My map's showing an Obama lead in Texas with 1% counted. I'm guessing that's another Democratic county fluking up the numbers?

Well, maybe he could actually win it.

Nah, of course he won't, but I can dream. And it certainly illustrates the folly of jumping to conclusions based on early results.

33% of Kentucky in, McConnell up 20,000 +4%. Chambliss is leading by 70,000 +21% with 7% in.

Looks like the Republicans keep their leaders.

Most likely, E-V is reporting +52% McCain.

I love the FNC / MSNBC characterizations being thrown out there.

FNC: "Florida is like Moby Dick for the Democrats. They won't be happy unless they have it."
MSNBC: "Pennsylvania is fool's gold for Republicans!"

I think it's kind of weird that the media called Pennsylvania for Obama so quickly, especially since they've spent the last couple weeks acting as if McCain had a chance there.

Also, I'm watching the results for Virginia coming in, and Obama is behind by double digits. I know it's probably just because the rural count- er, "Real Virginia" is reporting first, but how's he doing relative to John Kerry four years ago?

As of now, Indiana is 52% McCain and 47% Obama, but Lake County hasn't reported yet which is a solidly Democratic county, and quite populous.

Remarkably, PORTER county went blue.

Many counties haven't even started to report in, most that have are rural and quite conservative. Indiana is too close to call, it could tip to Obama once the urbanized NW fully reports in.

New Hampshire called for Obama on CNN.

N. Hampshire just called for Barack.

MSNBC calls for Hagan, against Dole. Dole accused Hagan of being an Atheist and taking Godless Dollars from "Godless Americans" but got backlash.

Lol, Arkansas is too early to call.

Oh and 4 Senate seat pickups so far for the Democrats.

Good for the bitch. She needs her ass kicked in the polls for that 'lol atheism horror!' terroristic bullshit.

Yup, Indiannapolis still has probably another 100k+ votes to count and its trending huge towards Obama...and the first batch from Lake County comes in 12k Obama vs 4k McCain. This is gonna go down to the wire. I'm betting Washignton and Oregon get called before Indiana.

Georgia called for McCain by MSNBC

CNN projects Pennsylvania for Obama.

CNN calls Pennsylvania.

And Texas is 51% lead, I think for McCain but I'm not sure.

64-36 in favour of banning gay adoption in Arkansas, preliminary results only. Would make it the second state after Florida to do so.

50/50 tied for me, 1% counted, so it's not significant.

MSNBC has called that the Massachusetts repeal of Income Tax will not pass, and that Missouri will change Governor from Republican to Democrat.

Current Senate:
37 Democrats, +7 Projected
2 Independents
26 Republicans, +4 Projected
24 Uncalled

Current House:
34 Democrats
17 Republicans
384 Uncalled

I have electoral collage math at 107 Obama, 27 McCain based on CNN. Is that about right, or am I missing anything?

41% in, Obama leading 150,000 in Florida. 51% Obama, 49% McCain. Getting close. Panhandle still uncounted. Miami and Palm Beach mostly uncounted.

Wait, is there a Fox News ad on CNN?

102 - 34.

CNN themselves have 102/34.

MSNBC has it at 103-58 so far.

10 minutes to go until the next huge batch of states comes in.

CNN themselves have 102/34.[/quote]

107 was a typo. How much is S. Carolina worth? That's probably where I've got the discrepancy.
