Re: Over/under?
You ladies are killing me, I'm going to be exhausted tomorrow!
I'm going to be optimistic and say 10:30.
I hope you are right! I guess it depends on how close it is. If it is too close to call in OH and they have to count provisional ballots, they can't even begin to count them until 11/16.
LOL! that's very specific. I'm going with 10:30pm. i don't think it will be as close as everyone says
LMAO!
Shortly after 9:00 PM Eastern Time.
We should know the results of NH, VA and Ohio by then. I'm trusting Florida to be a mess; it's Florida. But NH, VA and OH should pretty accurately predict the election. Nevada is basically safe Obama at this point, although Colorado is up in the air. Iowa's polls apparently close crazy late, but my hunch is we won't have to wait that long.
There are some scenarios that make for a late night, most of which involve Ohio and Florida both being too close to call until late in the night. Ohio could potentially create another Election 2000 where everyone goes to bed not knowing who won. But my own hunch is Obama will win Ohio by enough of a margin not to require a recount.
For real?
I don't mean that snarky. But you really think one candidate has it locked away tight?
I was thinking this. But I hope it's earlier, obviously.
Over.
Ha! Agreed...
I think Obama has it locked away. I can also see the winner being called before 11pm.
I could be way off! I have no problem admitting when I'm wrong, so that may be the case here, but I am with vlagrl in thinking it won't be as close (electoral vote wise) as everyone thinks.
I'm of the camp (a small one, apparently) that thinks we won't have a definite answer by morning.
Except on the TP issue - Over FTW!
11:22 p.m.
This is like The Price Is Right?
That's cool. I get Cliffhanger.
I do along with missy. and as for my time , that's 10:30pm central time. I'm in the midwest. btw, missy my dd loves your dog photo in your siggy. she had to point to him and say "dog"....more like "do"
For the election: 11:45 EST
For the toilet paper: OVER is the only way. Come on.
my read shelf:
I think Ella won by eking it out from under Cats.
Dang.
