I know none had closed. I was asking to find out if there might be something better than what I linked to, which is showing results on a map as they come in.
So... Politico seems to have called Kentucky as soon as they closed, with 12% reporting, and Vermont with 0%(!) reporting.
Waiting to see Maine go with a 3-1 split and tie the election.

That comes from AP. While it differs somewhat from the Politico map, they're still doing things like, for example, calling Maryland with 0.1% reporting.
They've each got the same number of electoral votes called for each (64-40 now), but from different places... no, they match now 64-51. No, they un-called OK, but added 16 (GA, light tint?) to Romney. Heh.
May as well wait for someone who cares about their reputation.

With hotties like Robin Meade and Soledad O'Brien, I figured that CNN would be a good channel to watch for the news. Unfortunately, the only picture I saw was a map with a lot of blue and red on it, so I got bored and turned off the tv.

Only 4% of California has reported and news sites are already saying Obama won the state.
That doesn't make any goddamn sense. Wait until 50, 60% of the votes have been counted, not 4%.

Does anyone remember Soledad O'Brien being on a kids show in the late '80s or early '90s? I remember her doing a news segment. It was either "science news" or else the whole show was science themed, but I don't remember much else about it.
Anyhow, that's what I think of when I hear her name. It seems kind of weird to me that she's a real reporter now.

What you missed: After billions spent, Congress and the Oval Office are pretty much unchanged.

We changed from elections to electrons back there. The stuff I missed happened last week, not this: I've found my episodes of Arrow and Supernatural, need to investigate South Park (oh wait, they'd rerun it this week if it existed, right?), then move on to Thursday.

I remember watching her on THE SITE around 1997 or so, but that's it.
