    Still a lot of votes in Palm Beach and Broward. Also in Dade, but it's up over 90% reporting now.

    Well the areas that haven't finished in Florida favor Democrats, but with all it already being that large percentage in, it has to be leaning toward Trump.

    What a f*** up there. Probably wouldn't have won with the guy that actually won the nomination...but now they also managed to destroy Evan Bayh's political career, too.

    I see Clinton outperforming Obama in counties he won in 2012 and Trump outperforming Romney in counties he won in 2012. Blue areas getting blue-er and red areas getting redder.

    Somebody clue me in - if "The Idiot" wins NC and Florida, is that supposed to spell doom for "The Queen"?

    I know it's early but I am surprised it's this close

    I thought Hillary would be leading healthily and win by a landslide

    Just goes to show that we have a lot of deranged individuals (Trump voters) in the US of A

    Republicans running Rubio in Florida probably put the state back in play. Democrats countered with Bayh in Indiana and failed miserably.

    He's making wolf look like a giddy little girl by how calm and collected he is in comparison

    Not really. If Trump loses those, he has no path to victory. Clinton could still win with Pennsylvania, Michigan, and either New Hampshire or Nevada if she loses FL and NC.

    Nothing really surprising at this point. Michigan could change that view. As we go west, the Dem totals will start to rise.

    A theory on reddit is that the media knows Clinton is going to win Florida, but is drawing it out for the ratings. Believable theory, but YOLO.

    It likes Hillary is down by about 115k in Florida. I don't think even in those counties she will make up that many votes.

    I expected her to lose Florida and Ohio and only get 280 evs.
