OFFICIAL AOSHQDD ELECTION NIGHT RETURNS
— CAC

Obama Wins.
I'm getting drunk and enjoying my hot wife.
It stops the sobbing.


Ace of Spades HQ Decision Desk is live.

President, House and Senate races are being tracked all through the night.

This should be your go-to source for calls, hopefully ahead of the traditional media outlets, using my team of volunteers covering every state.

Follow @AOSHQDDPREZ @AOSHQDDHOUSE @AOSHQSEN for interesting developments too throughout the night.

Much much moar below the fold
How calls will work:
Once I am confident a state will break one way or another, either from exit poll data and initial returns or the raw data trickling in, the state will be CALLED.
Called states in the Senate and President race will be colored in solid, and their electoral votes will then be allocated to the winner.

What to watch out for:
Two big things.
Ohio's early vote and absentees are going to go online first, per the Secretary of State. Since this bloc favors Obama tremendously, don't croak if Obama comes out of the gate in the Buckeye with a large lead. Truth be told, Strickland seemed to be putting on a fight in 2010, but lost narrowly after all the exurban and rural votes came in.

That brings me to the second thing, Pennsylvania. If the state goes to Romney, it won't be obvious for a very long time. In 2010, Toomey trailed for much of the evening as the Philadelphia and Allegheny numbers flooded in, only to be eaten away by the central and suburban county votes. The same is likely to happen tonight as well.

An enormous shout-out to the one hundred volunteers humming away behind the scenes and compiling data, to Luis (@projectiondesk) and Joel (@ningrim) for covering and calling Senate and House races, to Ace for giving me the opportunity to conduct this grand experiment, and to Mrs. CAC who is fetching me coffee, Jameson and helping me check and call states throughout the evening. Give some love to John Ekdahl as well, the mastermind of the map and site design, without whom I'd be left uploading goofy maps to tinypic.

80 Kentucky update - per the Lexington Herald Leader:
Romney - 63%
O - 32%
as of 6:20 E.T.
Too many of us bitter clingers and all of EKY full of coal miners, many out of work. State went in '08 for McCain, same goes this time around for Romney

Most interesting race is House Race - District 6
Chandler (D) vs Barr (R)
Chandler held on last election against Barr by less than 700 votes
Currently Herald Leader is reporting Barr leading 52% to 45% but it is still way too early on this race

101 Just got back from working my polling place. The turnout has been heavy. I also noticed at large percentage of people dropping off their absentee ballots in person. So I guess they aren't really early voters. I'm in deep blue CA but noticed that R's and independents are showing up in larger numbers (I get to see everyone's affiliation), at least for my precinct. As and added bonus, Misty May Treanor and her Dodger catcher husband showed up to vote. I had no idea they lived a block away.

115 What Toomey and the red precincts in PA figure out is they need to hold their vote totals back until Philly and Pittsburgh are in.  That way they don't know how many extra votes to "find".

They will look at Philly and say "You first".

120 Pat Caddell is a fucking assfuck: "If Republicans lose, they can start by shooting their nominee's campaign." Pat Caddell ALWAYS blames Republican campaigns. ALWAYS. Why, he's so freakin' brilliant, nobody could lose if he were on the team. Unless the candidate sucked. Then it isn't Pat's fault. With any losing campaign, it's easy to say that the campaign was poorly run or the candidate wasn't up to the task. No campaign, not one, is perfect.

121 RNC: Florida Panhandle, Colorado, Pittsburgh Looking Good By Jim Geraghty November 6, 2012 6:40 P.M. Comments0 The RNC sends along: Exit polls show 60 percent of voters say economy is the number one issue and 60 percent say economy is getting worse or has stagnated. Voters say Romney is the best to handle the economy and they trust him to handle the deficit. Update from Ohio – high turnout in GOP counties, low turnout in Dem counties and Biden went to Cleveland. Clearly Chicago is nervous. Good news from the Florida panhandle, Republicans continue to outnumber Dems in Colorado, Romney had a great showing in Pittsburgh and Paul Begala is concerned with the drop in enthusiasm with young voters. For what it’s worth, I’m hearing the GOP turnout in Bucks County, Pennsylvania may be a record; this county was key to Pat Toomey’s win in the 2010 Senate race. The Romney campaign also sounds quite pleased about the turnout in “coal country” of Pittsburgh. But then again, these are sometimes in the eye of the beholder.

Wasn't it he who was really admonishing Romney's campaign for mostly muzzling him on Benghazi?  I heard him say a few times that they needed to come out and pound this or that.  Cut commercials, like O did, from clips of the first debate. And they didn't, so I think he'll blame any loss on that.

200 Reposting from a dead thread.  I took the time to write this up, so dammit somebody has to read it:

Since we're killing time, here is what you have to do to obtain a representative sample for an exit poll.

First, you have to start with a complete and accurate list of all poll locations. A minimum of at least 30 sites must be randomly selected. Randomly selected does not mean Joe Blow closes his eyes and points. You use computer generated randomizer, or at the least an every nth selection starting at a random site.

