Early Exits

I should know better than to trust exit polls. That said, it looks like Kerry's leading quite handily in Pennsylvania, Minnesota, New Hampshire and Maine; he's also ahead (again, according to early exit polls) in Florida, Ohio, Michigan, Iowa and Wisconsin. It's too close to say anything about New Mexico, Nevada and Colorado, though I expect them to go GOP. The only swing state that's firmly in Bush's camp (again, according to early exit polls) is Arizona.

I haven't spent this much time scrutinizing exit poll numbers since I wrote about the election of 1992. And this time I don't even have to turn in a paper!

As the day progresses, it's getting harder and harder to reach sites with constantly-updated political contact. This may go down as the Election that Broke the Internet.
