I don't believe it's going to be a landslide. I think it will be closer than any of us may think right now. Honestly? I don't believe that Obama will pass the 300-mark in terms of electoral college votes. But we'll see.

Judging from CNN's poll closing time map, I think it will be about 11pm CT when a winner is called.

I agree. My earlier post:

Perhaps I can swap Virginia and Washington state?

I'll never recognize DC!

Nah I shouldve had that as going Dem as well

I believe you should for I cannot see WA as a red state. I used to live there and it bleeds blue.

It appears that I won't be starting any new threads.

Only 1 wrong so far, and that was OH. NC and IN could still go to Barrack too.

Mine, is actually pretty close. I look like I missed NC, which I think I meant to put in Obama's category, but I'll have to check my original map here.

Wow, if Missouri was swapped with Indiana (which I still can't believe Obama won) that would pretty much be my map. Nice.

 

[souvlaki]

Wait... has Indiana been called yet? I just woke up and checked Politico and I guess I got mislead because CNN has it too close to call.

 

[Marx]

So there are still 37 electoral votes to be decided...Missouri, Indiana, and North Carolina.

Indiana has not been called yet. Local news has the difference between President-elect Obama and Senator McCain at 20,000...in favor of Obama.

During my intense political scientific research John Sidney McCain III the winner of the 2008 presidential election.

I was kind of hoping Obama would lose Missouri, just so it would put an end to all that "bellweather state" bull**** we have to hear every 4 years.

I never dreamed that he'd own McCain that badly in the electoral college, or that the popular vote would be as dominant as it was for that matter. I really thought we were looking at a 2000/2004 situation. But the will of the people seems pretty clear.

In looking at my own precinct, I noticed that hundreds of people must have voted Obama at the top and Republicans the rest of the way down because he's the only Democrat to win.