Then, you have to interview at the randomly selected locations from the time the polls open to close. Not just certain times of the day. A random selection of respondents must be chosen, which is accomplished by selecting every nth person who exits. Only these people, and all of these people, are asked to participate in the exit interview.

Because traffic varies throughout the day, you have to have someone (an enumerator) counting traffic throughout the day. Every 30 minutes, you look at the traffic counts and adjust the nth selection based on whether traffic is increasing or decreasing. The idea is you start off with an estimate of overall traffic, which occurs at uneven times throughout the day. If you want your ending sample to be representative, it has to be representative across time as well as locations and respondents.

Not everyone will agree to participate. So, you have to have someone estimate visible demographic characteristics such as gender, age and race for non-participators. Later you go back and weight the responder data so that it would represent the actual overall composition of all of the nth selected respondents.

This has to be done at each of the 30+ sites. Then, after all interviewing is complete, additional weighting is necessary to account for differing levels of populations around each site, and to reflect the overall market (city, county, state, etc).

So, bottom line, it is not a simple task to get a representative sample. Any exit polling results that are reported prior to gathering and weighting all data should be ignored. And I doubt seriously many, if any, exit pollsters are taking the steps I described above. We're probably seeing results from a very non-representative selection of sites and respondents.

294 I was at three polls in a Northern Virginia suburb today. I worked outside at two and voted at one.

All three had very heavy turnout. It took me 45 minutes to vote at mine at 1030. The one I opened was averaging 1 hr 45 min during the morning rush due to machines acting up; turns out they were plugged into a circuit without juice and were running on batteries and started to fail. Once that snafu was cleared up thanks to an extension cord and a different ouotlet, voting turned into a 40-60 minute affair.

The poll  I worked at the longest was for a fairly deep "blue" precinct with lots of 2008 Obama voters. Voting times were consistently in the  2+ hour range all day, and most voters toughed it out. But when the the post-workday rush kicked in around 1600,  I noticed that many of the Dem voters were bailing from the poll. It was like it had a revolving door. Quite a few came out and asked Obama's folks "is there some other place I can vote? I don't have time for this."

Many weren't willing or able to stick with a 2+ hour wait and gave up.

What surprised me the most about this precinct was the sheer numbers of African Americans and immigrants that willingly took Republican sample ballots out of my hands - nothing at all like 2008 where voters swore at me and told me to eff-off.

I know this is all anecdotal flotsam, but I have a strong sense Virginia is going to break for Mitt, and perhaps strong.

Stay turgid, Morons.

Actually Oklahoma votes more Repub than Texas so those looking for a new home, it's actually a very nice place with a pretty good basketball team and a football team (or two) that can whip Texas' a$$.

322 As I told the Romney caller after I voted today,  Romney was by no means my first choice.

He did run the most focused, effective campaign I've seen, and was always honorable.

He made me want to vote for him, instead of against the other guy.

Benghazi -- a distraction with no solution.  Romney didn't "miss his chance".  The chances presented themselves at too late a date.

First off, OpenSecrets.org. It's got a page where you can search the donor lists for every candidate. As part of the donation process, you're required to list your employer.

If you plug in "US Navy" (for example) into the search term, you get a list out. Some of the results are "US Navy", or "US Navy Reserve", or "US Navy Officer", or "US Navy (retired)".

Given that this is a public record, either the regulations aren't what you think they are, or they're not enforced.

Fairfax, VA here.  It was INSANE this morning (0530), and turnout - anecdotally - has been massive, and breaking hard for R/R. 

I'm a federal employee, and many people in my office are VA residents and are vocal R/R supporters.

Posted by: The Political Hat at November 06, 2012 03:34 PM (sZTYJ)

772 First off, OpenSecrets.org. It's got a page where you can search the donor lists for every candidate. As part of the donation process, you're required to list your employer. If you plug in "US Navy" (for example) into the search term, you get a list out. Some of the results are "US Navy", or "US Navy Reserve", or "US Navy Officer", or "US Navy (retired)". Given that this is a public record, either the regulations aren't what you think they are, or they're not enforced. Posted by: Meiczyslaw at November 06, 2012 07:32 PM (4+LTj) I don't what that site "requites". I don't know to many people who would be so overtly political and then put in their Military Affiliation. It's also against the Regulations. I'm just telling you how it is. Anyone who did that is a jack ass

907 Hey guys.... been lurking here for about a month. Y'all have kept me sane, so bless you for that.

I live just south of Raleigh in Wake County. We're the swing county here, and we went pretty hard for O last time. I voted at about 4:00, and it was slow, but picking up as folks got out of work.

Anyway, there was a GOP and a Dem guy handing out cheat sheets in the parking lot, and the GOP guy told me that about 70% of people had been going Republican.

Anecdotally, there are almost NO Obama signs in these parts. I think all told, I've counted 5 over the last month. There's more Romney signs than that just on my block. And we're all transplants from the North.

Back to lurking...

