    If Trump wins California then the world will cave in
    It was once a REP stronghold. Tho he wont win it.

    But he has so many paths to victory now if they stay as they are.

    He could have this by the Nevada vote.
    California needs a shake up of it's votes, they don't bother visiting the most populated state in the country, they should split them. It's a crazy situation.

    Woke up to check things. Feeling a tad sick right now. That it can be this close, with a lean towards Trump.

    Always wondered how Hitler got elected. That in 2016, we can see how....just so deeply sad right now.

    Trump has shown great political awareness, the way he won the nomination, then campaigning in states that people thought were safe Democrat, like in places like Michigan.

    Could we be in for another 2000?

    It's within Trump "rigged" percentages.

    At this rate it will be Hillary that will have to head down to the courts.

    The Hitler comparison... It belittles the suffering that people suffered under his reign.

    Go back to sleep

    The county is traditionally very blue. Calm down.
    I know yeah, but that statistics didn't back up Clinton winning and he kept drilling that point home. Thought I need to drive that it was definitely Trump's state now.

    Why would I get worried!! Both are very flawed candidates. Where have I conveyed any preference. I am still confidence Clinton will get over the line though

    Maybe. But Trump is an admitted sexual abuser, runs on a platform that is not just openly but proudly xenophobic, has a vice evident who endorses gay conversion therapy, and looks set to win not on any economic or actual policy, but on a foundation of insults and "charisma".

    Trump openly wants a dictatorship, and it looks like the American population are happy to give it to him. Can't be trusted with his own Twitter account but about to be given the nuclear codes. As I said, deep sadness...

    NYT started at 75% for Hillary to win, now 66% for Trump. This is scary.

    A super-rich sociopath who has been a friend to the establishment all his life, and who refuses to publish his tax returns, has managed to convince millions of downtrodden Americans that he is the person they need to make society fairer and more accountable. Frightening.
