Yeah, it will be very close. Right now, however, my source is telling me that Bush is in the lead in both Flordia and Ohio, which is 47 electoral votes. If he takes both is all but over for Kerry.
Kerry, on the other hand, will take Illonois and California. That's a lot of electoral votes, but he'll need more than just those two at the point he's at right now. He'll need a lot of these swing states.
Tough, close race. I don't have a problem with either of these guys winning myself.

It's hard to go against history, but we're talking about a race closer than any other ever. So really, this could be the first one to go against Ohio, no matter who wins Ohio.

I think the trend will continue. It is a close race, but I still think Bush will win.

TranceSpeeder, is that right about Ohio? I thought that it was that no Republican has ever won the presidency without winning Ohio?

Go Bush! I was # 494 around 11am in my small southern town.
www.yahoo.com home page shows Ohio underlined in red.

 @ Spiral.
If Bush takes the states he's winning right now, he'll win.

It's looking tough for him, I'd say. Really, it's still too close to call right now though.

Holy cow, New Hampshire is crazy right now. It's pretty much split right down the middle. Hard to say which way that one will go.
Flordia just went to Bush.
237-199 I believe is the current count.
Edit:
Yahoo projects Bush wins it with 284 electoral votes.
