Early numbers would seem to favour Trump, but these are all rural areas so far. Still, Trump has made progress relative to Romney everywhere.0

The only trouble with the BBC is having to listen to Jeremy vine doing his elections-for-dummies spiel.0
-
First 3 counties from Indiana Trump overperforming Romney by a swing of 10 and 16%, and exactly the same as Romney in the third.
Average swing 8.7 so far in Indiana.0 -
He's doing worse than Romney in Franklin so far.rcs1000 said:Early numbers would seem to favour Trump, but these are all rural areas so far. Still, Trump has made progress relative to Romney everywhere.

Hillary is back to where she's been all day with Sporting on 305-315 ECVs.
The fun's all over folks - she's going to win comfortably within 10 points either side of this spread I would suggest, i.e. between 295 - 325, although I would favour the upper end.
Time to go to bed I fancy and hopefully have some profits to collect in the morning.0 -

His view is that Trump is winning W (NC) by a mile, while Clinton has a similar share of non-white voters.
College educated whites went for Romney marginally in 2012. This time?0 -
Am watching Sky.
Kay Burley has just showed up on a boat (but so far she's not thrown anyone in the water though it's still early in the night)0 -
Both BBC and Sky have so much bias for Clinton which can only mean boring dialogue until the results pure in.0

She could be embedded in the Trump bunker. The only correspondent not to lose accreditation.Scrapheap_as_was said:0 -
GW Bush unprecedented (say the BBC)

CNN is pretty good. I gave up on Sky hours ago – they have no decent reporters in the field it would seem.MaxPB said:

When do we need to stick around until to get an idea of the direction of the night? I won't be staying up all night for this one, watched all night of GE2010, 15, and EUref, and all were miserable results for me! As I'm predicting a Trump victory I don't fancy sticking around for it and hope to be proved wrong tomorrow morning!0

For what it's worth Frank Luntz is getting increasingly bullish about Clinton's chances and believes the Democrats have a serious shot at the Senate. He says it's looking more like 2012 than 2004.

Both states have very high white working-class populations (whereas most of the other northeastern states either have big minority populations, big educated white populations, or a very left-wing culture in the case of Vermont).0 -
Trump still outperforming the Republican Senate candidates in Kentucky and Indiana. Could be the most significant thing from the results so far.0
