Well that was fun. I “predicted” Clinton about halfway through.

My prediction was Clinton 287, Trump 208. I honestly think he’ll take Florida, but it won’t ultimately matter.

Either way, I voted this morning, so my job’s done.

@Seek I gave him Florida too & a handful of other swimg states, it was quite close for a while but inevitably Clinton fundamentally can’t be beaten.
Hmm…I wonder who bagged your vote, now that is tricky.

I was disgusted but did it anyway. I gave Florida, the Carolinas, Virginia and Arizona almost always all to Trump, and Pennsylvania and New Hampshire always to Clinton, and more often gave Colorado and Michigan to Clinton, and I think I got about 50/50 wins for each.

Feels to me like Virginia, Nevada, Ohio, Michigan, Iowa and Wisconsin would tend to be where the balance is, at least in my semi-apathetic semi-informed analysis. ;-)

Really I think all of the candidates, especially Trump and Johnson, and sadly also Stein (too not-really-a-president even if I agree with most of her opinions at a high level) should be disqualified and actual good honest intelligent non-corporate people should be the candidates.

I got Clinton 278 to 250.

@Seek Interesting that you think Trump will take FL. I think Palm Beach County will be an interesting and really important county for him. I still think Hillary will get our state though.

I think Trump has a good chance in PA and OH.
