US Election Results

Post by Sionnach Glic »

Thought it best to set up a specific thread for this. Call out the results as they come in.

Spacing got all screwed up in my post above, just read left to right. The columns are supposed to line up. Or just check the link occaisionally.

Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

In one of the least surprising results since the invention of the vote, New York (31 EV) brings its massive bounty of Electoral votes to Obama... with these and other results CNN puts it at:

Obama 174 McCain 49

What happened?
Dole ran robo calls calling the democrate (who's name I forget right now) a godless woman who sypathises with athests. Blatant slander considering the dem was a Sunday school teacher atone stage from what I hear.
