One thing that jumps out at me from the Votecastr maps is that they project HRC winning Jacksonville (Duval county) by 3%. IMO if she wins Jacksonville, she wins the election.0

Trump hovering at 5 on Betfair - actual votes in Kentucky/ Indiana better than Romney - Indiana I can understand. Kentucky call Trump +27 is 4.3 better than Romney.0

Interesting package on 538 explaining that the typical Trump supporter is better paid but less well educated than the American average. They are in effect workers in unionised industries who are seeing their jobs and status disappearing.0

I see a pattern emerging, Trump doing worse than Romney in the cities, doing better than Romney in rural areas and small towns.
The Miami-Dade early vote is actually not bad for Trump, same as Romney which means he didn't lose the cuban vote.0 -
Florida 30% in, Clinton 52,000 votes ahead.0

For anyone who knows there political geography the Guardian live results section allows you to home in on a state, see the current result and, more importantly, which counties have reported. Anyone getting excited about the Trump vote in Florida needs to have a look a which counties have voted.0

I’m looking at returns from two major counties in Florida: Duval and Palm Beach. In the early vote, Clinton is doing better than the amount that Obama won by overall in those counties in 2012. In Palm Beach, she’s running 7 percentage points ahead. If that holds, it’s going to be a very long night for Trump.0 -
