Anyone have numbers for turnout?
Youth turnout?

First-time voters?

Total number of voters compared to previous years?

5. Hold still while I carve this "B"
Yes, I'd love to know some turnout numbers but looks like MSM isn't crunching anymore tonight.
Hell, I'm still waiting for Missouri to come in.

Yep, it gets lonely here in the a.m., I'm always on at this time, but if ya ain't used to it (or they got up and actually worked today...) They probably crashed. There will be so many numbers on here tomorrow our heads will spin.

6. *holding still*
I can't wait to see the numbers.

I think they will finally show that young people cannot be taken for granted any more.

One of my neighbors, a 13-year-old Hispanic girl asked me where I had been, and I told her I was voting.

She asked me who I voted for and I told her "Obama."

And she said, "Good! I can't wait 'til I'm 14, then I'll get to vote!"

I had to break it to her that she won't get to vote until she's 18.

She looked so let down.

But, then she told me that she did vote in school and also voted Obama.

3. 115,732,311
From http://news.yahoo.com/election/2008/dashboard">Yahoo, at 4:41 AM EST, with 99% reporting.

It still looks a little low to me. We should have better figures by mid-day.

--p!
