Here's Jane & Bernie Sanders Voting For Hillary Clinton & Loudly Hoping For Donald Trump's Demise

Why does everyone seem to think there would be someone elected?

No one other than some analysts and betting people are calling no result right now. It just seems surreal to think that an election could happen uncontested under these conditions. I'm also not bullish about courts/congress remedying the claims.

Vermont goes to Clinton

Indiana Trump

Kentucky Trump

[Morty]

Why does everyone seem to think there would be someone elected?

Because we've had the distinct feeling that Hillary was earmarked for the job since before the primaries? That's how it is with me. I'd never considered a non-result before. Would throw a spanner in the works. I'm expecting she'll win early and by a comfortable margin, and any quibbles about legitimacy of the vote won't get much oxygen or cause too many problems. But then, I don't exactly have my finger on the American pulse.

One person was killed and three others were wounded in a shooting Tuesday near two polling locations in Azusa, California.

Doesn't appear to of targeted the polling station though

[Luther Blissett]

There was a shooting at the polls in Azusa, CA, killing one and wounding a few people.

It's been very quiet in ground zero for Trumpist "Vote Protectors" and people have been looking pretty carefully.

On edit: looks like General Patton beat me to it. Doesn't notify you if posts have already made it onto the second page.

"allegedly hacked" - right. Haven't watched that video, but I've long been convinced that DU is a spook-run Skinner Box.

[seemslikeadream]

yea they were hacked...it's being talked about it elsewhere....but they were back up awhile ago


down again

well this is kinda fun

[Novem5er]

Well, it looks like my Florida is making things exciting once again. It's almost 9pm and 91% are in:

Trump 4,305,026
Clinton 4,193,316
Johson 189,763
Stein 58,318

BUT the news is saying that some Clinton strongholds are still reporting in (that missing 9% of votes so far) and she is winning by huge margins in places like Miami.

[seemslikeadream]

yea Broward ...right?

[Novem5er]

Broward, exactly. She's winning Broward by 30+ margin and they are only at about 45% counted. With a half million more votes to come in from BROWARD ALONE, it could flip the script and give Hillary the win.

[PufPuf93]

CNN has Trump with 49.3 and Clinton with 47.6 now - 93% in.

The internet is being quite sticky for me.

edit: that is Florida

Long lines reported at polling stations.

I've just seen some claims of "malfunctioning" vote machines on a Trumpite twitter account. Some of those claims are at least plausible-looking. It would be worth knowing if any analogous claims are being made by people trying to vote for Clinton, e.g. that the machine kept switching their vote to Trump.

If the machines are truly malfunctioning, then that's already bad enough. But if the malfunction always or nearly always works to the advantage of X rather than Y, then that's prima facie evidence of deliberate manipulation.
