A little more detail on the Trump campaign lawsuit in Nevada: According to CNN, Trump’s lawyers filed briefs Monday night asking that early vote ballots cast past the poll’s official polling time not be “co-mingled or interspersed” with other ballots.

To reiterate the law, voters in line at the time a polling place officially closes are still entitled to cast their ballots, so it’s not entirely clear what the Trump team hopes to accomplish.

Per Nevada reporter Jon Ralston, Clark County issued a statement in response to the Trump suit: “The petition from the Trump campaign is a request to have us preserve the records from early voting. This is required by state law, and so it is something we are already doing.”

Goal is to prevent tampering "as needed". That's what you see in the primary against Bernie.

There's a very definite and consistent trend in voting over time and then suddenly things veer off dramatically towards Hillary. That is the type of thing turned an "irregularity" in all this primary articles

If Trump loses Denmark just moved to the top of my list of possible relocation countries.

The lawsuit is about people voting after the station should have closed. Only people in line already voted after the polling station was scheduled to close. It's law to allow people who are in line to vote after the polling station is scheduled to close. I'm not sure how your post is relevant to this specific case.

Did you ever donate plasma to get beer money, but also so you could get drunk on less beer?

The latest VoteCastr data from 8 swing states
Updated: 2:20 p.m. E.T.

Florida

  • 74.9 percent of expected total voters
  • Clinton: 49 percent
  • Trump: 45 percent
Colorado:

  • 72.2 percent of expected total voters
  • Clinton: 47 percent
  • Trump: 42 percent
Iowa:

  • 55.9 percent of expected total voters
  • Clinton: 45 percent
  • Trump: 46 percent
Wisconsin:

  • 47.9 percent of expected total voters
  • Clinton: 49 percent
  • Trump: 43 percent
Nevada:

  • 58.7 percent of expected total voters
  • Clinton: 47 percent
  • Trump: 44 percent
Ohio:

  • 59.8 percent of expected total voters
  • Clinton: 46 percent
  • Trump: 45 percent
Pennsylvania

  • 45.9 percent of expected total voters
  • Hillary: 48 percent
  • Trump: 44 percent
What it means: More than half of expected voters have already cast their ballots for president, and Hillary Clinton is on track to win key swing states barring a huge surge of Trump voters late in the day, according to VoteCastr’s model.

With 74.9 percent of expected votes cast in Florida, VoteCastr’s model predicts that Clinton has a four-point lead in the famously divided state. President Obama won the state in 2012 by less than one percent, and Al Gore lost the state by less than 1,000 votes.

But if these turnout patterns hold, Clinton is set for an enormous victory in the state, which would all but solidify her path to the presidency.

In Colorado, VoteCastr projects that 72.2 percent of total voters have cast their ballots, and its model has Clinton ahead by five points. Clinton’s campaign was so confident of victory there that it stopped airing television ads for much of the general election, though the state saw a late surge in television ad buys from the Democratic presidential candidate.

Donald Trump did see some positives, however. VoteCastr’s tracking model has him up one point in the swing state of Iowa. Trump will need to perform well across rust belt states like Iowa, Ohio, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania to have a chance at victory tonight. But polls in recent weeks have shown Trump up in Iowa by more than one point, so if these turnout patterns hold, VoteCastr’s model would suggest trouble for Trump.

VoteCastr’s Ken Strasma cautions that we are only at the midway point and there’s still a lot of game to play. There are lots of “urban myths” he said about whether Democrats or Republicans vote earlier in the day. It’s possible there could be surges of Clinton or Trump voters later on, and we will be giving you those numbers as soon as they come in.

I work in an office that loves right wing conspiracies. So far the following has happened:

  • Man talks about how his wife "betrayed him" because she voted for Clinton (update: He just asked if he can divorce his wife over how she voted)
  • Man is afraid of the well being of his unborn child because Hillary will "enforce mandatory abortions"
  • Trump will win if "n***ers stay the hell home"
  • "I bought enough food to last through Shillary's nuclear war."
  • "The moral fabric of our society is being torn asunder."
  • "I don't know which news to watch to see if Trump wins."
Anyone else having a great day?

edit/Updates:

  • Megyn Kelly is apparently "on the payroll of Shillary"
  • "If Clinton wins I'm moving to Ireland."
  • "if she can't even rig an election then she can't even run the country."
Update #2:

  • "...wait until she's on the rag and starts World War 3."
  • "How late is [Local Gunshop] open? I need to buy ammo if she hasn't already stopped that."
  • "Since when do you need to register to vote?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?? This is how she steals the election!" (no amount of exclaimation points can convey how angry he is)
Update #3:

  • "How do those transqueers count? Are they male? female? both?" (in reference to how they are counted for voting results)
  • "Why can't I force my wife to vote how I did?" -Same guy who wants to divorce his wife over how she voted
  • "Muslims are being elected this year. This is the last election I will vote in before they take over."

Exit polls are sealed until 5:15 EST. This is speculation based on party affiliation.

With the time change I'm going to have to set my alarm for the middle of the night to wake up for results.

What time do most of the polls on the west coast start closing?
Fuck sleep. Pop some adderall, ya big meanie. This is a once in a lifetime event.
