Facebook Election

Other than myself only one of my friends (who has Facebook) commented on my pseudo-micro-blog status update on Facebook. I'm pretty sure Twitter would have been a better choice, but I haven't been tending to my Twitter page at all...and I was an early Twitter user.

Pay little attention to the happy Sarah Palin, Barack Obama, and Cindy McCain impersonators (it was a fun Halloween party):

McCain: Bourbon and fried chicken
Obama: Maple syrup

Florida is currently making amends for the year 2000...

Ryan DeRamos at 4:49pm November 4

The Carolinas are currently for Obama?

Ryan DeRamos at 4:50pm November 4

OK, South Carolina is strange: Obama 55%, McCain 43% - yet called for McCain?

Ryan DeRamos at 4:56pm November 4

McCain: Coal mines (according to CBS)

Ryan DeRamos at 5:02pm November 4

I use the bathroom (see my Bubba Keg status update) and now it's Obama 102, McCain 34?

Ryan DeRamos at 5:04pm November 4

New England probably goes to Obama, the South - it's a new South, my friends!

Ryan DeRamos at 5:14pm November 4

FOX News just rolled back Obama's score from 81 to 77?

Ryan DeRamos at 5:17pm November 4

No, FOX News' website is just screwy: Now it reads Obama 3, McCain 8 (see my bourbon and maple syrup reference, above).

I'm just glad this whole election crap is almost over. -.-

Ryan DeRamos at 5:29pm November 4

I know. It'll be a relief, although I'll have to find something else to blog about starting tomorrow. :-/

Obama's late grandma's vote counts!

How do they get projected winners with no precincts reporting? Exit polling?

Ryan DeRamos at 6:05pm November 4

Obama 174, McCain 100 (depending on your source). I'm going to eat dinner. BRB.

Ryan DeRamos at 6:56pm November 4

70 to tie, or 70 to win. Dinner was spectacular.

Ryan DeRamos at 7:00pm November 4

Obama just needs California, Oregon, and Washington. I think those states voted for Kerry in 2004, and Gore in 2000.

The Johnny Cash cover artist at McCain's party is nothing compared to Vince Mira (whose vocal cords are possessed by Mr. Cash).

So far, Arizona is throwing McCain under the Straight Talk Express - Obama 55%, McCain 44%.

Ryan DeRamos at 7:16pm November 4

No, it just flopped - McCain 55%, Obama 44%.

Ryan DeRamos at 7:27pm November 4

Whoa, Montana: Obama 50%, McCain 47% (so far).

Ryan DeRamos at 7:36pm November 4

Oprah said that she felt something stir inside her when she saw Obama in 2004. An older lady nearby said, "I'll have what she's having."

Except for Virginia and Florida (so far), the South remains Republican country. Well, except for the NC Senate seat.

Ryan DeRamos at 8:00pm November 4

ABC News says that Obama won.

Ryan DeRamos at 8:04pm November 4

President-elect Barack Obama.
