How big is Montgomery county? Looking at county by county results -- the only way Bush loses Iowa is if Montgomery County has a good bit of residents and is 60-70% Kerry.

There are about 40-42k votes that could still be out there in Iowa. Bush leads by 12k. It is possible that Kerry could win, but some of the counties that aren't fully reporting were going Bush or heavily tied.

A tremendous number of absentee ballots were cast and on the local news it was leaked that they gave Kerry a lead measured in tens of thousands going into tonight. I hav eno idea how the person who leaked it arrived at that conclusion, but that's what they said.

I've been listening to the radio, watching every tv channel and checking out all the different sites, and I have to say... if you've missed http://www.yahoo.com you need to go there now.

they've had the best coverage the whole evening.

yahoo has the most indepth coverage i've ever seen, and an awesome front page graphic.

Right, but they would have been counted already. They are counted when the regular ballots are counted minus the military ballots. Are you saying absentee, or does Iowa have provisonal as well? I don't know of a state that doesn't count absentee with their regular boxes...

only down by 14000 in WI.. too bad 96% is already reporting.. if Bush could have just won Wisconsin tonight it would have ended everything, regardless of the outcome of Ohio...

Looking at the county by county I think Bush loses WI.

yeah i agree.. he doesnt have much chance left.. i just wish he woulda won it and then the election would definitely be over tonight, rather than in the hands of lawyers and judges over there in Ohio...
