Tell us how crowded/not crowded it was when you went to vote!

Did you see voter fraud and what is the talk about exit polling and the possible outcome?

[Founding Father]

73% precints in--Landrieu 51-49; up 24000 votes

[alnick]

Voters don't like their candidates ugly.

Only the stupid ones.

[WFTR]

Just for the record, I checked the numbers at a couple of precincts, and they reported a couple of "undervotes." Your prediction of a few votes not going to either candidate wasn't completely wrong. I guess a few votes will always be lost in some way. It would be wild if the race became close enough for the undervotes to have an influence. From what I saw, they were about 0.1%.

[Tennessean4Bush]

51-49 Land leads, 2,876 of 3,912 precincts reporting (73.5%)

Well I did make a sweeping statement so you are right but I have read that the ban on birth control is getting less and less accepted by catholics. Even priests aren't being so adamant about it. Every catholic I know uses or used birth control. A large percent, don't know numbers, of catholics have profound disagreements with the church on this. I guess it is part of things changing. But I did make a sweeping wrong statement.

Louisiana Secretary of State--Election Results by Parish Inquiry

[jla]

Come on now!
Terrell is going to win...she is too good not too!

Have some faith in the folks down in New Orleans!

[ABG(anybody but Gore)]

With the 3 GOP parishes holding out, and over half of Orleans in, this race is not over by a longshot.

[Holden Magroin]

Looks like Alexander might win that one. That idiot Holloway is spoiling it for Fletcher. I can just picture all the headlines tomorrow: "REPUBLICAN VICTORY IN NOVEMBER WAS FLUE, ANALYSTS AGREE," "DEMOCRAT REVIVAL IN SOUTH," etc.

[Darlin']

We had over 49,000 absentee ballots cast. I'm not sure when those are counted.

[Holden Magroin]

Looks like Alexander might win that one. That idiot Holloway is spoiling it for Fletcher. I can just picture all the headlines tomorrow: "REPUBLICAN VICTORY IN NOVEMBER WAS FLUKE, ANALYSTS AGREE," "DEMOCRAT REVIVAL IN SOUTH," etc.

Ugg! Thanks Though.....

[Conservababe]

I was born and raised in Louisiana. I can recognize a racist statement when I see one, as in your previous posts.

[StAthanasiustheGreat]

Hey, She's a first cousin of one of my Great Aunts.
