OH vote counts over time - graphs

[seaclyr]

Graphs are of (image 1) percentages (Bush% - Kerry%) vs. %vote reported and of (image 2) vote difference (Bush - Kerry) in 100,000s vs. %vote reported over election night. Hour markers on the graphs allow an estimation of when votes were reported. Percentages and vote differences were calculated from numbers reported on the cnn ticker (thanks jbond56) election night. Commentary later. Those interested can compare these patterns with those previously posted for SC and the popular vote.

2. I take it this is all actual count, no exit poll data? nt

5. Yes, actual counts

exit polls I believe had Kerry at 52%. Final vote count figure was 49%.

3. Site for all of the info?

I wish we could get a collaborated site that retains all of this information in one site.

charts,
graphs,
Law suits ect.


Is that feasible and would the owners of these graphs be willing to compile and publish?

6. What are we to make of these charts?

They seem to show that Bush jumped into an early lead, but his margin tapered off a bit in the wee hours of the morning. Still, he won easily.

My official data shows that at least 3 counties, one of which is very large, had big drops (>5%) in the Kerry percentages in those same wee hours.

I'll compare these charts with my county and state data.
