I left work Tuesday at 5:00 Pacific and Florida was trending hard for Clinton. Speculation that it would be an "early night" abounded. I figured it was a done deal and didn't check back for another few hours, when it was clear she was in trouble.

When exactly did it tip?

I would say when NC tied up and Trump going ahead. Around that time Florida and Virginia became tight. When Hillary couldn't close the deal early on Virginia, it was clear Hillary was in trouble.
In 2012 Romney won NC but it was a struggle to do it and it foretold the rest of the night. Virginia was the same for hillary.

When they were pretending she won Florida around 8:00 Central.

Some of the bigger southern counties came in early and gave her a big lead, but Trump was able to chip away at it. Once the panhandle counties started coming in, her lead evaporated and he jumped out to a lead she couldn't overcome.

I'd say right about the time Wolf started harassing the electoral map guy.

Lots of pundits were giddy when Kentucky came in because they claimed that Trump didn't do as well as expected. It was kind of a plateau from there until Florida and NC started slipping away. Then it was but but but lots of Clinton votes in this or that county are still yet to be counted. Then the melt started.

9:00 PM CST is when the tide started to turn.

I and the wife noticed about 8:30 that it seemed all three cable newscasts had a change in tone with their reporting. FOX was all smiles and chuckles with no looks of angst at all. The other two shows, panic was definitely developing.

I'd say when Virginia flipped back to her. They were still confident she had Pennsylvania and were thinking they could still take Florida.

The Michigan and Wisconsin bombs hadn't hit yet

Early on, I was watching NBC News and they announced that MSNBC had called Florida for Clinton.

I figured it would be a long night and Hillary would probably win.

When Clinton took Virginia, I thought it was over. I honestly expected it to go red and figured it was the swing state she needed.

Just found it fascinating that he lost one of the swing stated I expected to go his way, but still won by taking a few I didn't. I figure her camp had to be thinking the same (though obviously not as detached about it as I was).

When she made those foreigners believe they would get major ROI, and all they did was make her and Bill rich.

I bet Saudi is trying to figure the best way of handling their losses.

About 7 PM Baton Rouge time. I almost gave up at that time. HRC was leading in Georgia, Florida and N. Carolina. Major shrinkage as explained by George Costanza.

The next update a few minutes later showed a big jump for Trump in all three states. By 8 PM he was leading in those three states.

New Hampshire got my attention as an "indicative" state.

Wisconsin was the "Holy Shite".

I had an idea it was going to be a lot more interesting than anybody expected when we printed out the report at the precinct I worked and the D-R spread change from 2012 was 15 points for Trump.
