I don't think Corbyn's nearly hateful enough. People prefer an option that allows them to express their ugly feelings. They'd predict a Labour win, but UKIP would probably become the second party instead.

Colorado goes to Clinton. 9 big ones.
I'm not American and even I really find this pissing off. To see that absolute shitbag of a man win an election that makes him the world's nost powerful man is just wrong. Well done, America.
they could always be weathermen.
Fecking polls. Told me Netanjahu would lose, no Brexit, no Trump. Why can't they be wrong when projecting bad events ffs?
Again, BBC still using a huge picture of Clinton smiling and an awful picture of Trump. Embarrassing coverage. Also, they seem to be avoiding saying any sentence with Trump and president in it.
Because it is idiotic. Ignore the actual numbers and talk about betting odds.
I don't think it's just hatred (Sanders had a similar movement). It's disgust with the status quo and establishment politics.
The map-hero at CNN providing some hope now
Couldnt sleep, and if Trump wins wont be able to sleep....
I did Putin..your man won
I know. Everyone else had Clinton at 98-99%
He gave Trump a 1 in 3 chance. By far the closest of all the sites making predictions
Some mentions that the Wayne results in MI may not include any of Detroit itself. Not overly hopeful but one last straw to clutch.
feck it, I hope the talks of increased racial attacks also turns out to be wrong. Thats all I care about now.
People are actually crazy. Not even borderline crazy. Madness in its purest form.
Surely Clinton can't win without New Hampshire. Trumps in the lead there.
America bwoody hell
I don't understand the concern about PA at 538 and here. Looking at NYT it seems that the remaining votes are spread across the state.
WI and MI are following the OH trend in terms of him outperforming his polls, and will sink her.

guardian officially says trump wins FL
Clinton wins Colorado. Not bad
Some people in this thread don't fully understand the voting process and the betting odds is easier for them to understand how the vote is going.
"friends across the pond"
Fair play to him, he pushed Clinton in the primaries, but he still fell short. The ugly politicians are the ones who are prevailing.
CNNs coverage has a distinct air of disbelief.
United States of America........feck me!!
But the way in which they're failing is all going one way - towards right wing populism, xenophobia and anti-enlightenment politics. I don't see there being enough potential Jeremy voters in the country even if the stories fall apart. Left wing politics may have to wait for the next economic depression.
What's your opinion on polls and possibilities now.. are you a Corbynite yet?
Trump wins Florida, according to AP.
I hope Trump is actually a liberal who used discontent within the GOP to get into office. In other words, I hope he doesn't believe a word of the stuff he's said in the last two years.
How the feck will this moron even govern,? Didnt it come out that he offered one of the running mate candidates control of foreign and domestic policy??
Arizona and Wisconsin should be enough to get her through 270-268.
Surreal
"Some men just want to watch the world burn".
Maybe, but I think it's more the Sanders' effect I'm referring to. There's also an overlap between far right and far left with dissatisfaction for the establishment -- both hate it at the moment.
Is there a way Clinton can still win?
Nope the left is in tatters right now
Honestly, he would probably be murdered by one of those nutters out there currently believing he is God's chosen one to save America and bring it back to glory (i.e. in favor of white males).
