How would any Illinois ballot not have that on there?

QUOTE (JenksIsMyHero @ Nov 8, 2016 -> 04:35 PM) I sure hope GWB told the reporter that. Otherwise how would he know? He did the patented Trump Peak at the ballots! I'm sure he told the reporter(s). Bush Sr. said he wasn't voting Trump months ago.

more Florida turnout results

Trump team is attempting to claim victory in the lawsuit in Nevada despite being literally laughed out of court.

RE: voting machine miscalibration, here's an example of it happening to Obama in 2012 (Obama did not have a twitter meltdown or threaten or file a lawsuit over it) http://www.msnbc.com/politicsnation/machin...e-obama-one-rom

this one has a check! I do appreciate that the responses to Trump's tweet are just openly laughing at his incompetence and not pepe bots

how did I not notice the lack of checkmark. shameful.

QUOTE (JenksIsMyHero @ Nov 8, 2016 -> 03:30 PM) You've been following this stuff more than me, but why does more turnout = better for Hillary? I get that the Latino vote is coming out big this election, but you or someone else posted numbers of increased latino voters from some state the other day and it also showed an increase in white voters too (the number of which doubled all minority increases combined). Generally speaking, more turnout=better for Democrats in elections. Broward county specifically is the Ft. Lauderdale area and is heavily Democratic. I think it was me who posted the EV breakdowns for Florida. Based on both the racial and the party affiliation, we can expect the new minority voters including hundreds of thousands of extra Latino/a voters to be very heavily in favor of Clinton with the white voters more evenly split, maybe leaning slightly Trump depending on gender breakdown. Overall, Democrats came out of Florida EV with just a hair over 90k more votes based purely on partisan ballot responses, but "unaffiliated" responses were way, way up and those were heavily tilted towards new Latino/a registrations. Asian-Americans in Florida also doubled their vote numbers, and that's not a good sign for the white nationalist candidate either. Lots of guesswork from just these numbers and we won't know for certain until the actual votes are counted, but things are looking really good for Clinton in Florida in both early and day-of voting.

lol duped, I feel quite dumb right now

good lord am I a dummy for falling for an obvious parody account

QUOTE (bmags @ Nov 8, 2016 -> 03:11 PM) The turnout numbers have been surprising. I would be interested to see how things like facebook / internet positively affect turnout as almost all major sites have a "go vote" message. My android phone has been bugging me for a few days about voting.

And some PA/Philly news

QUOTE (Brian @ Nov 8, 2016 -> 03:01 PM) It's because they already selected Hillary on that ballot. I'm assuming that was explained to them in a reply. Nope, as that sarcastic keyboard response video implies, it's because they weren't hitting the spot you need to press. On that style of voting machine, you need to press the number in the corner, not just mash it randomly.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Nov 8, 2016 -> 02:09 PM) If true, Florida's probably in the bag for Clinton and with that the election. The interesting thing to watch there will be the senate race with Rubio. More Florida votes
