2 November 2010

[SE Mom]

Post what you're seeing, hearing in your district, county or state during the day and evening- anecdotal or otherwise!

GOTV!!!!!

[snowsislander]

The New York Times is now showing the current status as 20 Republican House seats as opposed to a mere 2 Democrat ones: http://elections.nytimes.com/2010/results/house.

Tuning in ...

LET’S ROLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Braak]

Anybody wonder if DU’s reached for the Valium yet?

[Tuxedo]

The fact that Haley hasn’t been called yet tells me the exit polls are screwy.

[goldstategop]

We can’t pick and choose what exit polls we like.

I already called FL for Rubio and Scott.

[joesjane]

How is Col West doing? I would love to see him win!

[TitansAFC]

What’s worrying me now is that all of the GOP strategists are saying Reid holds in NV, McMahon and O’Donnell lose, Boxer triumphs, and Manchin has beaten Raese.

Not only will we not take the Senate with numbers like that, but we might not get to 58.

Yikes! Hoping for better news as the night goes on.....

CNN calls every race for a RAT. Even though with 10% of the vote in or less.

[Calif Conservative]

RCP update

House - NO CHANGE so far (GOP 20, DEM 2 — all 22 are holds)

Senate: GOP +1 (Coates won Indiana - GOP pickup)

Gov: NO CHANGE (GOP 6 - DEM 7 — all 13 are holds)

-George

Nevada Secretary of State site Here, with Reid 0 and Angle 0 right now. From the site: "Results will be posted once polls close on Nov 2 and are tabulated."

[rodguy911]

Good catch, they are not yet in tears over on methnbc but soon. At CNN they have 2,487 people on the panel so every one gets at least one sound bite during the night.

Talk about completely ridiculous--never happen in talk radio only tv that is unwatchable.

[STARWISE]

LOL ...

She’s earned a different title,
which I shall keep to meself .. ;)

[mmichaels1970]

but what they’re posting online doesn’t make sense compared to what they are broadcasting

Doesn't make sense to me either. They list Portman-R (OH) as a Senate pickup, but he is a GOP hold. So somebody's typing fast and breathlessly over there or something.

[maggief]

Dammit ... Rove is on FNC.

[Shelayne]

They are scrolling false info, and we should all email them. Dolts!

[wvguy]

Perriello now ahead of Hurt in VA-5.

Virginia.gov site shows Hurt ahead 53% TO 44% with 46% of precincts reporting, as of this message. I could be wrong, check out the site.

Virginia's November 2, 2010 General and Special Elections Unofficial Results

[Coffee_drinker]

Sounds good ScottinVA, will keep praying for VA. Good to see you on FR!

[Williams]

So far, looks like we ae winning what we were supposed to win, losing the ones that were losing, and the close ones are close.

No great surprises yet.

From National Review:

House Race Roundup
November 2, 2010 7:58 P.M.
By Henry Olsen

So far, we have big GOP leads in most marginal districts with at least 15 percent of the vote in:

IN-2: Walorski up by 15.5.

IN-8: Buchson up by 14.

IN-9: Young up by 14.

VA-5: Hurt up by 10.

VA-9: Griffith up by 8.

The only marginal district the GOP is behind in is KY-6, where Chandler leads Barr by 5.5 percent with 60 percent in.

If the GOP wins five of these six, it will be on track for a 60-to-75-seat-pickup night.

PLEASE FOLKS WHEN POSTING ABOUT A CANDIDATE CAN YOU PLEASE POST THEIR AFFILIATION for us folks who are not acquainted with them in those particular states

...it is getting awfully confusing and scary!!

Agreed. We don't know if this is a good thing or not.

It would also be useful if people could tell us whether this was an upset or not.
