It would seem, according to CNN at least that Gore took Florida and Pennsylvania.
Open Duh-bya's shirt and plant stake over place where the heart should be (since conservatives don't have a heart)...now it's just a matter of waiting for the hammer to hit it.

Yeah, there are no vowels in ancient Hebrew, except O. Thus what's pronounced "Yaweh" is YHWH.
As for the votes, someone jumped the gun. Bush is ahead in Florida, and Michigan, and pretty darned close in PA.

Yep, Florida is now too close to call, but all the stations are still calling Michigan a Gore state (yet ABCNews.com says Bush is killing Gore in Michigan). New Mexico was also called a Gore state, but Bush is only behind by 1% now. It's 217 - 173 in the electoral votes now, Bush winning.

OK, I just added up the electoral votes for myself.
I made a list of all the states Bush had in the bag, all the states Gore had definitely won, and the tossups. Even WITHOUT Florida, Michigan, and California, all of which Bush is winning in at this point, Bush still has over 270 electoral votes.
It's his.

OK, there are now 5 states left: Florida (25 votes) Oregon (7 votes) Nevada (4 votes) Iowa (7 votes) Wisconsin (11 votes)
It is currently TIED at 242 electoral votes a piece. If one candidate gets Florida, the other candidate MUST get Oredon, Iowa, and Wisconsin to TIE the election again at 267 electoral votes a piece. It will then come down to the final 4 electoral votes from Nevada to push one candidate to 271!
This is DAMNED close! Bush only leads the popular vote by .7% (less then 600,000 votes, which 71% of precents reporting in)

Don't forget the military votes and the other people who must and still need to vote. It's 50/50 right now!!!
Damn this thing is too close. Will the next president be a homophobic moron or a homophobic liar? Hmm, either way, I'm screwed...

Then again, AP wires report the Florida vote may change as the Broward County votes are counted...as of 3:10 am.

The majority of liberals aren't stupid. A reasonable-sized chunk, yes, but not the majority, by any means. Most are simply ignorant.
Fine. The Majority of Liberals are ignorant to the wishes of most of the upper class. The Majority of Conservatives are ignorant to the cries of most of the lower class and virtually all of the bottom-of-the-barrel people.
You wanna typecast Liberals? Fine, so be it. At least that's what I've noticed here in Ontario.

I don't think that anyone who would propose that I, a lower-class income person, pay NO Federal income tax, is ignorant of my desires. :P
Unless massive voter fraud goes on, Bush should win it.
Of course, it was awfully nice of the media to announce that Gore had taken Florida early on, so that all the people STILL VOTING in the Western part of Florida (they're on Central Time, if you didn't know) could go home.
Hey, didja know that Bill and Hillary were campaigning for her senate seat in New York by going to black churches? Isn't that against federal law?
