great news. keep it coming.

[rushmom]

Do we know if this l3% represents Gop or Dem districts?

[deport]

Those ought to be easy to get counted..... with 2 hrs almost gone you'd think they'd be farther along... but when they start it may all happen within a few mintues....

It's usually around 10pm before most counties start posting the results. But me and my truck voted for Amy Tuck.

[afuturegovernor]

Amy Tuck was a conservative Democrat that changed parties. She is running against a black very liberal Democrat. She will win in a landslide. The Lt. Governor has been over for weeks.

Barbour is trying to knock off a moderate incumbent Democrat in Musgrove. Everybody pretty much knew this race was going to be closer than the Lt. Governor's race.

Look at post 617 - with 13% of precincts reporting, Haley leads 53-46%!

[clintonh8r]

55\44 Haley

[DeSoto]

The DeSoto web site is reporting 0% counted and 0 votes for anyone.

Huh?
Me? what? 8^)

[wylenetheconservative]

None from DeSoto, which is a large county and very GOP.

[X-FID]

I voted with a touch screen in Rankin County.

How many times, Elvis?

[Pubbie]

Is that seat held by an R or D?

[sboyd]

I wish I knew.

[afuturegovernor]

I sometimes would even see SUV's with Haley Barbour bumper stickers right next to a "Republicans for Jim Hood" sticker. I was hoping Newton would come out alright but it doesn't look that way now.
