Hmmmmm. I can get all of that, minus the pizza, from the same place so I might just do that. Yum!

But the pizza adds interestingness! Dip it in the curry.

Some thai places have thai fried chicken. Tasty shit if available.

I'm in California; voted in AZ by absentee ballot. I live in Tucson permanently though.

Same here! Comrade!

Wash it all down with this:

Naw, Obama has a 90.9% chance of winning. The only state in question is Florida, again.

"NYTimes collection of polls says Obama has a 90% chance of winning. No bias here folks, stay home Obama will win, no point in going out to vote."

Who decided the NYTimes was the be-all, end-all of election polls? It means nothing as Gore v. Bush, and Kerry v. Bush proved.

 

[UnblessedSoul]

I hope Obama wins, even though I don't live in the US, I don't like Romney he will screw over the middle and poor class for sure, even persuading businesses to tell their employees to vote otherwise they will lose their jobs? Lol

 

[Tobor]

CNN pondering 269-269. he he

Of course. It's the perfect outcome for them.

 

[Gucci Messiah]

Crazy talk on CNN. A Romney/Biden win? I never knew such a thing was even possible.

wut

Right hand, left hand?

I said enough!



























Right.

I was riding high on my Nate Silver election predictions until I came into this thread. WTF is this shit about Ohio? GAF, you got me all nervous now.

They want a tie in the worst way possible.

 

[DarkFlow]

Omg I made progress with my sister after showing her that Obama now video!

"Honestly I would be more an independent but they can't vote in primaries. Lesser of 2 evils for me. Not a fan of Obama at all"

I'm making progress.

Nate Silver is not the New York Times, fivethirtyeight was around before they bought it.

The Times doesn't conduct the polls.

Ohio will have to be unexpectedly close for these shenanigans to flip it. I am not scared.

 

[Yen]

Well bollocks to that, just read the small print and UK people can't watch The Daily Show live online. Any other sites that would be streaming it?

I don't know about Willard, but Obama is obviously both, at the same time.

Edit: Actually Romney would try and take Obama's position but fail miserably. That is of course after trying right and left, over and underhand.

If it ends up 269-269, the House votes for the President and the Senate votes for the VP...

What's the least partisan network to watch tonight?

CNN seems to be in the middle, kinda, but they're full of moronic technology, like holograms and just plain morons so much so that I feel like my brain is rotting away.

 

[Blader]

Crazy talk on CNN. A Romney/Biden win? I never knew such a thing was even possible.

Possible, but only as the unlikeliest of unlikely scenarios.

 

[ivysaur12]

Drudge is reporting some initial exit polls. Not sure how much salt you want for those.

omg

Anyone know how you make that Gaf livethread extension update the thread more often? It's at 60 seconds now which is obviously too slow for this thread.

 

[TheExecutive]

Why did you include PA? Wasn't aware of anything about medical marijuana on the ballot?

Good luck to all of the states who have educated themselves and are creating progressive change for the future: WA, OR, CO, AR, NY, OH, Il, PA, and MA.

Voted for 64 in CO. I hear its close

 

[Chiggs]

I heard this on NPR last weekend. If there's a tie in the Electorate (I think?) then the House picks the President and the Senate picks the VP. Depending on majority, Romney/Biden.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong here.

If Nova, Henrico, Richmond, and Hampton Roads/Norfolk turned out, he'll get it.

Hey! Don't forget old Montgomery county! We're a speck of blue in a sea of red way down here.

 

[Gucci Messiah]

Ohio will have to be unexpectedly close for these shenanigans to flip it. I am not scared.

I live here and the republican base is not only very well organized but also very enthusiastic. I am a little worried but Obama should carry the state based off the polling data. Also, minorities are showing up in big numbers in Columbus, hopefully it is the same in Cincy, Cleveland, Toledo, etc

Someone said it could technically also be Romney/Obama! Is that true?

Outside USA, republicans wouldn´t have the slightest chance. Would recommend the movie Bobby on that "employer pressure" topic.

 

[JeTmAn81]

LOL

Yaddle? Aw, no...

 

[indigo-cyclops]

Funny you should say that; my parents, wife and I discussed it over dinner on Saturday and that's exactly where we ended up.

I'm not sure on that. All I heard was House = President pick, Senate = VP.

 

[DrForester]

Crazy talk on CNN. A Romney/Biden win? I never knew such a thing was even possible.

The way the swing states add up, there are a few different combinations that could result in a 269/269 EC tie. While there is a better chance of it this year than in previous elections, it's still a very, very unlikely outcome.

If a tie were to occur, the incoming congress (one elected today) will chose the president, and the incoming Senate would pick the VP. Since it is likely that Republicans will retain control of the Congress, and Democrats the Senate, the likely outcome of a tie would be a Romney/Biden administration.

Also if they can't figure it out in Congress, Hello President John Boehner.

 

[TheContact]

Good luck to all of the states who have educated themselves and are creating progressive change for the future: WA, OR, CO, AR, NY, OH, Il, PA, and MA.

I voted Yes for legalization in MA today. Feels good, but the rules aren't the same as they are in CO and CA currently. It doesn't look like can be abused, learning from the "mistakes" of the former 2 states. There's way more regulation behind it.

Given that, I don't know what kind of heartless, ignorant person would vote No.

I really hope it passes.

You're conflating an editorial endorsement with a poll analysis, an author who writes for the New York Times with their editorial board, and a descriptive analysis with a normative prescription not to vote. That's three separate errors in a two sentence post.

 

[Kusagari]

Yes, the Senate could nominate Obama for VP instead of Biden for the lulz.

The absurdity value of it means it is the only way I'd want Romney to become President.

I'm aware of that, but he is associated with them.

I know, but the New York Times has an obvious bias so trusting there affiliates would be like you trusting Foxnews.

 

[JeTmAn81]

I voted no on marijuana in Washington State. I still haven't heard an argument for why legal, easy access to recreational pot would be good for the people of this state.
