Fox calling race for Cardin

[Jim Noble]

Here's one, local NBC affiliate just called RI Senate for Sheldon Whitehouse (d)

If Chaffee lost, I'm glad.

[Howlin]

Fox says Steele lost?

[nutmeg]

FNC and CNN saying Steele is defeated! BARF

MD - U.S. Senate

[kellynch]

Brit just called MD for Cardin. Damn.

[ican'tbelieveit]

Fox News radio may be behind, I just heard them report that Menendez has won NJ.

[right-wingin_It]

Allen just took a big hit somewhere

See #1251

And before anyone thinks meyer made a mistake, I can assure you, Philly is sufficiently corrupt to affect the election in Virginia.

LOL - what was I thinking? Wrong state, but certainly the right idea. Name a large city in Virginia and the effect applies!

[cyborg]

No you didn't. It's a nice departure from the election discussion. I'm tired of it so I'm watching a special on volcanoes on History Channel.

[newnhdad]

Fox just called MD for cardin with less than 1% in..

[tsmith130]

Get this: Cardin 44% Steele 55% BUT

Fox is projecting Carding the winner! WTF?

[MikefromOhio]

Fox Calls Maryland for Cardin....

[mwl1]

The House is lost. Losing the Senate would be the disaster. Judges!

[Peach]

What?????????

FNC has Cardin winning with a checkmark by his name but he has 44% of the vote and Steele has 55%.

[Blogger]

With 1% reporting and blacks crossing lines? How can they say that!

[tfecw]

Allen just took a big hit somewhere

Arlington county just chimed in with another 40% of their districts reporting....They have 18% to go in a district that has a surprisingly high turn out (46+ percent of registered voters so far) Time to move from beer to liquor….

[romanesq]

FNC calling Maryland for Cardin at 1% of vote. Ugh.

I think 30% was the magic minority vote for Steele. Not enough?
