Us Election
Due to the nature of this topic, and the amount of traffic that's been going on here about this, I feel that it is important enough to give it it's own topic, and keep it stickied for a period of 4 days to encourage discussion of the results.
It's almost over...and Bush looks like he's in the lead.
Bush 197
Kerry 188
I think Bush has got it. He's got popular vote, and the California has already been counted.

Re: Us Election
The popular vote is 51-48, so I'm not sure why you're so confident that Bush has the popular vote wrapped up.
I wish Ohio would hurry up. It's all going to come down to that, because Florida will be in the Bush column. It could be a long couple of days...

Re: Us Election
Not even close to being done. It will be at least a week. Definitely going to be down to the wire. The states that are going republican/democrat could have been predicted this way 4 years ago. Nothing has been decided yet. It comes down the battleground states.

Re: Us Election
If Kerry doesn't win I will take hell at school, they would love to rub it in my face.
I told them if Bush wins I'm not even going to get up in the morning.

Re: Us Election
This all depends on what Ohio has to offer.... if Bush takes Ohio, Kerry lost

Re: Us Election
Right now it looks like 266 Bush and 211 Kerry... it looks like Bush has a good chance of winning Ohio
Now they are talking about the possibility of a tie.

Re: Us Election
I'm on fox news...but I've been switching around... looks like CNN has 249 - 196...
Mainly I'm watching Fox... I find their commentaries very entertaining.
Fox now says Bush has 269 and if he wins one more state he wins according to their results.
But Kerry can still tie.

Re: Us Election
NBC and FOX are projecting Bush to win Ohio.
-BUT-
The AP, Reuters, ABC, CNN, and CBS are NOT. I really have never seen this before. So, Bush fans, be optimistic, but don't call it yet. Kerry fans, think whatever you want, but don't concede yet.

Re: Us Election
Iowa won't be able to do it's final report due to broken voting machines and not opening their absentee ballots (CNN).

Re: Us Election
Bush is in a motorcade to his celebration rally...but Kerry never conceded the election. If he starts partying about how he won without Kerry conceding, that will be a first.
It looks like Bush will win by around 115,00 votes tonight. However, apparently there are a ton of provisional ballots that won't begin to be counted for 11 days that could swing the state back to Kerry. Looks like this won't be over until the middle of this month at least.

Re: Us Election
I think you and I are both watching CNN Doug, because they just got done talking about the 11 days.
The way I see it, right now Bush needs Ohio to end it and Kerry needs Ohio to stay in it.

Re: Us Election
Lol, actually, I'm all over the websites of every national news organization in the country, it seems.
And, Ohio will win it for either one. Kerry looks to be winning NV, MN, WI, and MI. He did look to be winning Iowa, though obviously we won't know for a while. NM looks to be in the Bush column.
Doug
Edit - We're seeing the same numbers though, because CNN is using raw AP numbers.
