They just extended voting hours at a Mexican supermarket to 10 PM. Close to 1,000 voters in line. If you have a panic button GOP, find it.

Mexican-Americans are building a wall to keep Donald Trump out. And he's going to pay for it.

And Democrats won the early voting in Washoe, where Republicans hold a registration edge.

Uh, oh: Dems won Washoe tonight for first time in four days, end up with 1,000-vote lead overall:

Dem - 6,058
GOP - 5,820
TOTAL - 16,373

1. Mexican-Americans are building a wall to keep Donald Trump out. And he's going to pay for it.

What a great line!

3. This is FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!

keep updating the tweets!!

4. Fingers crossed

Sounds like good news

5. And with Nevada, Clinton can top 270 even without FL, OH, NC, IA, NH, AZ, etc.

Worst case scenario: http://www.270towin.com/maps/k4wzn

21. Gore and Tim Russert got 2000 wrong. Not Florida, Florida, Florida.

Nevada, Nevada, Nevada.

You are right. Gore and Hillary can win by carrying Nevada.

29. That will make for a late night in the Eastern Time Zone. nt

30. Unless

What we're seeing in Nevada isn't a fluke.

Think about it.

[No Vested Interest]

31. Good point. nt

[Garrett78]

34. As soon as one of the east coast battleground states is called for Clinton, it's over.

But even without those, Clinton can top 270 with Colorado and Nevada (assuming she takes PA, MI, WI and the rest of the states she's expected to win).

Of course, I'll be hoping like hell that she takes FL, NC, OH and so on.

6. look for new conspiratorial "mexican supermarket" attacks from the right

mexican supermarkets on every corner!

[budkin]

9. Wow!

She's got that state locked!

[Awsi Dooger]

10. I'd love to be at a Las Vegas Albertsons tonight

Not only early voting but they sell "It's It" ice cream treats at Albertsons. Awesome. Two cookie wafers wrapping ice cream and dipped in chocolate. I can't get them here in Miami, or anywhere close.

12. Darn!

14. people voting at Cardenas Market

voting hours extended due to the large crowd!

[Quiet_Dem_Mom]

23. This pic! (Charlie Pierce retweet)

@josemacias8

A crowd of 50 people waiting outside Cardenas Market. Cheering up the last people coming out from voting. Latino vote woke up #earlyvote

:large

+++++
Wow!

[ffr]

26. Nice way to answer the call!

[ffr]

25. 57,000 as of 10PM. May be more?

No word if they still have people in line.

[Iskander]

28. What A Sight

Who knew that insulting an entire race of people would destroy a political party. The republican denial of reality gets more and more strange as years go by. In the minds of Trump and his ilk its always 1950 and nothing has changed. A straight denial of reality and a retreat into fantasy.

[Awsi Dooger]

36. 2018 Nevada governor's race may also be looking good

Nobody mentioned Jon Ralston's obscure tweet tonight regarding the 2018 governor's race. He said presumptive Democratic nominee Steve Sisolak raised $220 thousand in two weeks and now has $2 million on hand. That's vital in a midterm when the Nevada electorate is not as favorable.

Also, Ralston retweeted Catherine Cortez-Masto saying she was headed to the Cardenas Market, after it received publicity late tonight for so many people staying in line. I wouldn't be surprised at a campaign photo.

37. This is Democracy and Republicans should panic

[Hekate]

38. Geek, this is wonderful heartwarming news & photos. Hey Donald! I got your "Mexican Wall" for ya!

[0rganism]

39. i can only imagine the fun those lines could be

we vote by mail here in Oregon. it's a pretty slick system, i've been liking it for a long time now, but sometimes i miss going to the polling place and participating in shared decisions with fellow citizens.

from those photos, the voters are incredibly enthusiastic, having a great time being there, getting to hang with old friends and make new ones. it's a huge party and everyone's invited. tuesday is going to be amazing.

hey Nate, i think we found the "likely voter" model to use for this election.
we might just be using it for a couple more elections too.
