US News & Politics

BREAKING: This isn't a joke.  Canada's immigration website on to legally become a Canadian website has been shut down, probably to avoid the rush of liberals ready to leave, but won't. 

International stock markets are on the collapse in Asia, but in Europe they are up.  Future US markets are down almost 700 points.   This is a repeat of Brexit.

It has been a joy doing this with you today, MasterX and I want to thank everyone else who commented, followed, and partook in our conversation.

Right back at you, Rainy.  Expect civil unrest with Trump's victory tonight if he wins.  Watch places like Chicago or places with large urban areas.  Expect the media to blame Trump on everything they can tomorrow.

Watching live from Hillary Clinton's HQ, and there are tears.

Calling Wisconsin for Donald Trump. 

Michigan is still too close to call. 

[RainySunshine]

Trump has 244 electoral votes.  Clinton has 209 currently according to the New York Times. 

[MasterXtreme]

This is the beginning of a new start for America.  It will be interesting to see what Trump and the people will do now.

[MasterXtreme]

So Rainy, pull up your electoral map you made.  Lets compare.

Trending on Twitter now #United States of Anxiety.... give me a break social media...

So I have been going over the latest polls which on average only show Hillary up 2 points at the very most.  So I gave her that generous 2% but also included Trump's continuing surge of 6% points almost a day.  I also included partially the closet Trump supporters which will be about 3-6%.  For this map, I made it 4%.  So this is what I came up with.



It is a closer then my map before, but again, I am just using my own political studies and statistics degree and judgement on this.  In no way is it official.  It might even be optimistic looking compared to other maps out there.  One thing I don't show is three swing states or states that break down electoral votes such as Maine.  The three states that will likely go to Trump based off early polling/votes are Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota.  So that would change this map up too.

My previous map

Here is my map.  I leaned it toward the left, because I was not expecting the midwest to vote so conservatively.  It is the land of unions, and yet, the people didn't listen to their Unions. 

[MasterXtreme]

Your map is almost exactly right, Rainy.  You only got Michigan, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire and Wisconsin wrong so far.  That is impressive. 

NYT is now predicting Trump will win with over 300 electoral votes.  Exact opposite of what they were saying this morning.

[RainySunshine]

The election isn't over, but it is looking most likely like Trump will win everyone. 

[MasterXtreme]

Nevada is now Hillary Clinton. 
Trump is now ahead one point in Michigan.  He needs just 16 points, and Michigan would be that 16 points. 

[mysteryserpent]

It's a lot closer than I thought it'd be. I'm not certain who will win but whichever person it is, I don't see immediate changes happening until every other position is filled.

What changes do you guys think either Clinton or Trump would do during the first year they are in power?

[RainySunshine]

With Clinton we know what she plans to do.  It would be more of Obama's legacy, whether you like it or not.

Trump has said he will end a lot of the bad trade deals, cute taxes, and help business, grow the military, and work on our border. 

So that is what we have.  If you want to be up to date, read our pages back., MS. 

[MasterXtreme]

We are still waiting for the next batch of votes, but right now, New Hampshire is too tough to call, and so is Michigan.

If Trump pulls off the victory in Michigan, he will win the election.

I can not thank you enough for your coverage, MasterX and Rainy.  You two have been excellent.  I keep checking back on you guys.

I did not expect this election to be like this at all.  Trump is on the surge.
