Kerry's Statement

MSNBC's lovely Norah O'Donnell just read a statement from the Kerry campaign that they believe 250,000 votes remain to be counted and they believe Kerry will still win Ohio and thus the election. If those uncounted yet vote break 2 of 3 for Kerry (possible especially is many of these are from Cleveland) then Kerry wins.

Kenneth Blackwell (Ohio's Republican Secretary of State) is reminding everyone that provisional ballots are not counted in Ohio until 11 days after the election. Blackwell says absentee ballots are counted already, others counting as we speak. He said he did not know how many ballots are out there waiting to be counted. Bush's lead is down to under 102,000 votes.

Chris Matthews says there is an army of lawyers on the way from Boston to Ohio to battle for votes and make sure all votes are counted. The Kerry campaign is now saying they will not concede Ohio, period.

I do not want to say I told you so, but I told you so. Hello, 2000 all over again.
