The exit poll in Minnesota is very bad news for Clinton.
I don't think that even Arizona and NC can save her now if all the Mid-West goes Red along with Florida (Although a McMullin win in Utah could still give a 267-265 result to Trump.....)
The one thing that might cause Brexit to be scuppered is President Trump. IMO, the idea of sticking together with a big block to keep Trump in line might suddenly seem attractive to Middle England.
Err, no.
People want safety more than anything else. That didn't matter at the time of the Referendum, because there didn't really seem to be much to be scared of in the world. That will change if we suddenly have a deranged narcissist with his hands on the biggest nuclear arsenal in the world -- people might think Mama Merkel and Papa Juncker are out of touch, bossy, arrogant, etc., but they atleast seem vaguely sane.
All this talk about President Trump and bomb shelters. Its Clinton who terrifies me with the neo hawk drive towards war with Russia. I'd trust The Donald to not "accidentally" provoke WWIII far more than I do the Manchurian Candidate.
Florida , as discussed earlier the first number they report are the early vote. Not the on the day. So we're seeing a DNC early vote v RNC on the day swing as results come in.
This result kinda makes me glad that I'm British. Seriously.
Unfortunately we will have to live with the results as well.
I know, but it's nice to know that most White British people in this country aren't racist. In America, I think people of colour have just found out how White America sees them. And that must be terrifying.

This is genuinely terrifying. I have lost interest in the money I am about to lose.
You'd have been the hero if things had turned out as they looked at first. Seems like there's a huge rural: urban split which is distorting some of the counting.

I think I'm going to stop being interested in politics. The last few years have just been beyond depressing. I can deal with a Conservative government, Brexit, but this? No, this is too scary, way too scary. I think I've live in a place where ignorance is bliss. I don't need to be any more involved in this.

I am genuinely scared. If Europe heads in the same direction I will have to leave Britain as much as I love it.

The closest we will come to understanding how it must have felt in the 1930s.

Indeed. In fact, it's more likely he and Putin will accidentally push the button while they're in bed together than while they're having a confrontation.

Connecticut has not been called for yet.

OK, I sense that maybe I should be researching bug recipes.

I'm told that someone has called Michigan for Clinton. That's preposterous. She's in serious trouble there as well.
People want to overturn the establishment everywhere. Well done on your prediction, you were right!

Or at least it is as close as I want to come.
When will we see his like again?
It is breaking apart.
The end of history, my arse.
