Gibby showing up at the 11th hour was the proverbial canary in the coal mine

I live in central PA, people don't realize how fast growing and big this area has become. It's been all trump since the beginning. It looks like it might be enough to trump philly and Pitt.

Markets down more tonight than after 911 and Great Recession. Crazy.

Truly amazing year. Cavs. Cubs. Trump.

Do you really think she'll go to prison? I don't.

Neither has CNN when John King is looking at the map by county and doesn't see any possible way it gets close.

Ok I know there is a liberal bias in the news but PA absolutely needs to be called, as does WI. This thing is over and he may runaway with it

I get it. Just think it's hypocritical that many voted for Trump because he's never been apart of politics until now. Yet they keep the same people in the senate and congress.

Fox called WI well over an hour ago....have not called PA or MI

Podesta heading to podium. Is Hillary not going to concede?

Podesta seemed awfully confident giving that....although, I suppose you have to even if your chances are very slim.

Lot of absentee ballots in Philly, and Milwaukee. It would be tough, but she could potentially still win those states. No idea on MI. Realistically, there's probably no chance of taking all three.

Unless they have something else up their sleeve. Fox quashed any notion of legal challenges, saying they would have heard. So at this point it looks like Hillary is just waiting for all the votes to be counted.

WI has been called by Fox and CNN, and whatever internet tracker I'm looking at. Arizona and Alaska gets him to 270. He's probably going to win MI and PA, and possibly NH. He's not out of it in MN, either.

Trump getting ready to speak (must have known the concession was coming).

Interesting what Hillary sent out Podesta to say, and then ends up conceding - what could have changed in 15 minutes?!? She was probably a hot mess incapable of speaking tonight.
