Day: November 6, 2012

Waiting with DD, LG, xstryker for Rmoney's concession speech at the Queen. Seriously this is a sweet win.  Can't wait for President Obama to speak and for these CNN people to shut up. Tell us of your first sighting of the "we need to be more conservative" excuse. Forward!

Post your comments and results for any local Delaware races, from Governor to NCCo Executive to the 62 legislative races up and down the state!

So the majority of the contributors at DL will be at the Queen tonight celebrating the reelections of the President, Vice President, Governor Markell, and Lt. Governor Denn, among others. So I don't know if we will be able to update the blog as often as we would like to. So post whatever you are hearing here, whether it has to with national results. There will be another thread for Delaware results. And can I say, thank God this is over!!!

A Democratic voter in the 6th Senate District received a mailer from Ernie Lopez's campaign, directing him to a false polling place. Here is the mailer:

NPR is reporting that voters in Belmont, Massachusetts were asked to leave the voting line so Mittens can vote without rubbing elbows with the riffraff. Meanwhile, Vice President Joe Biden stood in line with regular folks to cast his ballot at his polling place.

As you may know, a very small town in New Hampshire named Hart's Location votes at Midnight. Well, the tally was Barack Obama 23, Mitt Romney 9, Gary Johnson 2. That's 68% to 27% to 5%. Landslide.

So, here we are. Election. The ultimate polling report. The only poll that matters. Well, we got some more polls yesterday to report to you, including 18 national polls, and nearly twice as many state polls. Before we get to the numbers and the map and my prediction of the final outcome, here are some great guides about the swing states, including past results, final polling averages and poll closing times: Harry Enten and the Economist. The average of all the following final national polls is Obama 48.94, Romney 47.11, or a 1.83 point lead for the President. The national polls have clearly moved in the President's direction over the past week and during the final weekend, and I think, with the undecideds either splitting evenly or, as some polls like the NBC/Wall Street Journal Marist poll shows, towards the President, then we could be looking at a 4-5 point margin in the popular vote. Something along the lines of O 51, R 47. And here is our final poll projection map. And come inside to see my final prediction, which is a little different from the final poll projection map.
