Here we go...
The Democrat nominee needs 2,025 to win.
The Republican nominee needs 1,191 to win.
Please don't be. You chose to be proactive rather than reactive...and that's usually a better course of action, IMO.
Okay...sure:)
heh ... i just thought it was funny.
What is a conservative to do with the three large RINOs left in the race?
did you see the size of the ad Fox is running at the top of the page on Drudge?? LOL!
yay! every vote counts.
i only wish all republicans had united to stop mccain hillary and obama. *cries a tiny tear at the thought of an obama/hillary presidency*
but there is still a chace
Polls are closed now in New York and New Jersey. No early calls on the Republican side, that’s not good news for McCain who was touting a +20 poll lead in those states. He’ll probably still win, but it may be surprisingly close.
About Huckabee, very soon he will become an obstacle to McCain, if he continues to hold delegates - he may be able to keep Romney from winning, but he’ll keep McCain from winning too. That buys Romney time until the convention to continure to build support in the base.
If Mitt does well enough tonight and in Texas (he’s on the air here starting today!) even if he doesn’t win in delegate count he can “run out the clock” on the primaries, and work the polls from now till the convention. If the current trends hold, the entire establishment will turn on a dime as soon as it looks like McCain may not be able to close the deal.
8pm for NJ.
some dude on XM POTUS just said CA using paper ballots again raises the question of impropriety tonight
What a waste. He isn’t in the race.
Another vote for McCain
Especially for a primary, huh?
I have to get back on the phones here.
9pm in NY
When you say “paper ballots” does that include ink-a-blot? That’s what we use in Southeast L.A. county.
McCain’s lead over Romney down to 36-32, 0% reporting...
City Attorney Concerned About L.A. Voter Confusion
Los Angeles City Attorney Rocky Delgadillo Tuesday issued the following statement in the wake of numerous reports of wide-spread nonpartisan voter confusion over Los Angeles County’s “double bubble” voter ballot:
“I have heard numerous reports from voters throughout the City of Los Angeles which point to wide-spread voter confusion over Los Angeles County’s so-called ‘double-bubble’ Decline-to-State non-partisan voter ballot. We understand this ballot is unique to the County of Los Angeles.
“In light of these reports, I am calling upon Secretary of State Debra Bowen and L.A. County Registrar Dean Logan to review the county’s unique and potentially confusing ballot design.
“It would be unfortunate if non-partisan voters, confused by the county’s unique “double bubble” ballot design, did not have their vote counted.
“I urge the Secretary of State and County Registrar to do everything within their power to ensure that every vote is counted, and to carefully weigh voter intent against this confusing Los Angeles County ballot design.
“Los Angeles’ non-partisan voters must not be disenfranchised because of a confusing ballot design.”
Romney also has the money to last longer than McCain and Huckabroke!
All the counties that bought computerized voting machines had to pull them after someone proved they could be hacked.
... and probably MSM calling it for McCain. (sarcasm)
Notable consequentialists include Milton Friedman, Ludwig von Mises, and Friedrich Hayek.
“I think polls in NY close at 9pm.”
Dammit, I think you’re right - I was listening to Levin and he said 7, I’ll have to do a better job of “source checking!”
