Given what that woman saw, I'm surprised she publicly tweeted about it

Yep, but not entirely surprising.

Btw, did anyone predict MS to swing towards the President?

It's ironic that this is in possibly the only state to swing towards Obama.

I don't think the swing map is accurate yet, the election results aren't.

When I checked the first Exit Poll from MS, it was 7% Obama and 93% Romney among MS Whites. Now they have upped it to 10% Obama.

LOL.

New Jersey might swing towards Obama, Alaska probably will, and there's next to no change in margin in Rhode Island, Vermont, New York, and Hawaii.

While I'm unsurprised this would happen at Ole Miss, the place where the right-wing racists in the state tend to go to college, all local reports say that it wasn't really a riot.

According to the NYT results as of earlier today, Obama improved on his margin in four states: Alaska, Mississippi, New Jersey, and Rhode Island.  Three of these states are easy to explain, with Palin, Sandy, and a white electorate that had already beyond bottomed out in 2008.  Li'l Rhody is a surprise though.
