We're not going to know who won for at least a week.
It's looking like BO takes Ohio and Wisconsin, 2 states Romney can't afford to lose and still win the electoral college vote, I believe Obama will be re-elected and the predicted result will be known by 11:00-11:30 PM ET tonight.

I'm outta this thread.
I don't know how accurate this is, but on CBC they are saying that the majority of the votes counted in Ohio are from the very Democratic north. If true, the numbers we're seeing right now could change a fair bit.

The counties that are Republican in Ohio don't compare in population with the areas that are Democratic. Right now about 73% counted, it's close, but Obama is ahead, and it looks like he will take it. CNN is projecting Obama to take it. Ohio hasn't chosen a losing president since 1960, no other state comes close to our record. Ohio is always a key state in the presidential elections. I mean both candidates were in Cleveland today for a last minute pitch.

I'm just glad to have this over with already. I can listen to the radio or watch tv without all the political ads, and not come home to having 10 political calls on my answering machine. I hate living in Ohio during presidential elections. You have no idea how bad it is in this state during this time.

Just looked at CNN and the are declaring Obama the winner. Ohio put him over the electorals he needed.
