94% of Iowa in and Bush up 50% to 49%, and about a 15,000 vote lead. And the lead has been widening.

WVRed · 11-03-2004, 01:57 AM

Im headed to the TV and laying down on the couch, hopefully I wake up to hear Iowa and/or New Mexico called.

Night all.

And, in Nevada, candidate "None of These" (2,314 votes) is in a heated race for third with Ralph Nader (3,045 votes).

When asked if the candidate would challenge via the court system if he lost such a close battle for third, None of These replied, "Duh? Hey, I don't know what I want, but I sure as HELL don't want to lose to Ralph-freakin'-Nader."

Oh, I agree Mike. That is why Kerry's lawyers are heading to Ohio and not N.M., Iowa, or Nevada.

LvJ · 11-03-2004, 01:58 AM

Later WV! I'm about to do the same...

MWM · 11-03-2004, 02:00 AM

I can't imagine what the actual candidates feel like throughout all this. Can you imagine the emotional roller coaster John Kerry has gone through today?

GAC · 11-03-2004, 02:03 AM

And what does this say about exit pols that earlier in the day said that Kerry was winning/leading pretty much every where?

And it looks like the Repubs are on their way to strengthening their hold on both the House and the Senate.

Do you think Theresa will punch him on the mouth if he loses? :allovrjr:

96% reporting in Ohio and the gap is now 122k.

SteelSD · 11-03-2004, 02:06 AM

Ok. To win, Kerry would need to successfully challenge Ohio, and pick up an additional 39 Electoral votes.

He'll get 10 from Minnesota. 17 from Michigan. He'd need Wisconsin (10) and Hawaii (4) to put him over the top. That'd leave him at 272.

Let's give Nevada to Bush (5 EV) as well as Iowa (7) and New Mexico (5). That would put Bush (without Ohio) at 266 Electoral Votes.

That would also leave our heads spinning because the challenges wouldn't stop after Ohio if Kerry's people were successful there. It could literally take months (plural) to sort out.

Unassisted · 11-03-2004, 02:07 AM

Drudge is convinced of the outcome.

GAC · 11-03-2004, 02:07 AM

Bush's lead has grown in Ohio to 125,000

jmcclain19 · 11-03-2004, 02:07 AM

I'm flipping back and forth

Bush appears to have the overall popular vote, 52-47. Kerry appears to be fighting to the last man. Sadly, it doesn't look like will conceed tonight, despite the fact that so far there is no Oregon or Florida with a few thousand vote difference.

This could set a horrible precedent.

KYRedsFan · 11-03-2004, 02:10 AM

Great thread. Looks like 4 more years. Interesting most will be Kerry's response. Ohio seems to be a done deal.
