Most people are aware now that Governor Gary Johnson received over 1% of the vote, including over 1.1 million raw votes. However, it has been harder to find information about the Presidential candidates who did not perform as well. 
 
 Jill Stein currently has 396, 684 votes–she is expected to clear 400k easily once all votes are in, including write-ins. 
 
 Virgil Goode currently has 108,195 votes–he is expected to clear 115k votes in total, including write-ins. That number could go as high as 130k. 
 
 Roseanne Barr, without any write-in votes included, has polled 49,412 votes, which will likely be good enough for sixth place. With write-ins and remaining votes to be counted, Barr is expected to get over 50k. 
 
 Rocky Anderson’s vote total currently stands at 34,521. With remaining votes and write-ins, he might reach 40k. 
 
 Thomas Hoefling scored 28,593 votes so far, with 94.6% of those votes coming from California. 
 
 So far, no other candidate has received more than 15k votes. All of this information is from Google (except Goode’s numbers), so it should be taken with a grain of salt. These are not final numbers. Richard Winger suspects as many as 8% of votes are left to be counted. ||||| The final minutes of turning absentee ballots at Miami-Dade election headquarters. Staffers scrambled to check in as many outstanding ballots as they could before the 7 pm deadline. 
 
 The Miami-Dade Elections Department is counting absentee ballots a day after the election. They hope to finish today. 
 
 Dont expect election results from Miami-Dade County anytime soon. 
 
 The countys beleaguered elections supervisor told reporters Wednesday night that her employees, still processing thousands of absentee ballots, wont finish until Thursday. 
 
 Supervisor Penelope Townsley acknowledged that mistakes had been made in the elections process, according to Miami Herald news partner WFOR-CBS4. She spoke after another day during which elections workers fed thousands of pages of ballots into scanning machines. 
 
 With the presidential race settled  but Florida still too close to call  Miami-Dades lack of final results have left a much-mocked blank spot on the long-decided electoral map. 
 
 Earlier Wednesday, the county had said 20,000 absentee ballots still needed to be counted. The office of Miami-Dade Mayor Carlos Gimenez issued a news release insisting that the unprecedented length of the ballot represents over 100,000 pages that need to be reviewed and verified, one by one. 
 
 This in no way is representative of any issues or delays, but a matter of unprecedented volume, the release said, noting that the countys canvassing board is continuing to examine suspect absentee ballots. 
 
 Overall, President Barack Obama had more than 61 percent of the vote in Miami-Dade, or 521,329 votes, while Mitt Romney had 317,382, or 37.6 percent, according to the election departments website. The county was plagued Tuesday by embarrassing delays and long lines preventing the state to be called for Obama or Romney. 
 
 Deputy Elections Supervisor Christina White insisted Wednesday morning that an unusually long ballot and high voter turnout, which was 64 percent, was to blame, not a lack of resources. 
 
 Its not that there were any problems or glitches, White told reporters. Its about volume and paper left to be processed. 
 
 Miami-Dade elections staffers worked overnight Tuesday and through Wednesday to count some 30,000 absentee ballots that had been dropped off or mailed to the Doral headquarters and county government center in downtown Miami at the last minute. The ballots had to be turned in by 7 p.m. Tuesday to be eligible for counting. 
 
 Teams of staffers counted 10,000 overnight, but still had another 20,000 to review Wednesday afternoon at the Doral headquarters. 
 
 The process is slow and tedious. To start, a dozen elections staffers must electronically compare images of voters signatures on absentee ballots with the signatures on the voters registration cards. Then the workers must determine whether the ballots have been properly filled out before counting them in scanning machines. 
 
 If staffers reject any ballots, they set them aside for the Miami-Dade canvassing board to make the final call. The board, sitting in an adjacent room, consists of the chair, County Judge Shelley Kravitz, County Judge Andrew Hague, and the county supervisor of elections, Penelope Townsley. 
 
