With all precincts reporting, Bush wins Colorado,

started yet!

 

The Raw Story | November 2 2004

 

President Bush has scored a resounding victory in

Colorado, winning the popular vote 41 to 34 percent

over Massachusetts senator John Kerry – at least

according to the Rocky Mountain News, which posted the

‘final’ election results sometime Monday afternoon,

RAW STORY discovered.

 

The News called the election for Bush. But several

minutes later, with fewer precincts reporting, Kerry

was up 41-40 percent. The image is reproduced below.

The paper previously had endorsed Bush for reelection.

 

Trouble is, election day is Tuesday. The latest poll,

by Zogby, has Bush edging Kerry 48-47 percent.

 

RAW STORY believes that the paper is testing their

online reporting system, though most papers do so

internally, without calling the race in public view

before the election actually occurs.

 

The paper also called the national Senate race.

Democratic senate hopeful and state Attorney General

Ken Salazar lost, by eight percent, to beer mogul Pete

Coors, who trounced him with 48 percent of the vote.

 

Curiously, Salazar is leading in both current polls,

with a 52-44 percent lead over Coors in Zogby’s poll,

and a 49-47 percent lead in the latest SurveyUSA poll.
