NBC is projecting:

Obama: Vermont
Romney: Kentucky, Indiana (I think)

Surprise, surprise. People in Kentucky continue to be misguided.

Yeah, as it stands 6 minutes in:

Obama has Vermont, Romney has Kentucky and Indiana.

3 votes for O, 19 for Mittens.

I'm more worked up for your election than I ever am for one in Canada.

I'm not boarding for awhile -- will have internet/ tv on board, but probably won't be tasking between both.

If you quote my post, you can keep the format...or maybe one of the admins can adjust the thread to give you the first post?

South Carolina (9) projected for Romney.

Finally voted after work.

I think it's funny when they show a 0% precinct reporting graphic...

Ohio exit poll: 52/48 women/men split, and Obama is winning among women 55 to 43, while losing men by just 46/52. Aggregate would be Obama 50.68% to 47.32%.

NC exit polls: women/men 55:45, women - 52/47 Obama, men - 46/51. Aggregate: 49.3 - 48.8 Obama. If NC is this close, even if Obama loses, it spells trouble for Romney.

The Exit polls look good for Obama. Hopefully, we will get some solid numbers from there soon.

Was just looking over the Virginia county results (thus far) vis-a-vis 2008...does look like an uptick in 'Red' support in the predictably-Red counties...but maybe not enough to overcome a 6% deficit

Author:  Floydboy [ Tue Nov 06, 2012 8:55 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: 2012 ELECTION DISCUSSION

Hmm 37% precincts reporting in Florida and Obama with a 3% lead...

Author:  torrino [ Tue Nov 06, 2012 8:55 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: 2012 ELECTION DISCUSSION

At around this time four years ago, it was roughly 56% McCain in VA.

North Carolina, Virginia, Ohio, Georgia remain too close to call.

Ugh I am a nervous wreck. I need wine.

I can tell graphics are just going to be horrible, in particular CBS' swing vote floor graphic which moves swing states from likely, leaning, and in the middle.

However, Scott Pelley will make it all watchable. Though I kind of want to see Fox News reaction when Romney loses.

Post subject:  Re: 2012 ELECTION DISCUSSION

Shepard Smith is probably going to take the lead on the FOX coverage, no?

Don't jinx it!!!

Post subject:  Re: 2012 ELECTION DISCUSSION

Georgia called for Romney. A much quicker call than in 2008.

Author:  jmovies [ Tue Nov 06, 2012 9:03 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: 2012 ELECTION DISCUSSION

I laugh at all these projected wins right when the polls close and 0% of the vote is in. I know there are exit polls and stuff like that but still...

Author:  Jedi Master Carr [ Tue Nov 06, 2012 9:04 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: 2012 ELECTION DISCUSSION

Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Delaware, Maryland, Illinois, and D.C. all called for Obama.
