Election Day open thread – Did you vote today?

By: Brent


I just drove through campus on the way to work. There were about 100 students in line outside the Jesse Owens building waiting to get inside to wait in line some more. It was 7:25 in the morning.

I was NEVER up before 10 when I was in college. Wow.

    Walker wrote I never know who to trust during these really early results, but CNN is showing Ohio as 65% Obama 34% McCain.

    Man I called that wrong in the other thread….

    Of course, that’s with 0% of the precincts reporting. ;)

    HDNet seems to be the most conservative with its projections, so we’re watching that here, even if it means seeing Dan Rather in HD.

  • Looks like the bonds are passing according to this:

  • Why call PA? When I last looked they really did have 0% in.

    I don’t know how they do that, but even Fox has called it.

    As for Ohio, CNN is showing that Obama has picked up some formerly Bush counties like Coshocton, Fulton & Seneca + Hillary primary areas like Mahoning & Eire.

  • Pretty much 60-30 now in PA. When I first looked it was 0-0 with the check by Obama.

  • First Franklin County numbers up.

    Obama has about 61% right now.

  • Popular vote shows McCain ahead, electoral count shows Obama. 2000 again?

    Meh. I think you’re really jumping the gun.

    No but Shep Smith seems to be handling it pretty much in stride.

  • ABC shows 50-48 McCain in Michigan, yet projects Obama?

  • Just passing along the message, my sister in law in NYC wanted me to thank everyone in Ohio who voted for Obama.

    I went for Barr, I’m sure that’s close enough. At least it wasn’t McCain. :D
