mbauer (Diary) Wednesday, November 5th at 10:44AM EST (link)Do your numbers include early voting for 2008?
Just
tsquare (Diary) Wednesday, November 5th at 11:01AM EST (link)The ‘final’ numbers posted at Drudge
This was not a blow out and there were few ‘new’ voters
Those numbers aren't final.
LAWizard (Diary) Wednesday, November 5th at 11:06AM EST (link)Votes will be trickling in for a few days. There’s still overseas absentee ballots to tally. I’d say turnout was similar.
Actually...
Jon E. Schultz II (IlliniJon) (Diary) Wednesday, November 5th at 11:10AM EST (link)I was checking into the same path this morning, but Bush actually only got 62 million votes. Obama has already bested him.
What I do find interesting, however, is as you mentioned, turnout is still lower than 2004. At least for now.
