It’s 7:00 Eastern Standard Time, and Polls closed an hour ago in parts of Indiana and Kentucky, and are closing right now in lots of other places, including Virginia, where we’re all hoping to see Senator Macaca go down, and in majority of Florida (the parts that are in the eastern time zone).ย We’ve got half an hour ’til the polls close in Ohio, when we can begin to see just how badly the Republican voter suppression machine screwed the people this time around.ย At 8:00, the polls close in the rest of Florida, CT (everybody keep your fingers crossed for Ned Lamont), NJ (where we’ll be keeping an eye on Menendez), PA (hopefully signaling the end of man-on-dog Sanatorium’s political career), and quite a few other places.
So, anyway, as polls close in your neck of the woods, let us know how things are going – especially in those local races that mean a lot to you, but maybe aren’t going to get a lot of play on the national news.ย We’re hopeful up here in Upstate New York that we can pick up a bunch of House seats, so hopefully I’ll have some good news on that front not too soon after the polls close at 9:00.
OK, let’s roll!
Projecting 70% turnout in CT.
KY-03, Democrat Yarmuth leads 51%-48%, with 37% reporting. This would be a biggie.
CBS projects Bernie Sanders as winner in VT Senate race. No surprise there.
Bernie Dot Com. No surprise at all.
Lugar too. Actually, Lugar’s the type of GOP type who in a by-gone era would have accepted a cabinet post from a Dem president like FDR or JFK. I miss those days. Maybe we can get Karl Rove to choke himself tonight too.:sammy:
CNN projects that an amendment to the Virginia Constitution defining marriage as a union between a man and a woman will pass.
KO quoting AP: A third of the white evangelicals turned to Dems
Joplin, MO. “Mob scene, have run out of ballots”
From US News & World Report:
Ohio polls close at 7:30 – this should be interesting
Ohio polls close in a couple of minutes.ย Yeah, what Suzie said.Greg Pallast coming up in the next half hour on the Nova M stream.
Strickland projected winner in OH Governor’s race. Only surprise there is that Blackwell didn’t steal it.
Strickland projected to beat Blackwell!!!!what he saidJinx, you owe me a beer!
Strickland’s lead was too big, I don’t think Blackwell could have stolen it. What I said.
:40: yeah
Strickland better fumigate the place.:sammy:
I’m listening to Maddow, is there anything better?
Yeah, Maron/Earl/Reilly and NewsDaddy would have been better.:sammy:
Looks like a pickup for the Dems in the IN-08, with Ellsworth at 71% of the vote with 92% counted.
Fucker Carlson sounds like a Dem flack. The world turned upside down.:sammy:
Greg Palast is definitely a buzzkill, I’ll tell ya that.
cresttwo re 21 :banana:
I’m listening to him now and it’s definitely a bummer.
CBS is projecting Sherrod Brown as the winner in OH.
I don’t trust Palast – he’s too glib, and not very credible. A bit short in the evidence department like those dolts with the silly 911 film.:sammy:
OK, coming up on 8:00. That’s CT, NJ and PA, among others. Time to say goodbye to Ricky Sanatorium.
5-4-3-2-1……..YAY!!!!
I just got home….what a day!! Very exciting and full of intrigue..
The word on MSNBC is that many peopole who wanted to vote for Lieberman couldnt find him on the ballot….thats because he was way down on the bottom…
The beautiful thing is that I could say to people to just vote line 2 or line B…….
There were other “friends” of Joe…a democratic candidate even….trying to get people to leave our line 2 and go down to the bottom and click Joe…but it was all so complicated.
People are so dumb and old and sure of themselves…that when they go in saying Joe is a Democrat, I just said “vote the Democratic line”
Also many more dems were turnign out than republicans…..
Web just passed Allen!!!
The rethugs talking at my precinct today had given up on santorum and swann. Hopefully that ahole Weldon is going to join them.
They said that the northern VA votes – where Webb is supposed to be strongest – won’t come in until late, so if he’s close early, that’s a good thing.
Hey I’m a prognosticator! Check out #54 this morning! The bottom line position is a huge impediment for Leiberman’s mostly senile voting base.
Okay, its an obvious point. :sammy:
CBS has called it for Casey in PA, as expected.
Webb just passed him a few minutes ago….
Brown over Dewine….
Back to Maddow, I can’t listen to brian williams
…well, Ive been having trouble listening to maddow….but making it more palatable is that theyve got Keith there….
I love Olbermann, but had to turn away with williams and father timmuh.
WTF is it with Timmuh and that green tie? Does he think it’s St. Patrick’s Day?
CBS is calling Casey for PA
Santorum :jason: !!!
I have long awaited this moment
YEESSS!!! CBS calss it for Bob Casey. No more man on dog.
:yippee: :yippee: :yippee:
youve got to love a show where theyve moved olbermann to sit at the head desk with Matthews….that is so fantastic that…well, its a sign of the times.
I’m sticking with Nova M, at least “radio” wise.
bye bye man on doggie and your sicko ideas!!
who is on nova M now?..is it on anywhere here or is it streaming only…?
cry, Ricky, cry!!
Am I indulging in too much schadenfreude ???
๐
So, for those of you keeping score, it’s Dems +2 in the Senate. +2 Governorships, and +1 in the House.
Now for Weldon :nana:
Susan as far little Ricky is concerned, there is no such thing as too much, especially when like me you live in Pa.
Melina Peter B Collins is on Nova M .. You can launch their stream from the links on the right side of the blog

