It does not matter how big or small a particular city, town or precinct might be.

This is a perfect example of how democracy works, and this is the reason why the Founding Fathers of this nation died and fought for.

This principle goes back as far back as the small country towns and hamlets of the 16-17th century Europe, under the Iron fist of the crowns of that time.

For the rest of the country, is just a matter of bigger numbers, but the founding principle still applies the same.

Get out and vote people!

Romney might as well vote for Johnson.... Mitt's voting in Massachusetts!

@ Pat G,

Sure I'll vote for a man that ran off to France during a war. He'll make a great leader (sarc). I've got $10,000 Romney lies and says he's won.

What voters are saying about Obama:

1. "The Affordable Care Act is saving my daughter's life."

2. "Obama is for the vets. He helped us wind down in Iraq, he's improved mental health

policy with VA benefits."

3. "Obama stuck his neck out for us, the auto industry. He wasn't going to let it just

die, and I'm driving in this morning because of that, because of him."

4. "Osama bin Laden is dead, and General Motors is alive."

5. "Supreme Court Supreme Court Supreme Court."

6. "Arithmetic. Mitt Romney's tax cuts do not add-up"

7. "He cares for the 100 percent."

8. "When Obama came into office, he successfully renewed our country's place in the

community of nations, making cooperation in tackling the world's challenges possible."

9. "The actions he has taken with respect to protecting us from terrorism have been

very, very solid."

10. "I was really very grateful to him for standing up for those kids who are having a

really rough time out there because of their orientation."

11. "For me, President Obama is our best choice because he has a vision of the United

States as a place where we are all in this together."

12. "He has a real plan for rescuing the economy that passes the 'math' test."

13. "Having someone in office who understands how powerful our voice can be is very

important."

14. "I am voting for Barack Obama and Joe Biden because I can trust them to care for

the middle class and restore the American dream."

15. "The first measure he signed into law after becoming president was the Lilly

Ledbetter Fair Pay Act -- so a female high school counselor or physical education

teacher can fight for equal pay for equal work."

16. "I believe in the America he wants for my grandchildren."

17. "We need four more years of repair, of helping the middle class achieve a

sustainable economy."

18. "I've watched him fight for our country, stand by the middle class, the working

class, the military, the education of our children, universal health care, women, the

environment, and matters of national and domestic security."

19. "The gifted 12-year-old I taught, whose parents were deported and left her here

with her grandmother, will be allowed to stay and finish her education. She's been in

the U.S. since age one."

20. "I want our president to place scientific evidence and risk management above

electoral politics."

21. "I have four children who are under 26 and able to stay on my health care plan.

That's been huge."

22. "He's fighting to defend and better Social Security and Medicare -- because

millions of Latino seniors rely on them."

23. "Thanks to the President's efforts to keep student loan rates low, I can expect to

save nearly $1000 as I work to repay my student loans. And I don't have too many of

those, thanks to the Federal Pell Grant program."

24. "It's been wonderful to have President Obama as a champion for access to health

care for all women in this country."

25. "Re-electing Barack Obama would lead to a stronger economic recovery than would be

the case were Mitt Romney to win on November 6th."

Mmm, this is so tasty. I wan't to kiss the tears of Republicans when this is all over. I predict a sweep of all the swing states, even Florida, when this is all over. Democrats are massing large. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rSwQmNq6dVo

Good luck, Pres. O

People, Please vote, your vote is as valuable as one of the Koch Bros. today.

Big SIGH... I am so tired of Romneys camp throwing around the failed restaurant business from Richmond Va stating it is due to the excessive regulations and failed policies of the Obama presidency. Please read the COMMENTS from this Richmond Times Dispatch article about the issue... the people of Richmond will tell the true story. This whole scenario is just another example of Romneys shady lying ways. STOP IT ROMNEY, it is pitiful. Bills BBQ went out of business b/c their food was bad and their service was worse!!!

In Dixville Notch out of the 10 voters 2 were registered Democrat,3 Republican,and 5 Independent. Since 5 voted Obama,and 5 Romney. The President must have gotten 60% of the Independent vote.

Go vote guys.

Obama/Biden for America.

• WOMEN - REMEMBER.
• -
• Jobs will come back.
• -
• Your rights, once lost, will never.
• -
• Vote your conscience.
• -
• Vote Obama.

Nice to see Gary getting a vote. That's only 3%, we need 5% to get automatic ballot access and federal funding in 2016. Go vote, and if you don't live in a battle ground state, consider voting for Gary Johnson.

