Just curious, we can move it to politics after the election or we can split the topic and continue it in the politics section. ;-)

It will all come down to which one carries Florida and Ohio. Even if you win a majority vote....it will still be determined by our electoral vote. Both of those states are still in the 'undecided' and carry very large electoral votes based on the large population of those states. .

Florida has 24...Ohio probably has the same. A winner only needs 276 electoral votes....so you see the situation!!!

I WILL predict this. Watch your news in the days to come. The Democrats will do EVERYTHING in their power to throw out the military absentee votes just like they did last time and less than 50% ended up being counted. Already in one state they are claiming the ballots weren't all 'sealed' correctly! GOOD GOD...they are being sent in bulk from Iraq! Maybe due to the humidity they unsealed while in a truck.

THAT makes me mad. If ANYONE should have a voice it should be them!

I already got one email from someone in the military who is having problems with his absentee vote.

When you lose an election and all else fails, claim the vote is rigged.

Don't worry Merika, I'm sure the vote is rigged. The candidates were too close for it to be an honest race.

It seems to be going very well....as far as the fairness and without incident. I'm a nervous wreck though!!

I don't think anyone other than Stoneheather is watching...but just in case....here's a computer link I'm using. (You have to refresh often)

We'll see how fair it is after the dust settles. It's the election fallout I'm interested in seeing.
