On another note, FOX is reporting Bush up by 2 million votes (Not that the number of votes actually matters)

I like looking at the county by county data. By that, I'm almost 100% certain Bush will carry Florida. He is still ahead, and the majority of Broward and Miami-Dade precincts are in. Those are the ones that were supposed to push Kerry over, and they haven't yet.
I'm starting to feel cautiously optimistic.

I know no one really cares. But Indiana just got its first Republican governor in 20 years. Our House votes are surprisingly close too.

Kerry is likely to take the popular vote in Maine (2 electoral votes), then the first congressional district in the more urban, liberal south. But Bush just might be able to take the northern congressional district which is more rural and conservative. In 2000 he only lost that district by 6,000 votes to Gore.

Heck, I don't know about NH, Mike. I'd buy anything right now. I am so going to send my husband to get me a beer.
Your bum is the greatest thing about you; so that in the beastliest sense, you are Pompey the Great. Repent, one and all.
[which is, of course, from Measure for Measure, and no reflection at all on Mike, who -- though I'm sure he has a fine bum -- has many greater things about him]

Ohio still too close, cause northern ohio was a friggin mess until an hour ago, so a LOT of those ballots haven't been counted. PA is Kerry, arizona for Bush... no surprises still.

CNN just annouced with much fanfare that Idaho went to Bush. You can tell they're running out of things to say.

Um... I know the polls just closed in Cali, but why did CNN just call California for Kerry with only, um, no precincts reporting in? Did I miss something?

As far as I can tell, Florida will be decisive. If Kerry takes Florida but not Ohio, he wins by one vote; if he takes Ohio but not Florida, he loses. That's based on me calling the states CNN won't commit on yet, and ignoring Hawaii and Alaska, which don't matter for this calculation. Unfortunately, Florida looks bad. Very bad.

Man, what twinky said about being glad it doesn't go by land area... looking at that map is scary. Of course, for people on the other side it probably sucks to see the teeny tiny areas in blue and know they are weighted so heavily.

Kerry has 3 electoral votes for Maine, but the 4th electoral vote looks like it's going to go to Bush.
