    Looks like there is a projection for Trump winning Kentucky and Clinton winning Vermont.

    And Trump is in the lead, horray!! Get them post-apocalyptic survival kits while you can! I'm hoping the US adopts a mega-city one style of governance:

    Oh, it just got worse - apparently the LA Times reports the shooter is at large and heavily armed. Wonderful. :(

    To be fair, Ben, it's no more farcical than the entire affair. They're no real mechanism to prevent a Donald Trump from getting to where he is now. There's no mechanism to stop the tory Democrats from rigging the system to keep Sanders on the back foot. There's no chance of a third party having any real say in government, by holding balance of power in one of the houses.

    A shooter, typifying the systemic issue with firearm control, is quite frankly only remarkable now because there's only one. Otherwise it's somewhat - depressingly - expected.

    That is because you Brits live in a left-wing dystopia where you don't have the Second Amendment to protect your rights from the horrible government!

    So micro reflection of the macro mess then Ender?

    Oh, but of course, I'm typing this in abject terror as a wolf is at the door and I've no gun. The streets are an apocalypse, the houses are wrecked, we're burning books in metal bins - oh wait, that's the post-Brexit world of May-Hem the First.

    For your obviously desperate need for attention and want for putting people down for the smallest thing that was an "oh geez" I spoke too soon here's more rather than "oh geez" he's winning. Relax, get over yourself.

    Be fair, May was elected by a plurality of the electorate in Britain.

    Wrong.


    One county, which is 1% of the vote. None of the early vote will be dropped until polls close in W. panhandle at 8 pm ET. Miami-Dade isn't done yet.

    I flipped out for a few seconds when CNN started projections from Florida and then I saw which counties they were reporting from.

    The extension of bumble**** Alabama. I stopped worrying.
