I knew Trump won when they called OH by a comfortable margin - I think about an hour earlier than FL was called. I was not nervous about FL at all because I knew the Panhandle would come through for him in the end. Also, I was following LS's postings in the days prior and based on the early numbers he was seeing, FL was a done deal. OH actually had me worried because I knew he could not win overall without a solid blowout victory there. That was the key to having a chance in PA, WI and MI. If Trump only won OH by a couple points, I don't think he would have won those other upper Midwest states.

Speaking of PA, I remember how many people here called it "fool's gold" and chastised Trump for spending resources there instead of focusing on other states like CO and NH. A lot of people thought it was literally impossible for Trump to carry PA, much less MI and WI.

I'm still a little heartbroken over NH - where I used to live - Trump should have won there and if he did, we'd have one extra senator as well (Ayotte).

True, re Ohio. I was still worried about FL, though.

Heartbreaking is also the millions of votes here in CA for Trump. Incredible amounts. All into the toilet. It is a very frustrating place to live, come election time.
