1. Is Florida like other states where more populated areas tend to take longer to tabulate?

11. Early tallys usually favor the Republican candidate because the smaller counties are

red and report early.

This is really good because the Dem leaning counties are last.

2. Polls haven't closed in the Panhandle yet. nt

3. There's hope....

....but let's not get to high on FL just yet. We have two time zones here, and a rather conservative one (the Panhandle in the Western part of the state) is conservative. Those polls don't close for another 18 minutes.

10. Fla Panhandle in the central TZ.

Yes, it is more conservative like a lot of N. FL but it is sparcely populated when compared to the central and southern areas of the state. Lots of empty farm land. The panhandle could actually be more compared to southern Alabama. The exceptions are the military enclaves of Eglin and Pensacola and the military retiree strip along the Gulf Coast, Ft Walton, Panama City, etc.. All still conservative but they have a lot of young ethnic recent military enlistees that find the president more appealing than Rmoney.

4. a knockout by Florida would be poetic for a couple of reasons

2000 for one. Rick Scott for another.

6. 25%??

Where does it say 25% already in? Aside from this guy on twitter?

7. I believe 25% is the early vote tabulation.. people are still in line to vote in big Dem counties

[ShadowLiberal]

12. Only 8% of the vote is counted so far at Politico in FL

Not 25%
