33% Yes vs 67% NO and I wonder how many votes are being switched by these f***ing e-voting machines. We are now at 37% vs 63%. These MF's are clearly trying to steal this thing.

3. The "No" margin is huge, and it will be hard to overcome.
I don't get why you're worrying now.

I suspect rather strongly that it will lose.

8. Try to relax.
We cannot affect the vote now...

It will likely go back and forth before the night is over...

10. lol... Your right, but still worried cause this means "everything" to the 99'ers.
If these shit heads were able to steal it, the 99% would be screwed, and that's my worry.

13. I know what it is.
That was my sly way of telling you that I think you should've included a link or something in your original post. Thanks. ;)

9. This means that we did a better job of getting our supporters
to early vote - that is what the first reports are... the early votes...

I'm not watching the returns county per county - but normally rural/small counties report first after the early votes... and the rural counties trend republican.

I was watching the rural very conservative county next door's boe results - the early votes showed Issue 2 failing by a bit larger margin then now with almost 50% of precincts reporting. We're still winning but it is close in this county - if it is close in that one... we won big statewide.

11. No need to worry....
From what the local news said, the first precincts reporting were from Cuyahoga County which is the bluest County in Ohio.

We'll win.
