Well, here in the Chicagoland area. They are predicting Obama win or lose, that there is going to be rioting in the city. Chicago PD has canceled all days off on Tuesday for officers and they have been told to show up for a 12 hour day.
They are expecting close to 1 million in Grant Park for the Victory Rally.
Glad I live in the burbs....
I've not heard a single mention of rioting . . . I've heard that they expect a very large number to converge on downtown for the rally whether they have tickets or not to be part of history . . .
Answer this question for, and I do not know the answer. Did the city of Chicago have any riots when the Bears or Bulls won their championships? If so why would one not think it would not happen after this election especially if Obama loses? I mean many and probably most democrats expect Obama to win, and if he doesn´t I truly believe that there will be riots.
Well, there was looting on the West Side of Chicago after one of the Bull Championships...
All I was saying that I heard through my brother-in-law, who heard it from his neighbor, who is a Chicago Cop. That Chicago PD was worried about the crowd size and the possible issues of rioting.
I would hope in a presidential election in 2008, in the United States of America. That there would not be rioting win or lose. However, in any case with events like this, there is always a certain few that like to cause problems.

I hope I am wrong, but I think there a a good chance of rioting somewhere in this country if Obama loses the election.

There will not be riots. Obama is going to win this election.
I don't say that out of a sense of cockiness.
I say it because far too many reputable political models have indicated that this will become fact... that's all.
Even the pundits on Fox are discussing the inevitability of the Obama presidency.

Or wins.
I've heard quite a bit of talk on Chicago radio saying they are trying to prepare for it, win or lose.
Fox says that the Obama camp does not want to see polarizing figures like P.Diddy, Tim Robbins, Susan Sarandon, or Ben Affleck at the victory celebration at Grant Park.

I voted abstentee and still got a sticker. But instead of mailing it in, I went to the election commission and cast my ballot there.

I thank you for your service, too!
I voted today with my 19 year old daughter( her 1st and my 11th Presidential election). We walked in - the clerk knows who we are - she hands us the ballot and we voted. Living in small town America has its advantages.
I am anxiously waiting for the results to start coming in!

GOOD FOR OBAMA.
Hell, who could blame him for that?

I could see why they would not those folks around. Definitely too polarizing of a group there.

My only question to the people of N.C. is
WHY?
She had been trailing for a while... she ranked pretty low in Senate effectiveness.
What finished her, if the projection holds, was a real dirty ad she ran last week which painted
her opponent Kay Hagen as an athiest. It was a classic low blow...and it apparently has backfired.

I know I promised not to do any name caiiling, but those people have GOT to be world class IDIOTS for ousting Sen. Dole.

Apologies if this sounds too cliché , Garry.....but you're seeing the times are a'changin' tonight
You're seeing the backlash of just how many others in America, including ME, despise George W. Bush

I get it. (I don't agree that people should HATE President Bush, but I GET it).
However, Elizabeth Dole ISN'T George W. Bush, nor is he on the ticket for any office.
When I see dweebs like AL FRANKEN getting elected, it just convinces me more and more that people are just voting for candidates only because of the "D" after their name and nothing else. VERY ignorant, and VERY uninformed.
HELL, I'm thinking of running as a Democrat from wherever. I'm sure to get elected if THAT'S the only qualification.
