Official election thread LIVE!

So we all watching the results come in?!

I would have had some beers in but I'm completely skint and can't afford any, so I'm just looking forward to an Obama victory because I heard US tax payers money will be redistributed across the world so even I get some rich American's hard earned money!

It would also be nice to see the first black/marxist/terrorist President in America!

Anyway, so far...

Obama is leading in New Hampshire and Maine and slightly in Indiana

McCain is winning in Kentucky

Obama has 38,174 votes; McCain has 45,789 votes!

McCain gets redneck Kentucky!

Obama get the enlightened Vermont!

SC goes to McCain.

PA to Obama. I think this is the end.

Still need a red state to turn blue yet!

Posted by josh4 on Nov-05-2008 01:12:

They're really not wasting time with these states. They're calling them with 0-1% precincts

Posted by George Smiley on Nov-05-2008 01:23:

Yea but suppose they're not really considered to be close?

I could call California now even tho the voting hasn't finished!

All Obama really needs is Ohio and Florida

CNN still isn't calling it. ABC and MSNBC have.

Posted by George Smiley on Nov-05-2008 01:39:

We currently have:

Obama - 103
McCain - 49

BBC use Associated Press data and data from their sister station in America, ABC

A pundit on CNN slipped that Obama will win haha

Looks like he's got Florida, but still a tad early to tell. With Pennsylvania and Florida, I really don't see how Obama can lose at this point, barring some big surprises.

CNN just gave Obama Pennsylvania. Totals from them are 102-34 from them.

These are still just based on exit polling, not real votes.

MSNBC just called Ohio for Obama. Watching CNN and MSNBC picture in picture and CNN is showing Hank Williams

Not completely. Even if Obama does win, by how much could make a difference. A complete blowout would be different than a healthy margin. Plus there is the 60 seat Senate majority Democrats are looking likely to get.

EDIT:

Virgina is a fucking dead heat. A few thousand votes could decide that state

Posted by jerZ07002 on Nov-05-2008 02:55:

Ohio is huge.

60 in the Senate isn't happening. McConnell losing had to happen and it didn't

Drudge Report called it for Obama. That's about as official as you can get
