Are we losing NC?

Not that it matters, but it looks like McCain's picked up the lead there. More up to date news appreciated.

1. McJoke has a small lead :(

2. No, the big Obama counties have yet to report more than 25% of their votes. - n/t

3. Right now it's tied for all intents and purposes.

Mecklenburg County has not reported yet - it's huge and we should win there.

4. Considering the fact that Kay Hagan kicked Liddy Dole's BE-hind,

it doesn't look good for McCain.

5. 50/50 according to wral

Still much too close to call. However, major cities haven't finished counting votes. On the other hand, the remaining counties are pretty red.

In good news it looks like the Democrat may have won the governorship. Very very close race though.

6. Still waiting for Charlotte-- Biggest city, widely Democrat area

7. We're ahead by about 2 precincts' worth of votes

Nailbiter, but don't give up yet.

8. 10:30 pm. McLoon up 2500 votes with 82% reporting. (CNN)

Barr/Root (L) have 22,000 votes and over 12,000 write ins..

9. I just went and looked at the counties

And some of the counties with the least amount of precincts reporting are Obama areas, so it could easily turn back for Obama.

12. I hope so sleebarker. What source are you using?

10. NYT says 49.7 to 49.7. 82% reporting n/t

11. Obama is significantly under performing Perdue

That's the relationship I've been looking at all night. Perdue still leads the gov race by more than 100,000, while Obama has fallen slightly behind.

Prior to election day, many polls had Obama and Perdue roughly the same, up by a point or two. It looks like that was off. But both can still win. I'm thrilled Perdue is ahead. This is gravy for Obama. We can't afford to lose a governorship.

13. McLame is ahead at the moment, but.....

Mecklenburg hasn't reported all precincts yet, and the NC Board of Elections site has 0% reporting from Buncombe County. That's Ashevile, and O should do pretty well in that area. The NC BOE site kicks ass!
