[Blazed]

Holy crap! Did you just see that Jessica chick in Holograph form on CNN? How'd they do that?

If i was blazed that would have tripped me out....

 

[Денг Гордон]

MSNBC reports:

North Carolina - TOO CLOSE TO CALL
Ohio - TOO EARLY TO CALL (Likely going Obama)
West Virginia - TOO EARLY TO CALL (Likely going to McCain)

 

[Денг Гордон]

Exit Polls:

Ohio - Obama 53 McCain 45
North Carolina - Obama 51 McCain 48
West Virginia - Obama 44 McCain 54

 

[Денг Гордон]

David Gregory says that Obama is leading in Ohio. That along with a too early to call status means that Barack Obama will be the 44th president of the United States.

 

[Денг Гордон]

Obama up 57 to 38 in Florida with over a million votes counted!

 

[o.iatlhawksfan]

fox news already called Kentucky for McCain with 10% in? what about other channels? What are you guys watching?

LOL they would be the first to proclaim McCain win something

Obama up 57 to 38 in Florida with over a million votes counted!

That's what's up

 

[Денг Гордон]

LOL they would be the first to proclaim McCain win something

MSNBC called it as polls closed as well.

MSNBC calls West Virginia for Jay Rockfeller.

 

[Minstrel]

Mitch McConnell in a race too close to call. That's a Senate seat that looked unlikely to go to the Democrats. If they win that race, that would be big.

 

[Денг Гордон]

MSNBC projects John McCain the winner of South Carolina.

John McCain 16 to Barack Obama 3

 

[Денг Гордон]

Obama up 58 to 42 in Florida with 2.1 million votes in!

 

[Денг Гордон]

Here we go, a big update coming up.

Oklahoma - McCain the projected winner.
Connecticut - Obama the projected winner.
New Hampshire - Obama the projected winner.

[Денг Гордон]

Florida - TOO CLOSE TO CALL
Missouri - TOO CLOSE TO CALL
Alabama - TOO EARLY TO CALL (favors McCain)
Mississippi - TOO EARLY TO CALL (favors McCain)

 

[Minstrel]

Losing Pennsylvania is hugely damaging to McCain. Almost all his paths to victory included Pennsylvania.

If Obama wins Ohio or Florida, game over.

 

[MARIS61]

Remember, other stations might call a state early, but it's not official until I call it in the Blazers OT forum.

Also, here's Olbermann's last campaign comment.

All so true, and highlights the subtleties of racism in certain segments of our society, mainly in our media.

McCain's only path to victory is holding Obama to the combined Kerry/Gore map at this point.

 

[Денг Гордон]

MSNBC reporting:

Arkansas - TOO EARLY TO CALL

 

[Денг Гордон]

Virginia is now TOO CLOSE TO CALL.

It doesn't look like a lock for Obama by any stretch. North Carolina looks a lot better for Obama at this point.

 

[Денг Гордон]

MSNBC just called Kay Hagan in North Carolina.

 

[Денг Гордон]

Exit Poll:

Arkansas - Obama 44 McCain 53

 

[Денг Гордон]

John McCain is the projected winner of Alabama.

Obama 103 to McCain 43

 

[Денг Гордон]

John McCain is the projected winner of Georgia.

Obama 103 to McCain 58

 

[Денг Гордон]

John McCain 51 Barack Obama 49 in Texas with about 3 million votes in.

 

[Денг Гордон]

Indiana is going to go down to the wire. This might be one you wanna mark up as a recount state, it's gonna be that close it looks like.

 

[Денг Гордон]

Chuck Todd says Indiana and Florida look good for Obama.

 

[Masbee]

Losing Pennsylvania is hugely damaging to McCain. Almost all his paths to victory included Pennsylvania.

If Obama wins Ohio or Florida, game over.

Yes. It's over. (Unless something is very screwy with the exit polling).

On my electoral map I have Obama with 256 electoral in the bag as I have CA, OR, WA, MN, WI, MI, IA & NY on top of what has been called.

He only needs 14 electoral from any of: FL, NC, VA, WV, OH, IN, LA, MO, MT, ND, SD, CO, NM, AZ or NV.

Obama was polling pretty well in CO & NM which together have 14 electoral. Ballgame. Don't even need any other tossup states now that he got Penn.

 

[Денг Гордон]

Colorado, New Mexico, and Iowa close in 4 minutes. This could be the election right here.

 

[Денг Гордон]

MSNBC reporting....

Kansas - John McCain projected winner.
New York - Barack Obama projected winner.
Michigan - Barack Obama projected winner.
Minnesota - Barack Obama projected winner.
Wisconsin - Barack Obama projected winner.
Rhode Island- Barack Obama projected winner.
North Dakota - John McCain projected winner.
Wyoming - John McCain projected winner.

Barack Obama 175 to McCain 70
