The first precincts look like very conservtive ones.
No disrespect to anyone here, but I love being in a festive, live party atmosphere for election night, so that’s where I’m heading.
Best of luck to all good Democrats everywhere!!!!
Lunsford is outperforming Obama by almost 10%. He’s going to need to hold that and Obama’s going to have to push up to 40% with the liberal districts start reporting.
So what networks is everyone watching? The obvious choice for me in MSNBC. I’ll be sticking with them all night.
No not the Bolshevik Revolution.
That was the day McCain knew for sure he had lost.
Nearly half of Jefferson county is in and Lunsford has only a small lead thus far. He needs a big margin form Jefferson.
Has McConnell winning something like 54-46 which sounds about where we’re heading.
From CNN exit poll: Dems 55.5 Reps 42.5
A 13 point spread would mean a LOT of pickups.
We’re enjoying watching your liveblog here in the UK. Would you mind putting (R) or (D) after the names of the candidates you refer to above? I haven’t been following the Senate race but I’d like to get an idea of the general trend.
Cheers
CNN has projected Mark Warner to be the winner in the Virginia Senate race, with 0% of polls reporting in! Hah Hah
As well, the same projection, with 0%, from Vermont for Obama.
Boswell is doing significantly better than the 2006 Dem result in Marion and slightly better in Meade county. It’s going to be close.
but with 7% of precincts in, it’s Boswell with 57% to 43% for Guthrie.
Only 3% in but looking good.
Mahoney tied with 7% in for FL-16.
CNN exit polls put us up in NC-Gov, NC-Sen, has GA-Sen going to a runoff (very close) with Martin losing thanks to terrible performance among men.
Garcia and Diaz-Balart in a tie in FL-25 with over 100,000 votes in. Kosmas is cruising, Grayson also looking great for victory. Raul Martinez is far behind. I’m guessing those are all early votes, however. It will come down to election day turnout.
McConnell is underperforming in Eastern KY…He’s in deep trouble. Goode is not performing strong with his base and Keller is underperforming in Lake County. Keller and Goode are now headed for the door.
It’s Goode with 55 and Perriello with 45. Definitely Perriello can pull off an upset. He’s still got good areas to report.
Souder’s winning in Elkhart County. If he’s winning here then he’s back again.
All of the vote in so far is from Feeney’s home county Orange. Once my county Volusia starts rolling in Kosmas’s numbers will get even better.
Keller (FL-08) also looks likely to lose by a big margin, maybe double-digits.
In everything from congressional races to the Presidential race Orange County is coming through in a big way for Democrats. Obama is winning by a much bigger margin than Kerry did in 2004.
Earlier call than I expected.
It’s semi-official. Keller underperformed in Lake County and with 89% precincts reporting he’s only carrying 56% of the vote. Marion and Osceola have not reported yet Marion should be split even (at least) and Osceola favors Grayson. With 59% in Orange Co. Keller is getting hammered.
For Collins
Kosmas is beating Feeney in Seminole County. Hey Tom..you and Ric are pink slipped…2 down!!! Mario Diaz-Balart is next in line.
Hagen/Mc Connell
Goode is underperforming in his base. Danville and Martinsville are favoring Perriello and Charlottesville has yet to report. Another GOP “closet case” heading out the door.
If FOX called KY for McConnell then they are way ahead of themselves. Less than half of Jefferson Co. has reported, McConnell is losing Eastern Kentucky and if he doesn’t win strong in the Cincinnati suburbs then he may truly be gone.
Shaheen wins NH-Sen.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA BULL
Himes is ahead of Shays, but Bridgeport is the city reporting. Shays may actually win narrowly.
Either Florida has really spooked the media, or things are turning out much better than expected.
NH Obama
ZOMGZ!!!!111
DOWN WITH DOLE.
OK. that’s really exiting.
Fox has Senate +3 Dem – How giddy are Olberman and Maddow BTW- figured everyone else would be on MSNBC
Shays is behind in Stamford…This could be the end, especially if Norwalk also throws him behind.
McHenry is underperforming in Catawba County (his base). This could end up flipping!!
DANG RIGHT!

