The 2004 Election Update Thread
 

Right this should only last for a few hours, but anyway.

The current figures stand, to the best of my knowledge, at 189 Electoral College votes for George Bush and 195 Electoral Votes for Kerry.
It would be nice if people displayed the scores like this:

BUSH: 189
KERRY: 195

It would also be nice if some kind soul would post the winner when the time comes. I don't want this turning into yet another argument on who will win and who is better etc so if you are looking for that go here.

All I can say is Good Luck to both sides!


Ok I was a bit uninformed about the results so far - here they are now:

BUSH: 261
KERRY: 262

Pressure is mounting as either side has only 8 or nine votes to go before winning as the majority.

reven, I'm really fed up with your double posts. For the last time, use the edit button. (for me, to delete is faster than to edit, FYI)

Re: The 2004 Election Update Thread
 

Sorry 'bout that - I really should. When have I double posted before? I only remember double posting right when I joined a couple of times.

Anyway the scores are still the same - Anyone know which states have still to announce the winner?

Yea, All of them. We will know about 10 PM Pacific time today.

Re: The 2004 Election Update Thread
 

Heh, I hope that cahnges to favor Bush. My school held a Moch-Election and we voted and the results from today say Bush won it ws like Bush: 340 sum to Kerry 280 sum.

Re: The 2004 Election Update Thread
 

Yea, it was similar in my school. I didn't participate in the mock election though.

Re: The 2004 Election Update Thread
 

Well Bush got 64 votes in our mock election, Kerry got 28, Badnarik got 3, and about 50 people didn't vote in it lol. I go to a very small school, btw.

Re: The 2004 Election Update Thread
 

ha, im in idaho, who do you think is going to win the mock election? lol. in my class, 23 bush, 13 kerry.

they havent counted them all yet. I already see where this is going though.

Re: The 2004 Election Update Thread
 

Well states like Texas and Idaho are a given for the Republicans, so I don't see these mock elections in our schools as indicative of Bush winning. Do you think Kerry winning a mock election in California schools(except for perhaps the OC) would be indicative that he'd win the election? Absolutely not.

I'm just wondering how these elections are going in Pennyslvania, Ohio, Iowa, Colorado, and Florida...

Btw, your state is ugly :p I mean, yeah, Texas may have a lot of dumb Bush-backers, but hey, its still a damn pretty place. The piney woods of the Northeast part of the state where I hail from, are just majestic. Idaho is just damn ugly. I went there once a few years ago, bleak, flat, no trees for miles...

Re: The 2004 Election Update Thread
 

Well, at my school the vote went 63% Kerry, 27% Bush, 5% Nader, and 5% Not Voting. I have already placed my vote for Senator Kerry and I am hopeful.
