Wow. I was just flipping around some of the stations at the top of the hour and saw that NBC has already called Pennsylvania for Obama. ABC, too. I didn't expect that to be so quick anywhere.

GOVERNING Politics is the place for news and analysis on campaigns and elections. If there's a ballot measure in California, a legislative election in Alabama, a mayoral election in Anchorage or a governor's race in Rhode Island, GOVERNING Politics probably is writing about it. We love everything about state and local politics, from polls and campaign ads to policy debates and demographic trends.
