I'm not sure what part you are referring to. Example:
Right now, in Arizona, Bush has 55% of the popular vote whereas Kerry has 44%. These percentages were arrived at based on results from precincts in the state that have reported already and in Arizona, 71% of the precincts there have reported. I don't know much about the population in particular counties in Arizona or whether particular counties traditionally run dem or repub. But the stats also show what percent of precincts in each county have reported. So...if we DID have an idea of how populous the counties are (as we do in Florida it seems) and whether they are traditionally dem or not (as some seem to know here for Florida), then wouldn't you say the above stats are somewhat useful in giving somewhat of an idea how the final results could turn out? At least worth a look?
