538 is back up and theorizes that if Obama can get one of the battle states, it should be ok. Or horribly close.

OK, I have my eye on MSN.com as well as watching CNN, and MSN.com says Obama has 103 electoral votes so far while McCain has only 34!

For PA projected, which has 21 EV.
 
Well VA''s numbers don''t include Richmond or Norfolk yet, right? Or Northern VA. So it could swing back! We can''t despair yet!
 
So how are you all managing information? I''m currently watching CNN on the big screen, msnbc interactive map online, and a local station in a second room.... and I STILL feel like I can''t get info fast enough!!!

Hi, Princesss!

Where can I track VA counties? I want to see how Albemarle votes (and I want to see how Periello does against Goode).
 
THING! How did I not know you''re in VA? I was in VA last weekend and went to school there for the last few years.