 The elections office must also count all provisional ballots by 5 p.m. Thursday. White said she did not know the total number of provisional ballots. 
 
 Obama wont lose the lead in Miami-Dade, where his campaign had a massive grass-roots operation. But how the final batch of ballots affects the overall number in Florida remains to be seen  Obama leads by just over 46,000, according to the state election departments most recent numbers. 
 
 The race could still be close enough to trigger a recount in Florida, unless it is waived by Romney, who lost the overall election to the president. 
 
 On Wednesday afternoon, the total difference between the candidates hovered just above the .5 percentage point needed to trigger a recount as the final absentee and early voting numbers trickled in across the state. With such a razor-thin margin, no media outlets had called Florida for Obama or Romney. 
 
 Overall in Florida, at least 8,307,749 voters cast ballots for president, just under the number cast in 2008, when Obama won handily. 
 
 In Miami-Dade, so far, it appears the number of voters who cast ballots for president will be just shy of the 864,636 who did so four years ago. 
 
 Lines were so long in some polling places here that the last voter did not leave the West Kendall Regional Library until a few minutes after 1 a.m. 
 
 When polls officially closed at 7 p.m. hundreds of people were still waiting to cast ballots in precincts around South Florida, in an election that was marked by long lines and the occasional problem. Even after the networks called the race for President Obama, people in South Florida remained in line. 
 
 Voters complained that many stations lacked enough poll workers, scanning machines and privacy booths to address the crowds. Dozens of workers were diverted from closed polling places to others that faced daunting queues, and 150 extra optical scanners were distributed throughout the day. 
 
 This article will be updated as more information becomes available. ||||| The results still aren't official, but it looks like President Obama can put Florida's 29 electoral votes in his column. 
 
 Though, in the end it didn't really matter.

 Obama delcared victory early Wednesday morning, several hours after the polls closed and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney had conceded on national television. But Florida remained up for grabs. 
 
 As of Thursday afternoon, Broward, Duval and Palm Beach Counties were still counting absentee votes. Miami-Dade finished earlier in the day and with their votes Obama leads 4,185,616 to 4,127,520. With that news, and the knowledge that most of the uncounted votes are in Democratic heavy areas, Democrats delcared victory. 
 
 Said Democratic Party Chair Rod Smith: "Florida Democrats ran the strongest, largest ground game this state has ever seen: out-registering Republicans for 8 consecutive months, cutting the GOP's historical absentee ballot advantage in half, requesting over a million Democratic absentee ballots for the first time in history, and out-pacing Republicans during every day of early voting, and this hard work has paid off." 
 
 Romney Florida advisor Brett Doster also told the Miami Herald that the Romney camp was conceding Florida. 
 
 Now, state officials are just sitting and waiting for the official results to come in. Broward, Duval and Palm Beach continue to count – Broward had 8,000 left at 4 p.m. – and canvassing boards also began to meet to consider provisional ballots and questionable absentee votes. 
 
 "We are trying to work as fast as we can," Palm Beach County Supervisor of Elections Susan Bucher said Wednesday. 
 
 Unofficial results are due to the Department of State by noon Saturday. The state will certify the results on Nov. 20. 
 
 But many Floridians are wondering what led to the election day snafus. 
 
 There were no hanging chads or butterfly ballots this time. Not even any major glitches. 
 
 In contrast, even Hawaii, which is five hours behind Florida, was able to call the state right after 6 p.m. local time when the polls closed. 
 
 The fact that Florida can't call the state yet for either Obama or former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, who has officially conceded, has put us once again in the political spotlight, and made the state the butt of national jokes. 
 
 More seriously, the images of long lines of Floridians waiting to vote have given Democrats and voting rights groups a platform to attack Republicans for changes they made in a 2011 election law that shortened the number of early voting days from 14 to eight. 
 
 Leading up to the election, Florida was already getting lots of attention. 
 
