CNN Calls Gov. Race For Rick Scott

My understanding is there are some counties the Alex Sink campaign wanted to count. What hurts Team Sink is CNN declaring Rick Scott the winner.

At 10:00 PM, Scott was ahead of Sink 55 perecent to 43 percent. I had a feeling Marco Rubio was going to bring out a lot of Republican voters. Republican turnout would help Scott, but a 12 point difference? I say that because polls had the race as a toss up and Scott's negatives are high. I am not questioning that the current political environment favors Republican candidates. It is just hard to believe Scott could win by over ten points. If he does then the Florida Democratic Party blew it with their star candidate.

Eric Jotkoff fired off this statement.

"The race is razor tight and over 1,200 precincts have not been reported. We are confident that once all the votes have been counted Alex Sink will be the next Governor of Florida," Eric Jotkoff, Florida Democratic Party spokesman said.

Let's make this very clear. Alex Sink has not conceded and wants all the votes counted. CNN wanted to declare a winner while people were still awake. I had questions about the numbers. I find it hard to believe Scott is beating Sink by 12 percent. After the votes are counted we will find out how good or bad Sink's night was.
