Last edited Wed Dec 5, 2012, 07:24 PM - Edit history (1)


Ohio becomes 36th state to certify results: @BarackObama 2,827,621 (50.67%), @MittRomney 2,661,407 (47.69%). https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AjYj9mXElO_QdHpla01oWE1jOFZRbnhJZkZpVFNKeVE#gid=19

Another thread to celebrate our victory! And to celebrate the pollsters who were not influenced by right wing propaganda. The pollsters who were unbiased and factually accurate reported nearly unanimously that Obama had a solid, ironclad 3% point lead in Ohio. And that's exactly where he finished.

Did they have to drag Husted kicking and screaming to the official certification?

I am proud that we will be the ones to put him over that landmark. Wasserman says it's likely though not certain that his margin will also reach 5 million votes.

Planning Sheldon Adelson's $300 million down payment on the Rubio '16 campaign--15% commission going into rove's pocket, of course. A man's gotta eat after all--and if you look like Rove, a man's gotta eat a LOT.
