that's from two small towns in new hampshire that always releases their votes early.

32 - 16 obama - mccain. that's total votes not %.

Man, I wish I lived there. The only line longer than at the polling place is the line in front of the liquor store waiting for the polls to close.

 

[chaim]

Oh-oh, it looks like its a McCain (60% - Obama 38%) landslide now!

Ya think? Less than 2 % of precints counted. Also, you can't believe "exit polls". In years past, they have not proven accurate....primarily because it's completely voluntary.

a) I was being sarcastic (thus the smiley)
b) This is not exit poll data, it is precinct data.

Dead heat on popular vote

Indiana is looking strong for Obama:

Just looking at some of the places where we have results in so far. Obama is substantially outperforming Kerry -- which is what he needs to do to win the state, of course, but the differences are pretty substantial.

Steuben: Kerry 34%, Obama 42%
DeKalb: Kerry 31%, Obama 38%
Knox: Kerry 36%, Obama 54%
Marshall: Kerry 31%, Obama 50%

Obama swinging into the lead in florida early, but doesn't mean much this early.

Obama looks like he has indiana. So much blue and the areas kerry won aren't even in yet.

Dems picked up a Senate seat in Virginia:

Looks like Fox is calling Delaware for Obama and WV for McCain.

Stupid computer.

McCain breaks 1 million popular votes!

Popular vote dead heat again.

The commentary on the BBC is suprisingly good. But David Dimbleby gets on my nerves. He always has. I had to stop watching Question Time because I just couldn't stand the guy.

And yeah, I heard that Fox's system was quite sharp on picking up the results. Still not using it though

 

[Staccato]

Wait a minute...am I reading these results right, is Obama actually ahead in South Carolina?!
