Bush is leading in OR and WI and has probably won NV(though msnbc hasn't called it yet). If Bush wins OR and WI and NV and IA, he doesn't need FL.

FL detailed analysis: Bush is leading by a little over 100,000 votes in FL with 86 % precincts in. For Gore to win, he would need approximately 56.6% of the remaining vote in FL. Where is that vote located??????

Hi K! Closest election in 40 years. My guess...

Bush takes: OR (7) and NV (4) = +11
Gore takes: WI (11) and IA (7) = +18

Thus sub-totals:
Bush: 253
Gore: 260

Therefore it all comes down to Florida (25).

MY FINAL TOTALS:

Bush: 278
Gore: 260

or........................

Bush: 253
Gore: 285

Does it get any better than this? <g>
