No. There really isn't anything else to do at this point. Just prepare for the storm.

No the opposite is likely to happen; Clinton should get the popular vote, but not the electoral.

So, what's the hold up? It's been at least an hour and Michigan isn't confirmed yet? Nothing on the other states too?

PA would be the state that makes the call here. Michigan is possible for Clinton, NH is within 0.1% but once PA is called (even if she wins PA it's still just the 269 scenario and she loses that) it's over.

So just wait for the last 2% from PA.

it's past 1 here. I just want some confirmation to go sleep lol

Imagine if Biden had decided to run and picked Sanders as a VP.

Biden understood exactly what was happening and was surrounded by people who refused to see or didn't understand it.

Cute. Except, wrong. Because clearly, after Hitler was "elected", we're not talking a Democracy anymore, do we now. Sidenote: please don't try to lecture me in german history.


You're obviously lacking in critical thinking skills, so I'm just going to stop here.



That doesn't make it less stupid of a statement.


I don't think you understand the statement you were originally responding to.

I enjoy seeing some Democrats go with "she wasn't progressive enough." It's a mirror image of what I've heard for a long time now!

And Obama is going to go scorched earth in lame duck. Incoming executive actions.

he would have utterly destroyed trump with decency and the same appeal to working class voters. Biden is thinking about what could have been, Obama is thinking how did we let clinton become the nominee, bernie is thinking what the fuck I sold out for this shit
Question.?

Is there any information about voter turnout, especially age groups?

I wonder if Bernie would've done better than Hillary. In all fairness though, Trump by "definition" was hard to beat, mainly because he justified his open racism etc by telling people "i'm just not politically correct" - and people swallowed that. There's a huge amount of people who reacted/voted based on that alone, regardless of his "policies".

I just wonder if the DNC fucked themselves by fucking Bernie.

Bernie bros fucked themselves by voting for third party canidates or not voting. And Hillary had 3 million more votes, so its not like they went against the will of the people. Plus Bernie has plenty of skeletons in his closet like his writing about sex and woman, he and his wife bakrupting a college, his praise for soviet russia or his honey moon there.


And as you can see, clearly the capacity to be attacked by opponents makes you fare worse than Clinton, to the point that it's unquestionable he would have lost his, what, 50+ lead in likeability.

And as you can see, no one attacking Bernie has made him look far more favorable than he would if Clinton hadn't used the kid gloves with him or what he would have faced in a general election.

At least as a straight white dude who can afford college this doesn't hurt me nearly as much as the Bernie bros who decided this election with their protest votes, so I get 4 years+ of telling them they did this to themselves.


It takes something special to lose to Trump. You can decide to blame it on the berniebros if that makes you feel better. I'm going to focus on the conscious choice to elect a candidate that's hated as much as Trump over a candidate that is perceived more positively than negatively.

I mean third party voters won Trump Florida Arizona Michigan and Wisconson and more, so yeah its their fault.

Trump voters won Trump. Every vote for a third party over Hillary is one more vote she needed to win. Every vote for Trump over Hillary is two more votes she needed to win. If we're gonna attack a group for the Trump victory then how about we look at the deplorable half of the country.


I agree completely. It's not Bernie supporters. It's not independent voters. People have the right to vote for whoever they want. The people who got Trump elected are the people who voted for Trump.

I'm showing 55k with 2% left unseen.

Republicans did win the Senate race in PA, confirming Senate in our hands.

It also looks more likely that Clinton will win the popular vote and Trump the Electoral College.

Expect more and more backlash against the Electoral College in the coming years.

It just was not possible. The whole system smells rigged when looking through the leaked DNC and Podesta emails. Behind the scenes, people were pushed around to make it so only Clinton could be the nominee.
