It looks like the overwhelming majority of votes left to count are in strong democratic-leaning counties.
so... it's extremely unlikely

florida might still go to romney, if not, then certainly likely to go into recount I thought I saw a broadcast saying that there were more Obama supporters in miami-dade. Correct me if I'm wrong though. while the county itself is heavily blue the individual precincts can be heavy red. compare the numbers to 2008. romney is down 100k votes compared to 08 while obama is only down around 60-70k. assuming a percentage swing to obama of say 3% consistent with urban county swing for obama, romney will make up some ground there once the suburbs turn in

That plus the fact that Obama is technically already ahead (albeit by not too too much).

What? Southpark has no political bias at all. If annything they are liberal/democratic.
Didnt knew he was registerd libertarian, I must completely miss the libertarian messages, why i think they liberal/democratic is the manny episodes in wich they make fun of jezus /religion and the cynical vieuw they have on american foreign policy like in that episode about afghanistan. They make fun about nearly everything , and i realy can not see a bias.

450k v 270k
vs 08
500k v 390k
so unless romney lost 80k votes, the remaining precincts are red
i don't know about the demographics in the county. it is possible that the turnout among blue voters will fill out some of that difference.
