Well for an unbiased view of the election I'm following Donald Trump, apparently Obama's supporters are threatening people with guns, China is behind global-warming myths, and machines are fixing it for Obama to win instead of Romney. Oh and Katrina was much betterly handled than Sandy, god bless people born in America and not Kenya.



Not sure why that shirt is on sale though

Communist, you're all marxist propagandist, probably members of the filthy liberal press, oh and your just thick demo zombies for not believing every piece of skewed GOP propaganda, you'd vote for Hitler if he was black and muslim and born in Kenya, which admittedly seems unlikely, but anyway Romney/Ryan all the way.

In PA. Just voted. I was the only one in the polling place an hour before they close...

Never seen it like that. Would be interested to see what turnout is like this year. Definitely down form 2008 I think but not sure compared to 2004.

Am I the only one a bit unimpressed with Nate Silver's unwillingness to publish his methods?

Oh and this, Alex Pareene, well-established and hyper-opinionated leftie, posts satirical take on why he's voting Romney and about 1/10 of the commenters get it. Hilarious.

Why I voted for Mitt Romney - Salon.com

CNN has Obama up 54-45 in Ohio. Only 1% of the vote counted so plenty can change, but the Democrats should be pretty happy with that so far.

EDIT:

Electoral Vote Running Count:
CNN 64-40 Obama.
FOX 78-71 Obama.
