American Election

[Jordy]

Cast your vote in the ballot box above, the results will be revealed after midnight.

[alexxxxx]

why hide the results?

[camera]

obama x

[GommeInc]

why hide the results?
I think you can drag/highlight your mouse over the results to see them :P

[mangle]

I'd vote for Obama :)

[LeeroyJenkins]

wth?!

where are the third party candidates?

[RedStratocas]

i already voted for obama. absentee ballots aren't as fun as a voting both though :/

[FlyingJesus]

What about if people want to vote Liberal and be the laughing stock of the country/world? Not that I would, I'm not the right sort of liberal to like people like them. Dunno who I would vote though tbh, McCain isn't great and admitted he doesn't know as much about economy (kinda a big issue atm...) but Obama doesn't strike me as much either, he's a bit of a JFK character I think (young, in good physical shape and likely to get assassinated) and no idea what Biden's like - we've seen nothing of him really.

[Ezzie.]

Tom ^^^

Biden is awesome. That is all I need to say, watch his debates with Palin, he really did tear down anything she said.

[FlyingJesus]

Well yeah she's a woman

edit: Also Obama gets my vote because he'll probably get killed and leave Biden in charge, and there's a really good rapper called Joe Budden which sounds the same I just realised

I think that's the most educated thing I've heard all day :P

Neither Obama nor McCain are good candidates.. they both suck..

Both candidates are just faces of their party.. I wish someone down the middle would run.. like Joe Lieberman.. but think about the ads about him =\


Tom ^^^

Biden didn't tear down anything Palin said, it was the other way around LOL.

She shot down anything he said.. with her most casual line.. "Now Joe.. we both know that's not true.."

He couldn't help but to laugh and smile.. he knows how smart she really is.. he even admitted how good of a candidate she is.

I'm voting for her when she runs in 2012 ^_^.

[Ezzie.]

Dentafrice.. you're .. absolutely kidding right?
She was stuttering at the end, she never answered a single question, she just diverted from the question itself. Rewatch the debates.

[GommeInc]

Dentafrice.. you're .. absolutely kidding right?
She was stuttering at the end, she never answered a single question, she just diverted from the question itself. Rewatch the debates.
Didn't she also fail to answer which newspapers she read about the elections, and just kept answering "all of them?" If she can't take the pressure of answering questions as simple as that, and just giving a general answer of "all of them," then she does seem pretty lousy. She pretty much just plays with the competition and gets the audience on her side, she's pretty crap at actually destroying the competition.

[FlyingJesus]

Also in that prank call the guy named a Canadian folk singer as the Prime Minister and she said he was doing a great job or something like that

[Ezzie.]

Nah the canadian comedian was posing as Sarkhozy, but the rest, yeap. She thought it was him, said he was doing a great job and laughed or agreed when he mentioned moose hunting from helicopters ;D

[Jordy]

Nah the canadian comedian was posing as Sarkhozy, but the rest, yeap. She thought it was him, said he was doing a great job and laughed or agreed when he mentioned moose hunting from helicopters ;DOne of her PAs/Agents told her it was Sarkozy so she had no reason to think otherwise.

The poll is kept hidden until exactly midnight.

Part of the conversation he named Stef Carse as the Prime Minister of Canada, who is actually a singer :P

Dont matter.
in 4 years...
Obama = assassinated
McCain = dead from old age
So your really voting for Palin or Biden in this election;
btw
i would vote for mccain becuase the majority of black people are only voting for obama becuase he is black and they think that he will do nothing but help blacks which is completely wrong.
they dont know one thing hell do if elected/.

Obama-assasinated? What makes you assume that, granted it is possible, there is assasination attempts on most presidents.
As for the second point, is your point that you're voting for Mccain because Obama's black or what? :S

1 - As long as the KKK is there, theres a good chance he will get assassinated.
Also, theres already been a group of skinhead nazis that have been arrested becuase they were going to assassinate Obama and decapitate 88 other blacks.
2 - I'm not old enough to vote, I dont care who wins tbh, but I'm leaning toward McCain just becuase people are voting for Obama not for his policies, but becuase he is racist.
And in my school, if you dont like Obama than some people think that your racist, and I'm sure its like that in other places too.

btw my school -
60+% black
40-% white

[alexxxxx]

lol... Dentafrice... You have to see through Palin, she is an absolutley awful candidate. Infact, I'd say that's why McCain is down in the polls. She's a face. But she's awful at talking to the media and you have to tell that phone call was definatley NOT Sarcozy lol.

biden is quite well known. he was actually the front-runner for the democratic party in a presidential election in the 80's. so people havent really been questioning him very much, he's been around for years.

