It is looking like Trump will win it and the GOP will control the Senate and House

Edit: Not a sure thing for Trump yet .. but this is a lot closer than it should have been/the polls indicated. Hillary will have to go down as the shittiest major candidate in history ever if she does not win this
 
Even if Hillary does win, this result is embarrassing. This should not have been close and anyone who thinks Hillary is even nearly as bad as Trump is delusional.
 
.. and Iowa .. it is pretty much over, the worst he can do is a 269-269 tie and the House decides (1 vote per state), but it looks like he will win it outright.

There’s going to be a lot of talk about white voters after the election, but looking at the exit polls, that’s not the full story. A big part of the story is that Clinton underperformed Obama with blacks and Hispanics. Clinton is winning only 88 percent of the black vote. Exit polls in 2012 had Obama at 93 percent. Clinton is only at 65 percent among Latinos. Obama won 71 percent of them

Really fucking pathetic. Payback for Obama? Just an out and out embarrassment. The American people have no clue how much this will impact them. Proud to be an American but not proud of my countrymen and women.
 
The Associated Press has called Toomey the winner of the Pennsylvania Senate race. The Republican Party has officially retained control of the upper chamber of Congress with that victory.
 
Podesta speaking now, hopefully he does not tell the crowd his new gmail password. He basically is saying Hillary is not speaking tonight .. so no concession tonight

Edit: He told everyone to go home
 
I don't know what to expect from Trump's presidency, we shall see. Hope he doesn't go apeshit on anyone.

One thing to take away from this, election polls have been absolutely shit throughout the world lately. They can't get anything right.
 
So I'm moving back to Mexico. Fuck my debt, going down, sticking it out for at least 7 years and that's IF we move back.
 
Brief thoughts:

Democrats let this happen. Hillary should've never been the nominee and she and her campaign were way too overconfident and smug toward the opposing side. Calling the opposition's voters deplorable is the sort of thing that creates a silent majority and lets this happen.

And as I've said many times in this thread: Basing this campaign on Trump being worse cost them the election. When you're an undecided/uninformed voter are you going to vote for the candidate with an enthusiastic base and a (albeit hollow) set of plans or the candidate with a half enthused base with no especially clear message beyond "the other guy is worse"? I still maintain that Hillary is a far superior candidate to Donald, but I am more angry at Hillary, her campaign, and the DNC for letting this happen. This should've been a cakewalk.
