Actually, pick either one and use the tab above the image to switch to the other.

Early results from Indiana coming in. I don't really think McCain will lose this state, but that it's even close... does not bode well for McCain. Some of these counties are as conservative as you can possibly imagine - rural, mostly farming, strongly religious, high gun ownership - and they're 50/50 or favoring Obama.

And, more succinctly, he's outperforming Kerry by as much as 15%.

Yikes.

Listening to NPR, and it sounds like Obama is winning rural Virginia even. This election might be over by about 6pm.

I'm using Yahoo's map and it has McCain up by double digits in VA, but with only 6% reporting. That may not seem like much, but they called Vermont for Obama with 0% reporting. That always seems odd to me.

Seems like the big 4 networks are racing to see who can call states the soonest after voting closes (CBS is "winning").

Yahoo doesn't seem to say how they are calling states. CNN says they use exit polls -- did no one learn their lesson with exit polls last time?
