We're gonna stay up with you folks! We here at DBC news will stay up with you as the news unfolds..because we CARE! The results from the Fantasy Election are POURING in....and with 60% of the precincts reporting.....DBC news has claimed this race TOO CLOSE TO CALL!!! With both candidates recieving 50% of the vote. Stay with us folks....for all your news....you know where to come! DBC....we get your news and we get it FAST!

If I counted right, we have
11 votes for the Republicans
11 votes for the Democrats
1 undervote, though the Republicans are rightly claiming the chad is indented. I would consider this vote valid, but if I were an election supervisor somewhere I'd also demand we take a vote on it. (That's what we do in Germany when there's the least bit of doubt about a ballot: have a vote, count it anyway, and put it in an extra envelope for doubtful ballots so the people at the next level can check our decision. They don't do that though, they believe us and through our envelope away.)

All grey states have no votes cast except Idaho, where the count is 1-1.
All coloured states are 1-0 except California, Pennsylvania, Michigan 2-0 and New York 2-1. However, should miamiu change his avatar, this map would become outdated.

With 83% of precincts reporting, nym90 and Harry are ahead in the popular vote, 51,5%-48,5%. I'll do the EC in a minute.
BTW I just went to the polling station to vote for the Independent candidate, and they told me that
1 I wasn't registered to vote
and
2 There weren't any independent candidates anyway.

Well, the polls are still open for another 2 hours and 20-odd minutes, but nobody has voted in over seven hours, or at least nobody with a right to vote.
This reminds me of when I was a volunteer during the 1999 European elections.
Polls are open 8-18 in Germany, except in European Elections, when they're open 8-21, don't ask me why. Of course, nobody votes that late when they're not used to it...Boy, those last few hours were a drag...

This is my take on the final map. All states that really voted for supersoulty are called for him, enough other states are given to nym90 to make him the winner anyways.
nym90 274
supersoulty 264
I've also taken a look at how states' neighbors voted before determining their vote, but I've been less than consistent in that.
