    Better way to look at Florida than % precincts reporting is % of the vote. In 2008, there were about 8.3 million votes in FL. So far, we're at 7.2MM. So somewhere around 1 million votes to go if turnout is the same.

    Donnelly defeats Mourdock ("Rape Pregnancies are God's Will") in Indiana.

    Should have been a win for Republicans but they nominated an extremist and lost. They got rid of Dick Lugar for this guy. Lugar wouldn't won.

    Romney's lead increases slightly in North Carolina and Virginia.

    Obama continues to lead in Ohio and Florida.

    The map for Florida on HuffPo is interesting. All the red counties save the panhandle are at/near 100%. Not the large blue counties of Broward (24%) and Miami-Dade (15%). Question would seem to be would/could those panhandle votes offset the remaining likely Obama edge to come in? Seems unlikely.

    Ohio is Obama. They knew that when they called the Senate race there. They are keeping up the suspense.
