Why is it unreasonable to ask someone making a strong claim for proof, or some shred of proof other than “because I said so”? Why is it my job to find the information if you’re the one making the claim? Voter fraud is a serious accusation, it would be nice to have more evidence than “I read an article once, you’ll just have to look it up yourself though.” Without the information you used to come to your conclusion, how can I evaluate the strength of your claim?
So far all of the “called” states seem to be in line with projections. I know we’re on pins and needles looking for indicators from places like Florida and Georgia, but neither candidate has gotten a state “called” for them that makes me think “GAMECHANGER!”
Yeah, that’s what I mean…every state that’s been called so far has been a state that each of the respective candidates would have been expected to win. It’s not enough to meaningfully alter my feeling from the start of the night. No real “good” or “bad” news for either candidate in the states that have already been called (the states where we’re still getting more reports in without a call is another matter).
538 reporting that exit polls from Florida show people who consider the economy the most important factor favor Clinton over Trump by 7 points, in line with Pangloss’ statement on the market and a shock for a traditional GoP standopint
538 also reporting Clinton’s favorability rating beating Trumps in exit polls. Fucking Sad state of affairs. Neither candidate is above 50% though (thank goodness)
