The networks called it at 78% reporting. If this board hadn't crashed on election night, at what % reporting would the experts on here have called it?

Not an expert, because like has already been said:


But I had it called when he had 51% to Hillary's 48% and only 30-odd percent was in.

Hillary's early lead concerned me, but once it evaporated, I knew then.


Also the counties quickly were telling me Trump was doing well. Romney massively under performed in NW and South Central OH, two key areas where Republicans need to run up the margins. Trump killed it in both areas, was outpacing Romney in the SE and was collapsing the Democratic bastions in the NE corner of the state.

For one thing, Trump paid Russia to hack the results, so any actual votes didn't matter.

Still, the polls almost always showed Trump leading the state.

The networks waited too long to call this state.  Once 30% of the vote was in, it was clear to me that Clinton was not going to win Ohio.

Before election day.

But when FL was closing in on a small Trump win, I already knew OH was everything else than close.

I figured Trump would win no matter what so I did not even follow OH.  I put my time on FL NC and NH.  When I realized that Trump was ahead by 6 in OH I concluded that PA and MI (I still mentally blocked out WI as a possible Trump wolin ) could go Trump and started to look at those states.

That was true for basically every swing state won by Trump.

meh, PA absentee's bigly cut trump's margins so they were fair in holding off on that state.

Not Pennsylvania, that was about right.

No one sane is saying russia hacked the results. Influence =/= hack. To hack, you would have to hack every single county, a literal impossibility.
