GO MITT!!
Dinners over. How are we doing?
This just came over from Ali:
Ali A. Akbar ?@ali
CNN’s exit polls have #Ohio, 1 pt less Dem and 1 pt more Republican. This math ain’t looking good for Obama.
Penn shaping up to be tight. Not sure that means anything. We’ll know FL and OH soon enough.
It is just a plain ahame that anything is too close…Where has America, the beautiful gone? Romney should be spanking O right now. I pray he will prevail in the end.
I’m also hearing Ace just called both Virginia and North Carolina for Team Romney. Going over to check to see if their map is updated.
And Florida news is getting brighter. Looked a little shaky there for a few minutes.
Go Romney!
Pray for the best.
Big dump of NE and Mid-Atlantic called for O. All expected.
A lot of ticket splitters in NC voting McCrory (R) for gov. but Obama for Prez.
Ali A. Akbar ?@ali
Florida, Obama beat McCain by 11pts in early voters. It looks like Obama 1-2pts in early voters. 28% of the population. Romney will win
That is NOT a big enough lead in KY and what is going on in FL? Also, looks like OH ev was greatly in favor of Obama.
Oh Eric – your DE and IL were just called for Obama. Nice.
@willrahn
Prince William county in VA keeping polls open until midnight http://bit.ly/TtBAb4
The media is trying to influence and discourage Panhandle voters…. again. It’s disgusting.
NJ and CT are lightening calls for obama
5 what does that mean?
Romney starting to quickly close gap in FL with election day votes.
PA Exit poll looks like an Obama win, but obviously that can change.
Upset alert
KY-06 57% reporting
Barr (R) 51.6%
Chandler (D) 45.5%
Fayette County 33% reported
Romney ahead by 3.4
2008 Obama won by 5
Eric – whenever you type anything, I wonder about your accuracy. Saying DE was in play pretty much made anything you type now questionable.
PA not too close to call…it is too early to call.
Exit polls:
Florida 50-49 Obama
Missouri 53-44 Romney
New Hampshire 50-48 Obama
New Jersey 53-45 Obama
Pennsylvania 52-47 Obama
MD- please remind me to go dark in 2016 during exit poll hours
Sandy prominent in the exit polling.
Chris Christie
Dead to me.
Forever.
Now we have Cuyahoga early vote: Obama +104K. OH will be close.
Ali A. Akbar ?@ali
The media is trying to influence and discourage Panhandle voters…. again. It’s disgusting.
Obama by about 3% in Ohio say exit polls
EV in Fla. was very pro-Obama.
and they say +7 dems in OH. not a chance
va 59% romney per cbs
These exit polls being published are stupid.
CNN exit of Florida is 50-49 Obama. Geesh. Wasn’t expecting that.
Ali A. Akbar ?@ali
Thinking Romney gets 52-53% of Florida when it’s done (even here in an half hour or so). Could even go up.
+100k for Obama in Ohio I think that is early vote in. Doesn’t seem good enough for Obama. Thoughts?
GPO – best hours of my day. I wasn’t here at all. I am being honest. FL looks very shaky.
Ok, O’Reilly is depressing right now.
Ali A. Akbar ?@ali
#Ohio will be a D+ state. Below D+8 but above D+3. At least, looking like that. Romney wins in many of those situations.
O’Reilly basically stated that Christie handed Obama the election.
Nobody changed their vote based on the Obama and Christie love fest. Get real.
MD florida looks good. Early voting adv way down. We will win by 5
I worked in the polls in Philadelphia for 8 elections. They have not even opened the machines 10 minutes after they close.
Some of these exits are just hard to phathom.
Any remember this – WI Recall Election – CNN exit polls say its tied:
http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/06/06/us-usa-wisconsin-recall-exitpolls-idUSBRE85502120120606
What happened here again?
I think VA and FL will go Romney
any words barone , rove last hour or so
Rupert, you are so wrong there is abundant evidence polling etc on the impact. It sad, but it mostly low information women.
Someone give O’Reilly the hook and get him off my tv screen.
EML – what about the rest of the EV in OH?
O’Reilly has this country nailed – “people want things. Who will give them things”.
yep
It looks bad for Mourdock. Imbecile.
I can’t believe there are morons here when told about numerous exit polling debacle, are still pining for exit poll results.
Remember when people were mad at O’Reilly for pitching softballs to Obama in the interviews?
Jonathan S. Tobin ?@TobinCommentary
NBC says Obama won FLA early vote by only 50K. Not much of an advantage. Good news for Romney. #Elections2012
Nelson already projected as the winner.
Folks – I don’t think we are getting the Senate tonight.
