But I heard even dead people vote there sometimes :sad:

Actual voter fraud in America is rare.  It's never affected the outcome of an election to my knowledge.  Voter purging and disenfranchisement, on the other hand, works wonders for GOP.

Exit polls conducted on the east coast are coming in. These are surveys conducted at the polls.

 

Trump approval is at -11% , which has historically meant bad news for the GOP.

 

Exit polling is important, because if the states report radically different numbers than the exit polling, it will be noticeable.

 

16% of people in the exit polls are first-time voters. Back in 2016, it was 10%.

Views of trump as president:

Approve: 44%

Disapprove: 55%

 

Strongly approve: 31%

Somewhat approve: 13%

Somewhat disapprove: 7%

Strongly disapprove: 47%

 

That is the type of statistic in which alot of people would vote straight-ticket across the board.

Well seems like the first projection is in:

 

NBC is stating that Jennifer Wexton (10th Congressional District for Virginia) has beat incumbent Barbara Comstock.

With 53% of precincts reporting in Florida, the Democratic candidates, Andrew Gillum and Bill Nelson, are winning by about 3 percentage points.

 

Now what usually happens is that the big counties that have the big population report their numbers last. But those high-population counties are almost definitely going to be leaning democratic, so that will mean more votes for Gillum and Nelson.

 

Usually, when a Democrat wins, the numbers turn in their favor at the very end. Here, we're already seeing them turn HALFWAY through. THat's very good news for Democrats.

LOL Fox News is not talking about ANY House races at all, and they are just solely focusing on the Senate in their coverage.:mjgrin:

 

Guess we can safely say that the Democrats take control of the House.

 

Which is good, because that means that Democrats take control of the investigative committees regarding Trump and Russia collusion.

It's stunning to watch the both of them (Fox Vs. NBC), the discussion on NBC are willing to talk & discuss about where both parties are doing stronger or weaker than projected. Fox has very little introspective looking into how Trumps  immigration speeches versus his lack of discussion with regards to the Economy: especially the strong numbers that came out last Friday.

It's looking like Rick Scott AND DeSantis will win in Florida - although still early projections, but around 50%-54% reporting.

yup. i don't see the democratic candidates coming back. both are down 60,000+ votes. 

 

edit: 99% votes in; gillum down by 90,000 votes.
