Math-impaired

Apparently, Kerry has conceded the election. The evidence in the numbers is overwhelming. I'm looking at a 136 kvote margin in a state that has at most 155k provisional ballots and maybe 10k overseas absentee. When you compute how those uncounted ballots would have to break for Kerry, it's just inconceivable that Ohio would flip. And that's assuming that all 155k provisionals are valid, when in fact a substantial number will inevitably be tossed.

And yet CNN, ABC, and CBS still have not called Ohio for Bush. Kerry himself is calling Ohio for Bush! Those networks are very partisan, very bad at math, or both.

I particularly liked the headline and subtitle on CNN.com earlier today, before Kerry conceded:
