5PM THE FINAL VOTE COUNTS WERE REVEALED ON CNN
FOR NEW MEXICO. THE PROVISIONAL WERE HAND COUNTED AND WERE MORE THAN 17,000.
TOTAL VOTES:149,779
OBAMA:71,396
CLINTON:73,105
EDWARDS: 2157
DODD:81
BIDEN:122
KUCINICH:571
RICHARDS:1305
COULD SOMEONE ELSE PLEASE ADD THESE NUMBERS AGAIN, I DID NOT GET 149,779 ?
( I GOT 148,737.... WHICH IS A DIFFERENCE OF 1042....and since there is a difference of 1709 votes)
Another Question: Does this include the Absentee Ballots ?

Your math is fine, so something else is wrong. I can only verify your counts for Obama & Clinton. Couldn't verify the others.
But I did see an interesting article in the Albuquerque Tribune today 2/14/08 that says the total of ALL ballots (incl regular, absentee & provisional) in NM is 157,354 -- not 149,779. The difference is 7,575. The Albuquerque Tribune says these are provisional ballots that won't be counted unless they are challenged by the campaigns. They are bundled & stacked & available for review. I don't have a clue what that's all about.
I am not surprised to see this in New Mexico.
After all, this is Bill Richardson's homestate and the buzz is, he's jockeying to be the Borg Queen's Veep if she doesn't give it to Wes Clark.
Oops, I let that one slip! *wink*
thanks DK...What a mess...
Hmmmm strange math skills indeed. They should call for an automatic recall & get their numbers together. We don't want no stinking fuzzy math from New Mexico.
Demand a recall-- if they get started now, they might be done in time fo the November elections!
