Wisconsin Looks Good for Romney Campaign …Update: Wisconsin Goes to Obama

Here is what we have so far from Wisconsin:

We are at our vote goal in Madison
Over goal among middle aged voters
Winning independents by almost 7 points.

UPDATE: FOX News just called Wisconsin for Obama with less than 1% of the vote in.

   The states are called based on exit polling.

   They ask people in key precincts how they voted as they leave the voting booth.

   Very accurate, actually.

   Mitt is behind in FL by about 100,000 votes. Yikes! And the panhandle is coming in.

   Jersey was a thin reed for Romney.

   It actually shows how left Christie actually swings.

   No biggie, he didn’t need Blue Jersey.

   You won’t see early calls in VA, FL, OH, and PA

   They want concrete results in these states.

   Sarah, yes that was a big screw up.

   They reworked everything because of that.

   I thought states could not be called until ALL states have closed their polls.

    Here’s the link to the Florida page at Fox and w/60% reporting in FL, Obama has >100,000 vote lead over Mitt. Not good. Praying so hard.

    @30 – Yeah, I thought that was the rule, as well. But every year it seems to go out the window. It’s amazing to think this is how voting and reporting electionr results in the United States works. Surely we can do better.

    What’s going on in NC?

    Should have been put in Mitt’s column by now.

    Spider – RCP shows NC w/30% reporting and a tie between the candidates. Don’t know the regions that are reporting.

    Sarah, thanks on NC data.

    That’s a case were the exit polling must be fuzzy, they won’t call it.

    It’s a Romney state.

    Mitt’s catching up in FL w/69% reporting. The gap between them has narrowed from 100,000+ to 22,000+. Still would prefer if we were securly ahead, but hopefully the panhandle will flip this thing in our direction. We must win Florida.
