US Election Watch - we'll be here for a while!

[taliac]

After the success of the all day / night London Election party we had earlier in the year, who fancies one for the US election?

Lots of nothing news so far from the US - some polling stations have long queues, but others don't! John McCain says tomorrow he "will be the President of the United States!" Sarah Palin is "very optimistic!" Hilary Clinton is predicting a big Obama win! Obama has been playing basketball!

Its going to be a good one..

ha! right you bunch while we are waiting I am sure we can improve on.....

me sauntering in with homemade pom poms

Go 'Bama
you the best
well better than rest
you a lefty
well a slightly
but not a wanky
so go Obama
dont let the barmy
sarah get a foot in
or she put in
all crap.

okay?

think I may not be accepted into cheerleading school of honours. (or indeed honors)

ooo Obama still behind in Indiana - but the actual numbers of votes are closer

any idea when we might get some more results? i'm wilting a bit...

We had a queue at our local polling station when George Galloway was standing against Oona King.

monkeys - Interesting, how long a wait was the queue?

North Carolina Obama still leading 54% with 15% in

Maybe half an hour. I think it was partly due to the large number of people voting who didn't have English as a first language and took a while to vote (or people like me who have to check their paper 100 times). It was really busy though & unlike anything I've seen before or since.

we're not going to know tonight are we?

I'm off to bed, can't stay awake any longer.

My Republican voting friend is off to a party, much as I love him I hope they've little to celebrate.

no polls close in ten, doesn't mean an projected results in.

woooooo it's looking good

Gonna have to jack it in after 2am results I think. At least I have done the lunches and ironing for tomorrow, can have extra bit of time in bed.

oh god don't mp. that's what i thought in 2000

I am interested to know when Ohio comes in..... or somewhere a bit.... decisive.

I thought we might know by now?

night tmmj

More polls closing in a few minutes - that should get things going again.

Lol at Slur

Yo Obama
you're the best,
Those Republicans are a pest
Sarah Palin is a nut
Obama kick her bony but(t)

While we're waiting. Do you think there are some Republicans lurking? Can it be that all MNers interested in following the election are supporting Obama?

shhhhhhhhh yes I remember it well

I've already slept for three hours hurrah