DingleB: if enough people do vote for Gary Johnson, maybe even Texas could be a battleground. Wouldn't that be an interesting change of events, Romney loses Texas to Gary Johnson.

$6,000,000,000,000 debt was complied by REPUBLICANS.

Stop Lyin

Fact: deficit 1.4 Trillion in 2008 currently 1.08 Trillion. The deficit has been reduced.

Go look that up you fox noise uneducated trailer park trash high school drop racist.

Uncle Bob, if you are trying to make a statistical point, you clearly don't know stats. This sample size is far too small to mean anything.

Romney collects 10 endorsements to Obama's 1

October 25, 2012 @ 12:05 AM

By the West Virginia Press Association

If you look at the trend lines since Oct 22 on 538 you see that Obama has steadily been gaining and today up again.
Obama widened his lead now up at 314[▲] electoral votes Romney dropped to 223[▼]
Even RealClearPol with No Tossup States has Obama up at 290 with Romney dropping to 248.
0 days left and Obama trending up with a big lead already. You do the math.

.

@Steve, I want to personally thank you for taking on the responsibility of the $6 trillion debt. Since you have indicated that it is now your family's, I appreciate your generosity.

The Republicans are already trying to steal this election.

VOTE! And then follow up to make sure it's counted.

Clackamas County identifies accused elections worker as Deanna Swenson of Oregon City

Clackamas County today identified the temporary elections worker accused of altering ballots as Deanna Swenson, 55, of the Oregon City area.

She was "relieved of duty immediately after the alleged ballot tampering was discovered," Tim Heider, county spokesman, said in a press release.

Swenson, who is registered as a Republican, also worked previous elections, at least back to 2010, said Scot Sedaris, county counsel.

Swenson is accused of filling in the names of Republican candidates on ballots where voters did not make a choice. Tampering with ballots is a Class C felony punishable by up to five years in prison and a fine of $125,000.

Screw them all, I voted for Snoopy! At least he has some class.

Spoiler alert remember the Ron Paul supporters? They are voting for Gary Johnson!!!

Steve: Hate to tell you this, but you need a history lesson in deficits. Oh, and you are thanking the wrong President for our current deficit. Lest we forget, GW Bush/Cheney/Rove got us into 2...count 'em 2...wars that were not paid for, the Medicare donut hole, Bush tax cuts, etc. THAT's why the deficit is untenable. Would you be thanking a President McCain had he won in 2008? Deficit would have been exactly the same under a Republican POTUS.

Chad: voting for Gary Johnson will just siphon votes from Romney.

Pat G: CLEARLY, you have not meet nor heard of Mitt Romney. If you look up the word "Liar" in the dictionary, his picture is right next to the definition. Look...it's okay - and preferable - to argue about policy. I mean, if anyone KNOWS what Mitt's policies TRULY are and want to vote for him - it's a free country. But, when folks just call Mr. Obama any of the following things: liar, socialist, Marxist, Muslim, un-American, non-citizen, anti-Christian, etc., etc. - I instantly know they have no real argument against him. Those words tell me all I need to know about the person uttering them. They REALLY say, "I want the Black man out of the White House."

Bolo-4496769

voting for Gary Johnson will just siphon votes from Romney

Yes, except for the votes he siphons away from Obama.

This email was waiting for me when I returned from voting for President Obama. SERIOUSLY?!? The GOP KNOWS it is done for and they are ALREADY MAKING EXCUSES! Imagine asking for donations at 3:13 PM on ELECTION DAY and whining about UNFAIR election tactics in a state where they tried to disenfranchise 90,000 voters with their "voter ID" law!!!! They must be trying to get enough money together for plane fare out of the country!

"We need your help and fast! Murals of President Obama inside polling places; Republican election officials forced to leave; and New Black Panther representatives spotted - these are the antics Democrats are pulling all across Philadelphia.This is what we're up against - they will stop at nothing to keep Pennsylvania! We need your support to stop them - please donate right now!

Please help us now to stop these scare tactics from stealing our electoral votes! "

-Rob Gleason, Chairman, GOP

Romney for 1% of Americans ... Obama for ALL Americans!

GOD BLESS AMERICA and SAVE AMERICA from the most divisive, arrogant, lying, empty suit in the WH.

Romney isn't in the White House, nor is he likely to get there. Sorry, Dotties girl.

The headline would have been the same no matter what the outcome, because that polling place is always the first to open and close. The second polling place to close took over 5 minutes, compared to 43 seconds.

If the race were shown as it is no one would be glued to the news looking at election returns. If you want to see who is going to win check the Vegas odds.

Obama can NOT run on his sorry record!!

