Live Election Tracker
As the first exit polls start trickling in, readers can keep track of the live action with the following handy maps, selected from various websites. As a reminder, exit polls are about as predictable as any other polling 'data point' based on +/-4% error margin sampling, which in turn is virtually every data point used to feed Garbage In, Garbage Out "predictors", "simulators" and other "black boxes" which forecast the future with triple digit "accuracy." Simply said, in an election in which the margin of difference in the key electoral states (not to mention the popular vote) is far narrower than the error rate, take everything you have heard about the final outcome and burn it, or sell it and buy several Stat 101 credits at the local community college.

Vote Blue Cancer / Vote Red Cancer -- would you like testicular cancer or prostate cancer? want your balls to fall off or your asshole to fall out? Fixing it clearly isn't an option when voting.

Bernanke is the fucking President, what's everybody getting all hot and bothered about?
I say replace the voting booths with rock-em sock-em robots. You square-off against another voter. The vote goes to the red or blue team.
Let the randomness of the universe decide. At least you had a little fun for your trouble.
Regardless as to which Deeply Captured Candidate (by the very same groups/people as they like to hedge their bets) wins, I toast The Bernank, who will still be chugging along with electronic printer equivalent always in tow, with the following musical tribute:

Strangely, all of my brain dead Republican friends and family voted today too. Looks like the dead will win one way or another. The zombie apocalypse is right here, right now.
Well, looks like 2 brain dead zombies (so far) have voted me down to prove my point. Gotta love entrenched righties for their predictability. They're zombies and don't even know it.
Correction, 3 brain dead voted you down. Since two others voted you up that makesa total of 6 brain dead idiots which includes you. Can you guess which one of the 4 thumbs down voters was particularly alert and voted for Gary Johnson. There are still too many anesthetized hypnotized socialized propagandized brainwashed and deluded citizens to make a difference.
Thanks to news and information web sites like ZeoroHedge more people have begun to wake up and shake others. There is a big change coming that may be as important and disruptive as the machine age was. The age of technology is changing the entire paradigm of the late 19th and 20th centuries.
Three cheers for ZeroHedge"
I see you have it all figured out, except the part of excluding yourself as an idiot of course. You apparently assumed I voted for the Dem candidate since I made fun of the Rethug supporters. You get an idiot nomination for your black or white, either or thinking, even though you seem to think you're so beyond it. You voted Libertarian...how predictable from your attitude.
You may be right about the technology driven changes coming. We will see. We may also see changes due to the end of cheap energy, climate change and ecosystem collapses. Not all of these are easily overcome with technological fixes, Yeah, I know peak oil, climate change and ecosystem collapse goes against the prevailing conservative and libertarian dogmas, but reality does not care about belief systems. We will see.
Let the fraud commence.

