Obama wins CT

and DEL

MSNBC called Pennsylvania for Obama but that's probably like Fox News calling West Virginia for McCain.

DC, MD, NJ, MA also called, although those aren't surprises at all.

Umm...wow. They called New Hamshire as well, when CNN has not.

MSNBC just called PA for Obama

Obama:

Massachusetts
Connecticut
New York
Delaware
Vermont
Pennsylvania
Maryland
Illinois
D.C.
New Jersey
Maine

McCain:
Oklahoma
Tennessee
Kentucky
South Carolina

MSNBC basicly just said Obama won the election

We've already discussed that. It doesn't exist, so don't bring it up again.

Yeah but it's MSNBC, you have to take it with a grain of salt. Same thing with FOX.

/tk

They did that in about March.

lol

MSNBC jerks off to Obama, just like Fox does with Bush/McCain.

Fox says Tenn to McCain.

Fox called WV for McCain earlier as well.

Obama:

Massachusetts
Connecticut
New York
Delaware
Vermont
Pennsylvania
Maryland
Illinois
D.C.
New Jersey
Maine

McCain:
Oklahoma
Tennessee
Kentucky
South Carolina
West Virginia

Dole lost to Hagan in North Carolina.

So, basically CNN is breaking down the rural counties in several states showing that Obama is out performing Kerry in the areas Bush won. Changes from 60-40 Bush/Kerry to 53-47 McCain/Obama will kill McCain.

By the sounds of it, CNN just had a live interview with the girl who works at my McDonalds drive thru.

Okay I'm here

Yeah. She even asked "Want fries with that?"

Well Biden can rest easy, he won his senate race!

Glad you're here. We were just discussing Wolf Blitzers dreamy beard.

I know its early, but based on what is in so far, I wouldn't be surprised to see Florida go to Obama and Virginia go to McCain. Which is the opposite of what the trends predicted. (And would be a good trade for Obama obviously.)

Good (if only because of that insane ad).

Also of note, that was Jesse Helms' seat, according to some guy on Fox News.

Who's calling that race?

I didn't realize that Massachusetts has a ballot question of "Abolish dog racing?".

Haha! nice.

Fox did...

I've been flipping around. The people talking on Fox News a few minutes ago were talking as if Hagan won, so I guess Fox News called it.

101 million votes in 2000 and 121 million votes in 2004. How many in 2008?

They had it at 60-39 or something when I saw it.

yeah - i voted to abolish dog racing - i like dogs

and i voted to decriminalize pot possession (well, make it a fine vs. jailtime)

Hagan/Dole: Good to know, we're watching CNN. It's a pretty wide split, but that's a similar Dem/Rep split as the presidential and governor races, so didn't think it was good enough to call yet.

You are a good man, DT. Dog racing is really messed up.

BBC says that 97% of (eligible) African Americans in GA voted. Wow. (if I heard that right)

I agree with you. I was just surprised that it was an actual ballot question for citizens to vote on. I know the big one in Mass. is repealing the income tax.

If you think it is hard on the dogs, imagine how hard it is on the jockeys!

I haven't seen this posted but google has a really cool election map that allows you to scroll over states and check voting by counties.

That would only be a couple points higher than normal.

I hates it. So does my puppy.

Just got in and it does seem that Black Panther issue was much ado about nothing. That's a good thing (even though it means I was wrong earlier ;) )

I voted the same way. I also made my wife really mad by voting yes on prop #1 as well. (I voted yes on all three)

yeah - i'm checking it out

At least you admit it, Arlie. You're cool :)

CNN calls NH for Obama

Your wife likes to pay taxes for a bloated, mismanaged government?

MSNBC calls Hagan-Dole race (projecting Hagan will win)

Any Maryland-er's? I was wondering how the slots vote was going...

Fox just called PA for Obama. That means an Obama win is all but certain now.