Chris Christie framed the issue for Obama.
Romney ahead in fla now
MD….love you brother, but you seem to fixate on any possible negative outcome you either a) see or b) pre-suppose.
Md, you are right. Christie is dead to me as we’ll.
Up 2 in fl
We already know from polling that the main effects of Sandy were on the East Coast. Independents swung for Obama big time. I was afraid it would swing Virginia independents but it doesn’t look like it has. We’ll see.
DON’T PAY ATTENTION TO EXIT POLLS!!!
Anyone ready to call VA for R?
O’Reilly has this country nailed – “people want things. Who will give them things”.
100% correct. And I will add that more Americans are ignorant now than ever before. This isn’t going to be a landslide for Romney like I was really hoping for. There are just too many ignorant liberals in the country.
We have killed ourselves from the inside out.
Well
Really, you concern trolls need intense therapy.
David Freddoso ?@freddoso
Youth turnout in VA, per exits, fell from 22% to 16% of the electorate. http://bit.ly/UhUnwF
Connie Mack has ran the worst campaign in the history of politics. I never saw an ad, a flyer, nothing, he just allowed himself to get shellacked by Nelson in the advertising on TV etc. Nelson when asked a question: “A long time ago, I went to space.” What a maroon….
I’m checking in… Wanting to see my hedgehogs calling race for Mitt so I can go to bed and get my beauty rest.
Philip Klein ?@philipaklein
RT @SeanTrende: Would be very surprised at this point if Romney wins VA. Not getting the swings he needs.
MD- one thing i will disagree is that Gallup said all movement toward obama was in NEast- Christie still dead tome – but until barone says we lose ohio i am wobbly confident
Its nice to hope but you gotta look at the numbers ,Not good. D turnout is there and so is ours.
Too many takers
The exits say 73% white. Can that be right?
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY Go Duke!!!! is in the house!
exit polls are done by and for liberals, no different than PPP polling.
Trying to depress us and suppress our western vote.
We lost two Senate seats so far.
We need to show ooo that his time wasn’t wasted and let him use his concession speech.
R leading FL now
Hard to really tell what is going on with all the early vote being released first.
O’Reilly is bringing me down. About ready to turn him off
Foxnews punditry is saying Obama’s chances are good….maybe they need to not follow the exit polls
WTF is with O’Reilly????????
Romney did sprint to the finish line!
Fox is just awful. Awful. Awful
O’Reilly is right about the direction of our country though.
78
Do it.
For some reason Mitt is winning Broward 2-1 per CNN.
DW, where are you? Virginia sounds bad.
I’m watching CNN, you can already tell media is wishing it was still 2008.
Go DUKE!!! is back! Full panic mode is on. She has seen it before.
Fox in general is a total downer. If you didn’t know any results you would think that Barack Obama has won easily. WTF
63% reporting in KY-06. Barr lead up to 8%. Almost ready to call a Republican pickup here.
One good sign in VA. Goode vote is tiny.
Obama won lake County OH–Bellwether OH county by a 1000 votes in 2008.
Obama only won the early vote in Lake county by 1000 votes. He won the early vote much larger in 2008. I don’t I have the exact number but it was much larger.
We need Hannity
Trende says we lose VA. WTF????
TN. Suprise!
Hillsborough County in Florida just flipped to Romney
Romney way up in VA
Sorry I had to leave for a few minutes.
HELLy BELLY!!!!
Pause in va vote coungting
So where is Polaris?
Where is DW to tell us VA will be OK????
Romney up 100k in FL.
O Reilly defines a running campaign by appearing on his show. BS
#94, Big N Va. counties have not reported yet, neither has Richmond.
fairfax county is reportin in VA. know we will know if the obama gap there is enough to overcome rest of state.
Romney is running way ahead of Allen. Surprising to hear he may lose
Fox sounded really gloomy in 2004 as well.
I don’t see VA looking bad. Long way to go, but the margins look OK to me so far.
Philip Klein ?@philipaklein
RT @SeanTrende: Would be very surprised at this point if Romney wins VA. Not getting the swings he needs.
Oreilly really is a moron.
He’s the Fox News version of Chris Matthews.
Romney ahead in Prince William Co. (VA) by 19 pts. Obama took it by 20.
Polaris likes to be absent during this time.
Dick Morris?@DickMorrisTweet
#election2012 so far I see nothing to disabuse me of the notion that Romney will win by a lot. Nothing to confirm it either
Fox is, has been, and apparently always will be unwatchable on election nights….its more important for them to get BOR his air time (spouting whatever the last tid-bit he heard before coming on air) rather than doing any hard, continuing analysis.
