:strokechin:

CNN exit poll has Virginia tied at 49%.

The polls have clearly not got the turnout wrong. Obama will win.

James Carville is an alright sort. Awful scary looking fucker though.

The weird thing is that virtually every county in every state has its own unique polling criteria and formats, so voting in one county can be a totally different experience to voting in another county. I found this most offputting when voting for Bush 87 times in Florida in 2000.

A totally different experience? Are there some places where you dip your knob in a bucket of paint of what?

Same result in North Carolina. Obama 51-48 in Ohio. If these are any way accurate, it’s all over.

Yes, Arkansas.

Romney has won Kentucky for example, where apparently hoof marks count as votes.

49% each in North Carolina on CNN’s exit poll. 51-48 Obama in Ohio. Looks like the President will take both the popular vote and the electoral college.

Fox News live stream. This will be the place to be tonight.

I guess the Republicans will have to try and make out that the actual election poll oversampled African-Americans.

A lot of votes have been counted in Florida because a lot of the polls closed there at 12.00. Seeming from the analysis on CNN that the outcomes so far seem similar enough to 2008, so again looking good for Obama. Polls in the rest of the State close at 1.00 (there are two time zones in Florida), so presumably we’ll have an exit poll then.

CNN Exit Polls:
FL 50-49 Obama
NH 50-48 Obama
PA 52-47 Obama

Bill O’Reilly, Brit Hume, Megyn Kelly and Bret Baier in the Fox News studio still at the denial stage. But the ashen faces all round tell the story.

I am now projecting that Fox News will have moved to the anger phase when they return from these ads.

Ah fuck it, I’m going to put on Fox for 15 mins before I go to bed :licklips:

The ashen faces and glow in the dark teeth.

Bad news for the Republicans in Connecticut as WWE candidate Linda McMahon is defeated.

I can’t find the Irish politics thread, so can someone tell me how I have to vote to fuck over the church in the child amendment thing…

The Church’s adopted spokesman John Waters is adopting an angry ‘No’ stance, so vote yes.
