Obama will get whacked in California. Still, big night for him.
But he's losing big over there so far.

1. Can judge yet. You have to assume these first votes are absentee ballots.

2. Yep, I believe he will have the same result that the other "big swing" states showed
He didn't make the gains pollsters thought.

3. What percent has come in?
I would assume that what is revealed first, are the absentee ballots.

Naturally, Clinton will have the advantage.

Does anyone know how many absentee ballots were cast in CA?

4. Early numbers from California are not always terribly indicative.
The big counties; LA, etc. get counted later on. I can't say for sure if that'll make a big difference here, but it sure as hell does in the General elections. I can remember in 2000 and 2004 it looked like Bush was running a tie- or even slightly ahead- for the first half of the night.. ha ha!

5. Katz...why are you always such a downer?
We won't know the full results from CA at least until tomarrow morning. Most of these are early votes.
