It'll be an east to west clean sweep for Hilary now. She'll get all the other swing states.

Quadrennially is the only time I care about county names in any state in the union.

For the love of god, TV networks, stop calling NY Clinton's home state. She's a Chicagoan through and through.

No surprises yet, but y'all can't be as confident as you were a few hours ago, can you?

Still seems way too early to change confidences one way or the other.

I think CNN is way off on Broward. 600k votes in, they say 16% reporting but the entire population of the county is 1.89 million.

Doesn't add up.

VA would be a pretty major breach in the much talked up firewall, right?

I wouldn't change sides or panic, but some people in here seemed to think it was a virtual guarantee.

Yeah I saw that. Still doesn't add up. 2012 turnout was 750k.
