Well, we moved out here for a house so my mother could move in down stairs. Big mistake.

Now we’re stuck here.

For now.

I’d be inclined to move to western NC if we moved.

Martin netted about 300,000 votes in the three big dem counties on the 4th. He’ll be lucky to net 150,000 from those same counties. Not nearly enough votes for him to catch Chambliss. Chambliss wins.

Those too but there was a dollar beer night at the local “save the whales”/”save the polar cap”/”live on love and peace” meeting tonight.

[RobFromGa]

thanks Jeff for all the results you are posting. I got called away unexpectedly. I still plan to come meet you in Idaho one of these days!

They’re going to lose this one...and hopefully beyond any hope of a recount.

I stole it from Boortz

A**hole Al Franken is apparently trying to make it a Saturday Night Live skit. What a travesty if that joke makes it to the Senate.

[RobFromGa]

Palin’s appearances for Chambliss were all very well received! She is a great conservative...

[editor-surveyor]

"Dem areas are always last. That way they can synthesize as many votes as possible"

Precisely my thoughts.

Martin getting the crap kicked out of him in Cherokee county, 82% to 18% 32000 to 6,000

[traderrob6]

Where is DOUGHERTY cty? I thought it was rural but it’s going heavily to Martin.

[Jeff Head]

67% reporting.

2/3rds REPORTING AND STILL A BLOW-OUT LEAD FOR CHAMBLIS

Chambliss (R) - 60.8% (833,953)
Martin (D) - 39.2% (538,010)

295,000 lead

[MrPiper]

These results must not include ACORN voters!!!!!!!!!!! This can not stand!!!!! I have 5000 voters that were unable to vote due to drug withdrawal. Another 50,000 that had to renew VISA’s>>> THIS MUST NOT HAPPEN!!!/s

[TNCMAXQ]

Apparently having Obama on the ballot brought out a bigger Demo turnout 28 days ago. Makes you wonder if some other Dem, like HRC, had been their nominee, would Dems not have made such sweeping gains in Congress.

[mimaw]

AP has called it for Saxby

[Principled]

Agreed - Chambliss will win tonight. By how much is the only question now....

[Jeff Head]

Come on...mat’s out and door’s open!

[bereanway]

If the 2,000,000 total turnout prediction is correct at the 64% precint report Martin would have to get 500,000 of the final 700,000 votes counted. Hard to believe he could pull that off even with some healthy fraud.
