I just got my absentee ballot in Australia but it won't count. Who do you think will carry New York State? ?

Oh, Obama will definitely carry New York, but there's undoubtedly some local election issues going on in your state, so you should still throw in your account for those gigs.

It is your right an duty to vote, it gives you license to complain about your government. NYC always carries the state unless the democrats pick a real idiot (granted Hillary only got 10% more than an unknown) because the dems outnumber reps by something like 8 to 3, (needless to say a lot of these are government employees or those same people on Wall St. that Obama is blaming for this financial crisis). But it does matter, even if Obama takes the state as expected, because if there is a tie the popular vote does matter. I'd liek to see teh election resolved by a wide margin, to overcome errors and the fraud we already know is taking place.

You're absentee ballot will count as long as it is postmarked by Nov 4. Obama will win NY, but there are still other offices to vote for.

You're not voting for my guy, but I don't want you to give up your vote.

New York is likely to go for Obama by over a 20 point margin.

Is there still time to get it postmarked for 11/4. If so it will count provided it makes it here in ten days.

NY is certain for Obama; he has a 26% lead there.

All of the Atlantic Seaboard states are highly liberal and will be voting blue, as always.

obama will win NY but McCain will win it all

Fedex overnight.

As long as it is post markd by tommorrow it will count.
