6. Fucking ridiculous to call it with only 15% of the vote in (and mostly rural)...Big lead or not, I
think its irresponsible and its just wrong....

I say that the numbers are going to narrow a lot by the time 100% of the votes are in...doesn't mean Hillary doesn't win but not by as much as currently being shown.

7. those precincts were mostly rural? that must be because of Hillary's housing promises ...
California is FUCKED with Flipped homes, bad mortgages, rigged appraisals, foreclosures and the rurals are hard hit too.

8. CNN has been the most cautious of any media outlet to make projections
They waited for almost an hour after every other network had called AZ for Clinton, even though she had a 10% lead that wasn't diminishing at 60% or so in.

If they're calling CA I have to believe they have very good reason to. But I agree, the margin could certainly change.

9. LA is not mostly rural. And urban California is not Obama territory.
He gets destroyed with Hispanics and Asians. They just flat out do not like him.
