The Corner is ever so sloghtly suggesting that New Jersey could be put back in play.
Jersey is tightening up
Please pull Jim, this is a duplicate. Sorry!
To Everything (Turn, Turn, Turn)
There is a season (Turn, Turn, Turn)
And a time for every purpose, under Heaven
A time to be born, a time to die
A time to plant, a time to reap
A time to kill, a time to heal
A time to laugh, a time to weep
To Everything (Turn, Turn, Turn)
There is a season (Turn, Turn, Turn)
And a time for every purpose, under Heaven
Would be nice, but Bush is down 52-47 with 80% in, so not likely. It's all about FL and OH!
I said this about 1/2 hour ago. Freeper Rokke said it was too early; that the GOP counties were voting too heavily and the Dems too light. Find the thread! Somewhere here tonight I said NJ would be "re-opened." As will be NH.

what are the numbers?
It doesn't matter if Jersey turns, it would be nice if it did, but Bush is winning without Jersey.
Naw ... close but out of reach
Obviously it depends on the 20% of precincts that haven't come in yet. What are the demographics?
He's winning NOW without NJ, but there are many high electoral states remaining.
Bush will lose NJ by 2.5% to 3.5%. A respectable showing.
Unfortunately, Spadea lost to Holt, leaving the Republican party in the state geographically fractured in our representation.
Respectable indeed given all the New Yawkas that have moved into Middlesex and Monmouth county.
sKerry is up 140,000

NJ county by county. Hudson and Salem are the wild cards, exit polling from today and polls from the last few weeks show NJ is over. Count it for Kerry.
This is a state that the GOP should seriously contest in 2008. I'm confident that Bret Schundler will be the next governor of NJ, and hopefully that will make the GOP organization much stronger in four years.
It will get closer, but not enough to flip, I regret to say. I will look at the numbers more closely - it some other partial reporting counties it matters whether the urban or suburban precincts have reported - also the absentees may not be in the mix in some places.
