Four states and 407,000 votes away from the presidency
Some of those straggling precincts have reported, and so here is an updated set of numbers, according to the results this morning on the New York Times’ results map:
Florida: 73,858
Ohio: 103,481
Virginia: 115,910
Colorado: 113,099
Those four states, with a collective margin of, 406,348 for Obama, add up to 69 electoral votes.

The margin to flip is not 407,000. it’s 203,501. If you change that number of people from one side to the other, technically they will not vote for Obama so he loses the same amount of votes as Romney would gain.
It’s really a very small percentage of people who need to be educated about Conservatism. I’m making it my life’s work to convince 4 Libs to start thinking correctly over the next 4 years. That’s one a year.
Doable.

This article is bullcrap, 406,000 votes would have flipped the election.
I want to see the article where it states if a Massachusetts liberal who implemented Romneycare was not the nominee how many more votes would we have got. My guess Obama would have lost by alot.
I still can’t understand, you win the mid term elections in 2010 by a landslide by running against obamacare, so what do the elite mullahs in DC do, they nominate the father of obamacare, Romneycare.
The DC establishment swill cost us this election!!!!
