I don't know - she's got the kind of access to be able to get a hand on the secret exit poll numbers. (And, of course, even if this is accurate, it's not even 3:00 EST now, so nothing's over.)
"It's not a matter of whether the war is not real, or if it is. Victory is not possible. The war is not meant to be won, it is meant to be continuous. Hierarchical society is only possible on the basis of poverty and ignorance. This new version is the past and no different past can ever have existed. In principle the war effort is always planned to keep society on the brink of starvation. The war is waged by the ruling group against its own subjects and its object is not the victory over either Eurasia or East Asia but to keep the very structure of society intact." ---George Orwell, 1984
To be accurate, someone in one campaign or the other is feeding the numbers to both of them (and certiantly the real news orginizations), and that someone may or may not have pulled them out of thin air. You could debate if or who, but it probably won't matter by the end of the night; they're just entertaining now, especially that one with the big gap.
This is like watching a football game. Now it's inside of the two-minute warning, the fans have the ball, and we don't know the score. It's a real nail-biter. (That being said, I love it! I'm gonna couch-potato it tonight after I vote.)
BTW, electoral-vote.com has K 262/B 261. They're both losers (for now, with NJ even).
According to the original site in question, Wisconsin is counted twice (WI and WISC). We're just THAT cool.

Some people need to learn how to take a joke. I'm ScreamingHeadGuy, and I approve this post.
electoral vote changed their site due to new Fox/News polls, so take it for what its worth, they are calling a tie. Plus, he made mention of an attack on the site, so take that site with a grain of salt since the webmaster is doing so.
Originally posted by GrimisI was shocked when electoral-vote shifted back to Bush this morning, after having Kerry around 295 or so for the last three days.
Now, the site isn't even coming up.
Yeah--I just got the same when I went to refresh my browser. Too many hits I suppose.
I was surprised by the shift back towards Bush as well.

So am I. I love number-crunching and frankly, the unpredictable nature of the beast. Too much fun!

Reading the excerpts from that letter really just made me laugh. Gosh, how funny is it to think that these people take themselves seriously. Funny, and sad. And disturbing.
