Bush 197, Kerry 188 as of 8:04pm PST
California just closed, and cnn predicts kerry wins california and the race suddenly becomes close, much to the surprise (and chagrin) of many loan officers watching in the lobby.
Interesting how these predictions are done. Apparently CNN waits till the polls of that time zone closes, decides which (if any) states in that zone are majority R/D and adds those electoral votes to that candidate. California just closed, and since its apparently mostly Demo, Kerry just got those 55 electoral votes added to his total, making it look a lot closer.
I don't think any of these numbers are official, but interesting enough =P
