Election Night is here...
It's a flight to quality. Many people had fled to forgein currency to hedge themselves against probable stock market losses if either Kerry had won, or the outcome was in doubt. Now that it is over, people are selling the currencies and plowing back into stocks. It is nothing unexpected.

Get rid of the damn electoral college
Absolutely. It was just like the 1 or 2 people who were still Billy Koch fans to the end. In spite of what everyone else said, they still made their voices heard. The elections are the sameway in this respect. Just because your side loses, doesn't mean your voice isn't heard.

Kerry Concedes
Actually from what I understand, there were record numbers of youth who voted. The problem was that people who hadn't voted for years in the 30-64 age groups got out and voted in record numbers as well. Pretty much they cancelled each other out, and the raw age bracket percentages stayed the same.

Looking at CNN, they have already awarded to Nevada to Bush, which MSNBC has not. But they have still not awarded Ohio, which MSBNC has. If both of those fall to Bush, that makes 274 and guarentees Bush victory.

MSNBC has now officially awarded Ohio to Bush. That gives him 269 EVs according to them, which would lock up at least a tie nationwide. http://msnbc.msn.com/id/6291779/&CM=elexbantop&CE=full
