Hope for the best but expect the worst.
I am hoping that Brown pulls an upset. I expect that something will happen. It will magically be close as ‘absentee’ ballots come in. You’ll have amazing turn out. In some places, you’ll have twice the number of votes than there are registered voters.
If Coakley loses, I expect for 1. the secretary of state to find many excuses to delay certification or 2. find irregularities.
Notice how 150% turnout in heavily democRat precincts is never seen as an “irregularity”?
