Obama underperforming badly in VA

[Bullet1987]

In the southern regions Kerry lost. These are the people who would be affected by the Wright ad. Luckily we're looking good in NC and FL.

1. Let's wait until the blue North is counted- still hopeful.

[LostinVA]

Thed Cville numbers have already cut the lead

[Muttocracy]

11. Blacksburg not in yet, Norfolk going strong Obama so far. nt

[LostinVA]

20. I lived in Fluvanna -- I cannot believe how close Obama is there!

[LostinVA]

2. I don't think you've posted quite enough doom and gloom threads tonight

[Tarheel_Dem]

5. Ditto....

[Muttocracy]

3. you and others need to stop it - zero from Richmond, Norfolk few but 75% O so far

Cities are separate from counties in Virginia, and fewer cities have reported, nor the big counties in the east and north. Look at the county and city detail on NYT maps.

4. Says who?

CNN is saying Obama is outperforming Kerry in rural VA.

21. CNN is wrong here.

There's also been a surge in rural turnout since 2004. And Obama is getting beat worse in those areas than Kerry.

6. another awesome thread Buzz Killington.

[Connie_Corleone]

7. CNN said the exact opposite. WTF is your problem??

[LostinVA]

12. Notcie all their doom posts

[Thrill]

8. McCain is the one underperforming. Doing worst than Bush

[Quixote1818]

13. That is false. nt

[grimble_grumble]

[Tarheel_Dem]

15. I'm sorry, but you & DU'er "jezebel" go on my Iggy list....(nt)

[LostinVA]

23. Except Ignore isn't working now!!!!!!!!

[still_one]

16. Looking at the analysis on CNN Obama is doing much better than Kerry did and

that means when the North comes in we should win

18. settle down and look at this map >

notice how Fairfax County only has 2% reporting? wait until it comes in before you shed any tears...

[Borgnine]

19. Okay, when Obama wins VA, you buy me a round of drinks.

If it goes the other way, I'll pay.

[Swamp Rat]

22. Geauxbama!!!

[BlackmanX]

24. O gets 41% of the white vote and 95% of the black vote

blacks make up over 20% of the state wide vote so... 41+20= 61% of the vote Obama wins

[apnu]

25. Well FL is looking good so VA wont be needed. Plus NC is looking real good early. (nt)

[Muttocracy]
