Intermittent chants of “Lock her up!” and “Build the wall!” sprang up.

The reality that we have a system where you can lose the popular vote and still win?

It doesn’t matter because this chocolate is dangerous to eat anyway. Try to bite down on it and there’s a high chance the triangle peaks will cut the roof of your mouth and ruin your mood.

I agree we could do without the preening and long suffering bullshit about how it’s so harrrrd to vote for Hillary Clinton. Voting for her was easy, but that shouldn’t stop someone from saying they’d like better options. Hell I would have preferred better options than her, and I’m not talking about Bernie Sanders

By all means, rant away, but remind them at the end that their correct vote for the wrong reasons is still important and necessary.

Watching Fox News when it becomes clear the Republicans won’t take the White House is good. Election night is the one night where you can’t really spin the news when the results don’t go your way. Until then it’s exhausting.

Yes, but will it get to Karl Rove 2012 meltdown insanity levels before the end of the night?

If you want good election night coverage, watch CNN and keep an eye on FiveThirtyEight’s election liveblog.

Probably, but I also do think that the whole “It just makes the voting process run smoother for more people” reason would be compelling enough even without any security considerations.

I swear I’m not making it up, this is the text I copied from the top of the article when I first clicked on it. Now it’s changed.

The longer he stands there the more likely it is that his presence becomes disruptive to lots of other people getting to vote. Larger crowds, the bystander effect (e.g. people are paying more attention to him and not going about their own voting as rapidly as they should) and all that jazz. Getting him in and out of

At this point, we are 12-18 hours away from being able to know whether it will be close enough for him to do that with any credibility, so I hesitate to speculate. Once it becomes clear the election is over, he may rapidly lose the support of Republicans who are left standing if he tries to contest a clear loss.

I voted this morning. Given the choices, there was only one sane one. Not that it really matters, because by the power of the Electoral College, my vote won’t wind up meaning jack diddly.

Wait, you’re allowed to vote for yourself?

the scene allegedly sees someone unveil a wight to the stunned gathering, in an attempt to convince everyone of the impending and very real threat of the white walkers.

Right, but ultimately that represents something that is fundamentally different than content generation. It’s content placement. The fact that Facebook hasn’t always engaged in that content placement consistently is interesting, but to say “Facebook is a media company just like ABC News” sort of pretends they are

Nope.

This isn’t that new, of course. Facebook was partnering with media companies for coverage during the debates and primaries as well. But it reminds us that no matter how many times Facebook says it’s not a media company, it most certainly is.

Okay, but why then degrade the character and yourself? And if you have to do it for some reason, why do it in public where people are obviously going to take it out of context?

“Well, I think the free market,” Johnson began, going on to explain that capitalism will probably solve this whole mess because “consumers are demanding less carbon emission.
