But only 6 hours later than NC, and the polls close there at 6pm. If exit polls show a clear lead for Obama, it's over...

Europe, BTW, is 9 hours later than CA. You're confusing England with Europe.

Re: Question. I should get this right, right now. (none / 0)

Since I'm dealing with Europe, how many time zones am I dealing with, with Europe? Where does England's time zone fit in with things?

In the end, might makes right. Nothing has changed since the caveman.

Most of Europe is 6 hours ahead of the Eastern U.S. (to be really pedantic, will be when the U.S. goes on daylight saving time). The U.K, Ireland, and Portugal are only 5 hours ahead (not Spain, despite being mostly west of the U.K.). The countries east of Poland, as well as Greece and Finland, are 7 hours ahead.

Re: Thank You. (none / 0)

I'll bear that in mind from now on.

In the end, might makes right. Nothing has changed since the caveman.
