for real. Im still confused though. Not all the votes are counted? Like the ballots closed for cali/wash/oreg like 12 min ago. So how did they just auto announce it for obama?
Obama had to get 270 electoral votes to win. He got wayy more than that. So they didn't bother counting the rest, because it was impossible for mccain to win.
P.S. I go to the same school that Obama went to!! Rep Punahou!!!
it's all based on stats. it's safe to say stats are for the most part accurate and they can say x will win y and z will win a. they are wrong sometimes but from the looks of things Obama will be your next president. and that noise you hear is a global sigh of relief
