I really can't believe this. I did not like either candidate but I am honestly surprised at the turnout for Trump. Florida had record levels in the typical democrat areas and still will lose it .

The media built this electorate. People are sick of them

My family has always been republican but I don't care at all about that anymore.
I think most felt the same if it weren't for the retiring judges on the surpreme court.

I got 252 for Trump with Nevada, Michigan, Wisconsin, New Hampshire, Iowa as possibilities.

Iowa and Michigan seals the deal.

Trump just moved back ahead 43k....not sure there are enough votes left in MI for Hillary. I also don't think Trump can catch her in PA.

But Trump could win WI and then he's got a shot even without MI.

NYT has Trump at 63% in PA as of now. Looks like he has significantly more votes outstanding.
