to save his server, I'll post the numbers here: according to the VNS, by way of Jerome Armstrong (the guy who got Kos into blogging) the early numbers in swing states are: (drumroll)

	AZ	CO	LA	PA	OH	FL	MI	NM	MN	WI	IA	NH
KERRY	45	48	42	60	52	51	51	50	58	52	49	57
BUSH	55	51	57	40	48	48	47	48	40	43	49	41

Keep in mind that early exit polls are thought to lean (yes!) right.

Look at that! My home state pulling for Kerry! On Wisconsin, go Packers!

I knew WI wasn't in play.

I just voted here in Seattle, and although there wasn't a line, it's still early in the day.

It's funny... I never realized until this election that MN and WI were swing states. I always thought they were staunchly democratic.

(I'm over here via zoje_george's comment on stellanova's journal, by the way! Hello! And thank you!)

hello and you're welcome (following trail back...)

Heh. What's that, Ireland, to Seattle, to NY? Or Seattle, to Ireland, to NY? I'm not sure where jeejeen is located, but stellanova is in Dublin.

Here in Minnesota we swing both ways — er, back and forth...

We're the state of oscillation.

Yeah, but, well, Wellstone.

Whatever happens we still owe you.

I don't ever think they are. When they have veered right, it's usually an aberration. Wisconsin is still working off that Joe McCarthy karmic debt, I think.

But this isn't counting the rural returns yet either. Southeastern Wisconsin usually bleeds blue though.

(Oh, I added you -- we keep showing up in mutual friends' comments. Heh.)

Oh please. Oh please. Oh bless you. Let it be true.
