If Bush wins only Alaska and Ohio it ends up tied. That result puts him in but might lead to more attacks (however unfounded) on his "legitimacy". Would be good to see the winner get a majority of both the electoral and popular vote this time.

EDIT: Bush lead appears to be widening in New Mexico, which along with Ohio would give Bush a clear majority.

With 83% of the precincts reporting. Ohio is going for Bush. It doesn't look like it's going to be as close as the MSM hopes in Ohio.
