Re: 2016 Election
The big picture right now is simple and clear: Hillary Clinton is in trouble. The states to focus on are Pennsylvania (20 electoral votes), Michigan (16) and Wisconsin (10). If Clinton loses either of the larger states, she’s finished. She has a path to an 269-269 electoral tie if she loses Wisconsin – but she would have to win New Hampshire, which hasn’t been called yet.
And an electoral tie, after passing through a thicket of constitutional logistics, likely represents a win for Trump, owing to a strong Republican majority in the House of Representatives and retained Republican control of the senate, which looks very likely. The three key states at this point all have gone reliably Democratic in presidential elections going back six elections. There are 31 such states – and none of them has yet broken the pattern tonight. But those states may be friendlier to Trump owing to his strength with the white, working-class voters that proliferate in the upper Midwest. In the last hour, both Florida and Ohio were called for Trump, huge wins for him, and North Carolina appears to be running his way. It’s a very tight race. |

from 538 blog, a while ago:
Repeating myself a bit, but Clinton is still the favorite to win the popular vote, according to the Upshot’s model, despite now having become a fairly clear Electoral College underdog. Our pre-election forecast had shown about an 11 percent chance of such a split in Trump’s favor. 2016 Election Night: Live coverage and results | FiveThirtyEight |

Re: 2016 Election
I haven't smoked pot in 35 years, but if Trump wins, maybe this will be the silver lining ... I can just get stoned all the time! Here's hoping CA legalizes ...
When Florida voters legalized medical marijuana tonight, it became the 26th state (plus D.C.) to legalize or decriminalize the drug. That means over half of all states in the U.S. have made medical marijuana legal. Now activists are looking toward California, where polls have not yet closed, to sway societal attitudes. The state could be massively important for the movement to legalize marijuana. The population of California is larger than the combined population of all seven other states (Maine, Massachusetts, North Dakota, Arkansas, Arizona, Montana and Nevada) whose marijuana ballot measures have yet to be called. |

Re: 2016 Election
This just in on 538 - "North Carolina, which ABC News just called for Trump, is the first really big shoe to drop against Clinton, since it deprives her of her best backup plan if she loses a Midwestern or Rust Belt state. Now Clinton has to run the table in Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. She could wind up losing several swing states by just 1 to 3 percentage points, losing just a little bit too much ground in the Midwest, and not making up quite enough in the Southeast."