1012 I think the changing lighter colors on the CAC map are simply reflecting the net vote total to the moment.  Difference is that if its DARK, then that's called.  So the lighter colors are just who is winning the net votes as reported at the moment.

1077 How Much Will Cuyahoga’s Vote Drop from 2008? By Jim Geraghty November 6, 2012 7:11 P.M. Comments0 Over at Third Base Politics, a right-leaning blog covering Ohio politics, they think turnout in Cuyahoga County — which includes Cleveland and its suburbs — is down dramatically from 2008. This is a county that Obama won, 69 percent to 30 percent, in 2008. They summarize: Data from the Secretary of State showed 253,000 early votes already cast in Cuyahoga County. 23% of in-person voting using total registered Cuyahoga County voters from 2008 would be 255,595 votes for a total of around 508,000 votes. In 2008, Cuyahoga ended up casting a little more than 678,000 votes. That means that as of 5:00pm, Cuyahoga County is approximately 170,000 votes short of its 2008 total. They add, “Reports are that suburban Cuyahoga is over-performing right now, so things may be even worse than these terrible numbers appear.”

This crap gets pulled every damn election year.  I could understand it if there was no such thing as absentee voting or early voting, but now in most places it seems that you can vote for an entire f'ing month before the actual election date.  If you can't be bothered to get an absentee ballot, if you can't get yourself to a damn early voting center over an entire month, and if you can't get yourself out to the polls by 6:00/7:00/8:00/9:00 on election day, you probably shouldn't even be trusted with your vote.  STFU and quit bitching about poll closing times.

1109 If Miami/Dade, Broward, and palm beach counties start reporting early-it will look like 0bama is ahead. Those are big dem areas.

Obama didn't get as many votes as some downticket Democrats did in the Palm Beach EV.  That's not a good sign for him...

That question: "Surely your theory wasn't that Romney was winning VA by a 21% margin and would increase his victory to a 25-30% margin or more once the Republican counties came in???" ... wasn't directed at you, Dave in Fla. It was directed at Evilpens who was saying that the big cities come in first (hence the early 21% Romney margin was in blue counties, with the implication being that number has to go up, not down, as the night rolls on). It isn't "trolling" to point out that's not a likely scenario.

I voted #25 at roughly 7:15AM

Wife voted #200-ish at 9AM

Daughter voted #650 ish at 2PM

Drove by at 4 PM - polling place still jammed with line out the door. Precinct is heavily GOP, with a few Dems (including one nut case that thought I and the other precinct delegate were Mormons in jeans when we were doing a lit drop - but there is a large Mental Health facility in the precinct).

Roughly 40% turnout at 2PM. Local media projecting 70% turnout county-wide. Don't know what it means for sure, but MUCH more active than 2008. Going for the applejack...

1232 I lived in Pensacola for years. The panhandle is heavily Republican in any year, and additionally it's ridiculously dependent on military base jobs. There are so many bases there - NAS Pensacola, Whiting Field, Corry Station, Eglin AFB, Tyndall AFB, Hurlbert Field, NSA Panama City. If Mitt's leading before the Panhandle's been counted, FL is in the bag.

Florida is basically 2 states - South Florida and North Florida/Panhandle, the latter which closes later.

51-48 for Obama is good for Romney. That 51% includes early votes, which Dems always lead and the South Florida precincts, which lean Dem.

Obama would need a much bigger lead with 50%+ of votes counted to offset the gain Romney will get in the Panhandle.

That's exactly right.  If Barky wins, he'll just keep printing money to keep the country afloat well past the end of his term.  Then a new DemocRAT will get into office and do the same.  It will only end when/if one of the euro-trash nations go under - then the lights will go out here.

1605 What is depressing is that even if Romney pulls this out, it looks like repealing Obamacare is off the table totally given the senate, and we still have 50/50 nation where one half puts nothing in, but takes a shit load out.

Half the country knowingly votes to become Greece and it is trending worse. Scary and sad.

Posted by: Dan at November 06, 2012 09:55 PM (/7gN/)

Here is why: half of the people in this country have below normal intelligence. That will always be true. What the Democrats have done is that they have convinced the dim witted people that they deserve to have an equal say in what happens in the country. It used to be that the village idiot recognized he was the village idiot and didn't try to run things - that is no longer the case.

If Obama is reelected, Americans have made the formal  transition from humans to hamsters (and all the red pill / blue pill implication that carries).   Put us in a cage, throw in free food and housing, encourage unlimited dreams of sex (to keep us busy) and we are satisfied.  We have accepted walls, rules,  limitations and ownership to ensure our current hamster existence doesnÂ’t  stop.  The long term outlook, at best, is that we become Europe.  We give up, stop building, stop striving, stop reproducing and degenerate into a has-been species - but we get free food, a warm place to sleep and plenty of dreams of sex until we donÂ’t.

Our new country, Hamsterica.

If Obama doesnÂ’t win we are not Hamsterica tomorrow but will we be in 4 years or 8?  What is the path back to being America?
