[0:01] Olsen, sir?
[0:02] Yeah.
[0:02] Yes, sir, Mr. President.
[0:03] Oh, Chuck, with regard, I am going to be leaving at 4.45, right?
[0:10] And I wondered if you would get the final updated figures and, you know, like the sheet that I've got of all the states.
[0:23] Just on the presidential, or would you like the presidential?
[0:25] Well, I think he's getting the others.
[0:27] I don't know this.
[0:28] Okay.
[0:29] I just want to see the presidential updated figures.
[0:31] The last figures I have are 138.
[0:34] Is that what you're...
[0:37] Here, I think that's right.
[0:38] 138, right.
[0:42] By that time, they should have some more figures, don't you think?
[0:45] I think we'll have some.
[0:46] They've been coming every hour.
[0:48] Most of them should begin to get all... Like you say, you've got...
[0:56] Idaho, Louisiana, a little out in Michigan.
[1:02] You've got absentees, which I had forgotten about in some states.
[1:06] That's got to make quite a difference.
[1:07] And the absentees have been running heavy for us.
[1:13] I completely forgot that, but that's a big element in a number of the states.
[1:21] We may have quite a few that will be straggling in over a week or two.
[1:25] Ten days, but I will, yes, sir, I'll have the 4 o'clock figures before you go, sir.
[1:31] Thank you.
