How the major currencies react so far:

JPY > EUR > CHF > GBP > USD > NZD > CAD > AUD

Canada's immigration site has actually crashed.

That was on purpose. We decided that you need to stay where you are and learn how to vote better.

The best outcome I could hope for with this election was that Clinton would just barely win. We'd avoid a Trump presidency and wake up the democratic party.

Looks like it may be too late. Dems should have voted for Sanders in the primary.

He probably would have well underperformed Clinton with minorities. In a way, that strategy seems like betting that he would have prevented the white vote gains by Trump. Not a very moral way to win.

Minnesota looks shakey too. Hillary's win there is projected to be 1.2 points and dropping.

Donald is on path to win Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin. The blue wall is dead.

PA is looking blue at the moment. Michigan and Wisconsin are not good, but there are still numerous precincts not reporting in Milwaukee, Madison, and Detroit where Hillary is running well. Vote differential is only 45,000 or so in both states.

Ain't over yet.

It will be interesting to see if Trump does anything over the next few days to try to reassure Wall Street.

Your next revelation might be that you are wrong about them and wrong about what is reality. They are the first to tell you they are not stupid or racist.

Racists almost always deny that they are racists and stupid people are usually too stupid to know that they are stupid.

NYT is projecting that Donald will win it by a point.

Guardian shows Dem: 49.4%, Rep: 47.1% right now.

If the problem is government entanglements with wall Street, tanking stock market might be a sign of success.

If the USD follows the markets' lead, the Orange Menace could actually bring back manufacturing jobs. It's not how I'd want to get them back but it would work.

What are you looking at?? It's a 9% lead currently!

 

[marplots]

Labeling those you disagree with "racist", "sexist" and the like makes it very difficult to come back to the table when you lose.

 

[Cain]

Try to look at the bright side: Hillary Clinton might be going to prison.

You know who is super-happy? Putin.

 

[NoahFence]

You weren't listening when I told you they would vote for Trump. I said that months ago.

I'm hardly convinced they have.

...in favour of the orange oompa loompa?

The projection is based on votes reported and how those places voted in the past.

I think a lot of us are going through a Greiving process right now.

One bright spot so far:

Sheriff Joe Arpaio loses bid for seventh term after facing criminal charge 2 weeks before Election Day .​

 

[Galaxie]

I'm thinking Ron Johnson keeping his seat in WI means it will go Trump, smh...
