9. Yep. I had the same 378 as him, and missed Missouri and Montana, too.
He's been solid the whole season.

11. wow! well, both of those were amazingly close. I personally thought
we might lose OH - especially after they said it was static as far as population and new
growth of voters - the campaign thought they had much better chances in FL.

Kudos to you!

26. Thank you, Laura and everyone! :)
Elections come and go, but friendships are to be cherished :D

Needed a couple days to unplug, so my apologies for not catching this thread earlier.

We get to live in a country that elects amazing people like Barack Obama as President!
