as of now, NH is the only state that's flipped parties since 2000... (NH flipped to a DEM governor too).
a new record turnout was achieved this election, and bush now has more votes than any candidate ever (previously set by ronald reagan in a 1980 landslide)... I don't think he's gotten the highest % of votes compared to total population, but still a huge feat (especially considering he lost the popular vote last time).
this is also the best voter turnout (percentage-wise) compared to total population since the 1960s.
looking like vote turnout is going to be in the 115-120million range or so, which is a pretty big increase...
