There are already a couple of LIVE THREADS covering the overall PA primary election. But I don't see anything out there for the Arkansas, Kentucky and Oregon folks so we are going to post our normal live thread focusing on the Key House Races. In this weeks Primary Elections we see 2 competitive House Races in AR and 9 in PA. Plus there is the Special Election in PA-12 that we have been following. There is nothing looking very competitive to us in OR or KY.
So if you are just interested in how things are going across the board in PA here are the ongoing PA LIVE THREADS"

I’m with you, Bray.
The results do not look “legitimate.”
Not “this election season.”
keep readin, I’m 4 beers into it and laid a few more
and thanks BTW
I am glad that Arlen Spector went down tonight. This sad piece of humanity only cares about himself, not his country, not his voters, not freedom, only political power and control, just like failure POTUS Obama who threw Spector under the bus, seeing that he was going down in flames. Ah, yes, birds of a feather flock together. There might be hope for America yet. Not a bad night for the good folks, even if Burns does not win his race, he made it close. And....November is just around the corner!!!
Your predictions were darn close, Smooth.

:( Very sad.
There are no conservative Democrats. Guess the voters in PA-12 haven't learned that yet.
Well, you betcha, we care! Everyone wants to see Arlen’s fall from grace.
Shame on all the cables for not carrying his demise and speech.
I wish I would have done better on this one... &2% in...

GOOD on you! I saw a clip of her today with her VA doctor and kids following along with her.
The people voting in Murthas district are idiots.
LOL. Oh yeah, you betcha, I remember that. Classic Snarlin Arlen!
Specter got snarky with Michelle Bachmann - a sitting US Congresswoman! I’m sure, if he had the chance, he’d be snarky with Laura Ingraham too!
Make that 72% in. Now we have the worst outcome that Col. Russell warned about. Burns loses to Critz, wins the primary, and has to face Critz again in 5 months in the General Election. Gleason should be run out of town on a rail.
Yeah, all those state wide districts in the single house district, eh?
NM, you’re right.
While all we Freepers celebrate the last of snarlin’ Arlen, I think this might be a false, empty celebration and a bit premature...
Sestak is certifiable but he is an unrepentent lib who has no problem bending the truth for his own benefit...he makes Schumer look lucid...and with the union goons, Obamanator, Soros, ad nauseum, we might have a huge nightmare in the Senate for six very long years...I trust the voters of PA to screw us all happily...look at PA-12...BOHICA, folks....
PA - 13th Congressional District - numbers have shifted around as more votes have come in from Montgomery County. With 75% counted, we have Adcock at 40%, Haughton at 34%, and Quinter at 26%. It will be interesting to hear from Dirtboy later on, since he’s involved with the Adcock campaign. I’m sure they’re having an interesting night of it.
