On the positive side even Ben couldn't imagine the left coast not being leftist.

An interesting note: Obama is up a few hundred votes in Nebraska's 2nc Congressional District. If that holds, he'll snatch 1 electoral vote from NE, since they aren't a winner-take-all state.

He apparently got more deluded as time went by because just tonight he predicted a McCain win in California. WTF BEN? All I can say is WTF?

Umm, can you find a quote where I actually said McCain would win CA?

Don't you think I would have included that on my map.

IN flipping was unexpected.

The Smith/Merkley race in Oregon won't be decided tonight. While Merkley is slightly ahead there are some repug areas yet to be counted.

Stop playing dumb. Yu said it was mathematically possible for McCain to win after he lost Penn and OH. The only way that is true is if he wins CA. Either you are stupid or a liar.

Quite possible.

If he loses only OH, IA and NM, all he needs is MI and MN or WI to make that up, which is what I actually said.

The Georgia calls were premature, it seems. Apparently a ton of the early votes have not been counted yet, and those will skew things back towards the Democrats. Chambliss may still be forced into a runoff.

Franken is down 1100 votes with 5 percent still to count in MN.

[Impaler[WrG]]

The Franken/Coleman race is a complete nail-biter, leads are fluctuating from few hundred to few thousand, momentum moving back and forth seemingly at random.

No.

[EPW]

Its hard to see Franken losing at this point.

[Boris Godunov]

And the NE SoS office says Obama has definitely won that 1 electoral vote from the 2nd Congressional District.

Whoa, don't think anyone here predicted that...

[KrazyHorse]

Nope. I thought it was a remote possibility (5-10%)

[KrazyHorse]

And Franken takes the lead as about half the remaining St Louis County results come in. Still waiting on 9% of Hennepin County.

Coleman should pick up a net of a couple thousand from the other parts of the state waiting to be counted.
