Early results look good for Dems

[2Xtreme21]

She had the lead on CNN. I think she'll regain it though as Kansas City and St. Louis have yet to be fully counted yet-- both Dem strongholds.

 

[daveshel]

Missouri and Virginia back and forth. Montana looks good.

WTF Talent still has a 48k vote lead. I don't know where people are pulling these numbers from. I've been on CNN and MSNBC (P in P) and on CNN's website for the past 2 hrs.

WEBB's lead will grow in VA if you see the precincts still not reported are in favor of Webb mostly.

Not sure where you guys read that mcCaskill had the lead....to me, looks like she is still behind about 48K. 30% uncounted though.

Webb now leads by about 2700, but we'll have to see if/how that changes.

CNN has McCaskill back in the lead by 14k w/ 80% reporting.

She's up now. 🙂

whoa! i guess some of the urban precincts just reported....?

Holy crap, could the democrats get both the house and the senate? Whoohoo!

 

[Vic]

The Senate looks to split 50-50 (which will give the Pubs the nominal majority). The Dems will gain a slight majority in the House.

The key message this election is that moderates win, extremists are out.

 

[Wreckem]

The entire city of Kansas City is yet to report, and the majority of St Louis has yet to report. McCaskill is looking like shes going to win.

The Dems have picked up 35 seats in the House so far. And its looking like a 51-49 Senate with the dems taking control. Its all going to come down to the protracted VA race, which Webb looks to win.

Webb saying "votes are in and we won" ...

Uh? You do realise it wasnt extremists that lost. Moderate republicans lost to moderate democrats. The only extremist to lose is Sanatorium(sp?).

Well hes up by 2700, and the majority of the votes yet to come in are from Fairfax County which is going 70/30 for him.

Saw that too. Hopefully she breaks away.

 

[EstimateMe]

Virginia - Webb appears to have won, will be recounted
Missouri - McCaskill could start to pull away once urban votes are in???
Montana - Burns camp saying some of the GOP heavy districts haven't been reported...

This is going to be down to the wire.

I'm not disagreeing with you, but CNN shows St. Louis is 92% reported, and Jackson county is 85% reported at this time.

WEwt. Governator's speech. Go Arnold! People who say my vote didn't count in CA, think again.

1A - 1E was endorsed by the governor.
83 passed
87 failed
89 failed

A lot of propositions the Dems pushed for totally lost, the others are NECK and NECK.

Edit: MO vote difference down another 5k to 15,000 ... Still damn close.

More of St Louis just reported, that was that last big spike for McCaskill. But almost none of Kansas City has reported.

Whoa, McCaskill climbed all the way back up. I have a feeling Talent won, but that looks like it could be a crazy race too.

It'll keep swinging back and forth. While Virginia may be the "it" race this cycle, Missouri is definitely the surprise.

I'm happy 87 and 89 failed. The last thing we need in CA is more taxes. Everyone seems to want more money and instead of balancing the budget they just think they can tax us more.

Arianna Huffington pisses me off to no end.

Ballot Measures

Most of the states that had the same-sex issuse have decided to ban it. The issuse to legalize Marijuana in Nevada and Colorado has failed. The stem cell issuse in Missouri appears to be undecided.

if the VA senate race is decided by less than 2,000 votes, I feel really bad for that independant canidate. lol.
