Missouri Election Results Live Thread 8/7/12

Missouri Secretary of State ^ | 8/7/12

[SoFloFreeper]

U. S. Senator (4 of 3,428 Precincts Reported)

Claire McCaskill DEM 598 38.9%

Todd Akin REP 232 15.1%

Jerry Beck REP 16 1.0%

Sarah Steelman REP 343 22.3%

John G. Brunner REP 300 19.5%

Being from the BigMO, McCaskill is only popular in STL and KC. Unfortunately, those regions are bigTimeLib lovers.

However, other than those locations, the rest of MO wants the lying Pelosi-JR gone.

I think Brunner will take it. Steelman, for many here, is too much of the RINO. Anyhow, whomever the rep may be, I feel confident that the evilWitch-ofMO will be gone this time. Just my thoughts from the Ozarks.

No major trending yet, at 2% results. Anybody know where the
early results are coming from?

Thanks.

If Steelman loses, all you will hear for days is that Sarah Palin lost. One loss does not a losing streak make.

[tennmountainman]

Still early with 4% reporting. Akin has taken lead.

Bump for later....

[Charles Henrickson]

I said earlier today that this would be a close race, possibly with all three ending up in the 25-35% range. I voted for Todd Akin, so that’s who I’m pulling for. But any of the three can beat ObamaClaire McCaskill in November.

[Clintonfatigued]

Here is how it’s going so far, with 175 of 3,428 precincts reporting:

Todd Akin 11,113
Sarah Steelman 10,506
John G. Brunner 10,448

[tennmountainman]

It is way to early (4%) to see a trend.
Steelman led with first results,
Brunner then led
Now Akin is leading.

It appears to be sea-sawing depending on where early votes are coming from. It is way to early to see a trend.

St L and KC are liberal strongholds. “Outstate Missouri”, i.e. the entire remainder of the state, doesn’t give a rip about St L or KC. In fact, thinks they are lost causes.

[fieldmarshaldj]

I endorsed Akin, so I hope he pulls it off.

[OneVike]

I voted for Todd Akin, so that’s who I’m pulling for.

Just curious, and I admit to my ignorance to Mo politics, but what is was your reasoning for not voting for Palin's choice?

[House Atreides]

TomGuy, are you getting these results from running an Excel program? The only other thing I’ve seen includes the Dem’s etc.

[MestaMachine]

I am paying attention, but honestly, any one of the top three would knock mccaskill into the stratosphere.

I am copying the HTML code (via Firfox’s view partial source) and pasting it in the FR posting box.

[Clintonfatigued]

As mentioned, Todd Akin would make a good Senator. So would John Brunner. I think that Sarah Steelman would be an even better one, but if Akin or Brunner wins, it’s not a problem, as long as McCaskill loses the general. The only issue difference between Akin and Steelman that I know of are some tort issues. Should be an interesting night.
