Newt Gingrich predicted a Trump victory with 324 electoral votes tonight.

We'll see . . . but wouldn't it be nice if he were right?
Trump won in 2016. Democrats haven't been so offended since Republicans came along and freed their slaves.

I've modified the poll to allow folks to change their answer, if they see fit.

I didn't add zxcvbob's option, although I tend to agree.

I'm listening to Maria Bartiromo on Fox Business right now, and she just said, "Join us tomorrow morning to see what the election numbers are". Seems like the media is preparing for an ongoing fight and no winner tonight. Which I think is likely if Trump doesn't win by a landslide of electoral votes that cancel out the expected "trouble states" like PA.

He also thought Romney would win.

Plenty of people bought into the "Unskewed polls" for that election.
In the moral, catatonic stupor America finds itself in today it is only disagreement we seek, and the more virulent that disagreement, the better.

Yeah, people thought Republicans would turn out to vote against Obama even though no one was real enthusiastic about Romney.  It didn't happen.

There is no parallel in this election though.

Yeah, I would have expected it to not move much either way just because of uncertainty.

Why even spend more than 30 seconds arguing with someone like that?  You ignore her and go inside anyway.  Pretty sure she's not supposed to be wearing a Biden mask (or a Trump mask for that matter) that close to a polling place.

If I was a certified poll watcher, nobody without a badge and gun would stop me from doing my duly authorized job. ("Badge and gun" . . . even if he's in the wrong, I'm not going to try pushing a cop aside . . . but hopefully my cell phone video would cost him his job. Or at least a suspension without pay.)

Joe Biden will address the nation as our new leader tonight if the media calls the election for him. So are we counting ballots a week out or not now?

Regardless of the outcome, I will not be leaving the country, burning buildings down, or screaming into the sky.
But I’d really appreciate it if all the Hollywood snobs who pledged to go, followed through. Thanks.

As much as it pains me, I'm figuring Biden is going to barely win the popular vote and electoral college, it will be known tonight. I also think regardless of who wins, there is going to be some major property destruction and violence in urban/suburban areas of many of the larger population areas for the next several days.

I am afraid you're right on all counts.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.
