* = Projected, at least.
This should help put some of those worried about King County at ease. A little.
Right now Rossi, taking the trends in each county into consideration, is going to win by 1,036 despite leading by a mere 304. This is all mathematical projection, but take a look.
I've got an Excel spreadsheet designed by my brother that tracks all counted votes, results by county, and ballots outstanding to project the winner. It updates every 10 minutes.

Thanks. I just put together a spreadsheet last night based upon the numbers the WA state site. I noticed that at one point the site had shown 82% turnout and then later it showed only 81%. It looks like there were some corrections last nite. Did anyone see any reports of double counting? I see Rossi winning by 580+ votes if the county trends continue. When I was looking I was surprised how many Rossi voters also voted for Kerry. It also was interesting that many who voted libertarian for governor also voted Kerry for President. The only thing I find alarming is the number of discarded ballots in King County. It looks like its over 22,000.
Ross leads by 64 up from 19 last nite.
