Default GameTavern's Election '04 Coverage

Aight this is it, the final round-up. Will John Kerry be elected 44th President of the United States, or will George Bush win 4 more years? Check here all day Tuesday for the latest news from the campaign front. My final prognostications will be updated tomorrow morning.

An exciting time to be a political nerd sitting in front of his computer watching states electorates get handed out.

I'm really hoping Bush wins. I think this will be the first time in my life I actually pay attention to the election.

I think I shall stay up all night to get a jump on voting right when the polls open...

Although voting could be the new star wars and there will be lines around the block starting at 4AM...

I just got back from voting! Using those confounded touchy-screeny electrical machines...

Surprisingly minty! Cool tingly sensation! Seriously minty...

Go me!

I say Kerry wins by 1/3 of an electoral vote...

Encouraging columnist: http://www.newsday.com/news/columnis...4887692.column

Quote:
One day last May, I assigned the election to John Kerry. I said it early, and often. As I looked more, I saw that it shouldn't even be close. I said that in this space more than once. Now I am so sure that I am not even going to bother to watch the results tonight. I am going to bed early, for I must rise in the darkness and pursue immediately an exciting, overdue project.

Besides, if I was up, so many people, upon seeing every word I said of this election coming true on television in front of them, would be kissing my hands and embarrassing me with outlandish praise. So I go to bed with total confidence. I will get up and stroll to other meadows. I invented this column form. I now leave, but will return here for cameo appearances. And I leave today as the only one in America who from the start was sure John Kerry would win by a wide margin. Let me tell you why.

VERY Early numbers have Kerry opening up leads in FL, OH, and PA. Bush leads in CO, and the two are tied in IA.

AZ CO LA PA OH FL MI NM MN WI IA NH
Kerry 45 48 42 60 52 51 51 50 58 52 49 57
Bush 55 51 57 40 48 48 47 48 40 43 49 41
