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.
You’re right, I think I messed it up, and it doesn’t look good.
Here’s the latest I can find:
CO Governor...91.8% reporting:
Beauprez - 47.5% 870,049
Hickenlooper - 48% 878,078
What a stain on an otherwise good night.
Thanks.
GOP win NY State Senate!
Cecilia Tkaczyk, who stole it 2 years ago, is defeated!

You meant Let’s Go Parnell ... Scott Walker already won.
Fox is smug, they bitched at and mocked Scott Brown for not conceding when they called NH for the rat.
Ok we know CNN is a joke, MSNBC is joke, network news is on life support, but show some damn humility for a change, Fox, or you might join the others.
Yes, I corrected myself in a later post.
I hope you don’t mind I pinged you about 500 times. ;)
I'll take Manchin. They can keep Angus.
Not at all. I wouldn’t have minded even had the election results not been as great.
Well then. ;D
Florida says no to “medical” Marijuana it needed a supermajoirty of 60%, didn’t get it.

Dude!!!! 25-17 in the Assembly!!! +3 in the Senate.
A bit of bad news
Doug LaFollete (D) unfortunately hangs on to the WI Sec of State office again.
IL GOP apparently gains not a single seat in the legislature, rats over 3/5 in both houses, veto proof, just needed to gain 1 in the House to break that. That’s bad.
Another big result from last night: TN voters approved Amendment 1, which amends the state constitution to permit the legislsture to pass laws restricting or banning abortion. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/11/05/tennessee-voters-approve-amendment-1-will-allow-pro-life-laws-to-stop-abortions/
Excellent news in TN.
More neg from me,
Hinckelpooper now ahead in CO Gov.
Rats keep Iowa state Senate.
Disappointed for Bauprez. GOPe ditched him it seems. How did the rats sweep the Iowa state senate when they got crushed for senate, governor, and lost a House seat?
I don’t know, they took 1 open GOP seat (not Joanie’s) that sounds like it was rat leaning and 1 of their incumbents lost to a Republican in what sounds like a GOP leaning seat, so it stays 26-24 rat.
GOP hasn’t won the IA Senate since 2002. Lame.
How did Bruce Rauner win every country in IL but Cook and yet GOP gained not 1 state leg seat here? Lame.
“Disappointed for Bauprez. GOPe ditched him it seems. “
That would be something, all I heard during the primary was that he WAS GOPE.
Yes!
And this was IN SPITE of all the dirty, cheating, election fraud so common in our state.
Impy: Did you go to sleep last night?
It usually comes down to “all politics is local” and “it’s always the candidate”; all those Iowa split-tickets reinforce that idea.
We do have the majority in the Senate, but the problem is the same one we always face.
We allow people who are Democrats to fly our flag.
By the time you have McCain, Graham, Snow, a number of others express their views on just about any issue, you’ve lost the debate.
Our majority won’t be worth a pile of beans on some issues.
RINOs are the perpetual death of us...
So was Gillespie, but both appear to have had little funding. Ridiculous when you think of what could have been done with the cash they spent trashing McDaniel
Thank you Pollywog, I did. Hope you did too.
