Vermont and Kentucky have been called. If Jessy were here with the rum, that would be two shots. But why has Vermont been called with 0% of the precincts reporting? Silly Media.

North Carolina might be going Democratic! I am ridiculously excited. :D

How are you following it? CNN? They have it 65/35 for Obama.

I'm madly refreshing the little widgets on MSNBC's website - they have NC broken down by counties, too, which is nifty.

I'm still too jumpy to look at the TV news coverage yet, I can create my own hysteria right here at home perfectlywellthankyou. *flail*

Ah, it's time for all that craziness again. Been busy this afternoon, so the last I heard was about Obama's landslide victory in Dixville Notch, NH and Hart's Location, NH.

Was already a good sign for Obama, seeing as those two villages have voted Republican almost every election since the 60s.

Any news on Team Jon Lee write-ins?

Oh, and Maryland and Delaware have been called with BOTH CANDIDATES HAVING 0% OF THE VOTE.

More lulz?

I guess the Media isn't scared of the 2000 Florida scare anymore.

If square miles could vote, McCain would have won by a landslide - Borogroves

CNN's coverage was interesting, because they called races using the latest counts, but didn't necessarily post the updated counts in a timely manner. Seemed like it was the first news outlet to call most states, but also the last news outlet to post the vote counts it was using to call them.
