Which states are usually called first on election day?

[ccharles000]

Does anyone know in what order states are usually called.

1. Northeast will get called within minutes.

My state of NY will probably get called within minutes of polls closing.

4. Nothing should be called until West Coast polls close.

2. Indiana and Kentucky

They close their polls very early and usually they go to the republican nominee by large margins.

I hope this year Indiana won't be called as soon as the polls close for McCain.

3. Kentucky and Indiana almost always due to early closing time.

But I have a feeling Indiana will be too close to call at first.

5. Idaho. It can be called for the Republicans for 2012 right now.

:rofl:

6. It has always been the state of INDIANA first!

7. New Hampshire, the tiny village of Dixville Notch!
