Default Obama wins Georgia

1,994,990 people have already voted in Georgia. In 2004 there were only 3,301,875 voters in total in Georgia. 35% of the voters so far are African Americans even though the polls have been assuming they would make up 25% of the electorate. Considering the last 11 polls in Georgia have had McCain up by 7 points or less the math is not good for the Republicans. Georgia will go blue tomorrow.

Laugh it up, the numbers don't add up. 2 million vote early and there are only 2.9 million votes reported with 92 percent of the precints voting? And the exit polls (which were pretty accurate today) show McCain winning 50-48. Let's see when the final tally comes in and see if it is so laughable.

What's the population like in the other 8% of the precincts?

I have no clue, the whole point is it seems unlikely to me that under 1 million voted in Georgia today. There may be a crapload of votes still coming in the mail or that haven't been counted. McCain will probably still win, but it will be closer to the 50-48 margin the exit polls showed than by the early projections in the state.

I have no clue how likely or unlikely that is to be honest and I won't pretend that I know how many actually voted today in Georgia. All I am saying is that you would think the population percentage in those 7 or 8% of the precincts that haven't reported yet would matter some (especially if they are in Atlanta.)

I was laughing more at you putting the cart before the horse. That's all.
