I suppose it depends...if the precincts that have been counted are larger or smaller it will raise or lower that number accordingly....

You know what----I will have to check the numbers---but it seems that everywhere that Obama has not done a major push the turnout is okay or paltry.

I MAY BE WRONG----I will have to research the numbers from 2006, 2004,2002 and 2000.

they are hard to find.

better than 2-1 another monster wipeout by Hillary.
Obama can't get the Hispanic vote.

He's left with ultra-libs, ultra-rich, black, and elitist vote.

It's gonna be '72 all over again.

I am watching there too. I just wasn't refreshing the screen enough.

Obama is now ahead in the Hispanic vote by 7% in the national polls.

The next job will be for him to TRY to get them to become a second voting block for the Democratic Party!

TODAY PROVES that Hillary cannot do it!

Our folks on the ground sent an email through explaining that Hillary has insulted a lot of folks down there---trying to prove that she was Puerto Rican. Lots did not like her hard white working comments and they chose not to vote---because they don't know who Obama is and the Clinton campaign smear tactics have been beyond the pale there---causeing a LOT of hostilities between the Puerto Rican people and THEIR immigrants---the Dominican Republicans!

Bill Clinton has suggested that Obama was like a Dominican---but in fact the blood line is not very different and MANY MANY were insulted by his even mentioning it.

So---- a lot just didn't vote.

Oh well!

Hillary is shitting all over the country and the Democratic party is going to have to go behind her and wipe up the mess.

She is still not ahead in the popular vote unless she does her funny math thing.

More people have voted against Hillary Rodham Clinton than any other candidate in the History of the country!!

(ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU USE HER MATH---If she doesn't give those votes to Obama then they are definitely still votes against her!)
