    Exactly... the early results are often a matter of which counties reported first.

    In addition to Northern Virginia, the population center of Indianpolis (Marion County), IN, has only reported a small portion of the votes, too. It's not like the earliest counted votes are porportional geographically.

    Not sure if that's sarcasm, but if it's not, I'd really love some elaboration. Every indication in the past hour has Obama landslide written all over it.

    why am i thinking obama is going to win even bigger than most people thought in the electoral count? i haven't even been paying attention really to which battlegrounds are supposed to go to who, but ti just seems like he's going to surge to victory.
