I’d say 55 or 54, depending on whether Tillis ekes out a win or whether the Liartarian throws it to Hagan.

MI indeed looks lost, such a shame, Land have everything going for her, WTH is she doing?

If I take the partisan out of me, I am realistically in the 52 to 53 seat range right now.

Georgia has been an unmitigated disaster. Perdue has been terrible against Nunn. Just plain awful. The Pubbie should be pulling away there. Instead, the most recent polls show Nunn up a tick.

I think Kansas has stabilized a bit and is going in the right way for Roberts, but it’s too close to call at this point. I do think Roberts ekes out a win.

The good guys have slight leads in Iowa and Colorado, which hopefully will stay.

Georgia has general election runoff, if no one get 50% (there’s a liartarian also in the race).

Nunn will not get 50%, so worst case there is a December runoff that will be will be very hard for her to win. Jim Marshall got killed in the runoff 6 years ago after holding Chambliss to under 50% in November.

Georgia has two possible runoffs this year. Statewide races have a runoff on December 2 per state law.

Federal runoff is January 6th because of the 45-day rule.

I do agree with you that Nunn is unlikely to reach 50-percent. The Losertarian should take 2-3 percent, but I don’t like being second going into that runoff.

Right, thanks.

That strikes me as pretty weird. Like NY having the state office primary on a different date than the federal office primary.

It wouldn't be pleasant waiting till January 6th (with the new Congress already in session) for Perdue to win. That's really a ridiculously late date, but we do want those soldiers to vote.

How come Louisiana gets to have it's federal runoff in early December, less than 45 days after the initial election?

From what I understand, they allow rank voting on their runoff absentees. Georgia doesn’t. I think the SOS added extra time to the 45-day period to allow for printing of the ballots.

“That strikes me as pretty weird. Like NY having the state office primary on a different date than the federal office primary.”


The reason is that that stupid UOCAVA applies only to federal elections, so the federal judge couldn’t force GA to move its runoffs for state elections.

“It wouldn’t be pleasant waiting till January 6th (with the new Congress already in session) for Perdue to win. That’s really a ridiculously late date, but we do want those soldiers to vote.”


If they set a freaking Election Day (as the Constitution dictates that Congress do), on which *everyone* who wants to cast a ballot has to vote (and on which date those voting absentee have to postmark the envelope in which they mail their vote), there wouldn’t be any problems with mailing, although we would need to wait 10 days or so for all absentee votes to arrive by mail. I hate early voting, no matter who does it. Here’s a good column by John Fund from yesterday noting the problems caused by having people vote on different days in the same election: http://www.nationalreview.com/article/390669/trouble-early-voting-john-fund

“How come Louisiana gets to have it’s federal runoff in early December, less than 45 days after the initial election?”


Because a different federal judge decided that case. Duh! : )
