    Anyone find it interesting that Michigan is called for Kerry with less of a margin than Bush leads Ohio? Not that I think Bush will win Michigan, but I seriously think that Bush has Ohio locked up

    i don't get how the networks to their projections

    CNN projects Kerry the winner in Michigan with a 90,000 vote lead with 76% reporting

    yet

    CNN says Bush's lead in Ohio is 125,000 votes with 97% reporting and its "too close to call"

    :confused:

    Even the man you wanted to elect president served his time in war, being a coward is not part of being an American, so I'll see you in France.

    Red Chocolate - You are an embarassment to Democrats everywhere.

    So is this how all elections will go from now on? Will we litigate all elections for a month? ugh.

    Even if there are 120k+ provisional votes still out there they would all have to be for Kerry for him to win Ohio.

    Bush won.. please stop this maddness.

    The Secretary of State of Ohio said himself at the most there are 175k provisional ballots and at the most 90% will be valid.

    There is no mathematical way Kerry can win Ohio.

    You've heard everywhere from right to flat out wrong, and they'd have to be 110% in favor of Kerry.

    It's done.

    Ohio and New Mexico are clearly Bush victories and will give him 274.

    John Kerry, you have done enough already to drag our country through the mud with your actions to date. Please stop this madness and the legal morass that will surely follow and do the right thing.

    This election is over. As soon as New Mexico is called for Bush, he can come out and declare victory. With a 100,000 lead in Ohio, and a 3 million vote lead in the popular vote; Kerry is going to have a hard time making any kind of argument.

    Yes, but the DNC is not helping by constantly kicking up dirt to cloud the real view.

    Maybe If you grasp for a few more straws you'll be able to blow Kerry into office from where you are sitting.

    Along with 4 million more to the the majority, for Bush, of the popular vote, the will of the people has been demonstrated.

    And the electoral votes "will" show it also.

    Bush will carry Nevada, New Mexico, Iowa and Ohio.

    Just like your PC... a big fat 286.