Mourdock is running 16 points behind Romney? Do you hear that dead enders? 16 points. Imagine that on a national scale? That would equate to a lose of, oh, 70 House seats.
Dick Morris ?@DickMorrisTweet
#election2012 so far I see nothing to disabuse me of the notion that Romney will win by a lot. Nothing to confirm it either
Dick Morris ?@DickMorrisTweet
#election2012 Fox news is saying that the exit polls show a high minority turnout. but that is based on weighting rather than real data

How is the tingler?
It is way too early for gloom and doom. We do know that Obama way underperformed on early voting. We also know that exit polls grossly exagerate D participation – as they did in 2004, 2008 and WI recall.
Chill – the numbers actually look good.
I agree with that last comment by morris
BOR is pissed that Romney would not come on the air with hm.
Yea, they should keep the talking heads off. Just go straight news with analysts. Would love to hear from Barone.
In rural areas Romney is getting the margins he needs in VA. Urban and surburban is still too much out to know.
I remember watching Fox on election night in 2004, they were so depressing until it appeared that Bush was clearly winning. What is the problem at Fox?
Fla way too close
19% of OH vote in and Romney behind by 19%. Is that good news?
My CNN page went haywire so I’m blind right now in florida
112 Great post MD.
More VA #s coming at 8:30 EST. They suspended the count.
“Fox is, has been, and apparently always will be unwatchable on election nights….its more important for them to get BOR his air time (spouting whatever the last tid-bit he heard before coming on air) rather than doing any hard, continuing analysis.”
Good point. gotta change to CNN. first thing I see….gloria borger
Not sure CNN is much better.
Dick Morris sounding very decisive right now.
I’m confused. Fox depressed. People posting here depressed. Numbers look great for R. What am I missing?
MD I believe Cuyayoga reports early as is EV
CBS just moved Ohio to Obama
stop attacking my boyfriend! Christie 2016! Go Obama!
Thank God for Rove.
Rove says VA swing counties look good for Romney
123
That seems to just be the early vote numbers.
Fox shows Romney up in MI with 1%. I assume that is early vote.
131.CBS just moved Ohio to Obama
Comment by STLScott — November 6, 2012 @ 8:24 pm
called it?
Rove just mentioned my VA county
@ 131 and by moved that is a leaner not an actual call
#108 – if that’s true, over 20 point swing to Romney in Prince William Cty VA that’s huge.
MD – that is where the numbers are coming from – that is bad news for Obama, where he won Cuyahoga county by 40%..if that keeps up, Romney wins Ohio.
Am Listening to Hugh Hewitt show…he has several
fellows with him discussing the votes. Hugh is the main commentator. I feel more comfortable than I do the cable networks. Hugh still feels good about Mitt Romney. Mike Medved speaking…he makes sense. Want Romney to win…wrote a book that Romney will win and why.
Still hope…
NC – Romney in the lead
FL – Romney in the lead
VA – Romney in the lead
OH – Obama in the lead, but big blue areas already reporting results
I’m feeling confident
Rupert — nerves.
You are missing nerves.
128
Which way?
http://viralread.com/2012/11/06/election-night-follow-these-experts-on-twitter/
Ohio looks bad. EV has him up by the same margin as 2008. Looks really bad.
Moved to lean Obama
Rove bullish on Mitt in Ohio
123. THere is a huge amount of Cuyahoga votes in with Obama up 100k.
Fox News is like an Romney obituary right now.
so sad.
with Karl its been all upbeat
Everyone on Fox all think Obama has won.
We’ll know nothing about VA until NOVA starts to roll in. Romney needs to do well in the wealthy suburbs.
I don’t know what to think
Every election we go through this. If HHR had been around in 1984, we would have had people freaking out, too.
re: 131
STLScott…..step away from computer….2 hours for premature nonsense.
Romney is winning Wake County, N.C., with 89% in 51-47. McCain lost that county 57-42 four years ago. Raleigh is in that county.
Cuyahoga netted Obama 250K votes in 2008…he is underperforming there!
Karl Rove is picking me up!!
very upbeat Karl is high on oh fl and va. we will see
For all the VA doubters:
Adrian Gray ?@adrian_gray
VA: Henrico county O+4 is 8% behind 2008. Montgomery county R+11 is outperforming Bush 2004. Still early.
Don’t have any idea where Henrico county is, but it sounds good.
Guys, what is gong on w fla?
Hi all, I am/stressed….I am praying for Mitt
FL just moved to Obama by 3%.
#156,
We wouldn’t have had time to fret in 1984. It was over too quickly.
Looking good in Ohio.
