Popular Vote:
Bush - 51%
Kerry - 48%

Electoral:
Bush - 254
Kerry - 252

This means nothing yet...

Sukafitz, have you ever had anyone ever agree with you on these forums? (it's rhetorical)...

...Regardless of whether Bush wins or not, the number of angry responses from your posts is becoming increasingly irritating (but mostly just ironic :rolleyes: )...

Anyway, If Kerry wins Ohio, he wins the election.. also, it's not a leaning Bush....It's all up to Ohio now...whoever gets it wins...Go Bush! Go Kerry!

This means nothing yet...


no state has switched camps yet(maybe NH but that doesnt matter because new census figures has FL offsetting NH change.) looking decent for Bush but way too early to call.

Anyway, If Kerry wins Ohio, he wins the election.. also, it's not a leaning Bush....It's all up to Ohio now...whoever gets it wins...Go Bush! Go Kerry!]

I'm in Ohio and we are leaning Bush anywhere between 4-6% and Stark County which is a great national sampling is pro-Bush.

GO BUSH

Bush wins the Popular Vote and the Electoral College!!!

Bush wins Florida!!! Ohio is next!!!

Bush wins the Popular Vote and the Electoral College!!!
I'll call it at midnight EST - Bush carries Ohio & Florida by about 5% each. That all she wrote folks.

Goodnight, I am going to bed hoping I am wrong about what the next four years will be like for us all.

A lot of urban votes in Ohio (that are expected to be largely Democratic) have not been counted yet. I'm calling Florida for Bush which means who ever gets Ohio wins the election. I'm betting Ohio will be this year's Florida.

Look at the map, Ohio wants Bush.

Of course with Michael Moore and Roseanne in Cleveland,
I'm expecting them to call the lawyers for a recount. :rolleyes:

Might want to go over the the Ohio Secretary of State's website. Ohio isn't done yet. Your map is shyte.

Your map is dumb. I've been watching news and websites all night long buddy. Ohio has had a large Bush lead, but it's currently down to Bush 51, Kerry 48. Still, with urban votes to be counted.

You'll see, and then I'll laugh at you. :)

I'm not saying Kerry will win Ohio, I'm just saying that it's too close to call.

Where are you getting the info about what section of the state has already had their votes counted? I've been looking for something like that online and they did it a little on the TV but nothing much. Thx

The map I posted updates itself, and it's on Yahoo.

82% in. Looks like he might not quite make it :)

Wow, that takes me back to 2000.

That's 82% of the precincts, not 82% of the voters. The precincts aren't all the same size.

Granted, I should take that into consideration.

Its probably going to be another Florida type situation with Ohio. I just hope the citizen of Ohio learn from Florida miskate and gives their electorial votes to Kerry.

Granted, I should take that into consideration.
And Kerry's been gaining on Bush pretty steadily, so it won't be called until it's down within 95% I bet.

Fox just have ohio to Mr. Bush!!!

FOUR VOTES TO GO!!!

I'll admit to wanting Bush, but even I know to be skeptical of Fox's coverage.

I'm skeptical of everyone elses =/

Even though CBS has been very generous to Bush throughout most of the coverage tonight.

Yeah, I've been averaging out the different networks.

"Cheese it!"

Fox News has Called OH for GWB bringing him within 5 votes of winning re-election

Fox, CNN, MSNBC and CBS are my main sources...

They give states in different orders but they always end up saying the same thing.

I LOVE MAINE FOR GIVING MR. BUSH A VOTE :D

it's 138,000 now. Not really a steady gain
That's only a difference in 1% of the precincts. It's going to go up and down until they're all in. Ohio is the new Florida. We won't know until after every other state is said and done.

Fox News has Called OH for GWB bringing him within 5 votes of winning re-election
4.
And we've been over that. Keep up! (ok, I'm just a little hyper...need to stop with the soda.)

actually 3 votes =P

because of good 'ol maine

I LOVE MAINE FOR GIVING MR. BUSH A VOTE :D

All of Maine's votes are going to Kerry and NM is more than likely going Bush!

I think we can call this election for Bush for FOUR MORE YEARS!!!!!

That's only a difference in 1% of the precincts.
huh?

Schemantics! Bush wins re-elections

Americans are getting screwed over and they don't even know it. :headbang:
Oh, well time to pack my bags for Canada

Fox News has Called OH for GWB bringing him within 5 votes of winning re-election
Which means Kerry can only give up NH, HI, or AK (but not more than one of any of those)...and I don't see him winning NM, except that I think it's too early to call Ohio.

CSPAN gave Maine's 4th to Bush at first, but Kerry has it again. There are still 28% of Maine's precincts unreported, so that vote can go either way.


actually 3 votes =P
Three for a tie, then of course, Bush's lackeys choose him in.

Come On Alaska :d :d :d :d

Three for a tie, then of course, Bush's lackeys choose him in.

To be fair if Kerry had his lackeys there he would get selected

It will be:

Bush: 279
Kerry: 257

;)

You can write off Alaska! Bush will win Alaska and New Mexico!

Ok this I can agree with but as of right now, all 4 will go to Kerry!

