Ok, Ohio is suddenly getting very interesting



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

Ok, this is getting interesting. We WERE down 150,000 votes in Ohio with 87% of the precincts reporting. A few minutes ago, with 94% reporting there we were only 100,000 down from Bush. We gained 50,000 - cut our deficit by a third - in the past few minutes. Now to the provisional ballots.

The Ohio secretary of state says that in 2000 they had a little over 100,000 provisional ballots, 90 percent of which ended up being good ballots. They're projecting 150,000 or more provisional ballots this time around in Ohio. Again, if 90 percent are good, that means 135,000+ votes outstanding.

If we get 2/3 or so of those votes, and the other states we need, we could still win. It all depends where those provisional votes are from, and how we do with the last 7% of the precincts.

This is still not clear how it's going, but it's not over yet.
