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..

guyFAwkesreQuiem · 05/11/2008 02:56

feck - 82% in Indiana - only 7,000 votes separating them!

AmIWhatAndWhy · 05/11/2008 02:56

Oh the bbc coverage is getting even more like eurovision. Can you get cnn online?

guyFAwkesreQuiem · 05/11/2008 02:59

msnbc live stream online just announced that there comes a point in every election that you have to say one candidate cannot reach 270 and that even with Texas, you'd say that of McCain now.

guyFAwkesreQuiem · 05/11/2008 03:00

projected win for Obama in Iowa

dooneygirl · 05/11/2008 03:00

Go Indiana!!! Go Superbunny's boyfriend. Keep going!

flummery · 05/11/2008 03:02

Obama stretches his lead in Florida - Miami metro results just coming in but expected to favour Obama.

LadyOfRoffle · 05/11/2008 03:03

BBC & CNN have different 'results'... Confused

guyFAwkesreQuiem · 05/11/2008 03:03

he's still marginally ahead in Virginia too

dooneygirl · 05/11/2008 03:03

Yes!!!

ABC is doing a soppy story on Iowa right now that is almost making me crying. They're talking about how it all started for Obama there, and the state is only 2% African-American, and how amazing it was he won the primary there.

guyFAwkesreQuiem · 05/11/2008 03:06

oh and few more come in in Indiana - 9,000 adrift now.

Slurbama · 05/11/2008 03:08

ooooh still here. I had to giggle at Eddie Izzard just now though!

flummery · 05/11/2008 03:10

nbc now has Obama ahead in Virgina, Florida, Colorado and North Carolina.

They're also reporting South Dakota abortion ban failed and Colorado ref to define life as beginning at conception has failed and no Republican senators left in whole NE corner.

guyFAwkesreQuiem · 05/11/2008 03:13

flummery · 05/11/2008 03:18

They're putting Obama ahead in Arizona - Arizona??!! - only 10% of the vote counted, but Obama has 55% of the vote there so far.

dooneygirl · 05/11/2008 03:18

Expat!! Congratulations.

Wouldn't that be the icing on the cake, flummery? ABC was saying Obama could take it, because of the Hispanic vote being very Anti-McCain, and they're also having big foreclosure problems there.

expatinscotland · 05/11/2008 03:22

thanks and congrats to obama, too
