125 MILLION VOTED 105 MILLION WERE COUNTED
Where are the extra 20 million votes? Why are we not prepared for this? Are we Dems just fucking idiots?

2. They're not there
Turnout's approximately 115,000,000. Higher turnout than usual but nowhere close to the 125,000,000 we were banking on. And HUGE turnout among evangelicals.

4. Where are you getting 125 million VOTED?
Current total is 113.5 million at 99% which would project to 114.6 million at 100%.

7. evidence? - means someone goes through basic poll data sign in sheets
and that is not going to happen.

If evidence means smart folks took the early vote - and long lines - and past voting - and growth of registrations - and said a low of 115 and a high of 130 - try google!

:-)

8. In most democratic countries...
this would be a poor turnout.

115 voters among 285 million people. At least 200 million must be eligible to vote. That would only be a 57% turn-out for the most important election so fat in this millenium.

Good luck re-grouping!
