Indiana is the first state to flip. Obama won it in 2008.

Update: Fox has called Ohio for Obama, effectively handing him the election. But Karl Rove is strongly protesting that call, arguing that a quarter of the vote remains to be counted in Ohio and it’s still too close to call. Rove and the Romney campaign argue that they can still win the state. So stay tuned. I’ve turned OH from blue to purple to reflect the dispute.
Thank you. This is an excellent format. Simple. Clear. Best site hands down to follow the results hassle free.
Praying, praying, praying we win.
I think TN was just called for Romney as well. Of course, that was predictable. It’s the swing states that we desperately need.
Howsabout a running tally of each candidate’s electoral votes, at the top of the page, appropriately color-coded?
As someone without TV I want to thank you for this format.
Hopefully we get to see alot of long faces on the MSM tonight. Of course, I won’t be watching, maybe one of you can report later!
maddow already mentioned running up the score with VA win. what a professional.
