If Trump wins, Nigel Farage is relevant again. He's the British politician with strongest links to the new president #ElectionNight

CNN projects Trump wins Ohio — but note, he was widely projected to take Ohio. Not major blow to Clinton. Just a blow to, ya know, America.

From a NeverTrump, moderate Republican point of view, this is awful. Trumpism has not been repudiated. It's done quite well #ElectionNight

Republicans love markets.
Markets fear Trump presidency.
Republicans ignore markets and support Trump?
Half of the US has been seething for 8 yrs about President Obama. Could #HRC be suffering from America's Black Man Backlash? #ElectionNight

We may have a chance to test the theory that the world will come to an end if Trump becomes president of the United States #ElectionNight

Donald Trump could win this thing. And whether he wins or not, that he was this competitive has huge ramifications for GOP #ElectionNight

You know that moment in a @Disney movie when the mom dies and the evil step mother moves in ... I feel dread #ElectionNight

The Trump path has become wider. Still a night for history just buckle up!

Please, America. I still want to believe that we are fundamentally good and optimistic and inclusive. And united.

Our long national nightmare is not over. #ElectionNight

Crazy. I wonder if this is what it felt like in Great Britain before "Brexit." ... And we laughed at those 'silly Brits!' #ElectionNight

I'll tell you what I keep telling all my friends who are texting me freaking out — don't worry about a state until it's CALLED.

Turns out not as many people are 'outraged' by Trump's message as reported. Whatever happens tonight, America will be different tomorrow
— RoxanneJones (@iamroxannejones) November 9, 2016
Assuming Trump still loses, Republicans cannot ignore his voters. He's found plenty of new ones. #ElectionNight

Bigger picture question #ElectionNight is what the narrow FL margin and sharp rural v urban/suburban divide says about PA?

How many ppl are googling Canadian immigration laws right now? #ElectionNight

Remember: If Trump loses florida, he pretty much loses the election. If Trump wins Florida he still needs to win many more battlegrounds.

Whatever happens, we are seeing a realignment in popular vote. #ElectionNight
— Tim Stanley (@timothy_stanley) November 9, 2016
9 oclock and Trump has reason to feel encouraged.

If, IF these tight margins persist #ElectionNight it doesnt bode well for the final winner to govern effectively
