As of yet CNN is moving faster than NBC, the former called West Virginia about 10 minutes before NBC did. There seems to be alot of discussion about the process of calling elections and I guess that is not a surprise given the problems with calling the last election. It sounds like these networks would rather risk calling the election later than everyone else rather than calling it wrong. I wonder how the politics and economics of that situation works.
Holy shit, NBC is reporting that 1 out of every 7 voters in North Carolina is under 30 years old. I would gather that is a huge part of the reason that race is still too close to call. I said a couple weeks ago that if we pull this off we will might have P. Diddy to thank for it and youth turnout is looking that way. "Vote or die motherfucker, motherfucker vote or die, if you don't fucking vote I'll stick this knife right in your eye."
If you didn't watch last week's South Park you missed a funny set of jokes. While I like John Kerry significantly better than Giant Douche (notably, Giant Douche was fucking funny), I think the final quote of the episode ("Your choice is almost always between a douche and a turd") is more than occassionally accurate.
Kerry takes a giant swing in the 8:00 hour, jumping 74 electoral votes and securing New Jersey, a fairly minor swing state, but the first of the contests certainly. There is a woman on NBC news who looks like Donna Pinciatti grew up, went shopping at Banana Republic, and put on a turtleneck. Redheads get very little play on the national news. I think it has something to do with carrots.Pizza!
