Both CNN and Fox have called the election for Obama also. Interestingly enough, Romney still has a small edge in the popular vote.

I think the state calls are based on exit polls.
Or if not exit polls, then the results of special precincts that are indicative of the way the state usually goes. The popular vote comes later.
I wouldn't worry about that. For example, http://electionresul...?type=PRE&map=CTY has Virginia's results. Romney was leading the whole night until Northern Virginia started reporting. Now Obama has a 53,000 vote lead and it's continuing to grow. But we won't have the quasi-final numbers until tomorrow. Or later. :-/ Still, Rove is making baseless claims. A good night that could have been better if we retook the House too, but a good night. Cheers, Scott. |
