Free Republic Rocks! | November 4, 2014

Posted on 11/04/2014 2:08:21 AM PST by RKBA Democrat

Happy Election Day everyone! I figured I'd go ahead and get the election day thread started. Polls open on the east coast in a little less than an hour.

Please be sure to post observations of interest if you went to the polls today.

This reinforces my proposal to kick Fairfax County out of the Commonwealth.

The butt-hurt in the media is palpable:

Rick Scott, who just two years ago was labeled the least popular governor in America, capped off a political comeback on Tuesday, convincing Floridians to give him another four years in office

As of this post time:

Senate: Republicans have locked up 47 seats, ahead in 4 more
Senate: Democrats have locked up 40 seats, ahead in 3 more

House: Republicans have locked up 194 seats, ahead in 24 more
House: Democrats have locked up 115 seats, ahead in 29 more

Governors: Republicans have locked up 22 seats, ahead in 9 more
Governors: Democrats have locked up 12 seats, ahead in 1 more


I would like to invite folks to use the Los Angeles Times Senate, House, and Nationwide State Gubantorial candidate breakdowns.  It's a fairly good indicator of where things are headed.

Note: Make sure ALL is selected.  Then you can click on Senate, House, or Governors

These categories show current wins and gains.
 (Ex: Republican = 44 +4 / Democrats = 38+2)  correction Note: + denotes leading in that many races in addition to already locked up

You’re probably right and it usually doesn’t look too good when a governor leaves office early.

DES MOINES, Iowa – Joni Ernst has been elected as the next U.S. Senator from Iowa. The Republican, a state Senator from Red Oak, defeated Democrat U.S. Representative Bruce Braley in one of the nation’s closest watched elections.

NPR called it for Shaheen a few hours ago...even had a byline about it on the net.

I hope Brown can still make it happen!

I’d like to see Cruz for President. He’s the most intelligent and principled person I’ve seen on the political stage in a very long time. (And I ain’t no ‘spring chick’.)

Oh yeah, for just a very few minutes I turned on the local Miami media....the pain was so evident on their faces.

Having been in the tank for Charlie Crist since he announced, they just don’t understand why voters said “no”.