[I]f you don't have any fresh ideas, then you use stale tactics to scare the voters. If you don't have a record to run on, then you paint your opponent as someone people should run from." That is what Barack Obama said when he accepted his party's presidential nomination in 2008. Four years later, it reads like a prophetic description of his re-election campaign.
See story in washingtonexaminer.com
.
NObama in 2012!!!!!

border joe: Wow...just WOW! First, I hardly think Obama has a "sorry" record, i.e. Lilly Ledbetter Act, Affordable Care Act, repeal of DADT, appt. of two extremely savvy women to SCOTUS, saved the automobile industry, got rid of Bin Laden, etc., etc. Secondly, you took that quote completely out of context. Mr. Obama made that statement about the way the GOP treated him prior to the election...and how they would continue to treat him until he is out of office. Truth be told, Romney/Ryan started the "scare-tactic" campaign well before Mr. Obama countered with some of his own. The difference is, Mr. Obama told the TRUTH...something that is totally foreign in the lives of Romney/Ryan.

Bolo: Is it because you can hardly think? Obama has not done anything for the economic woes facing this country except to increase its debt by 6 Trillion dollars.

I guess you are really proud of a man that has used negativity exclusively during his entire campaign. When you have no record to run on, blame Bush and ruthlessly denigrate you opponent to the point of accusing him of felonious conduct, so you can get yourself reelected and then be accountable to no one. The Hugo Chavez school of dictatorship.

The fact that you people think that romney would actually lower the national debt is what amazes me.

Romney has spent his entire adult life getting rich by spending other peoples money and that is exactly what he would continue to do if elected to office!

I sure hope you don't have to learn that the hard way.

Of, course if y'all did not learn any thing after 8 years of Bush/Cheney's version of Reaganomics on crystal meth, then I don't suppose you will go changing any time soon.

Steve,I voted for Romney/Ryan as did all of my customers who are self employed.I loved driving up to their homes all month seeing the Romney campaign signs. If Obama leads us down the rest of the primrose path, most of these posters, a year from now won't be admitting that they voted for him

just a cleaning lady...wanna buy a bridge?

Obama can NOT run on his sorry record!!

And, yet, in every debate that's precisely what he did. Maybe you were too busy trying to keep up with Romney's lies to notice.

So Romney knows how to make money Obama knows how to spend it hmm lets see do I want to be more concerned with what Romney does with his money or what Obama does with mine

Not exactly close - the President got 28 out of 43 votes cast in those 2 towns, that's about 65%.

Even if the popular vote is close, I don't think the electoral vote will be.

A reversed replay of 2000 maybe?

If Obama loses he can blame it on Hurricane Sandy.This will be another hanging chad election.

Hopefully he can siphon off a few Romney votes. Even half a percent could be a death knell for Romney in some of these really close races.

Yes, that's the main thing Geowil, hee hee; but it would be kinda cool to be able to say that, at one time, you were within 26 votes of the guy who eventually won the Presidency in 2012.

Gary will make things interesting for Obama in Colorado too. I'm just hoping for 5%, which will be a major game changer in 2016.

I watched Gary's final debate against Jill Stein last night. He's far too "right of center" for my likes. He still promotes unbridled corporatism, deregulation and all the things I hate about that mental illness called Conservatism.

RBknows

that is only because most Republicans work for a living and vote AFTER work unlike Dems who like to play all day.

As opposed to those of us who voted at the crack of dawn so as not to miss work or picking up our kids at school? Seems like the freedom to choose who to vote for isn't the only choice you will attempt to suppress, now it's WHEN you can vote as well?

No RB, Dems are smarter than Repubs and signed up for the PEVL (Permanent Early Voter List), and mailed their ballot in over a week ago.

These people voted at midnight. There aren't many third shifts working in this country, and those that are work at a 24 hour facility.

Reading comprehension is fun-demental.

RB, sounding more than a little desperate.

Geowil, your making an irrelevant point. This sample size in two towns is too small. Wait for the results please.

Hey, whiny little RB...is that why the biggest welfare states are the Republican ones? Because all Republicans work and all Democrats are lazy? Your argument sounds a little lazy.

Voting at midnight WOULD be after work for most of us, but that may be difficult for some to comprehend.

Don't forget that they had a 100% turn out of eligible voters, in a mostly white area. Despite the sample size, this shows that the Democrats enjoy more support than the Republicans when everyone who is eligible to vote, can, and does vote. Now you can see why the Republicans tried so hard to suppress voting.

Angry Bird! LOL How can you be so negative this early in the morning!!

Some folks live for misery!

