From KTV News:
California Lt. Governor John Garamendi has easily won a special election for a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives.
The District 10 seat he will fill belonged to incumbent Democrat Ellen Tauscher who took a position within the State Department.

And from the Times Union:
ALBANY -- Democrat Bill Owens won the 23rd Congressional District seat despite a strong push by Conservatives to take the post in the heavily Republican North Country area.
Trailing Owens by over 6,000 votes, Conservative Party candidate Doug Hoffman conceded the race just after midnight Wednesday.
_________________________________
So - in both the open seat in Congress, the Democrats won, including picking up another seat to add to the hefty Democratic majority - the New York's 23rd district, which has been in Republican hands since 1852.
I'd like to personally thank Sarah Palin for making the Democratic pick-up of District 23 possible, seeing how running Hoffman as a 3rd-party candidate split the Republican vote. Please, please, PLEASE run her as your candidate in 2012, Republicans. We're begging you !!
Enjoy governing New Jersey, in the meantime - remember, it's the "garden state", ROFLMAO
