43% doesn´t look like much to me

CA, PA, OH and MO could change the game if she wins them. Hillary only needs to win 2 out of 3 swing states to win this election.

--- Double Post Merged, Nov 9, 2016, Original Post Date: Nov 9, 2016 ---

Yea, she's leading PA with 53% of the votes (45% of it in). She's got PA.

 

[Philia]

If Trump takes Michigan its all over for Clinton. She is not going to make up to 270 then.

 

[Kato756]

I have to sleep here on Brazil but gosh is this exciting.
Any ETA on when this will end?

 

[Philia]

Trump takes Ohio

 

[Onyx Darkmatter]

She's doing terribly bad in those 2 states. Florida and NC looks a lost case already.

For now, she is doing horribly in those 2 states. Will they get overturned by the time the results are in like Virginia? Guess we'll have to wait and see.

Sadly, that's the case. I am curious how things would've went if Sanders was the nominee. Granted, people might negatively view him as a "socialist", but at least he is favored by the people compared to Trump or Hillary.

 

[Styx]

Update:

• Michigan = Trump leads by 2.2% (35,242 votes)
• Wisconsin = Trump leads by 2.2$ (over 25k votes)
• Florida = Trump leads in Florida still
• Arizona = Trump has a 2.5% lead
• North Carolina = Trump leading by 3.6%
• NH = Trump winning by 2.9%
• Virginia = 87% in, HRC winning
• Colorado = HRC winning by 5.1%
• Iowa = HRC leading by over 19%
• Pennsylvania = HRC leads

People are talking that this could take all night and then some. Whoo.

That was my only real complaint with Sanders. He was a little too socialist, but I don't recall seeing anyone, not even Republicans, complain about much else. I think he would have done a better job than Hillary right now.
