Local TV just reported that the counting is done, and NC's 15 Electoral votes have been awarded to Obama

Yeah. My sis just called me from Charlotte with the news. We're thinking of moving to NC and I'd love to move to a blue state.

It's far from a solid blue state.

Neither is Oregon where I live - but they're blue enough.

I saw two in this great map by NYT! I was surprised to see solid - OK solid red, VT solid blue (I know how liberal VT is but figured there'd be a tiny bit of red)

President Map - Election Results 2008 - The New York Times

Also they have AK as solid red and HI as solid blue.
