Bush chief of staff: “We are convinced President Bush has won re-election with at least 286 Electoral College votes” and popular vote.

Details, links, quotes as we get them.

Update, via Fox:

President Bush’s campaign declared victory in the 2004 presidential election at 5:45 a.m. EST Wednesday.
“I want to thank all of you for staying up so late with us and good morning,” White House Chief of Staff Andy Card told haggard supporters at the Ronald Reagan Building in Washington. “We are convinced that President Bush has won re-election with at least 286 Electoral College votes.”

Although Iowa, Nevada and Mexico had not yet made their results officials, Card said the GOP camp was counting those states in its column. Card also declared victory in Ohio, despite claims by John Kerry’s campaign that the fight is not yet over in The Buckeye State.

“This all adds up to a convincing victory,” Card said. “President Bush decided to give Senator Kerry the respect of more time to reflect on the results of this election.”

Bush will make statement “later today,” Card added.

There is also a cartoon that is humorous. Kerry is walking out the door(exit) saying I won the exit polls.
