Ohio, Ohio, Ohio

Under Ohio state election law, provisional ballots will not be counted for at least 11 days after the election. The way the votes are tallying up in New Mexico (Bush), Iowa (Bush), Wisconsin (Kerry), and Michigan (Kerry) and this point in the evening, neither party can win without Ohio. I suppose the Bush/Cheney campaign were able to scare enough Ohio folks on terrorism and gay marriage enough to make them forget how many jobs this administration cost them. But Florida has no excuse, and New Mexico is on my shit list

In Ohio, there are still about 400,000 regular votes to count, and maybe as many as 175,000 provisional ballots if it gets that far.

I haven't been drinking tonight, but I know that I'm gonna feel hungover in the morning.
