[POLL] United States Presidential Elections 2016

[Sanji Himura]

Here is how the GTP Call Center is going to operate this year. I will not accept a call that is solely based on Exit polling data. I will accept, however, calls based on exit polling and early returns. Furthermore, I will not make a call on a state that straddles two time zones except when the whole state is closed for voting (I have listed those states in the OP.) Finally, I will color the state red if it is won by Donald Trump, Blue if it is won by Hillary Clinton, Green if it is won by any of the third party or independent candidates.

Per the 12th amendment, it will be the Newly elected congress that will determine the President/Vice President if no one reaches the required 270 electoral college president.

best way to sum up this election is the suicide booth from futurama. "You have chosen: slow and horrible"

 

[Grayfox]

The classic sideshow bob laugh.

I have a laugh very similar to it

The problem with US polling seems to be the lack of sausage sizzle. That's the only time you see long lines at Australian polling booths.

 

[Sanji Himura]

36% of early exit polling say that they want a strong leader This is double from 2012.

CNN reporting registed republicans have a slight lead in Colarado exit polling.

Edit: This looks like really bad news for Hillary going by this exit poll.

In case anyone was looking for some incentive to vote for Trump. Here's some celebrities that say they will leave but really won't.

"Sexmonster" sounds like a New Retro Wave song with samples from low-budget (even by '80s standards) horror movies.

 

[Dennisch]

That's just great. Just a shame that he didn't go for a second try.

No, please no. I'd gladly welcome Stewart and Cranston, possibly even Shumer, but you guys can keep the rest. Especially Dunham.

 

[Tornado]

You don't want Samuel L. Jackson?

You don't want Samuel L. Jackson?

Ah crap, knew I forgot someone, but really didn't want to have to re-open that tab and subsequently deal with the ad infestation.

Sorry, Sammy!

Al Sharpton will leave? That's incentive enough right there to vote Trump.

As for waiting lines, I don't recall ever having a significant wait to vote.

 

[Tornado]

The only lines I had was the line telling people what voting district I was in, and that was true the last two times as well.

 

[ryzno]

Trump up by 40% in the first 2 states reporting at 3% overall counted.

 

[Dylan]

You can follow the election live here. map is updated automatically as votes are reported...
Trump leading as of current, but more results will start coming in around 7 est.

Edit: This looks like really bad news for Hillary going by this exit poll.

How could that be interpreted as bad news for either candidate? It says nothing about which candidate the respondent is referring to.

Methinks you're projecting a little...

And have to endure those idiots that hand out those pamphlets that say Vote for X
The sausage sizzle is the only good thing about the dictatorship voting in australia

ABC News Projections:

Kentucky: Trump
Indiana: Trump
Vermont: Clinton

Other states are still too early to call.

 

[TRGTspecialist]

Only the US (and my ever expanding inner nerd) could make numbers this exciting.

 

[Sanji Himura]

The GTP Election Desk is willing to call the following:

Indiana for Trump
Vermont for Clinton

The GTP Projection desk is reserving the call of Kentucky for Trump due to the fact that the call was made using exit polling.

 

[BobK]

I don't really understand following the voting/polls/results this closely. We'll know tomorrow morning (probably, heh) anyway. I'll find some game to play or something, instead.

 

[Tornado]

I don't really understand following the voting/polls/results this closely. We'll know tomorrow morning (probably, heh) anyway. I'll find some game to play or something, instead.

But according to the right and/or left, if Hilary and/or Trump win we might not live to tomorrow.

 

[Sanji Himura]

The GTP Decision Desk is now willing to call the following:

Kentucky for Trump

This decision is now reflective of the early returns and exit polling.

 

[Grayfox]

I doubt trump jr will get any kind of punishment for tweeting his vote due to him being famous

 

[Milouse]

French new channel LCI is reporting a gun shot in California outside a vote place. But i saw no mention of that on CNN yet.

Edit: with 1 dead and 3 wounded.

 

[mustafur]

How could that be interpreted as bad news for either candidate? It says nothing about which candidate the respondent is referring to.

Methinks you're projecting a little...

Because Clinton does better with people that Dislike the opponent, where as Trump supporters are more happy with their choice.

Why you attacking me, I care little about either(and made this clear too many times already).

ABC News Projections:

Kentucky: Trump
Indiana: Trump
New Hampshire: Clinton

Other states are still too early to call.

you mean Vermont, New Hampshire will be super close.

 

[Northstar]

I highly doubt anybody will get in trouble over that regardless of whether or not they're famous. It's just too hard to police stuff like that.
