So i heard Obama became president...

Shin666 · 11-05-2008, 04:40 AM

Obama sweeped the popular vote appearently. My question is, how long til McCain sues for voter fraud?

An infinite amount of time...

And you put this is the serious section =\

Deg™ · 11-05-2008, 04:50 AM

currently, the popular vote stands at 51% D 48% R

By no means a sweep. We don't however need 100+ topics about Obama's victory, and gloating is not to be placed in serious discussion.

The landslide is in electoral votes. You cant really base an election on popular votes, especially since you lived through Bush/Gore in 2000.

The electoral is currently projected, but yes, it could be a landslide. Never claim victory until every vote is counted is my stance, and when doing so, do it with grace.

Most projected states, are only projected when comparing the turnout, to registrations. For example, in PA, unless some mass fraud or burning of votes is found, its numerically impossible for McCain to catch up, even if all the no shows decided to vote for him.

But yes, I do agree with you. Like I said, gore//bush. You gotta have that stance after watching that election.

Oh, i'm not saying he still has a chance, i just don't like the audacity of people proclaiming victory with literally less than 50% of the votes counted, even if it's pretty sure; you don't do that.

a major news outlet would lose a ton of money if they waited any longer to report on who won when the outcome was clear.

the audacity,
...how dare they.