Rove is giving me hope once again…wow what swings we are going through. Keep the faith
Rove seems optimistic.
In 84 it was already over by now. I remember it well.
Fox needs to just keep Rove on…did great analysis just now on VA, Oh and FL….says Romney ingreat shape!
Emerica GFY
NC looking very good.
Romney is doing well in North Florida… this may bode well in Virginia and Ohio…
#162, Basically, Henrico surrounds Richmond.
Adrian Gray ?@adrian_gray
VA: Henrico county O+4 is 8% behind 2008. Montgomery county R+11 is outperforming Bush 2004. Still early.
@apologetic Ca – Where are you getting those numbers from? When they first released Ohio numbers it was all EV and Obama was only 100k ahead.
#164, Lets all pray for Mitt and our Country.
167 – Bruce
Give me your thoughts on that. Pick me up brother!
We may need WI
When does WI polls close?
#167, yeah??
Somebody needs to tell Wolf Blitzer that it’s “project”, not “preject”.
…in the Hellbelly household we’re watching the “Big Bang Theory” on TBS and reading the HHR.
Helps keep my sanity (well, the scotch doesn’t hurt either).
158 – the numbers aren’t right. IT’s not 90% reported.
We’re doin it folks…we’re gonna do it
Karl Rove just now on FOX says good things about VA, OH, and FL for Mitt. Sounded encouraging.
so,epne give me the Spark Notes summary. been gone.
We really need to know where the vote is coming from in FL. If it is all the Gold Coast that may be OK, if not-not so good.
Any word on VA tidewater region?
@185 LOVE IT!
Rove actually thinks Mitt will win… or he spins really, really well
If watching FOX…ONLY turn the volume up if barone or rove are on.
The rest are idiots.
Romney 350
Of all the fox people, perhaps with the exception of Barone, Rove is the one to listen to. The rest spout conventional wisdom.
He is a very smart guy.
Wow. So many panicers here
Rove is seeing what I am seeing – that Obama is significantly underperforming and Romney is overperforming…we are in great shape.
Ben Domenech ?@bdomenech
RT @mattsheffield: @bdomenech Virginia numbers are looking good for Romney. He’s outperforming McCain in every county but 4
Our results system is almost perfectly set up to maximize Republican despair:
Early votes? Favor D’s, counted first.
Big cities? Favor D’s, reported first.
Y’all need to learn to stay calm for a bit longer.
Nt
193. Agree. The Fox pundits are Uninformed.
177, sorry I was looking at CNN’S OH. I just assumed the gap is EV only. I could be completely wrong since most counties haven’t reported anything, but the EV is mucking up the number of votes that are “in.”
Obama seems to be doing very well in FL. What don’t I know?
henrico on North and Chesterfield on south of City of Richmond
Chesapeake VA:
Obama won it by a whisker in 2008.
Tonight
Romney 55
Obam 43
80% in.
183
DITTO
Philip Klein ?@philipaklein
I think @SeanTrende may be overly neg on Romney’s chances in VA. Just 24% in, and he’s even outperforming Bush in a few cos
nt
would be good to know how mitt is doing in tampa
wb go duke
@201 pan handle
it is only 8:30 people stop we will know better around 10 pm
I don’t know anymore, I’m checking out.
Only concerning thing about FL so far is that Obama is up 5% in Tampa with about 40% left to go. Everything else looks okay.
i care about one thing only what does Barone think is happening in ohio
The % in and EV system is totally messed up. In FL Obama has a massive lead in Miami-Dade but is 0% in. I assume % in is election day voting but is totally inaccurate. Makes it impossible to figure what is going on.
romney leading 51 to 47% popular vote
that makes the math really difficult for obama
new thread
Critz (D) campaign sounding less than confident
“7:50 pm: Mikus also says that every target precinct for the Critz Campaign in Johnstown is over 70 percent turnout
4:40pm: Critz spokesman Mike Mikus said he’s heartened by universally strong turnout, in Dem as well as GOP areas. He said Rothfus’s numbers among independents and Republicans as strong, so turnout in areas like Johnstown and Aliquippa (Beaver Co.) will be key”
@ 215 they haven’t begun to count NY or the pacific coast yet.
The liberal areas in North Florida are basically done… there is still a lot of red out there versus se florida
I’m not panicked at all. Fla is one sexy beeeatch. s. fla hasn’t even posted numbers and BAM is up pretty solid. I better get drunk fast. don’t wanna be sober when they call the whole card game.
I hate the stress….Please, Lord, preserve our nation. Please let Romney win.
O’Riley lied. Obama not up 8 pts with Independents in NH. Only up 2
