The results out of GA are pure BS.

[Laelth]

Georgia and North Carolina are very similar states, demographically. Politically, they're also quite similar. In fact, I might argue that Atlanta makes Georgia slightly more liberal. The weather was good in both states today. Early voting in both states broke records.

Yet, now, it's 1:00 A.M. EST, and NC has not yet been called for either Presidential candidate because McCain and Obama are running neck and neck while GA was called hours ago with McCain winning handily, 55% to 44%. http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2008/results/individual/#mapPGA

B.S.

And our Senate race was a dead heat yesterday. All polling indicated that we were headed for a run-off with neither major candidate getting over 50% of the vote. Chambliss was polling at 47% yesterday. Yet, today, this race gets called quite early with Chambliss winning 52% to 44%, according to CNN at this hour. http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2008/results/individual/#mapSGA

B.S.

If you ask me, I would say another two Democratic candidates have been robbed, as have the people of this state as well as the people of the United States, by Diebold. I do not trust these results at all. They do not make any sense. Our Secretary of State and our voting machines must go!

:mad:

The United States is a LIBERAL Country. And Georgia is a moderate state. We voted for Clinton in '92, and we gave the country Jimmy Carter in 1976. I so wanted my home state to be on the right side of history in this historic election, but we have been denied that right, I believe, by people who loathe democracy and machines that can easily be programmed to subvert the will of the people.

In sadness on this night of joy,

2. As a native Georgian living in Mississippi, I share your pain...

Georgia was once (and will be again!) the most progressive southern state. I'm really sorry for what's happened to my beloved home state in the past 10 years or so. But things will get better. Even here in darkest Mississippi, there are rays of hope: Three of four congressmen are Democrats.

3. They stole votes from Bob Barr

Look at the totals for the libertarian candidates.All of the down ticket candidates got 3-5% of the vote yet Barr only got .07%. That does not compute.

I would not be surprised to see the same in other southern states.

4. I agree 100%. I just find the results

hard to believe.

I pray he will help the Martin campaign.
