CNN: Both parties "heavily blitzed" Indiana, voters stumble hungrily into polling places

 

[syllogism]

Mccain is going to crush Obama in Kentucky, but those numbers are worthless unless you know where they are from exactly.

 

[StoOgE]

Indiana looks like its going to be too close to call at close. Ive found rumors that Obama is up in exit pollings. Yeah, I know not reliable, but just keeping IN too close to call likely means Obamamania.

 

[borghe]

so what's the largest margin of victory for Electoral votes by a Presidential candidate?

highest electoral college votes: reagan 84 (as already said)
most states: tied, '84 reagan and '72 Nixon (each has 49 states)
highest recorded popular vote ever: Bush '04 (62M)
biggest popular vote difference recorded: harding 1920 (64% of the popular votes, not including washington)

anyone correct me if I'm wrong.

 

[Keylime]

Was Kentucky ever really in contention?

Absolutely not.

 

[Loudninja]

nvm

NYTimes headline: Polls Begin Closing in Final Hours of Epic Campaign

Damn that overused word.

Which one, they all seem overused to me.

Pennsylvania not expected to break records with turnout

This was an early voting year. States without it ain't going to have shit for turnout.

 

[Lost Fragment]

We know how the presidential will go there. Watch the senate:

More fun.

McConell only barely up, and no votes in Jefferson County (Louisivlle) have been counted yet. Excellent

more talk like this pleeeaase

 

[USD]

The president above Obama (Truman?) looks like John McCain.

I think they messed the order up, that's Eisenhower, and they have Truman coming after him.

 

[Tamanon]

Was Kentucky ever really in contention?

Not for Presidential race, but the Senate race might surprise based on turnout.

interesting that Lunsford is outperforming Obama by a ton in these early numbers.

 

[Marvie_3]

Does anybody have an msnnbc stream. CNN is terrible.

MSNBC's screen is a mess. Too much stuff going on!

 

[The Frankman]

+1 Obama in New York!!

[Blackhead]

are there streams for comedy central? I might miss The colbert and stewart show otherwise

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

Holy crap. You're right.

 

[ghibli99]

That hologram shit on CNN is pretty sick, until it broke. lol

Damn, missed that... I'm sure it'll be YouTube'd in a few minutes.

 

[PotatoeMasher]

interesting that Lunsford is outperforming Obama by a ton in these early numbers.

Obama never ran any ads in Kentucky (and he isn't a fan of coal). Lunsford and McConnell have saturated the airwaves for months.

 

[Nameless]

This feels exactly like New Years 2k. The rational side of me is saying there is really nothing to worry about, but the "You never fuckin know" side which is fully aware of the stupidity of human beings, is leaving a pretty big window open for nuclear winter to consume the earth tonight. And add in anxiousness x1000.

I need to be held

 

[Shirokun]

Alright, guys, I just sat down for the long haul. What, if anything, did I miss in the last five hours?

 

[RobotChant]

+5 for Soshalizm. That includes my sister who I forgot can vote this year, somehow figuring out she needed to vote and actually registering. Can't wait to get my spread of McCain's wealth.

+5 NO on 8. Not for equality (that's nice too) but because I just want to stop "parental rights" and forcefully teach kids about "them homosexuals" and other acts that would make baby jesus cry. I love voting.

Then i went out and to a Burrito joint .

 

[SUPREME1]

So.

Has it occurred to anyone how much history we've witnessed in our lives?

I mean, an Obama election, the Wall Street crash, 9/11, this is the shit we'll be telling our grandkids about.

LOL.
