Where were they getting their information from? 
Something needs to be done with the electoral process. I think it needs to be tweaked to reflect the (technological)changes/advances of the 21st Century.

One reason for the discrepancies is this: I was watching ABC and they were being extra cautious about their projections this year because of the huge mistake they made last election. They were like 95% certain before they listed any projections AND their "projection team" were in a room and had no contact with the outside world. That way, they don't have any influcence from other networks. I am sticking with them. They were the only network who had not given Ohio to Bush.
