For Clinton to get 350 she needs PA,, FL, NC and GA - not going to happen (IMO) Only one of those States is a certain (PA)

In all seriousness, Clinton will get at least 300 electoral votes, I actually think she'll get to 350. Florida is in the bag, which is the election, but the question is how much of a win it's going to be. It might be close in the popular vote, but in terms of the overall final score, it's not going to be close.

I thought Remain would get 55%.....

There are a lot more NYPD riot police on the streets of New York at the moment as both Clinton and Trump have planned their celebration parties within blocks of each other.

Whatever the result it's to be hoped that people remain calm and that nothing stupid kicks off

I look in on an American/ British board. Obviously the election has brought many different views, and i have not commented but read the American views.
They also are not keen on either contenders, here was an interesting view though, from an Trump supporter.

fixed for you. so much of that is biased, Trump is extremely unlikely to break the habits of a lifetime and recruit let alone listen to experts, and has no knowledge how to grow an economy. he's economic policy is a disaster, cutting taxes without any sign of cutting expediture (actuall i think he will increase infrastructure spending more), so allowing their deficit to ballon (i think i read him saying he'd default to address this - he has form on this with his businesses), while anti-immigration would cut the workforce, driving up labour costs for business. it sounds great, but its not balanced.

Clinton to win by four points? Damn! That means the play-offs for us again.

Does goal difference count if it's very tight?

 

[Westdene Seagull]

This seems like the place for this. I've been told that Republican internal polling puts Clinton four points ahead. Don't have any info from the Democrats.

Enjoy your evening ��������������������

I'm sure Trump will concede gracefully and in no way dispute the outcome or encourage his followers to continue the fight ...

The wife has just gone to bed and told me if Trump wins don't wake her up......

Is that am invitation to kill her her ?

Clinton will win with ease,

Just seen J.Jackson on ITV he made of lot sense about the divide between America race, and sex. Although is it just party politics....

nothing will change in America other than if Clinton wins, another war front in another country.

Half the polls predicted the right result in the EU referendum, though. And it was pretty close.

Half of polls predicting the result in a 2 horse race would suggest that polls are exactly unreliable...

Let's hope it's Clinton. Ring wing maniacs on the rise for us in ourweakened country is bad enough, If the biggest country starts ****ing up as well we're ****ed.

NSC may be home to many left of centrists, and as someone who is just slightly right of centre, as much as i dont like Hillary or leftist politics, i am desperate for a Clinton win.

It don't matter a jot, what happens in domestic US politics, no president can get much done with an opposition controlled congress or senate, but on foreign policy and influencing major world events that effect us all.......... the thought of Trump cosying up to the revanchism of the far more clever and ruthless Putin who sees him as the useful idiot he is. Deary me, this gung ho brash buffoon having his finger on the nuclear button.... Lord help us all.

Police saying apparently nothing to do with the polling station

Police saying apparently nothing to do with the polling station but in-fact a young black man who was holding a potato gun
