LOL. They projected Caliland for Kerry now even though everyone knew it all along. I guess the numbers just looked too skewed for CNN's liberal eyes.

go Ohio!!, 50% reported and Bush is doing ok

another hour or two and Ohio should be clear


if OH goes for Pres. Bush, this will be over

the only way FL is going Kerry is by lawsuit

California will make this close as hell..NBC has projected Cali and Wash.

Everyone knew that California was going to Kerry. It's meaningless. It's the swing states that matter.

I dunno...there are over 1.6 million absentee ballots to be counted in FL. It will be interesting to see how FL pans out tomorrow.

The polls aren't even closed in CA. I feel sorry for those voting in CA right now. I mean what's the point?? 0% precincts reporting and a vote for Bush wouldn't change a thing!

From Drudge:
GOP predicts Ohio, Bush win
Tue Nov 02 2004 23:02:04 ET

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2 (UPI) -- White House sources are telling UPI that they believe George W. Bush will win Ohio and be re-elected president of the United States.

At 10:30 p.m., Bush was told by a senior adviser that Ohio would land in the GOP column and put him over the top with at least 274 electoral votes, the sources said.

"We're very upbeat," Bush said as he watched returns in the Yellow Room at the White House with family members -- including his father, former President George H.W. Bush. "I believe I will win."

Bush's comments shortly before 10 p.m. EST reflected rising Republican hopes that Bush will win Florida and remain in contention in Ohio. Winning both those states would almost certainly return him to office.

The comments were also timed to reach voters in states where the polls had not yet closed including Hawaii, Nevada and Oregon. CNN had Bush leading with 193 electoral votes to Sen. John Kerry's 112.

CNN has an article that says that more than half of the absentees are likely to go to Bush, so if Bush is ahead by a couple hundred thousand before those are counted, i don't think Kerry has a chance
