Live 2008 Presidential election thread - McCain v Obama

[BlueFan4]

FOX has

Obama 82

McCain 39

 

[Juddism]

CNN projects NH for Obama.

 

[BlueFan4]

now have him 103 to 45

 

[Dixie Flatline]

Too early to call in Arkansas, which has just closed, according to MSNBC.

MSNBC still saying that Indiana and Florida are still too close to call but signs point to a Obama win in both states.

 

[Bomber32]

ABC projects win in Alabama to McCain.

 

[Z_K]

Predicts shmedicks. I want to see proper blue states, America. Get your shit together.

 

[DaveW]

BBC calls Arkansas and Alabama for McCain.

Still no call on Mississippi curiously.

Obama 103
McCain 48

 

[A Living God]

I retract my earlier statement concerning Florida. It's still too close to call.

Margin down to 5%

 

[Dixie Flatline]

Georgia and Alabama for McCain, according to MSNBC.

 

[Juddism]

BBC calls Arkansas and Alabama for McCain.

Still no call on Mississippi curiously.

Obama 103
McCain 48

why don't you just call NY & CA too?

189 for Obama sounds better.

 

[Bomber32]

CNN projects Pennsylvania for Obama.

 

[A Living God]

McCain back in front of the national popular vote.

Florida margin down to 3.

 

[Freo Big Fella]

CNN projects PA for Obama.

 

[DaveW]

We could be just 15 minutes away from this being called...

If Obama sweeps the upper midwest and wins Colorado and New Mexico in the south-west then it's probably all over.

who else has about 30 browsers open with various election sites? I'm getting NO work done whatsoever

 

[Z_K]

CNN projects PA for Obama.

Excellent.

 

[DaveW]

Fox and NBC have called Georgia for McCain.

I'll wait for the BBC.

 

[Freo Big Fella]

Numbers coming out of Missouri. McCain ahead by just under three thousand votes. None of the Illinois border counties reporting in yet though.

I came in at 7am with a plan to get some work done before 10am leaving some time for election related browsing. Laughable. Had one meeting, left it citing a huge workload and have a staff member off-line and burrowing through websites aswell.

Same here LUC

GO OBAMA (I have an Ilove Obama T shirt.....so wearing it today!!)

 

[Dixie Flatline]

Done no work for the last 2 hours. I just hope my work proxy servers don't record the gigabytes flowing into my computer given I'm streaming MSNBC coverage and have a few different election sites open.

 

[Alpha1]

Looks like it's getting tight again. Never been so nervous about a election in my life before.

 

[waspy]

Atlanta is coming in now. Obama up by 21 points with 7% counted, so Gerogia might get closer.

Lake county (Indiana) is also reporting, 48 point lead for Obama there so far.

 

[bob_neil]

looking good, but just need one of these big states to turn blue! hopefully the floodgates are about to buckle.
