Romney’s Florida campaign has acknowledged their candidate lost in Florida as well. Romney already conceded the national race after he lost the other battleground states.

“The numbers in Florida show this was winnable,” Brett Doster, Florida advisor for Romney, said in a statement. “We thought based on our polling and range of organization that we had done what we needed to win. Obviously, we didn’t, and for that I and every other operative in Florida has a sick feeling that we left something on the table. I can assure you this won’t happen again.”

With Florida’s 29 Electoral College votes, Obama will have 332 votes to Romney’s 206.

“We feel we will be the official winner in Florida later today,” Obama campaign manager Jim Messina said. Preliminary results are due into from the counties to the state by noon Saturday. The final results are to be certified Nov. 20.

God has a great sense of humor, doesn't He?

Wajifunze kutumia multiple sources for information na sio kutegemea tu FOX; Pia wapunguze kuwa naive, ni ujinga kwa chama kutegemea internal polling system yake kupanga mikakati, kazi hii ni ya other specialized and experienced institutions;

Aisee kuna kitu ambacho nimekuja kukigundua jana ambacho Obama alikifanya vizuri sana; I hope CDM wanaweza kukireplicate nyumbani kabla ya 2015 na wanaweza kukijaribu 2014. Obama campaign ni lazima kuipa heshima yake iliwazunguka republicans kupita kiasi.

You are very right, but i think this is more to do with Obama's team and not democratic party per se; kama unakubaliana na hili, Chadema kuna uwezekano kweli wa kupata watu ambao watakuwa less selfish and self centred kimkakati na badala yake kushirikiana na wengine wenye mawazo mazuri kusaidia kufanikisha a winning strategy for the party? I doubt it, badala yake, wao kwa wao watazungukana for personal interests;

Yup! Mr. Obama is in a much stronger position than anyone could have imagined in August, 2011.
Just goes to show how surprisingly things can turn out.
The lessons I take from the last fourteen months: Never ever lose hope! Never ever give up! And never ever underestimate the skinny black guy from Chicago 🙂

When Florida finally gets called for Obama, I have a little victory dance prepared to celebrate the fact that I nailed it @ 332 Electoral College votes :biggrin1:

President Barack Obama appears close to victory in Florida, the only state yet to declare a result from Tuesday's US presidential election.
Vote counting continues, but the head of Florida's Democratic Party issued a statement congratulating Mr Obama.
Aides to Mitt Romney were also quoted appearing to concede defeat.
Florida's vote cannot change the overall result, but the slow count has brought back memories of the bitterly contested recount in 2000.
The Sunshine State's famous "hanging chads" sparked a crisis in that year's Bush-Gore election, eventually leading to a Supreme Court ruling that installed George W Bush in the White House.
Ground game praise As of Thursday evening Mr Obama had a 0.7% lead in Florida - totalling more than 50,000 votes - but some ballots have yet to be counted.
The final result is expected by midday on Saturday, after three counties - Broward, Palm Beach and Duval - finish their tallies.
If the final difference in the number of votes for President Obama and his Republican challenger Mitt Romney is below 0.5%, a recount would be automatically triggered.
But whatever the outcome, it matters little since the Democratic incumbent decisively won the national vote in the electoral college.

Huko Florida wanaohesabu hizo kura wamesoma shule za kata au nini, iweje jimbo kubwa kama California wamemaliza kuhesabu siku ile ile wao bado tu?

ndo hapo bongo tukifanya hivyo tunaonekana tunahonga lakini ukija kuangalia hiyo ni njia mojawapo ya kuhamasisha watu wako kupiga kura....coz kuna wengi ambao wangependa kupiga kura lakini hawana usafiri wa kwenda kwenye vituo..tatizo la nchi kama US ni kwamba every vote counts ndo maana wanazitafuta kwa nguvu zote...bongo chama kama ccm hakina haja ya kutafuta usafiri wa watu kupiga kura kwa sababu tayari wana mabox feki mengi ya wapiga kura tayari
