ABC AFFILIATE REPORTS ELECTION RESULTS IN CALIFORNIA -- WEEK BEFORE THE VOTE!

ABC NEWS affiliate KGTV in San Diego is reporting that Republican George W. Bush has won California with 70% of the vote -- one week before Election Day!

The station hit total embarrassment after the "results" were posted on the station's website, the DRUDGE REPORT can reveal.

With 100% of all precincts reporting, KGTV declared Bush had received 8,201,951 votes to Al Gore's 1,757,561 [15%]. Buchanan had 5% to Nader's 4%.

Sen. Dianne Feinstein won reelection with 5,272,683 votes [45%] easily topping Tom Campbell 4,686,829 [40%].

The station did not return repeated calls for comment late Monday night.

Bush's lead widened almost a point yesterday and the 7 point lead in 6 days will be almost impossible to over take IMO. Even if Gore had Nader's 5 points he would still lose if the vote was cast today.

<On CNBC just now, they said it was too close to call, and all Gore needed was a few states to win the electoral vote, that's why he was in calif.>
They could have said the same about Bush and it would be more accurate. Unfortunately, they don't even see that they are biased.
