The Republicans had candidates running for U.S. Senator and U.S.
Representative. I never heard or read about either of them, though I did
see yard signs for the GOP U.S. Senate candidate.


You like to wait till the last minute to vote eh. Don't feel bad
we don't know anything about them either.


I like going to the polling place in person to say hello to friends. I
always vote in person on election day unless I vote absentee because I
know I'll be out of town.


Bet that takes no time whatsoever!


You were the closest he came to making a friend on rec.boats.


You're probably right. After all, we did shake hands. I've been scrubbing them pretty well since
then though. He seemed to be a blowhard when we met, and he's since proven that to be a fact.

Uh, no, that's not correct. Several of the guys here I befriended were
driven off by the right-wing wackos, including several boat dealers. I
never would have befriended a right-wing racist like Herring, but that
didn't prevent me from being cordial to him during our several meetings
at a marina we both used.

59% have done what? At the moment, 7:55 pm, Clinton has a 170,000 vote
margin in Florida. Wouldn't you expect the lead in that state to trade a
few times before the night is over?


I just turned the TV on a while ago and this is a surprise. I guess
there are more people who decided to jump instead of going back into
the fire (My 9-11 analogy)
I just saw Chuck Todd talking about 269 and there are a couple states
they think will go into recounts.
The SCOTUS may not even be able to bail us out being 4/4.

Will the democrats actually acknowledge they lost if this does go to
trump? It was easy to talk about quick concession when you think you
will win.
We had one race here that the democrat got ZERO votes. I can't believe
that is really true but that was the projection with 79% in.

The GOPers in Congress

If it wasn't for Gingrich, Bill C would have never attempted to
balance the budget. Alas they all lost their way and we have not
considered it again (both parties)
Hence I still support a guy who is hazy on obscure cities in Syria
that we have no compelling national interest in.


I've seen him interviewed on a number of non-foreign-policy subjects. He
is hazy on everything. Is he on a permanent marijuana high?


One of the talking heard gave the best excuse for voting a 3d party I
ever heard. If you leave a ballot "blank" someone can mark it later.
There have been people caught this year doing that on both sides.
We may actually go looking for some voter fraud if Hillary loses and
that is what they do in the next 2 months. I guess trying to throw
Hillary in jail has lost some of it's luster if she is wiping servers
with a rag in Chappaqua.
I suppose she could go after Gillibrand's seat in 18 but Kristin may
not go quietly.

Nope. It's now 1am and I am as shocked as you probably are at the
results so far. Seems Trump is well on his way to becoming POTUS.

Despite my dislike of Hillary I was certain that given the $$ and
campaign organization she had that it would be close to a landslide for
her. I was as wrong as most of the media and pollsters were.

My wife called it though. She grew to like Trump (being much more
conservative than I). We have had many discussions about this election
and I've repeatedly told her that Trump would lose badly. Looks like
I'll be eating crow for dinner tomorrow.

I was not and am still not a supporter of Trump. This election is
unprecedented.


Scary huh?

As one who supports a third party (socialist/labour), I agree with you.
The two main parties have to be reminded that they don't have a God given right to govern.
