3/15 election results talk

[pugz]

this feels like the real Super Tuesday 

so nervous on both sides of the ticket

[Vespasia]

We're out and about for the next few hours and I forgot to charge my phone. I'm so annoyed that I won't be able to check in here regularly for results!

Florida polls close in 9 minutes! I love being on the West Coast for this stuff, so I don't have to stay up all night. However, I miss being in Ohio for elections.

[readyin07]

I am a Floridian but we are on vacation so I did an early ballot. I know trump is going to win and I am fucking pissed about it. And my mom just told me my dad voted for him. Traitor. He thought he was a lunatic. I don't even know anything anymore.

[runforrest]

I'm very nervous. I hate this election.

[pugz]

just like last Tuesday, we have Paw Patrol on, not CNN, lol.

I see similarities between chikaletta and trump....

[chedifuen]

I was nervous but now I'm cautiously optimistic. I have a feeling tonight will be a really good night for Hillary

[claudiajean]

I hate this election. I have a pit in my stomach.

[claudiajean]

And did we have to have so many big races on the Ides of March? Beware!

[FloFTW]

Two things:

I actually saw a truck advertising Rocky while driving in downtown Cleveland today. It had digital screens covering 3 sides. Go Rocky?

My polling place was PACKED and no where to park at 6pm. It was like the mall at Christmas. It's going to be a late night.

Dammit Chikaletta was the front runner for the baby's Halloween costume this year.

I'm still at work because California, so I'm listening to WOSU (the Columbus, Ohio NPR affiliate). People are calling in to say who they voted for and why, Republicans first. And a Trump caller was the first one of the show. Asked if the rhetoric bothered him, he said, "I don't think he could've been as successful as he's been if he were racist. So I think that's just false.  People try to make a big deal of it, but it's just tongue in cheek."

So now my brain is boiling.

Why are people so dumb?!!

Exit polls say 7% of voters in the Ohio GOP primary were Dems. In 2008, it was just 3%.

Do we know what that percentage was in MI?

[chedifuen]

Looks like Florida polls were accurate. Hillary is absolutely crushing Sanders and Rubio should be dropping out in 3...2...1

[elleblue]

With 33% of the vote in, Hillary is leading Bernie 66.1% to 31.9% in Florida. Not a shocker there, but I like the large lead since they'll be splitting 214 delegates (if I'm remembering the number correctly).

I'm at a coffee shop attempting to write a paper which is good because I don't have the energy to watch news all night. On the hand I'm totally up for following along here and getting the play by play from some of you. :-)

[darnkatz]

My polling place was littered with at least a dozen Trump signs. I had to restrain myself from kicking them all over and spitting on them.

CNN has her up by 9 in Ohio based on exit polls!! ***NOT A PROJECTION

She's also ahead in North Carolina according to exit polls. Cruz is only 4% behind Drumpf in NC exit polls. 

[bowies]

So, Florida is kicking ass getting their numbers reported. Remember how long Michigan took? Get it together Michigan.

Some of the people in OH who were Dems that voted R were people voting Trump. Several of them were interviewed today on CNN. I don't know that I would think all of the D crossover are people who are hoping to defeat Trump. I think he appeals to a certain segment of Ds that you might find in Ohio.

This is why I said in another thread that I'd love to hear from someone in southeast Ohio. I literally know of no one personally that voted for Trump but know a lot of Kasich.

She's leading in FL by more votes than they've even counted for Bernie so far.

[elleblue]

North Carolina with 4% of the votes in - Hillary 64% Bernie 34.3%. Drumpf 40.1% Cruz 32% Kasich 14.4% Rubio 10.9%.

[eclaires]

Drumpf is making me laugh so hard.
