Has anyone heard anything about turnout? I am wondering if the polls were just a bit off, or if there was a) a big turnout of Trump voters and/or b) a low turnout of Clinton voters.

My friend is feeling the same way. She's a registered Native American, Pansexual - and living in Oklahoma. She's not happy.

My girlfriend and our friend are watching...I'm in the back playing video games. I literally can't handle this right now.
Quite a few of my Native American acquaintances are fairly unhappy at the moment. :(

In Oklahoma, I think voting can feel really disheartening for those of a more liberal mindset or for minorities when it comes to major elections. (It's certainly disheartening for me!)

Smaller local elections tend to be rather better in tone, with votes having more meaning and weight. (We had a mayor in my town once win by less than ten votes! )

But this presidential election just has me freaking out. The only thing making me feel better is that at least my state didn't go completely crazy on things pertaining to the referenda. :/

....Man imagine if Trump did end up winning...and somehow turned out to be an okay or good president by some insane cosmic joke?

That'd be worth a laugh.

And hey at least Obama offered a few words of comfort.

White male voters have turned out in big numbers for Trump and white women haven't gone heavily Clinton.

This is what I am following. They are doing very well at discussing both sides and are being more careful in calling states even with that They have Trump ahead  :o :o >:( >:(
Thing is it looks like Donny is doing much better with women in Florida that any one thought possible. Not with me!

Clinton is doing great in Philly. At least from the map I'm looking at, and what they're saying on MSNBC.

yes Trump took Florida according to Katy Couric at yahoo... 99.2% of voting was in...
Most of the other networks do not want to think about Trump wining Florida

YIKES!!!!

I think it's still too close to call. NBC has it Trump/Clinton 49/48. Not good, but with some results from the blue-leaning Miami are still outstanding, things could still change

I'm watching MSNBC, as well as this map.

Clinton got Cali, Washington, Oregon, and Hawaii!!!

She's got 209 to 172.

I have also been factoring in the west coast on the advice of a friend (mostly to disuade my anxiety, probably) and by my estimation she's barely leading him at just over 200. Still it's edgy.

Trump has NC now. But Clinton is still in the lead. 209 to 187.

Yeah, but the Pacific states were always her guaranteed big vote winners. With those called now she needs to get the remaining votes needed from somehwere, and it looks bad for her right now in the states that she needs to get her to 270.

Fivethirtyeight has three states 'too close to call' - PA, WI, and MI.  If I start hearing about chads again...

Again, a state she was supposed to win all along. PA is part of her "firewall". Right now I think it will all depend on WI and MI. If she loses FL, she might still make it with wins in MI and WI, but without those two...

PA is on a knife edge, if anything Trump is marginally ahead.
