I can't believe this.

Fuck.

Rebelius · 3rd November 2004, 01:12 PM

i hoped but never really thought.

It's not totally confirmed though is it?

Daveoftheband · 3rd November 2004, 01:13 PM

nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo !

my dad wouldn't let me watch the thing on news 24 last nite an i missed the news this mornin.

but look at it this way, it was obvious kerry wouldn't get in coz this is bush's mess so we hav to put up wi it for 4 more yrs so bush can make a bigger mess then start to sort it then kerry or who-ever steps in and blames it on bush. the same happened wen george snr was in power durin the first gulf war b4 clinton took over.

Daveoftheband · 3rd November 2004, 01:26 PM

kaleidoscope · 3rd November 2004, 01:32 PM

We were all argueing with him that bush is a big fat shite, and he was saying how great he was and how us scots are afraid of change...

Im watcing the BBC map
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/shared/spl/h...ml/default.stm

it prompts you to download when new data is available. Flashing to let you know which states.

Although it looks like Bush will win the amount of provisional ballots in Ohio mean its still possible for Kerry to win. Hes what? 130K behind with 170K of votes to count. The provisional votes are predominantly people who have reistered recently (mainly angered at Bush???) and those overseas (how many troops in Iraq are happy? morale is very low) So although Bush could win these predictions have said that Kerry shoudl win 3/4 of them. This would close it to about 20-30k, dependinf on the ratio of these votes for Kerry he can still win.

Iowa and New Mexico are also very low amounts 10-20K so provisional ballots could come into play.

ANNOUNCEMENT:
can posters refrain from anti-American comments, wether or not you agre with Bush its the difference between disliking Americans and disliking the American government.

Rebelius · 3rd November 2004, 01:41 PM

so why are they talking about maybe not having to count those ohio provisional ones?

AlanG · 3rd November 2004, 01:42 PM

because they want to steamroll the democratic process.

the provisionals need to be checked to make sure the people getting them didnt vote twice. Probably if more votes come in and at the final polls Bush leads by more than the amount of provisional ballots available it will be declared.

word i was really offended by earlier post

^_mincher_^ · 3rd November 2004, 02:51 PM

meh, if he's pres again then he's pres again. Theres nowt much we can do about it. We only have to endure another four years and then we'll never have to put up with his stupidity again.

Assuming the world lasts 4 years that is.

RealR · 3rd November 2004, 02:54 PM

Its gonna be a very tight finish but I think Bush will get it.

Apparently the bible predicted (another) nuclear apocolypse in 2006. This result simply backs this up.

And into the eye's of the jackyl Bush says Ka-BOOM!
