Poll closing times!

Election Results Scorecard

[hershey]

Brit and Kristol were talking about Ohio, that only 800,000 votes were uncounted and Bush is leading by 170,000, so it would hard for Kerry to make up enough votes to win. But NH just went into Kerry's column. Nuts.

[FreedomNeocon]

UGH... now FOX reports NH goes skerry '@ 51/49 with 81% reporting... yet was 1hr late on 53/47 300,000+ BUSH LEAD in florida.

I'm gonna' PUKE ON FOX.

[maineman]

Very DULL night watching FOX. Way to scared to call ANY States.

[freepertoo]

(((Just imagine FR when Hillary runs in 2008.)))

We have a great deal of work to do in the next four years to keep that from happening. I'm wondering who the Republicans will run for the White House in 2008.

[Swanks]

If you straightline the numbers (I know - just a sanity check) looks to be when all votes in, Bush is up by 110,000 votes. Not quite the 537 the Gorebots launched lawsuits over in 2000.

But, lots of variables out there yet.

[AppyPappy]

I'm not watching TV, just FR

Bush up by 130k in OH now.

[onyx]

No, it's something called "Cai-oga" county,
and that Kerry has over 200,000 new voters there.

[Homer_J_Simpson]

A guy on Hugh Hewitt seems to think Minnesota can still flip to Bush.

[First post for Homey on this thread. Woo Hoo!]

Now if they could just do something about her mind. And her voice, sounds like fingernails scraping across a chalkboard.

[DestroytheDemocrats]

Gain in the Senate La!!

[kabar]

269 is a magic number. It will be a tie, which tosses the election into the House of Reps, which is controlled by the GOP.

[Shethink13]

Not all the provisional ballots will be legal ones!

It's my understanding that the provisional ballots will only come into play if the vote is close. Not sure of the percentage, but that's my recollection. I could be wrong though.

OREGON CALLED FOR KERRY --- CSPAN

[NImerc]

FNC says Vitter wins La. with 51%

[PoorMuttly]

"Thank you sir, a noble endeavor."

We must strive to do our part.

The burden of nobles oblige.

Pinch nice, Bell's 12 nice too.

Even Ballentine's and Famous Grouse have their place.

Onward heroes.

[anniegetyourgun]

He's got OH and NM and AK.....

[Poser]

NH is very depressing. It looks like we got a Rat for governor as well. Fortunately, we have huge Republican majorities in the State Senate and House and the Governor's Council.

[snowsislander]

It looks Iowa is really, really close:

Iowa race for President 
1582 of 2079 precincts - 76 percent
 	John F. Kerry	Dem	621,562 - 50 percent
 	George W. Bush (i)	Rep	607,649 - 49 percent
 	Ralph Nader	PEC	4,473 - 0 percent
 	Michael Badnarik	Lib	2,305 - 0 percent
 	Michael Peroutka	CST	1,018 - 0 percent
 	David Cobb	Grn	930 - 0 percent
 	James Harris	SWP	335 - 0 percent
 	Bill Van Auken	PEC	124 - 0 percent 

Nationwide, we are in very good shape:

Candidate	Electoral	States Won	Vote %	Votes
Bush	246	26	51%	44,905,797
Kerry	207	15	48%	42,093,988
