ES's Offical 11/6/2012 Election Results Thread (DISCUSS THE RESULTS HERE)

This victory speech by Bill Nelson is painful and maudlin.

Which is why we continue to reelect him.

As it goes for VA, if my memory is correct, we didn't know that Obama won VA till the next day........we knew Obama won prior to even winning VA.

He won by like 6-8 points so I dont think that was the case.

Has Wake county reported yet?

Not the big numbers yet.

Guilford (Greensboro) hasn't either if I'm not mistaken.

incorrect. CNN called VA for Obama, and then immediately followed by calling the election for him as well.

Romney doing better than I expected here and in NC, Florida is close too. Obama's got a pretty good lead (few precincts) in Ohio but this could be closer than I expected it to be, at least the way things look. Although NBC still sounds pretty confident that the election is trending Obama's way.

It was definitely later in the evening at least. The final numbers from Northern VA didn't come in until much later and swung the numbers quite a bit.

as a big obama supporter, i had it saved on my DVR for a year. CNN called VA for Obama, and then immediately went into their big "OBAMA WINS" celebration.

Right, which means it was 11 pm or later before the final projection was made.

I do remember the numbers swinging heavily towards Obama as it got later in the evening.

It was right at 11 when CA polls closed. Remember it vividly.

[Hersh]

Based on the "Too early to call" results which means they have a sense of who's going to win the state, doesn't this really come down to Ohio, Iowa and Nevada now? That's it. Wisconsin is leaning heavy Obama, New Mexico is Obama. The others are the fire wall.

I just found it Dan Rather is hosting election coverage on Axs TV (HDNET). The Ratherisms are coming from left and right!
