Because it wasnt 100% clear until well into Wednesday that Kerry wasnt going to win Ohio.  There was still something of a chance that Kerry could click into the lead there as those heavily Democratic Cleveland precincts were the ones outstanding.  This actually happened in Ohio in 1976 where it looked as if Ford had won well into Wednesday morning only to be overwhelmed by those late Cleveland precincts.
