Only way I might regret it is if Hillary loses Michigan by 1.

You may be killed and your vote "vaporized" if that occurs.

Oh, we can all quibble about the percentages, but your bottom line is that over 50% of the population either doesn't know and doesn't vote or does vote, but has no clue.......and I think that is unfortunately accurate.03-weeping

Hoping for a GOP Senate, but it'll probably turn Democrat just given how they only need to close the gap with five seats for a majority. House stays red and it's not even close. Johnson barely gets 5%.

I think she'll win by 3-4% nationally, somewhere between 300 and 340 electorally, but Republicans keep the senate by a narrow margin.

If she does win then hopefully the republicans keep both house and senate to keep her at least partially moderate for the first couple years. We are living with the repercussions of a left leaning president and a democrat house and senate with the Obamacare fiasco. Republicans would then pick up seats in Congress in the mid term election.

Just voted, not that long of a line.

Interesting convo between two older Hispanic ladies, in Spanish, one lady asked the other if she was going to vote, the other replied with a "why?"

That could well be the reason, but it just caught me by surprise because Hillary supposedly has this huge Hispanic block.

Kind of. I also expect a burst of black and millenial voters today in Philly, Detroit, and even Charlotte. Say what you will about Obama, but his stumping in swing states for Hilary will likely be doing wonders today. No standing president has ever stumped this much for a candidate (for better or worse, depending on your viewpoint on that) in US history.

I watched his speeches in Charlotte and New Hampshire, and even though I didn't vote for the guy in either election, he was impressive in crafting the message for those voter groups.

Win lose or lose, the GOP needs to start looking for a viable 2020 candidate tomorrow.

We had plenty. Perhaps the problem was that we had too many.

I've honestly always thought Trump would be a one-term president if he won. I think that would set Pence up nicely.
