slant.

Calling an election with only 20% of the votes in is garbage

I wouldn't trust the media until the final votes are in.

Calling for Walker - way too fucking early.

Their exit polls are completely worthless.

Hover mouse over Milwaukee County -- go to far southeastern corner, than go north 2 counties. Sigh

and Barrett is winning there by more than 11 points.

And the overall total is moving closer.

It's not over until the all the votes are counted and I'd put money on a recount by the end of the night.
