Edited on Wed Nov-08-06 03:05 AM by OPERATIONMINDCRIME

WTF just happened?

All of a sudden it's only 70% reporting. What the hell's that all about?

2. Fox shows Tester uo by 2% at least

CNN is less positive for our side, worse than Fox.

3. Figure updated 3 minutes ago from the Montana SOS...

have a number of small counties out.

It also shows Tester's lead at 3%, 1% more than the CNN and FOX and MSNBC counts.

4. Billings? Missoula?

7. Billings is Burns country

I would assume that Missoula is Tester's, as it is the university town.

13. There's no Burns County in Montana. Billings is in Yellowstone Country.

Why are you posting shitty lies?

16. look again: the poster said that Billings is Burns countRy...

... as in, a lot of people likely to vote for Conrad Burns live there.

We all have tired eyes at this hour. That's the problem.

14. Yeah, to like 5500.

It was about 7000 at 74 percent, then 6500 at 70 percent, now 5500 at 74 percent.

I wonder if there was an error in the reporting?

15. Maybe I'm tired and my eyes are playing tricks on me, but...

has Yellowstone County been reporting a zero total all night? I could swear I saw votes there at one point, and Tester was ahead, but now it says zero? Please tell me I was wrong before. (Thanks?)
