I believe we should list New Mexico as a "white" state, as in "Undecided" until all the votes are counted.

I understood from Marci's email late yesterday that vote counting was finished here. Am I mistaken?

I must say, however, that I would much prefer being a white state!

If you add up all the "third party" votes, and add them to votes for Kerry/Edwards . . . oh, you don't want to know.
