McCain leading Florida, Indiana, Virginia

LOL Florida with 1% of the vote tallied, and Indiana and Virginia with less than 10%.

Again no precincts in Gary or Indianapolis reporting....

Well duh :) If it was the opposite we'd have about 40 more posts in this thread, so someone has to chime in for McCain.

Even on boxes in VA where Warner is winning big Obama is getting beat. Very bad news for Obama.

Warner is up like 30 points in pre-election polls so that was bound to happen.

Absolutely, and it is still way too early to assume anything.

There was no one at the polls in SE Houston TX. Walked right in & voted at 6:00PM.

Not sure what that means for the Repubs.

FL is no longer a McCain lead. Recall in 04 and 00 that the cities like Miami-Dade take longer to process so those trickle in later.

It looks like based on In, the independents are leaning to McCain. He's pulling away slightly, but with only 15% in, it's hard to tell. If this holds, McCain is getting stronger votes than he polled. I still don't think he'll win, but it would be nice if he broke 200EVs at least.

Check the Pasco County results. Is this a glitch? 52,000 Obama votes vs. 6 McCain votes

EDIT: They fixed it and Obama's still leading by a pretty big margin.

CNN has the correct results for Pasco.

No results from Lake in IN yet.

Seems like returns are slower than past years. Might be because or turnout.

I think Indiana is the most interesting state so far. Indianapolis returns are starting to come in now.

Not enough info in VA yet.
