Media still won't call Iowa or New Mexico for Bush, but...

Take CNN (please!):

Iowa

Bush (Incumbent): 743,621 50%
Kerry: 730,067 49%

That's about 13,000 votes of 774,000, for a 1.7% margin for Bush.


New Mexico:

Bush(Incumbent) 363,369 50%
Kerry: 351,070 49%

That's about 12,000 votes out of 714,000, for a 1.6% margin for Bush.

But...

New Hampshire

Kerry: 340,019 50%
Bush(Incumbent): 330,848 49%

That's a 9,000 vote margin of about 671,000 votes between them, for a 1.3% margin for Kerry.


Wisconsin

Kerry:1,490,101 50%
Bush (Incumbent): 1,477,405 49%

That's about 13,000 votes out of almost 3 million, or a 0.4% margin for Kerry.

So President Bush has bigger margins in Iowa in New Mexico than Kerry has in Wisconsin and New Hampshire, yet Kerry gets the calls while he stalls on nis concession speech.

The media's judgment calls are worthless......

We don't need to be told what we can see for ourselves.

has Wisconsin counted absentee and military ballots?

even after the acceptance speech, Rove should fight for every state.

I know it doesn't make sense. I wonder if there are military ballots for New Hampshire and Wisconsin. It would be a hoot to also see those states go Red.

Bush and Kerry to speak per Fox News now.

we care, because there is another election in 2008, and if there is fraud in these states or structural procedures there to exclude votes for us - we want to find out NOW.

People stop sweating this. There are still more absentees out that could effect the races in both NM and Iowa, and in both states they have precints unaccounted for.

They are waiting for the dead voter's ballots to be counted three times.

The same old neo-Marxists that run our MSM are deliberatgely stone-walling. As soon as it is official that Kerrey has conceded, the MSM will recognise that Bush won the states he has obviously won.
