Some too close to call yet:

Rubio(R) has a 2 % lead atm
NH and Georgia has way too foo returns yet to judge(NH the vote is 7 to 5 votes)

 

[Redress]

Portman projected to win Ohio

 

[Redress]

Interesting note that CBS News just twitted: Among men, republicans have a 12 % lead in exit polling, among women dems have a 1 % lead.

I am pretty sure the Democrat that is the incumbent in my old district in SC is going to lose tonight. He was a pretty nice guy. Had a few lunches of me when I was in my internship in DC.

Top Dems ‘anxious’ about early numbers – CNN Political Ticker - CNN.com Blogs

Senior Democratic officials with close ties to the White House say that after seeing a first wave of early exit polling data late in the afternoon they have concerns about how the party is doing with several key groups, including women and senior citizens.

Not looking good for us dems so far.

By the way, feel free to post in this thread with your comments, that is what t is here for.

Were you the meat or the bread? :tongue4:

 

[ARealConservative]

it looks like Reid will hang on unfortunately,

 

[Grim17]

Fox News just called Florida for Rubio, and Coons for Delaware.

But those were pretty easy ones

Well played, point to you. This is what I get for talking in class while typing on the computer.

 

[soccerboy22]

Because of the baffling move nominating Angle instead of some one who would definitely take the seat from him...

Keep these coming too in case I miss one. Got workers here at house, so getting distracted at times. Think I am up to date on senate in OP, updating house and govs now.

So far, there have been no surprises in the senate races. They've called some more, and I'll try to post them in a bit.

 

[Redress]

Added Shelby and Mikulski as projected winners.

 

[Zyphlin]

Random note about the coverage....

The guy on fox talking about whose winning what seats in front of the big video screen just acknowledged the Tea Party began as a grass roots movement in support of Ron Paul. Neat

 

[Redress]

Added Isakson.

 

[soccerboy22]

We have two TVs. One on CNN and another on MSNBC. We are getting a third for Fox. It is so freaking hard to understand what people are saying with three different channels going at the same time...

 

[Grim17]

Fox News has called in the senate races:

Ayotte (R) in New Hampshire
Isakson (R) in Georgia
Mikulski (D) in Maryland
DeMint (R) in South Carolina

 

[Redress]

Think I got all those Grim, and NBC is calling Coons in Delaware, which I think we all knew was going to happen.

 

[Grim17]

I'm just going to post them... Takes too long to back-track.

 

[Redress]

Please do keep posting them.

 

[CriticalThought]

Just a reminder that the average midterm turnover is 28 seats in the House and 4 seats in the Senate. Determining how well Republicans did will be by how much more than that they get.

 

[Grim17]

Polls close in 10 states in 10 minutes

 

[Redress]

Burr(R) in NC projected to win.
