So you're saying... we can't trust the system? And yet, here we are :/
Yeah, I mean honestly, Florida's probably gonna recount. The real question is if Obama wins without even needing it.

Even without Florida, it looks like Obama has got this.

Uhm... I'm assuming that most American ballets aren't that complicated? Ours (Canadian) is pretty small, with just a couple checkboxes for the different candidates.

I'll do my post mortem tomorrow. Back to Halo 4. I want an analysis of election prediction methods, rather than Romney's campaign failings. This complex predictive analysis of the election has determined that Obama got this Specifically, I want a break-down of xDaunt's predictions, as he's made some fairly confident ones over the course of the thread.

If he gets florida then Obama just doesn't give a fuck, that's all he needs. Not necessary but would seal the deal immediately.

Back home, you draw a line between two ends of an arrow for your selection.
I don't understand how difficult people make ballots =\

The only way it comes down to FL is if Romney can pull off an upset in Ohio.
