Official OT Election Thread - What a ride!

[Susan]

CNN called NC a Bush state.

If Bush can get PA, he'll be in much better shape (high electoral votes). If not, it could be tough for him.

 

[Shuxclams]

I didnt think it was possible....but can gore actually win???:Q

Bush 130 11 53 %
Gore 119 10 45 %

 

[Adul]

But that sooo old fasion Russ

 

[Balt]

I'm beginning to think more and more that absentee ballots may in fact change the outcome, as some are saying.

 

[somethingwitty]

CNN still says NC is too close to call

 

[Shuxclams]

I am rooting for a tie! Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

[somethingwitty]

FOX (yes, i know, it's fox) calls it 130-123 now...

 

[IBhacknU]

What does this mean?

CNN estimates Al Gore wins Maine, picks up 3 of 4 electoral votes
This is from CNN. I thought if someone wins the state, they get all the votes for that state?

 

[Russ]

Balt,

I don't know about other states, but here in Washington the estimate is that 50% voted by mail.

A few states distribute their electoral votes proportionally.

 

[Adul]

Bush 130 11 53 %
Gore 122 11 45 %

 

[DirkBelig]

This is weird. According to the ABCNews.com Real Time Vote Tally site, Bush is up 50%-48% in FLORIDA. HTF do you get 50% of the vote and get called a loser?!?

 

[abracadabra1]

just wondering- why is gore a liar?

also, the environment is by far the most important factor for me. bush has polluter written all over his goddamn forehead.

gore's going to win- i can't wait!

 

[abracadabra1]

btw, how's the green party looking?

 

[dc]

DirkBelig: i was wondering the same thing. the voting system sucks. argh.

 

[Entity]

I live in Washington and voted via absentee ballot (mail). BTW, Russ, CNN says Tn is too close to call; where'd you hear he lost?

[Wipeout667]

Green party is disappointing so far.

 

[ICyourNipple]

Naderites were all talk no walk.

 

[Pennstate]

Ok, all these projections are based on EXIT POLLS. NOT actual precint counts.

 

[Slap]

Man Gore is looking good. The FL win may be the key.

 

[NesuD]

dirk I am wondering the same thing on every siter i am looking at right now for michigan Bush is ahead with 1-3 percent of the precincts in yet they say gore won it already looks like they are trying to influence the west coast again

 

[Entity]

Pennstate,

We understand that. At least, I hope most people do. I do.

One good thing about this race: voter turnout is good so far this year.

[Futuramatic]

MSNBC predicts Gore for FL...

Yet after 12% of vote counted.. Bush is up (similar thing in Michigan).

I am about to turn the TV off...

 

[Warpo]

wow, NADAR IS IN THE LEAD NOW!
