They’ve called Nevada now as well. Back to 242, that makes me happy.

At current trends, if voting percentages stay equal per borough, and each precinct has equal votes...

...Turner wins 56% to 44% (a 12 point spread).

(According to my spreadsheet.)

86% of Queens has reported in, but Brooklyn still has half of its crushing anti-Obama vote left to come in!

If these trends keep up, this will be twice as bad as the surprise upset polls from last week predicted! And that trend is getting firmer by the minute!

Yep. Great night for us all.

From WNYC correspondent Yasmeen Khan

Turner has his whole family on stage and is giving a victory speech

12:08 AM

After giving the briefest of comments, Weprin headed straight for the door. Turner’s victory speech is playing on the television as Weprin supporters followed Weprin’s lead.

12:07 AM

From WNYC correspondent Yasmeen Khan

Bob Turner, congressman, is introduced. Frank Sinatra’s “New York, New York”is playing.

12:06 AM

Weprin arrived, gave a speech, said there were still thousands of ballots to count. He did not concede.

That is really cool. Are there family notes in it?

Not too many other than names and dates.

Her twin sister just appeared in NV-02.

I understand she's scheduled a performance at the White House for the evening of 11/06/12.

“Now...if only congressional Republicans will take notice of these great victories and stop caving into Obama’s taxing and spending schemes.”

It's time again for All of us to send the above message to all Republicans, by phone, letter, WHATEVER, and tell them victories CAN be won....tell them to strap on a pair and stand up, speak out and tell obama to peddle his socialist/marxist/communist/fascist crapola somewhere else. WE ARE AMERICANS, and we don't take crap from any one.

And then proceed to kick his azz out or OUR White House in November. Let's remember Todd Beamer and let's roll!

From Chicago, a corrupt, socialist hellhole if ever there was, thank you everyone for voting in a win. God bless us all.

“Weprin arrived, gave a speech, said there were still thousands of ballots to count. He did not concede.”

...But they said they were going to fix this one so I could win.

What do you expect from leftists..hopefully more Jews will wake up and see what the left wing is really all about. My Mom is a registered Dem(But for years since 2000 has voted Republican), when I told her about tonight’s race she said “It’s because Obama is a piece of crap” LOL..my family immigrated from Israel in the early 60s and I dont know why but automatically they became registered Dems, I guess at that time when you came here and were Jewish you were automatically a Dem