 Images of long, long lines of people in South Florida waiting to cast ballots during early voting dominated the airwaves. Many voters in Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties reported waiting several hours. That continued on Election Day with some voters in Miami not getting done at the polls until about 1:30 a.m. 
 
 Even Obama seemed to have noticed, making an apparent jab at Florida in his acceptance speech early Wednesday morning. 
 
 "I want to thank every American who participated in this election whether you voted for the very first time or waited in line for a very long time," he said. "By the way, we have to fix that." 
 
 And the president is not the only one saying that. 
 
 Gov. Rick Scott, when questioned last week about the long voter lines, said that seeing so many people turn out to do their civic duty was "exciting." ||||| Though votes are still being tallied, President Obama is all but assured a victory in Florida because the lions share of the outstanding ballots come from Democratic-heavy counties. 
 
 Obama leads Republican Mitt Romney by 58,055 votes  or 49.92 percent to 49.22  but there just arent enough votes from Republican areas to allow the challenger to catch up. 
 
 Romneys Florida campaign has acknowledged their candidate lost in Florida as well. Romney already conceded the national race after he lost the other battleground states. 
 
 The numbers in Florida show this was winnable, Brett Doster, Florida advisor for Romney, said in a statement to The Miami Herald. We thought based on our polling and range of organization that we had done what we needed to win. Obviously, we didnt, and for that I and every other operative in Florida has a sick feeling that we left something on the table. I can assure you this wont happen again. 
 
 With Floridas 29 Electoral College votes, Obama will have 332 votes to Romneys 206. 
 
 We feel we will be the official winner in Florida later [Thursday], Obama campaign manager Jim Messina said. Preliminary results are due from the counties to the state by noon Saturday. The final results are to be certified Nov. 20. 
 
 The numbers in Florida look unlikely to change in Romneys favor. 
 
 Miami-Dade finished tallying a backlog of 54,000 absentee ballots Thursday and it marginally increased Obamas lead. 
 
 Still outstanding: 
 
 • Broward County. It has about 8,000 absentee ballots outstanding. Obama won Broward 67-32 percent. If those numbers hold, it would give Obama 2,800 more votes. 
 
 • Palm Beach County. It could have as many as 8,000 votes yet to add to its tally. Obama won that county 58-41 percent. If those numbers hold, Obama would pick up another 1,360 more votes. 
 
 • Duval County. The only non-South Florida County, Duval has about 3,600 absentee ballots to be counted. Romney won it narrowly, 51-48 percent. At that rate, Romney would pick up only 108 more votes. 
 
 Even if the estimates from South Florida were reversed and Obamas extra projected votes were handed to Romney, the Republican would come nowhere near to winning. 
 
 The wild card: Provisional ballots. These are cast by voters whose status is in doubt. Often theyre rejected, in part because people vote in the wrong precinct. Most studies show, however, that provisional ballots are more likely to be cast by Democrats than Republicans. Meanwhile, Thursday night The White House released a video of Obama tearing-up as he thanked young supporters in Chicago after his victory. "I am absolutely confident that all of you are going to do amazing things in your lives," Obama says in the video, which was posted on his campaign's official Youtube page.
– Not a bad result for Roseanne Barr: Only five people finished ahead of her in this year's presidential election, notes the Independent Political Report. The comedian ran on the pro-pot Peace and Freedom ticket and drew more than 49,500 votes, according to PBS election results. That puts her in sixth, behind Obama (61 million), Romney (58 million), Gary Johnson (1.2 million), Jill Stein (410,000), and Virgil Goode (115,000). Note: an earlier version of this file based on Google's election results said she placed fifth, but those results left out Goode.) MyFox Tampa Bay notes that Barr drew about 8,000 votes in Florida, which, by the way, remains too close to call for either Obama or Romney. (Don't hold your breath for a result tonight—the Miami Herald says votes in Miami-Dade won't be fully counted until tomorrow.) No hard feelings from Roseanne, though. She tweeted congratulations to President Obama, notes the Huffington Post.
