It's looking like an all-nighter... not to find out who won, but to find out by how much. Will the President get the electoral blowout necessary to get this thing locked up solidly or will we have to litigate it? Iowa and Nevada are suddenly breaking his way, if barely. Toss in Ohio and New Mexico and the President passes 280 e.v., which will be harder to argue.

Here are the figures as of 1:45 or so from AP:
OH - Bush up 102K (2%) with 92% in
NM - Bush up 23K (5%) with 92% in
IA - Bush up 7K (1%) with 92% in
NV - Bush up 1K (razor thin) with 49% in

With OH and any one of the other 3, the election's Bush's. Without OH, Kerry would take it unless Bush got WI (highly unlikely). Fortunately, things look good for Bush in OH and while the percentages are damn narrow, the number of votes involved make it look less than ripe for a challenge.

Update: Bush now up 104K in OH with 93% in
