Thanks for posting this!
This is also a good guide for watching the election returns. Here is the link:

The most accurate thing in this article are the poll closing times. Take everything else with a major dose of salt. It's clearly written with a "Kerry is my candidate" perspective.
They want the drama to never end.
Thanks for the LINKS!
Bump!

Thanks Howlin!
Another great resource is right here at FR and all over the blogosphere. This year will be unique in that the new media, blogs for that matter, will be doing extensive coverage of the elections.
Keeping
More than 113,000 people from 119 countries made their choice at www.globalvote2004.org, handing Kerry a crushing win with 77 percent of the vote, a spokesman for the website said on Monday.
Third party candidates, including independent Ralph Nader (news - web sites), took nearly 14 percent of the vote, while Bush garnered a mere nine percent.
The results, a non-official tally of the world's view of the closely-fought presidential race, were released a day before Americans go to the polls in the real vote.
Polls in the United States reveal a dead heat between Bush and Kerry, but surfers who had their say at Globalvote leaned strongly towards the challenger:
"Iraq (news - web sites) was one of the few countries where Bush actually won and the Middle East voted 37 percent for Bush compared to a world average of 9.1 percent," a spokesman for the website said.
"We're not trying to tell Americans how to vote, we're just giving them feedback from the rest of the world. The outcome of the real vote affects non-US citizens enormously in the post-9/11 age," he added.
You're right. Been watching the news all night (well, as much as I can stomach) and they are trying to turn this into a horserace. They have also been attacking the electoral college system, systematically distorting it. I suspect that is one of the excuses they will use for Kerry.
I have figured one thing out, all the news media polls are closer than the others. CBS and ABC are using that to make it look like a 1% difference, which of course is easily inside the MOE. Sounds like they want ratings. :)
If Pennsylvania goes for Bush, it will be party time on FR!!
Clicking the link before 3PM EST will just take you to the CSPAN front page.
The election has been their bread and butter for so long.
Ad revenue is a HUGE money maker for them.
Thanks for the LINK!
I'll be breathing a HUUUUGH sigh of relief if PA goes Bush!
