Who is winning the election?

[the_only_turek_fan]

CNN.com has a bunch of 0's on there website right now.

Is there a ticker or something online that I can see for election progress?

Or can someone watching TV put up some updates.

Thanks

The first polls close at 7:00 EST so there won't be any results until then. Most stations start their coverage between 6:00-7:00 EST.

Yup, you won't see any results for a while now, and depending on how close it is, you might not see a winner until well after tonight.

Is it me or is the internet really slow today?

Of course, it's ridiculously early, but definitely good news for Kerry thus far, polling ahead in each battleground state except for Iowa (tied) and Colorado (behind by 3). He's polling at less than 50% in only 4 of the 14 states, while Bush is at 50% or greater in only three (including two he was expected to win easily) Hopefully Democrat voters won't see this, get overconfident and not show up.

The only thing that anyone can say for sure right now if that turnout is huge, which conventional wisdom says is good news for Kerry.

But it's early.

Is it normal in the US for them to start counting before people finish voting? They don't do this in Canada do they? ???

They aren't counting the votes, its just exit polls I beleive.

NEW YORK (Reuters) - U.S. stocks reversed course suddenly on Tuesday and drifted lower as chatter on the Internet speculated that early exit polls had Sen. John Kerry leading the presidential election in key swing states.
The Dow Jones industrial average was down 42 points, or 0.42 percent, at 10,012. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index was down 2 points, or 0.20 percent, at 1,128. And the technology-laced Nasdaq Composite Index was down 0.69 of a point, or 0.03 percent, at 1,979.

The Dow Jones and S&P 500 had been higher for most of the session, heading for a sixth straight day of gains, but turned south sharply just after 2:30 p.m. EDT on the exit poll speculation.

"What we are hearing is that there is some feedback coming back from Ohio, that there could be a closer outcome out there or John Kerry could even potentially win that state," said Evan Olsen, head of equity trading at Stephens Inc.
