Right now they're showing Romney has 50% of the popular vote, but there must be millions of uncounted ballots, especially on the west coast. In storm ravaged areas of New Jersey, ballots are going to be accepted through Friday. Also, there are absentee ballots and provisional ballots. I know this doesn't matter, but we'll be hearing "he didn't win the popular vote" for the next 4 years even though he is way ahead in the electoral college. The Romney campaign still hasn't accepted Obama's win in Ohio.

So who won Virginia? Who won Florida? Who won Colorado?

Based off what is left, its unlikely to be tied,my guess is a 3-4% Obama PV win.

I know, but I don't have to like it.

Weep for your country people, because it will never be what it used to or what you want (unless, of course, you're a socialist and/or communist)
