Election Day Thread

[Kurp]

Why does CNN have 199 electoral votes while other places say 200? I can't figure out the difference.

[Aerin]

C'mon Indiana, now I want Missouri too. I'm fucking greedy and I don't care.

Same, I want Obama to win Virginia, Indiana, and Florida to add insult to injury.

[kuronosan]

Obama leading VA by 10,000 now. I think CNN is about to call it.

Obama gaining ground in IN... 7,000 votes behind.

McCain's taking TX and KS.

Edit: Scratch that, Obama beginning to gain ground in MO.

[Aerin]

Discuss.

Sorry buddy, look up. Still funny though.

[0ni0n]

I really wonder how bad this will get for McCain. 300-238? 320-218?

I really wonder how bad this will get for McCain. 300-238? 320-218? This must make McCain reminiscent of his POW days.

This just in: McCain tells America he is a hero of the election for telling his friends to vote for Obama.

Edit:

CNN gives IA to Obama. UT and KS to McCain. 206 to 89 now.

Not really surprised here, nor disappointed. Though I voted for McCain, I believe Obama has a lot of potential, moreso with a senate and most likely house that will support him. I'm actually somewhat surprised McCain has gotten as much as he has in a lot of places, I really didn't expect anything in Bush's wake.

Maybe one of Maine's is too close to call?

[Beckwin]

IOWA TO OBAMA

and it don't stop

[Drex]

This just in: McCain suggests we suspend the vote tallying, get wasted, and try counting again

[archibaldcrane]

I'm guessing at least 335 Obama. Possibly 350, depending on IN and MO.

[Aerin]

54 Dem senate seats now

[kuronosan]

Less than 5,000 vote difference in IN now... MO getting closer by about 19,000 votes.

[kuronosan]

CNN fixed their numbers.

Obama (207), McCain (89)

For the lulz please Florida >:3

[Obev]

I'm guessing at least 335 Obama. Possibly 350, depending on IN and MO.

BBC just predicted "between 330 and 370."

[kuronosan]

CNN going to call TX for McCain soon... IN still counting their last 2 counties... real real close.

They'll probably call NC and VA for Obama any minute now.

[archibaldcrane]

Indiana gets further away, then takes a big jump forward when more Lake County precincts report, but Lake County is 74% reported now, not much more room to go to hold a lead over the rest of the state.

Going to be super fucking close.

A Democrat president and majority in both houses of Congress. The stars are in alignment for the Democrats.

[BadKarma]
