Would certainly think that there would be more violence by "losers" if Trump wins than if he loses, but YMMV.

WRT taxes, I agree that it sets a dangerous precedent. Trump knew, though, that it wasn't a huge deal, wasn't going to sway anyone, and he is still light years more "transparent" than his opponent.

Well, Election Day is here. Protip for election watchers, pay attention to Pennsylvania and Florida. They're must-wins for Hillary and Trump respectively. Hillary's been holding steady in PA, while Florida's a tossup, but this is an unusual election with a lot of uncertainty built in. Beware of margins for error. If they each pickup their must wins, but not their opponents, we could be in for a long night.

On the Senate front, we're looking at PA, Indiana, Missouri, and NC. Particarly Missouri.

A family member asked me where she could track stuff during the day and I had to break it to her that nothing matters until around 8-9pm EDT.

I'll go on record and say that DJT covers a +30.5 EV spread, but I don't think he'll win.

Hillary can keep PA, lose Florida, Ohio, NC, and New Hampshire, and she'd still beat Trump.

If Clinton loses all of those her chances of winning are sharply lower actually Deo. She'd have to rely on Iowa / Arizona / Alaska and those aren't great in her court.

These are all states where Hillary's got a greater than 75% chance to win according to the 538 forecast, which is the most hesitant on her chances. The exception is Nevada, where she appears to be winning based on the early vote stats, and in 2012 like 70% of Nevada voted early.

Voted in Pennsylvania today! I feel like I made a difference.

But watching the election coverage right now is terrifying.

I know right. If nothing else Trump would be far and away the least stable individual to ever be in charge of any nations nuclear arsenal. Imo he is exactly stupid enough to (for example) take North Korea's standard rhetoric personally and escalate a war in the region.

EDIT the first: To clarify no I do not think President Trump heralds imminent nuclear war. I just think if any world leader who ever potentially could've was going to though, you'd put money on it being this guy.

So did I, but in CA lol so I got to vote on issues of earthshattering importance like:

1. Should pornstars wear condoms, because filming people fucking is a very infrastructure-intensive industry that simply can't move anywhere else if the weird "everyone is now a porn policeman" law goes through

2. Whether we should mandate reusable bags or not because charging ten cents per paper bag IS AN EVIL PLOT BY THE GROCERY INDUSTRY TO MAKE FAT STACKS OF CASH (why yes these props were sponsored by plastic bag manufacturers why did you ask)

3. THE WHEELS OF JUSTICE FOR THE DEATH PENALTY SPIN TOO SLOWLY SO LET'S REMOVE ALL THE PROTECTIONS AND SPEED THAT MOTHERFUCKER UP ALSO WE WON'T EXECUTE ANYONE BY MISTAKE DESPITE ASKING YOU TO REMOVE THE PROTECTIONS THAT ENSURE THIS AND WE HOPE YOU DON'T NOTICE

4. That we stop pissing around with "medical" marijuana and just admit that most of the people in CA have medical licenses for the chronic condition known as "sobriety"

Also, I'm enjoying the fact that being a demagogic charlatan is apparently not sufficient to get Mondale stomped in America, and instead we're praying desperately that Michigan State Wolverine fans don't fuck it up for the rest of us (they will).

Queue up your stock market orders for the inevitable faceplant the markets do when Trump wins the White House.

I'd like for it to be said that, when Florida sinks into the sea because of global warming, they voted for it.