The outcome of the election comes down to a permanent move far away from the cities into the countryside or permanent residency in Latin America. I anxiously await our fate!
I'm hoping for a 5-point plus win for Obama, so there can be absolutely no doubt whatsoever in anyone's mind what the outcome is of his policies. The #1 enemy of prosperity in the western world is not socialism, it's ignorance.
Noble sentiment but I know individuals who, if sitting on tires and warming their hands over a burning barrel after a Obama 2nd term, would blame Bush for their plight. It's really a mantra for some now. I've pointed out many alternative causes rehashed exhaustively here to no avail. Perhaps some just need to pee on the electric fence to figure it out. Though, for some, that wouldn't even work.
Miffed:-)
I know of a few as well, they're called "Democrats".
Oh man, JUST saw a CNBC correspondent fudge a paraphrase of Obama supporters, "We're sticking with Carte---, er I mean, we're sticking with Obama..."
Wow, yet ANOTHER Freudian slip.
It's the classic cure to your kid smoking cigarettes. "So you like socialism, do you? Well I'm going to sit here while you smoke a whole 8 YEARS of socialism."
Socialism and ignorance go together. Socialism counts on ignorance and people wanting free stuff.
Wtf is taking OH to count? One for Romney, two for fuckhead.....
Will the Mitt hair hold up the SP? They are found liable for misleading investors...Says australian courts. Stay strong mitt hair..stay strong. LOL .... what a tool they both are.
Tonight my vote goes to bourbon. You're always a winner to me!
Last and certainly least, CNN. Classic!
Fox asks:
"The Verdict:"
I say:
"Guilty as charged!"
Congrats America, you elected a gun grabbing, progressive, civil liberties destroying, economic dunce, but at least Harvard grad just like you voted for!
We still have no proof he is a Harvard grad or Columbia grad or any other grad since we are forbidden to see his transcripts. In fact I have never seen proof he is a high school grad, although that would be easier to prove even though those grades are probably off limits, too.
Except he had described both candidates.
Agreed, but the lack of school attendance and academic records, classmates, etc., only applies to Obama. He's like a phantom -- cropped up out of nowhere with a bio that cannot be verified.
We don't have a fucking clue about anything in this guy's background.
The "I's" have it.
Gooo!!!! Ron Paul !!!! You have my vote.
Congrats, you just gave Obama another four years.
Both candidates represent Fascist interests and not those of the people they are attempting to bullshit into voting for them. Suck on that reality.
Mmmmmm. Tastes like skittle shat from a unicorn.
Skattles.
As opposed to?
I tell you, it kinda warms my heart when I see that someone still thinks the old Blue-vs-Red thing is in play. Reminds of the good old days. You know, before Nixon.
I still can't believe they railroaded that fine man.
<sarc>
That fine man and his tapes.
Think Big Nixon
Tape transcripts (1971)
Nixon: I still think we ought to take the North Vietnamese dikes out now. Will that drown people?
Kissinger: About two hundred thousand people.
Nixon: No, no, no, I'd rather use the nuclear bomb. Have you got that, Henry?
Kissinger: That, I think, would just be too much.
Nixon: The nuclear bomb, does that bother you?...I just want you to think big, Henry, for Christsakes.
[edit] Tape transcripts (1971)
I have the greatest affection for them [Negroes] but I know they're not going to make it for 500 years. They aren't. You know it, too. The Mexicans are a different cup of tea.
Some musician should set that to rap:
Yo homiez, think'n big with the rhymes, Dicky Nixon gonna nuke him some crimes. Humanity baby, got yo white meat here. Crime me up nigga, they jus slants we hear. Cuz homiez in North Nam, 200 kilo, they be swim'n in hot sewer from that nuk-klee-ah trigger. Pimp that Hank Kissy, nigga some cray. Dat shit don't trouble you, not when you say -- bitch we winning. Not when you say winning. Nigga'z not when you say winning. We be winning now fag homiez. Winning with dat nuk-klee-ah pimp hand. Word.

"Reminds of the good old days. You know, before Nixon."
You gotta love the old boomers.
Nixon was honorable, at least he fucking resigned. Clinton, Bush, and Obama have all done far worse and just ignore it and go on like nothing happened. We're all fucked...
He was going to be impeached. He HAD to resign.
He was then pardoned by good ole Gerry Ford.
Congrats, you just gave Obama another four years.
Obama: ObamaCare, Gun Control, Currency Controls, More War (Libya, Yemen, Syria), No Jail for WallSt Fraud, Socialist
Mittens: RomneyCare, Gun Control, Currency Controls, More War (Iran), No Jail for WallSt Fraud, Closet Socialist
Can you point out how you expect to be better off with Mittens? As I see, no matter who wins, American Workers Lose. Its a Tails I win, Head you Lose propsition!
If Obama wins, go grab a government job
if Mitt wins, learn to fire people and you'll get a job
IDIOT, Romney is not for Gun Control, Currency Controls, or no jail for fraud street. And how the fuck do you consider him a socialist when compared to Obama...
"Romney is not for Gun Control, Currency Controls, or no jail for fraud street. And how the fuck do you consider him a socialist when compared to Obama..."
'Fraid not. You are the idiot. Go look up Mittens voting record as Gov of MA. Ban on Assault Rifles and more restrictions on Gun Purchases. No way Mittens would push for Wall Street prosecution. As for Currency Controls Mittens wants tarrifs, and that is going to cause currency controls. Also note the Mittens Flip-flopped on getting rid or Bernanke. Mittens wants to keep rates low now.
Mittens, if he won, would be another Mike Bloomberg. Socialist disguised as a GOP candidate.
Looks like Obama going to take. Mittens is losing FL and OH.
On gun control, Romney will say and do whatever keeps him in office. With just one issue, he has proved he has no principles.
"On gun control, Romney will say and do whatever keeps him in office"
What he says during campaigning is virtually meaningless. Its his past record that matters!

