I'll be here around eleven.

Attn Dems: "all your seats are belong to us"!

[McLynnan]

Thanks for the ping and I'll be back later. Even though I know the polls are reassuring, I am on pins and needles waiting to see if Cornyn will be our next Senator from Texas. McAwful said he thinks Kirk will upset Cornyn. Please, please God don't let it be Kirk -- the shame of it all!

[CounterCounterCulture]

Sure, we can have both... this thread for the larger state races (Senator/Governor) and individual state threads for the lesser, more localized races...

Hi, I've lurked off and on for a while, but this is my first post. I look forward to hearing everyone's thoughts on this nail-biter of an election day.

[Cicero]

Bump for later.

[Catspaw]

I'm going to need a nap--I was up late for the Packer game last night and now the elections. I have a feeling, though, that it's going to be quite a while, maybe even days, before we know the outcome of some of the races.
