Clinton winning bigly in NOVA. No surprise. I'm guessing the first important State to be called? No-one really thought VA was in play this time though hmmmm...

This is not going according to the Democrat Hymn Sheet is it?
I am beginning to smell an incipient Brexit............Social media is going wobbly!!

The signs of a possible Trump victory are still there. Florida is going Trump, not much can save Hillary there now. There's plenty that can save Hilary if she loses Florida but nothing that can save Trump if he does (barring some shocks in Michigan, Pennsylvania)

Yes sorry misread that. It's looking quite hopeful in Florida now yes. I hope he wins there if only to keep the race open longer. Virginia is looking quite exciting too but I'd still expect HIlary to pull ahead there

I hope you are. it is more exciting this way and I have decided to stay up. This is just like Brexit where I decided to stay up after the early Sunderland figures and I was first to call it for Brexit.

There are many reasons why Trump might win, but there are no excuses.

The atmosphere in the BBC studio has suddenly become very sober.

I called it after Newcastle I said that to my good lady. Then I opened a rather nice bottle of Pol Roger, she told me I was being presumptuous. I was the first on this Forum a bit after 23.30.

I don't know why I didn't just put some on both. He hasn't won yet - I still don't think he will. Florida is a pre-requisite to winning but doesn;t give him victory. I think it will be a lot closer than expected in VA, MI, MN etc but probably all those will still be Democrat.

I have just opened a bottle of Oxford Landing warming in the kitchen with its cousins. This could get quite exciting.
The look on the faces of the Democrats is priceless. Just possible that awful woman is going to have a bum night and I really want to be there for that.
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh How I want to see that. What a year.
