that's heavy irony: an American watching BBC for news on an American election.

How European - volunteers serving alcohol at a political event. (used to be very much American tradition as well but that went out with Prohibition).

that's so ironic. i don't care for that shit, i'd rather drink beer and talk shit about trump with my fellow media-friends, buuuut.... i got school and shit. but i sit at home and play where's willy haha... trynna spot them.

I'll probably check a few different streams but the BBC's coverage has impressed me the most in previous elections.

Also I've been spoiled by getting to watch their coverage of four major votes in the UK in less than two years and it'll be a while till the next general election over there.

my stream has the best music in between

sofa talk now. the guy interviewing i studied with last year. he supports trump actually. and the two professors are actually married, but yeah.. doesn't matter. sofa talk is also in english

Just went to FiveThirtyEight (mainly to check their NFL Elo rankings tbh) and I noticed that since yesterday they've moved Florida from pale red to pale blue, which puts them in line with what Wang and Sabato have predicted for FL.

posting this again.

Was not expecting to hear "Sweet Home Alabama" start playing in that stream, Norc.

Great stuff, Eldo - I actually had a pretty good overview of the American system a few years ago (school teachers went crazy about the U.S. electoral system when Obama first ran for presidency), but I really needed a brush-up I'll be following the thread until 2am at least. Cheers!

Thanks Ringo, glad you found it useful. And that you'll be with us tonight!

"Born in the USA" playing in the stream now. The guy who looks like Kid Rock on the stage is

OMG a Deez Nuts shot out. And now Vermin Supreme. I had no guys there were so many US politics junkies in Norway. These guys know more about the race than most of my family.

"Condoleezee Reezee" oh my god you weren't kidding Norc this is fantastic
