Virginia not looking good for Obama.

The polls are going to close late in his NoVa stronghold.

 

[Vyer]

VA suspending result reporting.

 

[Stumpokapow]

As a Canadian who isn't super familiar with the US political system, I have a question:

I am looking at Huffington Post's live election results, and they are reporting wins for Romney and Obama in certain states. When I look down the included results chart at these states, they often say that less than 10% of the ridings have reported in. How can they call a win if so many ridings have yet to report?

Imagine a state with two counties. One county typically votes 70-30 Democratic, it's called Big City County. One county typically votes 55-45 Republican, it's called Farmer Land County. Big City County has way more people. Imagine that Farmer Land County is 25% in and is going 50-50 (and we have no reason to believe other precincts yet to report in the county are going to be materially different). Do you need more information to call the state?

poor Linda

 

[Dartastic]

Any idea what's up with Elizabeth Warren?

Virginia not looking good for Obama.

NoVA isn't completely in yet. Don't count Virginia out.

 

[TheContact]

How many Romney supporters are watching something other than Fox news?

 

[soundahfekz]

Romney has this shit in the bag, so ready to taste tears.

Oh boy, let's save this one

 

[Trojita]

So what are the avatar/ban bets we have for the result?

 

[Xeke]

Don't disappoint me Pennsylvania.

There is literally 1 rural PA county reporting now.

 

[rbanke]

Well ..if/inevitably when FL fucks up I'll make sure to cross you from my 'list'.

Appreciated.

 

[Brinbe]

People may be voting until 11 pm in VA, FUCKING RELAX, Bams got it.

And PA is too early to call, he has that too.

 

[Schattenjäger]

Linda McMahon's commercials were so annoying

 

[GotEmRunnin]

FL you have the chance to right many years of wrong's.

 

[Higgy]

At this point in the lead in Ohio is much smaller then at the same point in 2008. He was up by 33 in 2008 and this time it's only 18.

 

[JABEE]

Huckabee still talking bullshit about Chick Fil A on FOX News, LOL. I guess any subject right now is better than DEM RESULTS.

Chicken endorsement deal

 

[Downhome]

Linda McMahon spent $100 million dollars???

She spent wayyyyyyyyyyy more than the entire WWE payroll. That's crazy.

 

[Phreaker]

CNN need to pick the NC map, I want details

 

[KuwabaraTheMan]

Why are people acting like Obama already won? Isnt Romney up by a fair but?

He's not doing well enough in the swing states to have a realistic shot. He's 'up' in states that he was going to win anyways, and which voted for McCain in 2008.

 

[TheExecutive]

Romney has this shit in the bag, so ready to taste tears.

I would be VERY nervous about Ohio if I were a Romney supporter.

 

[Sickboy007]

Any idea what's up with Elizabeth Warren?

She's up.

 

[PoweredBySoy]

WOW @ the red on the CNN map right now.

That's not really how it works.

 

[fuzzyreactor]

Romney has this shit in the bag, so ready to taste tears.

lol

 

[Plinko]

I can't believe how good Florida is looking.

 

[Stumpokapow]

At this point in the lead in Ohio is much smaller then at the same point in 2008. He was up by 33 in 2008 and this time it's only 18.

Sounds like Obama lost Ohio by 15 points, and with it, the election.

 

[Divvy]

BBC said that Romney's internal polls showed Obama up in Ohio by 5 points

 

[Dartastic]

She's up.

Oh good. By a good amount?

 

[ActStriker]

Any idea what's up with Elizabeth Warren?

Still ridiculously close, but still around 1-2% reporting

 

[Empty]

Any idea what's up with Elizabeth Warren?

down 52-48 with only 2% reporting. so too early.

polling has her comfortably winning though

 

[Hawkian]

FL you have the chance to right many years of wrong's

we worked very hard.

 

[WalkMan]

Virginia not looking good for Obama.

Most of the Obama votes come from Arlington county and Fairfax county.

 

[Carlisle]

Obama is doing well in NC. Not alot of votes counted yet in Charlotte, Durham, and Boone, means a good number of democrat votes to be counted!

If Obama takes a Carolina and not Virginia I won't know what to think anymore.

I'm watching CNN.

 

[The Lamonster]

Guy that was just on abc is totally a gaffer

 

[Shard]

I wonder how much CNN spent on election coverage, it seems they puled out all the stops for tonight budget wise.

 

[Doc Holliday]

New York and California will take care of the popular vote.

 

[methane47]

I'm not going to lie, i'm pretty worried about this election.

 

[Wiz]

Any idea what's up with Elizabeth Warren?

1% of the vote is in she's behind 51-49

 

[The Mana Legend]

Can we like, make Election Day an official day off holiday or something, please? There shouldn't be lines of thousands of voters this late.

 

[Rebel Leader]

CNN apparently gonna get new FL numbers

 

[brochiller]

Don't disappoint me Pennsylvania.

Wow I posted almost this exact same thing a few pages back.

We better not let Obama lose.

 

[slightconfuse]

Yes Linda lost!

 

[gamergirly]

She spent wayyyyyyyyyyy more than the entire WWE payroll. That's crazy.

100 million dollars is crazy. Just wasted money. Give that money to us Gaffers

Virginia not looking good for Obama.

They haven't even starting counting the heavily populated and Democratic northern part of the state dude

 

[Blastoise]

Sucks if you were red/blue colorblind.

 

[Carlisle]

My vote is so counting this year.

 

[Onemic]

Sounds like Obama lost Ohio by 15 points, and with it, the election.

So you think Romneys got this in the bag?

 

[Kastrioti]

So if Romney won the popular vote, but lost the elections, how many Republicans will pretend 2000 never happened?

If this would President Obama reverse his 2004 position?