I voted for Johnson since Paul is no longer a candidate.
When is the election and who is running?
You have been misinformed. It's a selection and no, no one is actually running.
When? Some time during the last 6 months
Who? Myppet A vs. Myppet B
And most important....why isnt Dancing with the Stars on tonight? It was an elimination show!
The last Candidate that was running was Bill Clinton. Running after female interns and running away from Hillary!
Drudge pretty much calling it for BHO already
I never thought Americans would ever vote for the biggest spending socialist loser in history not to mention liar with his "promises, promises, promises" first election ....epic historical sized mega-bill, fuck all to show for it and zero Hope & Change delivered too
but they will
democracy really is only for total dupes (sheeple)
the lights are on but nobodies home
pass the sick bag
In 2008 they were duped by the MSM. Ain't gonna happen in 2012, Obama is out of promises. BTW- you can't believe the exit polls, people lie to them because of political correctness. In this election, exit polling is even worse because of the "bradley effect".
And the Hope & Change voters on my FB page have put up different video clips to justify their votes. ugh. Also a few comments from the Romney voters, but not near as many. A bunch of partisan bullshit that puts us in a running sprint to a third world nation status with the bankstas owning it all. You win Lloyd, you evil POS.
"...I never thought Americans would ever vote for the biggest spending socialist loser in history..."
Reminds me of one of my favorite quotes; "The sound of socialism is applause"
the guy is a weasel same as the other weasel
the sound of socialism is bankruptcy
Can't find your quote, who said it?
I dont remember where I heard it and I cant find it either.
The closest I can find right now is this.
""So this is how liberty dies—to thunderous applause."
From a Star Wars movie of all places.
I never thought Americans would ever vote for the biggest spending socialist loser in history not to mention liar with his "promises, promises, promises" first election ....epic historical sized mega-bill, fuck all to show for it and zero Hope & Change delivered too
Worse n that, Bill CLITTON, stumping for Bammy, and saying Do you want a President who LIES to you about everything???.
AMAZING BALLS......................
Impeached for lies, and sexual escapades, and is a PATHOLOGICAL LIAR.
And this is the BEST "TruthTeller" they can stump for the second biggest liar?.
The thing about Clinton is: the people who like him LOVE him.
He's the Dem version of Reagan.
I'm with you Zero Govt. I'm a bit astonished.
I remember 4 years ago the day after the election, I was sitting in a rinky-dink airport in southern Portugal on The Algarve waiting for my return flight home, and 2 huge black ladies were sitting next to me with t-shirts with Obama's face on it, waving Obama/Biden flags, and wearing Obama hats. I said to myself "it's going to be a long fucking 4 years".
On the bright side, it's not going to be a long fucking 4 more years. My plan to move back to SE Asia with my family is on track and looking better than ever. Fuck all of you stupid sheeple that voted for this asswipe; you're not going to live off of my middle-class back much longer.
Drudge is calling Romney. Drudge is on CIA payroll.
CNN gets worse every day. Van Jones will probably have his own show soon.
For those that prefer a "Big Board" kind of display that is easy on the eyes, try this one over at NPR:

