Election Night, Part II

The results are pouring in for several states, and Obama is maintaining a slight lead over Romney with a 64-40 split of the votes. Of course, that's CNN's 'projection', so it could be anything from 0-104 for either candidate.

My personal electoral projections (which, unlike most other projections I make, I use math in) call the east coast race with Obama on top, but losing Virginia. Ohio and Florida will most likely go to Obama, with Romney taking all the stupid southern states. Factoring in that data, and the assumption that Obama wins California and Romney wins Texas, the race is now at 127 for Romney, 207 for Obama. That also factors in the assumptions that Obama takes New York and Illinois, where the race isn't even CLOSE.


This is Karl Rove's electoral map prediction, so it is almost undoubtedly wrong. But as polls continue to close, this race seems tighter than it ever should have been. The real irony is that, even with this map, Romney doesn't come out on top even after winning both Virginias, Florida, Nevada, Colorado, and leaving Ohio a toss-up.

But the real news as of right now is that no one knows what the F**K is going on. Florida has a slight Romney lead with only 54% of the vote counted. The amazing thing about CNN is that they actually call states with about 4% of the precincts reporting. It's amazing. I mean, sure, I just made a ton of calls for Obama and Romney, but does anyone REALLY think that Obama might lose California?

I love living here. Bye! At least... for about an hour.
