The official election results and headlines thread by skip 11/07/2016, 6:35am PST
I love how every media outlet is now posting articles bitching about how tedious and long this election cycle is. Sure WaPo. You guys were posting nothing but Trump articles for months and now you're trying to complain about the nonstop coverage. When I looked at some of the usual suspects here's some headlines from today:

Hillary Clinton’s likability problem, as explained by Gilmore Girls and Dawson’s Creek
I’m Voting For Trump Because Only A Street Fighter Can Take Down Clinton’s Anti-America Machine
What Madonna Just Said About Hillary's Email Scandal Is Shocking


I didn't even have to go on Buzzfeed for these. At any rate, 538 currently has Clinton's chances of winning at 66%. The NYT has her winning at 84%. They collected the predictions of several other sites and all of them are calling it in her favor. When you look at the state data, you really have to wonder how Huffpo is calling Tennessee for Clinton but otherwise they're fairly consistent. The Senate is trickier and NYT and 538 are giving a slight edge to the Dems but not by much. No major sites have nice House projections because the odds of Republicans losing that are basically zero.
