Still nothing from Broward, a county in which Clinton will gain a ~200,000 vote differential.

From 538's live blog:

Quote:
Preliminary exit poll results suggest that we may see a record gender gap among voters in Virginia — a 19-point advantage for Clinton among women, 57-38 percent. It’s not too much of a leap to suggest that this might be connected to Trump’s treatment of women — 62 percent of women in the state said they were “they were bothered a lot by Trump’s treatment of women.” In North Carolina, Clinton appears to have won among women by 13 percent, which ABC News says appears to be another record.

Maybe if NASCAR didn't have barriers between the crash and the spectators it would be more accurate...the splash damage from this could really impact us. Especially if Trump wins and goes full-Furher (you never go full-Furher...ask Austria)

Very disingenuous coverage from CNN. They are over emphasizing the rural vote and marginalizing the urban vote. Also, Clinton is trending better than Obama in almost every district they have covered, which likely means a win.

Good for her. She previously served the people of Naboo quite well.

No numbers in yet from the very large Fulton County (Atlanta area) in Georgia, which Obama won by 30. Romney won the state by 8.

Early returns are disturbing, but probably due to rural areas being counted first.

It's funny, but if the guy I was voting for was described as appealing to mostly uneducated white citizens, I would reconsider my vote.

No this is good. Give the Trumpers hope and then rip it away and let them rot in their caves.

The generic Google election counter has Trump up by ~600K votes now.

She will need a lot more than that. They better have gotten a huge amount of latin voters to the polls. Trump is up about 125,000 and the panhandle vote is coming in soon.

I think Clinton wins this handily, but I also think there are tens of thousands who are now employed in the media who will ride this spectacle out for months (or more).
