Everything else
According to an AP report, John Kerry has conceded defeat to President Bush in a telephone call to the White House this morning. He ran a tough campaign, and I personally am very grateful that Kerry has taken the high road in not turning the election into a court battle, …
As I hit the hay last night at around 1:30 a.m., Mary Beth Cahill was making an asinine statement vastly overestimating the number of provisional, overseas, and military ballots still to count in Ohio. This morning, with 100% of the precincts reporting, President Bush is ahead in Ohio by about …
Zogby has data updated as of lunchtime today, but their map, confusingly enough, shows Virginia (!) up for grabs, despite the fact that Virginia has gone solidly Republican in every election in my lifetime, and Ohio and Florida firmly in Bush territory, despite word that both of those states have …
Get out and vote today, but remember to GET INFORMED first. Don’t let Michael Moore, FOX News, Dan Rather, or Ann Coulter shoulder your responsibility to think seriously about what you believe, and to get the facts about the candidates’ platforms.

My friend Chris sent me a link to this editorial. I think a few weeks ago Andy Rooney made a related point on 60 Minutes, although probably less trenchantly and without pertinent supporting data. His point was that if you haven’t bothered getting informed until now, do all of us …
Check out the Current Electoral Vote Predictor 2004 for updated coverage of the latest electoral college predictions. The map data is based on the latest polls, as referenced in the data tables you can find on the site. You might also find interesting the animated version, which tracks the history …
Whoa, what’s with that tag line? Delirious from encroaching nap… Today’s the first day I haven’t had to spend hours on the road to Northern Virginia, so I’m taking it easy. Yesterday the band had a good rehearsal. Unfortunately our drummer Rich couldn’t be there, but I played Stick the …
