Michigan is still counting their ballots while Trump has cruzed to a comfortable win. But on many national websites, it shows Michigan still hasn't locked their votes for Trump even though he doesn't need them.

What gives? Why keep waiting?

Trump obviously won. The media don't want to put him over 300.

The last network numbers I saw Thursday were showing two counties - Genesee (Flint) and Washtenaw (Ann Arbor) with a substantial number of uncounted votes. I had been predicting that Hillary would easily get enough of these uncounted votes to catch up and win the state.

Apparently I was wrong - NYT is showing 100% of the votes counted, with Hillary cutting into her statewide deficit but not closing it. Presumably, the 'last' votes to be counted were all outside Flint and outside Ann Arbor.

The Detroit FP had their electoral votes for Trump a couple days ago and then pulled the graphic. Pretty silly as it's clear they're going to Trump.

Michigan has been called for Trump.

It's an amazing score for Trump.

What about the "blue wall" liberals loved to brag about?
