Glad I have citizenship, all those immigrants may not have visas this time next year. Scary times.

Nigel Farage, the former UKIP leader and Brexiteer-in-chief, is in typically bombastic mood this evening. “I thought Brexit was big, but this looks like it’s going to be even bigger,” he said.

I just turned on CNN ... (was trying to focus entirely on 538 live blog). CNN is a bit more optimistic for Clinton, but then ... they are probably trying to keep their ratings ...

I've gone against my own decision and decided to forego the pokers up the arse and have a couple of feeds going on my computer right now. 538 says one thing, CNN another. Google has their own 'live feed' that shows yet another story.

I don't know who to believe anymore.

English people are not the kind of people they are talking about when they talk about "immigrants". Some of my Mexican friends have more reason to worry.

I guess CNN will have a day of silence if Trump wins and will all wear black armbands for 4 years afterwards

On a lighter note...this time next year it will be the 2020 elections. This being the greatest electoral process in the world.

In the eyes of a Brit...it really is ****ed up system. Not to mention the billions of $ it costs.

We need to do away with the electoral college, just make it based on popular vote. (not saying it would change this election, but I see no need for this electoral college system.)

1 5 year term for president.

Vice President elected separately.

That is my list anyhow...
