I'm sure they're making up vote counts :doh:

 

The vote counts weren't even started when Fox reported the results. OF COURSE they're making them up.

 

That's why they're called "projections".

Indiana has McCain up by 25k with 75% of the vote in

 

Virginia with 78% of the vote in has a razor thin margin of 1,100 votes

 

1100 votes? That's not a margin of victory, it's a margin of error.

 

This is why I hate predictions based on real-time election night returns. I wish the networks would just show regular programming, and let the votes be counted. The 2000 fiasco was in no small part caused by the media frenzy over "projections".
