Thumbs down Won't know who President is Nov. 2

Absentee ballots may turn this election into a major headache. Key battleground states such as Ohio and Florida have extended the deadline by which overseas ballots must be received past Nov 2. They want to make sure as many votes are counted as is possible. So far the process has been a complete nightmare as Pentagon computer systems are unable to handle the influx of registrations. Complicated rules and voting regulations have confused many who live overseas. Initially the Pentagon system was only made available to the military which is causing states to reject them. Officers are strongly Republican but the new recruits are more evenly divided between candidates. The millions of civilians living overseas favor Kerry by 58%.

I can already see legal challenges by both sides as to the standards to use in which votes to accept and which to reject. I don't know if it will be possible to declare a winner on Nov 2nd with so many potential votes yet to be counted.
