This district is where I grew up!

Cool! Although I've seen by your comments that this district has changed a lot over the years...

Brooklyn has got to keep their precinct counts down.... the RATs in Queens are slowing their precincts down, so they know how many more votes they need to fabricate.

All of NYC has changed a lot over the years. None of it for the good IMHO.

The Wisconsin GOP got smart and held back votes last time.

That needs to happen a lot in '12.

Long Island City is actually represented by Carolyn Maloney, believe it or not.

Well, we have to wait and see, but I think Turner is still ahead.

On the surface that is very encouraging.

Still doesn't tell us enough though unless we know which specific districts they are and their historical vote totals.

Still think AP is playing games with what numbers they are reporting.

And in Nevada, a poster on Twitter reports:

RT @redistrict: Not only have Dems lost #NY09 (and possibly by double digits), Kate Marshall (D) may not even come within 15 pts in #NV02...

236/512 precincts reporting

Weprin: 15,181 48%
Turner: 16,152 51%

The overall spread has been as close as @600 votes, but the latest results show it is back to a 1000 Turner advantage. Hope it holds.

At current trends, if voting percentages stay equal per borough, and each precinct has equal votes...

...Turner wins 54.6% to 45.4% (a 9 point spread).

(According to my spreadsheet.)

Yeah if things stay as they are he’ll win with a good margin.

Turner has rallied back in Queens, now down 51/49.

Posted a little earlier at AoSHQ:

759

Dave Wasserman of Cook Political Report:

I’ve seen enough, it’s done…now very comfortable making this projection: Bob Turner (R) defeats David Weprin (D) in #NY9

http://minx.cc/?blog=86&post=321309#c14689721

I looked for the source but I think it’s a paid site. It’s quoted at HuffPo but I didn’t want to give them a hit.
