Election day and cell phones
Published November 02, 2004
long story short... I feel confident and hopeful that Senator Kerry will win today. I do mean today. I hope to know who the president will be before I go to bed.
So do vote today. Know that your vote counts. Here is why: if you are a Dem, let's show those bastards a true mandate from the people for change. I am talking about a Kerry in a Landslide. If you are a Repub, your dude is going to lose big time if you don't get out there and vote. I am hoping that your dude is going to lose big time regardless, but only your vote can make otherwise happen. One other thing if you are a Repub, you really need to be out there early intimidating blacks and harassing other minorities. No matter what or who, I don't want to spend the next 3 months arguing and listening to lawsuits and all that jibba jabba. We have ALL had too much of this election. Vote today and let's get it behind us. One last thing, have fun standing in line in the freezing cold for Democracy, chumps... I voted weeks ago.

Interesting idea, Lono. I've seen people say the cell phone market is just the affluent. But, some people with low incomes actually prefer cell phones. (And, sometimes their home phone companies help them make that decision by turning their phones off.) I await seeing how close projections match reality.
Bryan, it is okay to have projections. But, we should not put too much faith in them. The margin of error is too significant in a race this close.
It feels good to see information backing an opinion, Lono - you must be a leftie :-)
One minor factoid: the stats statement was made by Benjamin Disraeli, mentioned by Mark Twain.

See, I don't want to know tonight because news organizations are going to rush to judgement. I mean, we might have 10,000 military ballots from overseas. Don't theirs count? If this election IS as close as they say, then every vote does count, and that includes military.
I would rather them take their time over the next week and get an accurate number and not some incident where news organizations jump to their conclusion.
