Alabama for McCain according to BBC, 103-49. You know what would be fun? McCain getting more people vote but losing because of electors :-) -- |

Hagan beats out Dole in North Carolina for Senator. Democrats should have majority in Senate. More projections in five minutes. |

You see, you should post not only who wins, but also who was supposed to win according to state background and who according to the latest polls. -- |

There have been no upsets yet. Everything is going according to the polls. Democrats pick up two more seats in the Senate. 55 total so far, creeping up to the important 60. |

Anyone looking at an interactive map, check Michigan. If votes continue as they are, exit polls will be worthless. I wonder how many polls actually finished their voting here actually? Considering some people waited hours to get in the door, who knows how long some lines were at closing (8PM) --- |

Wow. Great. Not only is Obama president, the senate and congress are overwhelmingly Democratic. Hooray for the USSA. Too bad the damn system isn't...71% electoral from 50% popular? Um what? Why does the electoral college even need to exist anymore? Are most of you Obama supporters? A lot of the posts were "whoo Obama."

Nope, I didn't vote for any Democrats. But I do like to see the country vote against the party that led us into mess after mess for the last eight years! CNN just called Ohio for Obama. Obama 194, McCain 69. Let the landslide begin. |

I'm pretty much impartial on presidents (partially because I can't vote) but I'd prefer McCain. Well...actually Biden, but whatever. My main problem is how everything is democratic, and as I generally lean to Republican ideas (while not actually supporting either party, I feel like that's a stupid way to vote), I won't be happy about a bunch of democrat laws etc being unchallenged.

200/70 for BBC. And I think Democrats have been having majority for some years already in the Congress, it is that now Republicans won't be able to veto their laws. Uh... 200/124 now. It continues! -- |

<generalization time> A Democractic government will spend more effort helping those that are too stupid to help themselves by penalizing those that have already helped themselves. Hopefully the educational process in this country can be improved to the point where we won't need much governance assistance. |

kazzmir, wrapping stupid statements in fancy <tags> is cowardly! Don't use tags and take the flame like a man. Why isn't CNN calling Texas, its pretty sure that McCain will win there. In capitalist America bank robs you. |

Quote: Are most of you Obama supporters? A lot of the posts were "whoo Obama."
AFP said: Obama is the preferred candidate of 42 percent of the people in the world, while only 12 percent would vote for McCain if they had the chance, according to a BBC survey of 2,500 people in 22 countries. In Europe, Obama is particularly popular: more than 80 percent of Germans, French and Dutch have a favorable view of him, according to a poll sponsored by the German Marshall Fund. By comparison, McCain's top score in Europe was in Portugal, where 35 percent liked him.

Aha, no Republican candidate has been able to become president without Ohio, and Ohio has chosen the president in every election since 1964. Now I understand! -- |