1) the kkk is barely even functioning any more. it's mostly 70 year olds with nothing to do. there are people who DESPISE george bush for his war actions, but he hasn't been assassinated yet, has he?
2) what the hell does that mean? people vote for obama because obama is racist? i'd like to see you prove that one.

and no, you're wrong and you don't really know what you're talking about. at all. maybe if you actually got some examples and facts, you'd have a point.

5,5 you're making no sense.. but okay :S

Those skin heads were a bunch of idiots who didn't even have the brains to rob the guns from the store, let alone kill obama THEN kill 88 other black skinned people.. you get loons everywhere.

Well yeah she's a woman

edit: Also Obama gets my vote because he'll probably get killed and leave Biden in charge, and there's a really good rapper called Joe Budden which sounds the same I just realised

I see what you did there lol.


I voteded Obama. Cos he is tha fyoocha prez of US and current Prez of AWESOMEVILLE.

[Hazza]

Obama..

[RedStratocas]

that was a typo, i meant to say becuase of obamas race.

there are far more people who are voting for john mccain because he's the white candidate than there are people voting for barrack because he's the black candidate.

[Abbie.]

ones too left wing

ones too right wing


i really dont care, i live here not there. lol

[Slowpoke]

I think you can drag/highlight your mouse over the results to see them :P

I can see them and I'll tell you now that that theory is rather inaccurate.

[Ezzie.]

Obama's more right wing than our conservatives in England.

[Ajthedragon]

Obama ftw!

i dont live in england tho.....


but in all honesty, i dont care, america are up their own arses anyway thinking they rule the world

[Technologic]

i'd love to see what the polls would say if obama was white

[alexxxxx]

i dont live in england tho.....


but in all honesty, i dont care, america are up their own arses anyway thinking they rule the world

:)

united kingdom then.

technologic, if obama was white, he'd have more votes. there's a lot more people who will vot for mccain because he's white than obama because he's black.

[RedStratocas]

but in all honesty, i dont care, america are up their own arses anyway thinking they rule the world

i lol @ ignorant people.

Obama, lots of people on xbox have their clan tags as [OBMA]

Can you explain how I dont make sense.


there are far more people who are voting for john mccain because he's the white candidate than there are people voting for barrack because he's the black candidate.Thats wrong. Just about every black person in my school has a vote Obama shirt. I've asked a few, what are Obamas policies. And they say, idk?!

So yeah more black people vote for Obama cause hes black than white people vote for McCain cause hes white.

Either way, in my opinion, your voting for the vice presidents becuase in all honsty I dont think either will live through there 4 year term.

So its really white v white
and people that vote b.c of race are dumb b/c either way theres gonna be white people in office.

One of those times where the media covers americans saying 'we love obama' everyone suddenly thinks hes going to win but McCain just snipes it with just a few high points states. McCain doesn't bother me... Its his running mate that makes me think its a bad idea

[Ostinato]

Yeh McCain could still steal it tbh.

There is still a lot of undecided voters - many of which will just vote for the comfortable republican they are used to.

FOX is going with 3 - 13
CNBC said McCain is leading 2 to 1 although they have yet to say (on the channel) the number of seats.

Still nothing from BBC, ABC or CNN as far as I can see.

Although I don't trust the results given by the conservative media it does seem likely that McCain gets the 10 seats in Arizona (his home state) as they have only voted Democrat once since 1952.

Wow having seen how many seats each state has, I think Obama has it. The smaller east coast states which Obama will definitely get have the same amount of chairs as a lot of large central/southern states that McCain will win, so although McCain's landmass looks bigger, Obama looks set to get the numbers. Especially with so few real swing states.

Obama gets New Mexico..

[PaulMacC]

Has Obama basically won now?

[Sammeth.]

Has Obama basically won now?
If he gets Florida then its pretty much confirmed, if of course California goes blue (which no doubt it will)

Texas to McCain

[Ezzie.]

PaulMacC- He's won it yes, I don't think Obama even needs Florida, as long as he gets California which is basically guaranteed.

So yeah he's won

Lets party! :D

[HotelUser]

Has Obama basically won now?

He basically won prior to any voting taking place:P.

Texas goes to McCain :o!

Florida and North Carolina too close to call :(

[DrLacero]

As long as Obama gets California, McCain can get every other state and he still couldn't win. On this basis I am going to bed, when I awake Obama will have won!