Sherrod Brown called the winner, PJ the tote board if you please.
Spitzer for President in 2016! [Taking over for Prez Obama natch].:sammy:
Aw, Katie Harris
went downlost.As far as the issue of Joe being on the bottom line, the kids runnign the Lamont office didnt know why the parties were lined up the way they were, but I found out that apparently it goes by which party won the last state election…so the governemrtship determines which major party is first and then the other parties go by who got the most votes last time. So the Working whatever was on the list higher than Joe because they got votes in the last election here.
Joe was really upset and and tried to get that changed…like, change the LAW for him because hes…um…special…?
Now, because of this, they have had idiot clowns running round town in huge sandwich board signs that show where to vote for Joe…
But believe me, its not easy. Im always paranoid that Ill make a mistake and vote for the wrong line so I look at the names and line them up to the Democrat line and then go down the line real quick so I cant mess up…
The old black ladies were so sure of themselves…I just kept saying to vote the line…
Why any Dem would ask anyone to divert their attention from the line, is beyond me…and its the ultimate in selfishness for Joe.
Now Repubs are filing all sorts of complaints about voting machines getting their votes wrong…and apparently youtube has a ton of little videos that people took of their voting machines malfunctioning.
Brad must be so thrilled…..proof!!
Casey…yea…Matthews is announcing it….and Matthews says that Santorum was on his way up towards the whitehouse before this election…..heh h eh he heheh ehhe HA!!!
CBS calls NJ for Menendez!
aww…it woulda been nice to have her around for comic relief…..
Didnt Bush spend the whole day with her yesterday…I think she was the only one who would have him (….in more ways than one….Katherine puts out!!)
How ’bout that tote baord?
Scarborough is just a fuck!
I believe we’re still holding at +2/+1/+1.
Oops, my bad. We are +2 in the Governors. Will be up three when the NY polls close.

โข Democrat Ben CARDIN Wins Maryland U.S. Senate Race
That’s a crucial hold.
I still don’t think Lieberman flips- its makes no sense; he’ll just continue to be a stone in the shoe for six years. Now we really need RI, Va, Missouri and Montana.
Its a rationalization, okay, but there are a lot of conservative Dems [Nelson, Byrd and now Casey for example] who we ignore all the time, and somehow, life goes on.:sammy:
Still no congressional results from Pa
I just want them to be able to tell Joe he’s the equivalent of a freshman Senator. I want him to have no power whatsofuckingever. And if flipping him gives the thugs (with Cheney) the majority, he can be bought, of that I’m certain.

I think we might just fall short in VA and will just miss with the Senate. This deprives Lieberman of some of his potential clout. It also keeps the Repugs on the hook for the general deterioration of Iraq and the rest of this Bush-created mess. We can also do the subpoena and the investigations, and compile a dignified record for a takeover of everything in ’08. Does that sound like plausible media bullshit?:sammy:

earlier in the day, right after midnight tonight here p.s.t., mercury squares (90 degrees of longitude) neptune — an “inharmonious” aspect.