Cant wait for the polls to open!

Please vote for whomever shares your values the closest people!

Gee, and I thought the left was negative.

Idot,

Couldn't wait to vote, voted over 2 weeks ago for Romney-Ryan. I'm tired of business people saying can't get a loan or I don't really know what Obama care is going to cost or how to deal with it and still help my employees.

1. DB Akron - Do you realize that Obama introduced a bill to the House of Representatives to make it easier for small businesses to get loans? Do you know what your wonderful Republicans did? They blocked the bill from even being considered or debated. They have put their own political ambitions above the greater good of American citizens. They have done everything they can to make Obama look bad at the expense of American citizens. Do you know what other bills they blocked? Additional benefits for veterans who were disabled in the line of duty and job training for veterans who have left the military service. A bill to protect the elderly from abuse, and several other bills that would have helped Americans, including the job bill Obama introduced that included the recommendations of his job council for creating jobs in America, were blocked by the Republicans. The Republicans have no respect for anyone, including our brave soldiers and sailors.

Don't bother providing facts to the right wing, as they will likely just ignore them or they will make up a story and get it all twisted around. As far as the statement "I thought the left was negative," you tend to post some of the most negative crap up here, so how do you reconcile that?

g dog: Tim Kaine had his chance with VA and he lost. He will not make it back in tonight!!!

Is the election over in VA before the polls close? Nice wishful think, usaisgreat (but you, not so much).

yea and Obama wanted military members to pay for their own insurance to cover their war injuries what kind of crap is that

nun ya, that is the type of crap lies that Republicans tell. Try researching it yourself rather than just regurgitating what Fox News tells you.

LMFAO !! Best laugh of the morning so far.

Simply delusional there RB, but at least you posted something positive, unlike the screed and slander that most of your fellow R&R supporters sling about.

Excuse me utduck?!?!?! h8tparty above is a perfect example of what liberals have been saying for months. Yes, there is garbage on both sides, but you liberals have really shown yourselves to be terrible people this election. Clean your own house before worrying about others.

LOL!! RB, I haven't laughed that hard in a long time. Thanks, I needed that!

middle (like anybody believes that), I suggest you actually read the posts from the right here. Name calling, childish "Obammy" and "Moochelle" references, etc. Exposes you pretty well.

As far as Massachusetts Democrats for Romney, are they both going out for coffee together? Last I heard, Romney was losing the state he mis-governed in a landslide.

I think this may be the first time a party's candidates haved lost their home states together, with the added bonus of one losing the state he supposedly governed. I think that says more than any post up here can say.

That's beyond delusional...or it's somebody trying out for The Onion.

Same with our household. My 18 year old granddaughter cast her first vote for president, and with her vote added to the other four adult votes, we cast 5 votes for President Obama. Since it is my birthday, there is only one gift that I want, the re-election of our current president.

Thank you for your service and thank your squadron too!!!!!

A service member? Your terminology makes me question the honesty of your statements....just not spoken like a deployed service member. Sorry.

middle, seriously? And how should he speak that would delight your "middle" stance. Yeah, right. I'm a veteran and see nothing wrong...what branch did YOU serve in?

craigf....As a Vet I call BS on you!! You may very well be a Hanoi John Kerry type vet, however the Majority of those of US who actually served (and stayed Sober) find it Treasonous the way the 4 Embassy/Cia/ Seals were left without cover to be murdered in Benghazi. We will not rest until the truth of how and why these Heroes' were murdered is exposed!!

When active duty personal are discharged with loss of benefits, for expressing their dislike of this Administrations treatment of them and their brothers-in-arms. , it is no wonder why Romney has over 500 high raking military commanders( all retired--untouchable by obama) endorsing him. And that BOZOhussen is doing all he can to make the absentee ballots of service Personal not be counted. Just like al Gore did in Florida!!

At the VFW and from reports of my family members still active, it is 3/4 s for Romney!!

Border Joe - Don't Generalize too much! You certainly don't speak for the masses. I am another Vet that voted for our President and couldn't be prouder of the way he has backed our military.

You bringing up Libya again goes to show your hatred for your President and therefore your contempt for the Office of the President the United States. I sure you don't find any fault with our former President that let 3,000 citizen die on 9/11 and over 4,400 of our service members parish during the Iraqi war.

I feel really sorry that you have that much hate in you. I am not saying you don't have a right to question his policies or his decisions, however, to make a political issue out of the deaths of 4 Americans is very sad.

Maybe that's because he's a deployed EDUCATED LIBERAL servicemember...unlike all of your redneck, hillbilly, backwoods, 7th grade drop out REPUBLICAN enlistees.

