5. I STILL don't know if Florida is red, blue, lilac or what!

I can't believe that Florida is still not decided. At least THIS time the entire Presidential race is not dependent on my state!

It looks as though we're going to have to wait for all the absentee and provisional ballots to be counted. Since so many provisional ballots were cast because of True the Vote challenges, and so many cast absentee ballots because of the limited days for early voting, I'm hoping that they push President Obama past the point of a required recount.

ETA: What's with MSNBC's numbers?
From the Florida BOE:
Romney / Ryan
REP 4,094,952
49.29%
Obama / Biden
DEM 4,141,618
49.85%

From MSNBC:
Barack Obama 50% 4,129,360
Mitt Romney 49% 4,083,321

Why are the MSNBC numbers still off?
