CDZ 2014 Mid-Term Election returns thread

[JakeStarkey]

Wendy Davis is done.

Yup. Tx won't elect a woman unless the guy is an absolute ass: e.g., Richards and Claytie.

 

[JakeStarkey]

Hagan and Shaheen look like they are going to win.

 

[TemplarKormac]

Kay Hagan is down to her closest lead of the night in NC, with Libertarian Sean Haugh and Wrongpublican Thom Tillis now sharing the majority of votes between them. Kay Hagan DEM 837,115 49.53 % Thom Tillis REP 793,570 46.96 % Sean Haugh LIB 56,474 3.34 % Write-In (Miscellaneous) 2,828 0.17 % [TBODY] [/TBODY]

Too close to call.

In Georgia, the margin for Perdue looks large.

However, less than 5% of DeKalb County is in, and Nunn is winning there with 80%, far over Obama's 2008 and 2012 margins.
And in Fulton County (Atlanta), less than 1% of the vote is in, and Nunn is winning with 58%. Obama won Fulton County with 64% in 2012 and I bet that Nunn will be at 65% in Atlanta when all is said and done.

So, the Perdue margin is meaningless, with the most populous county in the state almost completely outstanding.

Important to keep in mind:

"Understand this, Republicans: every hawk you elect is a de facto vote against fiscal conservatism. There’s nothing pricier than war."

Conor Friedersdorf on Twitter Understand this Republicans every hawk you elect is a de facto vote against fiscal conservatism. There s nothing pricier than war.

CNN projects that the GOP retains control of the HOR.

No surprise there.

CNN made this same call at 9:05 PM in 2012. The timing is pretty much as expected.

 

[TemplarKormac]

With 30% precincts reporting in Georgia, Perdue is leading Nunn by 180,000 votes, 60% to 49%.

 

[LoneLaugher]

Minimum wage initiatives are very popular in red states.

Al Franken's wins...I won't have to take a shit in the morning....Minnesota did it for me.

 

[TemplarKormac]

Nebraska called for Sasse, Governors race called for Picketts.

 

[Statistikhengst]

With 30% precincts reporting in Georgia, Perdue is leading Nunn by 180,000 votes, 60% to 49%.

Similar margin in the gubernatorial, but again, neither DeKalb nor Fulton counties are in at all. And those are the counties that decide if a D can win.

 

[JakeStarkey]

Fulton county will go overwhelmingly for Nunn.

Whether that will be enough, who knows at this point.

51 to 52 GOP Senate seats, I think.

 

[LiberalMedia]

Tillis is now leading Hagan by 0.14%, with 55% of precincts reporting in.

The patriarchy is to blame for this latest travesty against womyn's ryghts.

 

[Statistikhengst]

In West Virginia-03, Nick Rahall (D) is losing, 45 to 55, but only 33% of the vote is in.

 

[Statistikhengst]

Orman is leading in Kansas.

 

[TemplarKormac]

In Virginia, with 79% precincts reporting, Gillespie leading Warner 50% to 48%

 

[JakeStarkey]

Roberts looks like he will hold in KS. If so, the Senate is Red, for sure.

 

[Statistikhengst]

The Shaheen/Brown spread is 52/48, is probably too small for Shaheen at this point in time. Unlike other states, the D heavy areas in NH tend to report in first.

This race may even go into a recount.

 

[Statistikhengst]

In Virginia, with 79% precincts reporting, Gillespie leading Warner 50% to 48%

At this time (9:30 PM) in 2012, Romney was ahead of Obama, 55/45.

The margin will flip around 10 pm.

 

[Statistikhengst]

In NC, Hagan still leading, 50/47, Mecklenburg County is barely in and she is swamping Tillis there.
