[EL] popular and electoral vote counts; turnout down in 2012

[Mark Rush]

Interesting points.

Obama's margin over Romney is about the same as Bush over Kerry in 2004.
Only difference is the electoral college.

Obama dropped from 66 million votes in 2008 to 60 million in 2012.  The GOP
vote, at last count that I saw, is down about a million.

This is a reason to celebrate...barely.