LOL!!! Don't think this will happen. It won't go to the House!

To be fair if Kerry had his lackeys there he would get selected
Meh, probably. But the point is, he doesn't, and this would be the second time Bush did not have a clear majority, and yet was award the win...but I'm not expecting a tie. Either Kerry gets Ohio and wins clearly or Bush gets Ohio and wins clearly. NM and now maybe even NV and probably AK are all going Bush.

It's not close enough to go to the House.
Bush has the Popular Vote and the Electoral.

LOL!!! Don't think this will happen. It won't go to the House!
If it does, I'll shoot myself :mp5: :sniper: :gundge:

You're arguing all this assuming that Bush has Ohio in his pocket, but I still say that it's too early to call until we get inside 90% at least.

Meh, probably. But the point is, he doesn't, and this would be the second time Bush did not have a clear majority, and yet was award the win...but I'm not expecting a tie. .
I have issue with comments like this. People need to stop acting like if the tables were turned things wouldn't be going how they are (just opposite...you know.)

Welp, I am going to the Phillipines, or Japan. I hope yall have fun with Emporer Bush.

I think all the liberal news sites are trying to avoid the inevitable- giving Bush Ohio ;)

Bye!

It's not over yet. There a few ways it can still go to the House.

Did you guys watch and see how the Sox got to the world series? Didn't you watch the american league championship series?

Bush Got Alaska

Yep I did and BTW, Bush wins Alaska!

I think they're trying to avoid what CNN did in 2000. Calling a battleground state before it's even inside 90% is just stupid unless it's a clear majority of like more than 5 points.

Msnbc Projects Bush Wins Ohio!!

Yeah, but to be honest I have never ever liked the Red Sox

This is the most exhausted and depressed I've been since the Red Sox beat the Yankees in 7...but this takes precedence

Giving him 249 by my map...although, CSPAN is smart and didn't call Alaska at 44%.

I don't remember anything about the american league championship series going to the House...

Anyway, I live in Ohio. My family is responisible for... at least 25 of Bush's votes in Ohio.

And all we did was vote for him.

I saw Kerry get his ass booed!
:D
So you missed the whole part about the Yanks being up 3 games to none then ended up losing the series after being within 1 out of the victory numerous times?

51-49 in Ohio now.

the election could hinge on your very vote...

Baseball has nothing to do with politics =P

All we need now is that one vote from maine =/

51-49 in Ohio now.
AAARRRRGGGGHHHHHHH :headbang: :headbang:

Say what you will, this election is one vote from being over.

as of now in Iowa it's Kerry with 664,757 and Bush with 664597!!!!!!!!

RECOUNT RECOUNT!!! LOL

That's pretty damn close o_O

If New Mexico goes for Bush, he has it :) And it looks like it is! Go Bush!

Every time you guys start talking your trash about Ohio being in the bag, Ohio gets closer and closer, so keep talking, please.

If New Mexico goes for Bush, he has it :) And it looks like it is! Go Bush!
Yeah, I'm thinking he has it, also.

As soon as a network (MSNBC, FOX) calls it, I'm off to bed lol

http://www.mncollegedems.org/DarthBush.jpg

::sigh::I'm pretty much ready to throw in the towel. These two things express my emotions right now :headbang: :confused:

Go to bed everyone. Bush has obviously won this election.

:fluffle:

*Isn't ready to celebrate just yet*

Oh, I know he's won, I just want to see the victory.

It's right about now that I start to say "It's only an election"

:d

Are there any Democrats left on this thread...or in the country?

125,000
89%
A network besides Fox will call it soon enough probably

It is.... inevitable... Mr. Anderson.....

I have studied in detail the exit polling data all evening. (I do have a Masters degree and hopefully a Ph.D in poli-sci soon)

We were told by the pundits it was a case of "Anger vs. Fear" this turned out to not be the case from what I have concluded. It was a case of "Anger vs. God" those long line-ups may in fact of been social conservatives, not the anger vote against Bush.

Based on what I have been witness to tonight, coupled with my knowledge of government and the different types in the world. I believe we can safely say that the United States is safely on it's way to a theocracy. I suppose it was fun while it lasted.

Free world, watch your back!

At least in '08, I will be eligible to vote for the Edwards/Obama ticket! Then there's always Hillary...

I've been wondering who could possibly be on the GOP ticket in '08...

Powell/Rice?

Dole/Powell?

McCaine/Somebody

lol

MSNBC calls Ohio for Bush :)

Kerry now needs about 65%-70% of the remaining Ohio vote to win.

Don't think he can pull it out...

Bush definitely called it too early, but barring a high margin of provisional and/or absentee ballots for Kerry (far from impossible) or the discovery upon challenge of large scale irregularities (particularly on the part of Diebold, which pledged to deliver Ohio to Bush), he does almost certainly have the race won by the EVs at this point.

No, they just said that the numbers so far don't conclude anything, and as a Republican I must admit they don't. We have raw numbers, but not provisionals, write-ins, absentees, and some urban votes. Furthermore, from what I'm hearing there are also some legal challenges coming tomorrow in multiple states, including Ohio.