EDIT: Tyler updated original post with Google link.
Romney will win if his hair is perfectly combed, otherwise it is Obama's for the taking.
But I thought it was his gutchies that were magic.
VOTE FOR PEDRO!
Pedro lacks political experience.
Wasn't he a community organizer?
Skills:
He is really good at hooking up with chicks.
He had a rad bike, too, got some boss air going off those jumps.
"find the appropriate echo chamber"
LOL, +1 for Tyler and to my fellow Tin Hatted Nutters on Make Believe Election Day
... election not of who's better but who is less worse ... how did it come to this?
because you have a monopoly system, a bottleneck that narrows power/everything into a small office which is then easily targeted and corrupted by The Parasite Club
the best systems (nature, internet, a free market etc) spread decision making across thousands or millions of individuals, not narrowed to a handful
it's easy to corrupt 10 people in 1 office, close to impossible to corrupt 10 million
Govt is the problem, the solution is a free people
It came to this because this is exactly how you destroy participatory democracy.

They can always edit the tape tomorrow.
I genuinely don't how know anyone is mentally or physically capable of withstanding the torture that any of the Lame Stream Media dish out, whether MSNBSC, FAUX, CNN (CronyCapitalismNetwork), cnBSc, aBSc, cBsc or nBSbc.
The United States has by far the worst media out of any nation that's remotely deemed developed, and even many nations that developing.
It's not that the media elsewhere is so good, it's that the media in the U.S. is so horrendous on a scale of lowly relativeness.
Check these folks: http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/audioconsole/?stream=ennws
You can hear someone sipping tea when he thinks the mic is off. I say old man, getting a bit late, wot?

2142EST Officially, Romney just took http://www.racineco.com/
Romney
Obama
Vote here.
None of the above.
It's too bad you don't have that choice.
As soon as I tried to write in Ron Paul, the ink turned invisible.
What'll they think of next?
<-- lessor of two evils

Um. No.
Wait wait--do you mean make a PREDICTION or pick a preferred candidate?

So I take it everyone want's socialism? Or stolen election? Which is it? Sad day for America.
can we take pol here, who vote for who? i just did for Gary Jonson, just to protest the other 2 morons.
I voted for Johnson, but I live in Massachusetts...so it don't matter.
+1
Stein. I think. My wife casts my mail-in ballot for me weeks ahead and I usually don't follow up with her.
Because you know all this is so all-fired fucking important.
I voted Gary in Nc
Seems theBLACK PANTHERS are up to '08 tricks again in Philly.
Seems another group is joining them, to make sure ther is NO INTIMIDATION this trip.
Navy Seals.......Nuff said.
Seals versus panthers on dry land? That could be interesting. For the panthers.
exit polls are meaningless
The Hell? Shows what you know. Out here in Cali, we hang breathless on shit like that. Nobody here votes until late in the day and before we do we hit CNN and Reuters for the exits, get drunk enough to drive, and only then go vote. If done correctly you either 1) don't remember any part of the process so need never accept responsibility, or B) actually never arrive at the poll but instead go to the casino and blow your mortgage payment playing dice. Fuck yeah.
Yeah we're all about civic fucking responsibility out in Cali, bitchez.
At least we are spared the candidates running around the state mucking up traffic. One benefit of the race being called before our polls close.
What casino are you playing dice at? Only card games and slots at any Indian casino I've been to in CA
In fact I never frequent the casinos myself so I don't know what games they actually offer. When I wrote the above I was actually channeling the scene in "Mars Attacks!" where Danny DeVito is playing craps in Las Vegas while everyone else is watching the ballroom TV live announcing the Martian invasion of Earth. So happy, so clueless, so dead.
The day just has that kind of feel to it, know what I mean?
Drudge headline flashing red.
Shit just got real.
Oh yeah when the media go code red, is some serious shit.
I bet he charges advertisers double today. That's how serious it is.
a vote for obama or romney is a vote for the siamese twin hellbeast spawn of the devil. no matter who wins america loses.