I can’t believe it…with 48% reporting Seminole County, FL is BLUE…wow!!!
Shays is now even with Himes in Norwalk and Stamford. It looks like Shays will pull it off. Most of Bridgeport has already reported and the remaining areas will favor Shays.
Come on Mitch…it’s basically even…just LOSE already!!
NC-05 21% in 54-46 foxx (r)
NC-08 04% in 59-41 kissell (d)
NC-10 34% in 55-45 mchenry (r)
CNN calls it for Nixon!
Souder appears to have survived and Shea-Porter is also surviving.
Down 52-46 with nearly 200,000 votes in.
Just thought I’d let that sink in for a bit 🙂
I’ve got McC by 11K @ 51% from the courier-journal
Shea-Porter up 58-40 with 27% in.
Robinson is ahead of Tiberi. He’s performing strong in Franklin County which is what he needed to do. Surprise upset possible here.
AZ-Pres CNN exit poll has McCain winning there by only 1 point. Hope that’s accurate.
Are coming in more and more.
Bobby Bright leading 63-37 with 2%
They pulled Ohio back off the table and admitted mistake.
Charlottesville hasn’t reported anything. Perriello still has good places out.
16,500 lead for McC @ Courier-Journal
Looks like Jim Marshall has survived.
Right now, Fleming and Obama are performing better than Musgrove with 1% in.
These are most likely considerably African-American precincts, and I don’t think there’s any chance Musgrove can win now, if he’s underperforming so much among African-Americans.
Most of the democratic strongholds of Broward and Miami-Dade have not reported.
Marion has still to report a few precincts and Monroe has yet to report much. Lake has reported very little and Porter and LaPorte are reporting less than 50%. Obama has a chance, yet McCain may win by a very narrow margin.
KY-Sen called against us
also, VA SoS site is REALLY slow.
58-42 with 29% in.
First areas reporting are favorable to Nutcraker Harris. Looks like the Eastern Shore will give this to Kratovil. Harris and his Club for Growth aren’t winning in the end.

Fox called OH for Obama for good and does project a 50% Saxby win in GA
She’s losing Hamilton Co. Big problem for her.
Alabama 03
Segall 23,048 65%
Rogers(Incumbent) 12,663 35%
13% of precincts reporting
So how did every polling firm get Georgia so wrong. Pres already called, Senate apparently not close, house seats staying where they were….
If Rogers loses Calhoun County then he’s in trouble.
Making it almost impossible for McCain to win this thing.
Thelma Drake trailing by 4% with 37% in. Could be an upset brewing here.
at the moment because Lee and Russell is going insanely for Democrat for now… hopefully this trend will go on in these two.
He’s up 50-44.
They called it since he took the Cincinnati suburbs strong. Had he not he would have been in trouble. The southwest part of the state (Owensboro) will not report very friendly.
That’s the key. Big turnout there for Obama/Lunsford is all important.
Why did MSNBC call VA-05 for Goode when we’re winning?
Anybody else see where DavidNYC is getting VA-05 data from, I see different data on CNN and CNN already called it for Goode. Weird…
Can somebody tell me why we are behind by double digits in the 3rd and also trailing in the 7th?
Most of those 35K were hippies and commies. They don’t count.
Clermont County, one of her strongholds, has her under 50%. A third party candidate is helping us defeat Schmidt.
were undoubtedly socialists and anti-americans and elitists…
They’ve got 200-90 in pres race where CBS has 194-124. I’ve been watching the ghouls on FOX for this entire election cycle I want to see the life in Bill Kristol’s eyes die. Just the fact that they are even considering that the nation has switched to center-left from center-right makes me want to break out the last of my good whiskey. Hope beats division decisively I never thought I’d see the day again.
Very close and Judy Biggert is struggling in suburban Chicago.
Parker Griffith is underperforming in Limestone and Madison counties. This race may be a Dem Loss.
How’s that going at the moment?
Griffith is finally leading in Madison County
When beford and campbell county come in. its down to the wire.
Yes she is GONE
Chris Shays LOST. New England no longer has any Republicans remaining in the House.
She’s struggling in Illinois…Oh my!!!
Obama is close in Polk County and we’re close to pulling off a huge upset for state house seat 65.
This is just so frustrating…
Just when AL-05 surges up, AL-03 is going back to Rogers…
I had really hoped for a sweep for all three.
Landrieu is barely ahead with 50% reporting and Cazayoux is behind somewhat big.
We’re going to lose FL state House district 9. It’s an extremely democratic district, but republicans got for NFL superstar Peter Boulware to run.
Shays was defeated. Gerlach is behind. Biggert is struggling. Kanjorski has also fell slightly behind.
Goode was called victor and yet it has now been undone. Perriello is now winning narrowly.
From CNN:
Hanna (R) 81,432 52%
Arcuri (D) 76,294 48%
78% of precincts reporting
It’s the same way on MSNBC. I didn’t even know this race was in play.
Congrats to everyone who worked to flip NC-08. I deserve any “I told you so”, so let me have it! I’m glad to be wrong.
Looks like he’s gone. Michael Jackson is taking 7% of the vote. Landrieu is also in a tight race, yet Orleans has not reported completely.
Adler just made his victory speech. Carried Burlington County so much that the Dems won all county races – a major upset.
It’s narrowed and the remaining counties favor Adler. Hope Myers the radical doesn’t win.
Franken is not carrying the counties along the Dakota borders. This presents a serious problem.
The first precincts look like very conservtive ones.
No disrespect to anyone here, but I love being in a festive, live party atmosphere for election night, so that’s where I’m heading.

That was the day McCain knew for sure he had lost.
Both candidates were in Albuqueque that day.
Almost 1000 attended McCain’s rally.
Obama drew at least 35-40k.
Race doesn’t matter. This is how I see the candidates. http://www.godlikeproductions….
42% of the vote in:
John Yarmuth D 78,331 57.0%
Anne M. Northup R 59,104 43.0%
Nearly half of Jefferson county is in and Lunsford has only a small lead thus far. He needs a big margin form Jefferson.
