and so it begins...

.

So what about the other parties besides Nader,Bush, or Kerry. Do they even create a dent in the election process?

Well Nader is already up there for popular vote.

If a third party leads in a senate race, house race, or *gasp* in the Electoral College, I'm sure ATSNN staff will change the page.

Fell free to report results for any candidate as they come in by posting on this thread. I'm sure others will do the same.

I'll be keeping an eye on coverage from CBC Newsworld and BBC World to watch the results as the come in.

.

This should be interesting. I'll be glued to the TV and ATS today to see how it all unfolds.

CBC News is reporting heavy turnout.



BBC News is also reporting long queues.



Long line-ups could discourage some voters or could be caused by problems.

We'll have to wait and see if it's a record.

Edit: added BBC story

This somewhat confuses me, Badnarik got more votes then Nader in ATS votes 2004 and had a interview on this forum, yet he is not even up there.

But good job nevertheless, I can't wait for the results to come in.

I predct the "Rant" section of BTS is going to blow up around 10:30 or 11:00 tonight

yea, provided half of it isn't on ATS

Nerdling checking in.

I'll be monitoring CNN, BBC & SkyNews and I'll be providing additional world commentary.

Tonight my democratic hat comes off, we're going to try to bring you the most accurate coverage we can right until the end.

Whenever the end may be.

Can We Please Keep this thread to Comments on Results.

I will be monitoring FOX, MSNBC, and Numerous Net sites as well as developing stories in the Philadelphia Area on Voter Fraud.

I guess I will stick with the comedy channel for the results tonight, at least I will get to laught about it.

I will have one TV on Fox, and the other on the local news. Hopefully the local outlets here will get the NM results faster then the 24/7s. We're classified as battleground, so our piddley 6 votes in the EC are in play.

Do keep us informed.

CBC News reporting wins for Bush in Kentucky, Indiana and Georgia and a win for Kerry in Vermont.

Early lead to Bush (34) over Kerry (3)

.

Virgina is too close to call. However, Zell Millers Georgia seat has gone to the GOP

As I posted in another thread per info I got from my mom/dad who live in Hampton, VA (Hampton Roads) there has been polling problems there. Polling station where my mom went had a machine break down. So results won't be known from that area until midnight which will have a big effect on the VA announcement since Hpt Roads has about 1.5mil people in the region. So in the end Bush will probably get VA as that state always goes to the GOP.

CNN now reporting Indiana to the Dems????????

What the hell? I've got CNN on and they're saying Bush.

ABC News now reporting Ohio and North Carolina too close to call.
