Current Florida figures: Florida (29) 8:00 PM EST* Vote in: 26% Obama 51% 1,171,578 Romney 48 %1,104,991 Ouch. Can someone from Florida explain what the early vs late vote counts look like in the state, Conservative vs Liberal?

How is Florida allowing votes to be tabulated and ther results revealed while a portion of the state(panhandle)is still voting.
That is only with 1.3 % of the vote in. Fox has an error there.
Thank you for that tidbit! I’m too chicken to watch TV so getting my info here!
Remember 2000 when the media called it for Florida and the polls on the west side of the state hadn’t even closed yet? West side of Florida is on Central time. Cool out.
Tally is eastern time and very liberal: FSU campus and state capitol, so full of lobbyists, bureaucrats, etc.
Panhandle is still voting and it is ALL Republican... relax.
LLS
The panhandle hasnt even closed their polling places yet..the panhandle is overwhelmingly Republican
Panhandle still voting. This section will vote heavily for Romney so as long as he keeps it close elsewhere, nothing to be concerned about.
Doughty one... Grow a backbone. Quit whining. The night is young.
Per Dick Morris, it’s early voting totals. He was worried at first too.
Here comes romney surge
happens every 4 years it seems
With 2.2 % in Florida O-50.3% R-49.0%
Awesome, I love that Barone guy.
The Panhandle is in a different time zone.
Polls not closed there, yet, I don’t think.
That area is Republican.
50 to 49 Obama with 29% in, this means the Pan Handle will put Romney over the top. Bush was way behind in the 7-8PM count in 2000 and 2004
Doughty, they’ve only counted DEM counties in FL. Stay calm. We’ve got this! Panhandle where the solid Rs are is on a different time zone.
Let’s allow the polls in the conservative part of Florida, which is still voting, to close. And then let’s count their votes before we all wet ourselves prematurely.
Florida (29) 8:00 PM EST* 29% 50% 1,296,710 49% 1,270,981
With 29% in, Romney closing the gap in Florida. Was 63k down a minute ago with 28% in.
