Lilly Posted November 7, 2016 #1 Share Posted November 7, 2016 I honestly don't think I can stomach watching the media cover this election. I'm thinking of just watching a couple of DVDs and going to sleep early. So, who will watch and who will not watch? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorvir Posted November 7, 2016 #2 Share Posted November 7, 2016 No, I don't think I will. I might flip over every once in a while, but like you, Lilly, I won't be able to put up with the noise and sensationalism from the talking heads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rashore Posted November 7, 2016 #4 Share Posted November 7, 2016 Nope. I'll go down to the Town Hall and check our local tapes a while after the polls close... But I won't bother with hours of media coverage. I'll just check the news in the morning. Pretty much the same as I usually do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Noteverythingisaconspiracy Posted November 7, 2016 #5 Share Posted November 7, 2016 (edited) I have a question: When is the final election result usually announced ? Here in Denmark we usually get the reult around midnight, but with Alaska and Hawaii so far west their votes will presumably come in several hours after the rest of the US ? Edit: During the election I will be at work and shortly after that hopefully sound asleep.

freetoroam Posted November 7, 2016 #7 Share Posted November 7, 2016 (edited) What election? Oh the circus? yeah, I like watching the clowns from time to time, so will too be flipping over from time to time, but obviously I have my priority watching here, and if Emmerdale or Corrie is on, then they come first. All joking aside,this is one of the most powerful countries in the world...and the world could have Clinton at its helm? jeeze!

Then i'll put it out of my mind till the winner is officially announced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having grown up in AK there were elections that were called before our polls were even closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DingoLingo Posted November 7, 2016 #14 Share Posted November 7, 2016 you know the good old patriot types that are saying 'were gonna cause trouble if Trump don't get in' or Hillarys Shills stirring the pot.. since a few places are worried that there might be trouble election day.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorvir Posted November 7, 2016 #16 Share Posted November 7, 2016 It's the usual places where swing votes are important and the left thinks they can get away with their usual fraud, or places where vote bullying can take place with little repercussions. I'm sure there will be places shown on TV, sensationalized beyond reason, where claims of trouble are being made. And I'm sure some of those instances will be taken out of context just for ratings.

spartan max2 Posted November 7, 2016 #18 Share Posted November 7, 2016 Bullying like during Obama's election when the black panthers were at polling stations . Funny how that almost never gets mentioned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RavenHawk Posted November 7, 2016 #22 Share Posted November 7, 2016 I'll have the TV on in the back ground while doing something else, probably reading this thread about who's going to watch. I'll flip over to a MSM station to watch them declare winners in each state. States will have 5% in and Hilary may be in the lead by 1% and they declare for HIlary. On the other hand, 99% of the vote will be in and Trump up 60% and they still won't declare. They'll say it's still too close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taun Posted November 7, 2016 #23 Share Posted November 7, 2016 (edited) When I am elected Emperor of the World one of the first changes I am enacting (right after mandatory free pizza and beer Thursdays) is to absolutely forbid ANY media coverage of the election on election day/night... I don't know how many times I've sat and watched the media do their best to sway those who have not yet voted to "just go with the clear winner"... As Farmer77 said - often the election is conceded before the polls are even closed!... How many times have you listened to a "talking head" say things like,,, "With 15% of the vote in we are calling this state for...(fill in the blank)"...? And No I will not watch...

I'll check to see who wins Florida. If she does then it's over early. If he wins FL and NC I'll keep checking back but I won't sit and listen as the Hildebeast makes her triumphal entry.

Whatever the outcome of the election, we'll awaken on November 9th to a new era in American history. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
