You are aware that popular vote is meaningless, right?

Yes, but polls only indicated a 1% lead for Romney, so a 4.7% is very bad news for team Obama if it holds.

I was pleased to see a lot of young black females out voting today. Even in the ghetto, this generation gets involved and will be the future leaders of this country, hopefully.

Nelson predicted to be Senator in FL again

We really need to get rid of Nelson (D) here.

Good to hear! Great Americans!

Looks like Obama's going to win tonight. He's ahead by quite a bit in Ohio.

...

Yeah but California and New York haven't even been counted yet.

When a bunch of Southern states vote first, yeah, the Republican candidate is going to surge in popular vote...

Will have to see how New York and California change that.

Romney up big in Virginia, Obama up big in Ohio, but too close to call either race.

 

[drjean]

I'm hoping FL goes to Romney... since it's so close now...but that probably includes early and absentee voting, which historically would be Democrats...

Unfortunately you're correct...if they went off of the popular vote, democrats would lose a lot more.

Look at the electoral voteopulation ratios of Texas vs California and you'll see that it's skewed in the liberal favor.

Not really. Ohio had a lot of early voting.

If popular vote mattered, we'd have had 8 amazing years under Al Gore.

Looking at the reporting counties in OH, most of those still out are Republican heavy

Hopefully. The current votes coming in don't look promising though.

WOW this is probably the most communication regarding the USA that Obama has listened to in 4 years!
