The election, exit polls, updates and returns

I'm watching fox news right now and all I got to say is that Carl Rove looks like a fat benjamin franklin with no neck.

ABC News has Obama winning Wisconsin when clearly Romney has 51% of the votes with 21% reported.
They just gave Obama the state.
Wisconsin
OBAMA
48%
ROMNEY
51%
Electoral Votes 10
Exp. Vote Reported 21%

Nate Silver's numbers are holding up, why isn't he running for office somewhere? lol

Two judges in Hamilton County, Ohio, were removed for allowing people to vote illegally, that were not even registered. One Democrat, one Republican. Both are replaced now, but no one knows how many illegal votes were cast. NOT a good thing!

Just in MItt Romney is currently listening to this song

Obama about to take Nevada. If he wins Florida it's over. That ones gonna be close all the way and Ohio is close as hell with O slightly ahead.

I'm hearing that Obama's a little up in FLA and the two most Obama friendly counties in the state (Broward and Miami-Dade) are still voting with lines stretched out at most precincts. Some estimates are that upwards of 70% will tilt Obama, so that seems to suggest that hes got FLA.

Why isn't FOX News bringing Dick Morris the great know it all.

Wasn't Nevada número uno in unemployment and foreclosure?

If Obama wins Ohio and Nevada, he doesn't need Florida.

But, I think Obama might win all three.

Has to do with exit pole data. I live in WI and I'm not sure NBC's early call is going to hold up. I posted earlier in this thread that its going to come down to absentee ballots. Almost 600,000 absentee ballots were sent out.

The big cities haven't reported yet.

I think Fox News jumped the gun on the call, but the Exit Poll is pretty convincing.

CNN hasn't called Wisconsin yet.

Yes, Silver is having a good night.

He did a hell of a job this election.

According to current projections/scanrios:

If Obama wins Colorado and Ohio - he wins
If Obama wins Florida (alone) he wins


It looks like all three are leaning towards Obama. I personally think this one is a wrap.

Obama will win

NBC is reporting that the Romney campaign is in radio silence, and has been for more than an hour. I think they know that it's lost.

No link so far, just heard them mention it on Fox. Seriously messed up, though! I would love to know who they are, and more about them, myself. More, how many did they allow to vote?? If it's close, there is going to be screaming, no matter who takes that state, with this sort of thing happening!

It hurts to say this, but I may have to give this to Obama.

I picked a perfect time to open this!

And I was coming in to tell the opposition "Thank you for playing such a level and courteous game with me". This political season has been a very pleasant experience for me, especially the debates. You folks have all earned my earnest and heartfelt respect.

You put up a good fight.
