1 more hour before the first polls close.
The Green Party qualified for federal matching funds this year. Hasn't helped much, has it?
Damn two seconds too late.
VA reporting higher turnout than 2008.
Damn two seconds too late.
In the words of South Park "Simpsons already did it!!"
In states where parts of said states are in the central time zone, so polls will remain open for another hour there, and no results from the state will be reported until the whole state is done.
And since those states are Indiana and Kentucky, it's not really any news that'll be coming out of those states.
obama listed as republican on some ballots in VA.
I've suddenly got a bad feeling.
I mean, a different kind of bad feeling from usual. Though it could be those anchovies. Will keep you all posted.

no videos of half digested anchovies please
That should only be a problem for those who only look at which party a person is and not the name. It might actually get Obama more votes, from dumb Repubs,
According to some reports Bush voted for Obama
He really is an imbecile though this time he made the correct choice.

That is a joke.
feck sake. Hurry up, time.
I'm a bit nervous. If Romney wins it shows that deception, lies and misinformation won an election. Oh, and hatred.
Not sure, I wasn't overly aware of Jill Stein. In all fairness it probably came more from this thread than anywhere else. Then I did see a bit of the 3rd party debates.
In the end you may be right.
Connecticut Republican Senate candidate Linda McMahon tries a novel approach to salvaging her flagging campaign's hopes.

Oh, come on now. And really you could say that about every election if you wanted too.
I just got this feeling too.

This certainly seems far more mudslinging and misinformation than I ever recall during an election. Both sides do it but Romney has been shown repeatedly for flip-flopping, having no plan, and blatant lies. So go on and bat your eyes sweetheart, the truth sometimes stings.
Me too. It's a stupid feeling right? RIGHT?!
This looks like quite a good site to keep track of results on when they start coming in - http://elections2012.npr.org/bigboard/president.html
Anyone get any other good stuff they've found? Live texts and whatnot?

Not that exit polls mean much, but those Virginia exit polls just look a little bit worrying.
Sack Obama Sell Biden
Turns out I needed a shit.
On a serious note I just have a feeling Obama will be shafted tonight, maybe I'm just a cynical fecker.
That announcer on FSC is really getting on my tits now "Fawwwwwwwwwxxx Sawkeeeeeeerr...Tarrrtnaaarm"
Grrr.
Grrr.
I'm getting confused. When do first solid results (not exit polls) start coming through? Thinking of a nap.
Anyone got a good place to follow the whole thing? Do any of the big networks have streams? If not, does anyone know of where to find ... other... streams?
You've got a few hours...get your head down.
CNN probably. I watch them at work sometimes.
We're a good five or six hours minimum from anything substantive.
I'm watching CNN as well.
1. Exit polls are rubbish
2. The Republican bits of Virginia report earlier
3. He doesn't need Virginia
*Panics*Looks at 538*Panics*
