I inadvertently posted this to wrong person. Try again. From: MJ To: Ground Zero What do you think about the electoral votes and popular vote? As people on this thread know I am a Bush supporter----however I tried to be dispasSionate about the electoral votes and popular vote when I figured them at 2 a.m. this morning. There is a thread on SI that a few of us posted our predictions on. This is what I posted. Will be interesting to see how close I and others came to the final results. _________________________________________________________ The one defection was the electoral vote from W. Va.---one of the Republican electors said he might abstain or give his vote to Kerry. W.Va. has been declared for Bush. From: MJ 11/2/2004 2:17:19 AM Electoral Votes: Bush wins with------- Bush 286 -1 electoral defection = 285 firm Kerry 253 + 1 Weak count = 254 weak ( with possible 21 of these going to Bush) If these 21 go to Bush then it is: Bush--------307 Kerry ------232 _______________________________________________ Popular Vote: Bush 53% Kerry 46% Nader .05% Not voting .05% Senate: Republicans No losses Democrats No gains House: Republicans 1 gain Democrats 1 loss