Woo HOO! The proposition that gives the state legislture a raise from $24,000 to $36,000 was defeated. If they can vote down minimum wage, they don’t get a raise either :fu:
:doh:drudge called tn for republicans
:doh:thats low wages for your state legislature
remember:
7,000 democratic lawyers now need to earn their fee or fulfil their mission, or some combination.
even if we don’t collect any more seats, maybe we can have some civil, and even criminal,
suits and get rid of some more crooks at the local level. not to mention the goddamn machines.
:doh:how do the people that live far from the capitol afford to go back and forth?
prop 85 in CA which required parental notification of abortions is losing:banana::nana::yippee:
John Hall wins! Orleans still sucks tho.:sammy:
I like Webb. For a Reagan guy, he ain’t half bad. :sammy:
krista is gonna be on the nova m stream!
Krista, is that you holding on the line?
damn! why did my computer get slow now!!:fustrate:

McCaskill now up by about 14,000 votes with 3004 of 3746 precincts in!
Tester up by 8 points with 331 of 867 Precincts Reporting
If Va and Mo go blue at the last minute, then Rove just might strangle himself tonight. :sammy:
A dem won Delay’s seat. Ditto Foley. :sammy:
a world without Rove…..hmmmm
:banana::yippee::dancers::spank::nixon::nana::40::40::alc::fist:
:doh:i dont think it will be over for about a month or so i expect recounts in va
Picked up 24 House seats so far, 3 in the Senate, and 6 Governorships.
yeah, i think so too…but i just wanna see Webb win
Under 2% is an automatic recount in VA, so that’s a definite at this point.
There’s only one way to end this. Remember Caddy Shack?
Hey Everybody! Lets go get laid!
:sammy:
With 3030 of 3746 precincts reporting:
D Claire MCCASKILL 819,895 49%
R Jim TALENT 804,342 48%

jesus threw the merchants out of the temple and now the megachurches are bringing them back in…………
:40::alc:
the MoneyChangers, seanie
:priest::jesus:
:yawn:
:fu:
When they arrived back in Jerusalem, Jesus entered the Temple and began to drive out the people buying and selling animals for sacrifices. He knocked over the tables of the money changers and the chairs of those selling doves, 16 and he stopped everyone from using the Temple as a marketplace.[c] 17 He said to them, โThe Scriptures declare, โMy Temple will be called a house of prayer for all nations,โ but you have turned it into a den of thieves.โ
I give up, I’m tired and i have to work tomorrow :yawn:
ok im out of here! hope springs a turtle!
Tester’s lead down to 4 points with 499 of 867 precincts reporting. McCaskill still hanging in there about 17,000 votes ahead.

about 9,700over 10,000 votes (4%) with553567 of 867 precincts in.pj
that’s what could be interesting about the VA race being contested… then comes the holidays.
plus they’ve got to be pretty demoralized..
they’ve got to figure out who to blame and fight some more amongst themselves.
I sorta wish bush would try to start another war
for christmas.
49-49
:jason:
i’m almost giddy to hear what the neo-cons are going to say tomorrow:slap::tommygun:
i’m a little nervous
about going to sleep.
i’m afraid when I wake up the pod people will have changed everything while I slept.
Hello Seditionists –
It’s been a long night, but we are so close. What I can’t believe is that Corker was the winner over Ford. I guess a little race baiting goes a long way – even if the RNC claims they didn’t pay for the ad.
Tonight does not end our work. We can party tonight and even more tomorrow – but we need to start the work of election voting reform.
The machines at my polling place did not work and my mother who lives in a different district was purged from the record along with many of her neighbors. No conspiracy thinking just a need to get this system fixed.
Sleep well and VIGILANCE
:sammy:
Hopefully we can party
Webb ahead 11000 votes now
i agree Darkjstz. i know alot of people who “say” they don’t vote because of our voting system. that’s one of the main things that need to change:nod:
roxie, i’m going to stay up till i hear some kind of outcome, at least for Montana. those Neo-Cons aren’t going to catch me off guard:nana::fu::doh:
:fustrate::fustrate:
grrr….okay, i’m not going to sleep, but i have to get off the computer for now. night night blog particles!:40:
