The result was keep. There is no foreseeable way that this can result in a "delete" outcome, and it would just need to be recreated in less than a week anyway. Therefore, as Wikipedia is not a bureaucracy, I'm going ahead and closing this. The Bushranger One ping only 22:06, 26 December 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep per WP:CRYSTAL - "Individual scheduled or expected future events should be included only if the event is notable and almost certain to take place". I'm going out on a limb, but I think it will happen...  Lugnuts  Dick Laurent is dead 17:50, 26 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep. WP:CRYSTAL covers "unverifiable speculation" and all the events listed here (plus more, I'm about to add United States presidential election, 2016 to the list) are verified that they are taking place and articles have already been written about them. Besides, if we let this run its full course, it'll be 2016 when it's closed, which would negate the nominator's rationale. -- Tavix ( talk ) 17:53, 26 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep per above; we definitely have articles about things that are happening in 2016 in the United States; making a list of them at this point is just fine. Ivanvector 🍁 (talk) 19:13, 26 December 2015 (UTC)
