Current results have nationwide
Kerry 55%
Bush 42%
Nader 2%.

And, since it's tallied by state...
Electoral Votes
Kerry 414(!)
Bush 124
Nader 0
With 270 needed to win...

11. I'm an AOLer and not all of the AOL users are pro-Bush.

Go onto the message boards at AOL and there are just as many posts bashing Bush as there are ones praising the idiot.

5. Its just a fantasy
You are exactly right. Too many months ahead to be resting on laurels, much work to do...

9. I don't see how
I am on this board constantly and saw no thread to vote in this poll. That doesn't mean there wasn't, but it seems to me that this DUing and FRing only balances each other out. I try to vote on as many issues I can, but I never attempt to vote more than once. Plus, I believe that AOL is a conservative server, with more pugs than dems, so the poll IMHO has not been "DUed".

13. No, not more pugs than dems.
I'm on the message boards quite often and it appears to be about 50/50.

6. nice, but unscientific
for instance they give Kerry Idaho--not likely by a long shot.

52-46% for Bush.

It looks a little too slanted...

12. well
it is unscientific and if you look at the voting history of Idaho it is unlikely that Kerry, even with a vacation home in the state, will win Idaho.

10. Check out Arkansas too
it was a complete tie:
65 votes to 65.
(and 1 for Nader)

See, it cost him Arkansas!!

15. Texas
The debate is thick here. In Dallas it seems about 50/50. Bush will win Texas, but there are allot of Texans that don't like him.
