Obama was inching up toward 2.9 million lead all day, hovering around 2.89 and change for hours. But he shot past 2.9 million about an hour ago.

He's not much more than an asterisk in the record books.


ETA: He bragged about his record as Mass Governor on several
occasions. His margin of loss was one of the biggest there.

This why we worked so hard.
Extra sweet that we were predicted to lose up until the last day.
We turned Florida blue 11-4-2008 &
11-6-2012 ( I mean 11-8-2012)!!!!

Seriously. Every time somebody says "Well, Florida doesn't matter anyway," I say the fuck it doesn't. It matters. MILLIONS stood in line and organized. It fucking matters!

Awesome job!

you deserve it and be overjoyed that you gave Obama another 19 EVs to his winning, for now a total of 332 electoral votes, increasing his mandate.
