CNN calls it at 11:03pm. Obama with 297 electoral votes, McCain with 135. No chance for McCain. It's over! More to come...

...if you haven't voted by now, well...get out there. So far a few snags, sounds like a bit more than that in PA and VA. A huge turnout nonetheless, still you can never be sure. If the other party wins well...

This election is seeing record numbers of voters, with reports at some stations of lines of more than 8 hours in early voting. If you experience a problem being able to vote you should report it. The Huffington Post has a page dedicated to news on voting problems and information on how to report such problems if they occur in your area.

In the past, measures such as Poll Taxes kept certain demographics (the poor, which often also meant minorities, especially in Southern states) from voting. Today there are still means employed to make it more difficult for people of certain areas to vote, like lack of voting machines necessary per capita in certain districts (see this report on problems in Virginia). Make certain your vote is counted, let nothing disenfranchise you.

...I mean the Canadians. Errr....Maybe French Canadians? Anyway, remember that fear mongering 3 am ad that ran early in the campaigns? Baaah...that ain't scary. You want to be scared, just remember this phone call here when you pull the curtain tomorrow. Even the most sensible of neo-cons, Christopher Hitchens (we can call him that as an Iraq war supporter, yes?), gives Palin a good jab at her ambassador qualities here, as she lingers on longer than one could imagine with a couple of prank callers. At the very least McCain and Palin need better handlers. Well it's a little late now, only one day away, VOTE people.
