Obama wins Guam

I bet you didn't know that Guam casts votes for President. It's the only external U.S. territory to do so. Guam ultimately has no effect on the outcome, for it has no electoral votes, but its voters are U.S. citizens.

Guam however is a bellwether. For decades, whoever won Guam was the official winner nationwide. (I have to make a distinction between official and unofficial, thanks to the last 2 presidential elections being stolen nationally.) Lately though, Guam has gone well right of center: Bush won it almost 2-to-1 in 2004.

But now Obama has carried Guam by about the same margin the Decider won it last time.

This could be a very, very, very, very, very excruciating night for the GOPstapo.
