I'm showing 98% reporting for NM
Bush by 26k votes

It's all about OHIO...nothing else matters now.

Whoever gets OHIO, gets the whole thing...

And it looks like the Terrorist-in-Thief has done it again.

America deserves the next 4 years.

OH margin - 99% reporting
144k
CNN

Just waiting on Clark county in NV. With 99% reporting from there, Bush is up by over 20k votes.

Kerry leades by a margin of just under 16k.

Kerry 50
Bush 49
Nader 1

Bush leading in 3 of the 4 unclaimed states.
Combining the voting data from CNN and FNC's declared states, Bush should pick up NM, NV, and IA with WI going to Kerry. Should OH results not change this would give Bush the victory.

FNC reporting that with the number of absentee ballots counted in NM, state officials are ready to give the state to Bush. This may be happening on local TV right now.

Not on local NM TV now, just checked, but REP. Sen/ Dominici is ready to call it for Bush.

Didn't I do that about four hours ago?

CBS gives Nevada to Bush, pushing him over the 270 mark.

President Bush waiting for either NV or NM to go over 270 to speak.

Official results soon for Afghan election. Hamid Karzai expected to be named winner.

Just thought I would add that to this thread as their election there is some what entwined with ours.

either way... it's going to be an interesting 4 years, eh?

funny you mention hamid's victory. some progressive sites have information pointing to a possibly rigged election in favor of the incumbent. it's a small world after all... it's a small world after all...what the? why am i singing disney crap?

OH margin - 99% reporting
147k
3:51EST
CNN

Edit: FNC estimating 150k provisional ballots in OH still to be verified/counted. Based on the current numbers, just about every provisional ballot will need to be a Kerry vote for him to take the state.

ABC reporting 100% counted in NV and going to Bush.
274 for Bush. This figure doesn't include NM or IA, WI.

EDIT: Drunk typing no bueno.

Since I have to get up for work in 4 hours, I am going to call it a night.

From my perspective, President Bush has claimed enough states to claim a victory. To me, at this time, it is apparent that the Kerry Camp is going to contest the OH results. I can't see them having much of a leg to stand on. They may complain about the on again off again poll monitors, but we will have to see.

Should things stand as they are, and those not completely decided trend the way they are, I believe that the '04 election will go to Bush in both the popular vote as well as the Electoral College.

Good night all.

The way I see it, the path to victory for the Kerry peeps is if they contest, publicly and loudly, the validity of the voting machines used to process votes as they are tabulated. Whether or not they have the gall to litigate this on a mainstream level is questionable, but if Kerry wants to win, he's going to have to step on a few toes that he has previously been careful not to squash