Border Joe, I have seen tons of your posts, and they seem to border on lunacy. Yeah, keep trying with that Benghaza nonsense; politicizing the deaths of Americans in order to support your ideology? And you need to talk to the Republicans in Congress if you want to whine about veteran's benefits - the way they have crapped on those who serve is on record. Obama tries to help, but the right tries using their own votes as ammo against him.

As a vet, I find people like you that pretend to speak for everybody else to be far beyond sickening. I find it to border on treason.

KMM, it was reported 3rd paragraph down.

Obama 2012

Because Dixville Notch has historically ALWAYS been the first to cast their votes.

Amanda from Richmond

Big SIGH... I am so tired of Romneys camp throwing around the failed restaurant business from Richmond Va stating it is due to the excessive regulations and failed policies of the Obama presidency.

Three identical cut and paste posts on the same page; you must be very tired dear, why don't you go lay down.

So, Steve, do you tend to always be a sanctimonious patronizer, or do you just reserve that nonsense for your posts? Do you call women at work "dear" and, if so, do they enjoy it? I'll bet you think they do.

Deranged lefty... why aren't you crying about Obama's dirty money of 2008 since he trounced McCain in spending on his behalf.

Unions give the dirtiest money one can find... they shake down the taxpayer via their democrat surrogates to get it.

I read your comments and the other angry comments from trailer trash like you and you know, you are little white men so damn afraid how this country has changed and is changing, people like you can't really compete in todays world, someone from another country, somebody who doesn't look like you are or just some strong in your face woman always kicks your ass and you are always second best. Then the rest of you is the same old crap I have seen for 50 years, you may call your self the tea party but you are really just another form of the Klan, sticking your ugly little head up once again. No I am not dependent on the government, I am a 55 year old white man that went back to school in my 30s, now make 6 figures and travel all over the world for business. My kids are hispanic though and if you racist garbage ever give them a hard time, grew up in Montana, love the 2nd ammendment and would love to put one right between your eyes and your but! buddies in the christian taliban

Hey, Sammy - since you obviously do not know how unions work or the difference between money raised by Obama vs. McCain, you should probably avoid making posts about them.

And how do you reconcile "dirtiest money" when that would appear to be from the scum that threaten workers that they will lose their jobs if they vote for Obama? I'm sure that such threats are fine with you, since your ideology would appear to support boosting the weathly while crapping on everyone else. Funny thing is, from the content of your post, I would assume you do NOT belong to the former group.

Hey Dan,

You went back to school in your thirty's. Is that because you were sucking from Democrat tit via jail or welfare????? Probably used your Hispanic baby momma as a way to pay for your education and probably she used you to gain her "citizenship".

BTW: I thought all of you crazy democrats did not like guns and hated the Republicans and NRA????

Hey, usa, good job proving Dan's point.

What Left Wing: I proved he is a racist idiot and He did not prove his point since he was speaking about White Men and I am not a White Man.

It is 10 votes in New Hampshire. I guess you are brilliant enough to call the election after 10 votes.

LOL. My god, people are DUMB!

But if you want me to play the dumb game, I could point to 2008 where Obama won Dixville Notch with 15 of the 21 votes cast. This points to two things... voter enthusiasm is lower for Obama along with the voting. That doesn't bode well for Obama.

LOL. Ole' Craig... wants to call the election after 10 votes.

Sammy Johns - Where did I call the election? All I stated was that the results do not bode well for Romney. I never stated that the election was over. Get over yourself. And next time, try comprehending what you are reading before making ignorant comments.

How does it "not bode well" for Romney when in 2008 the vote at this place was 15 Obama, 7 McCain? Get real, dude. You're full of crap.

Obviously, you have a problem with comprehension. I've explained it twice already. If you do not understand it, then I guess you made a mistake dropping out of elementary school.

Nah, you are a pathetic and an ignorant SOB if you don't understand that a place that voted for Obama 15 to McCain's 7 votes now "tied" bodes ill for OBAMA not Romney.

Claim all you want about the governor race... the truth is that a place that voted overwhelmingly for Obama in 2008 is now "tied" with Romney. Only a brain-dead fool would claim this bodes ill for Romney... pointing to the gubernatorial race is pointless.

Sammy, I think you should avoid pointing the finger at others and using the pejorative "dumb". After that, you should take a reading comprehension class, then take a class on debating skills.

And you had best avoid the personal attacks as well. Not only are they against the code, they only reflect badly on you. Your post at 26.5 looks like it was written by somebody that is unable to express themselves without losing it.
