PRE-ELECTION CHATTER THREAD (SENATE/HOUSE RACES)

Wow, way too many threads...

I agree. I don't want to have to jump between eighteen different threads. I think they could easily be collapsed into 5 or so regional threads, especially since there probably won't be that much activity in a lot of states (much of the Midwest, for example).

No dice, all I've found is CNN's results page: http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2010/results/full/

Annoyingly, they're sticking with their 2008 decision to not show third-party candidates anymore, unless they're expected to do extremely well (as in RI-Gov, ME-Gov, and FL-Sen).

Posted in the other pre-election thread, but here's a map of the poll closing times courtesy SSP:

Also, one of the best places for results may be USA Today, of all places. In 2008, they had results for everything from Senate and Governor down to the state legislative level (and they included third-party candidates). No maps, though.

Just to give credit where credit is due for shortly after the last election:

Sam predicted Armageddon for southern white Democrats, and Johnny Longtorso predicted that 1994 was just around the corner.

It was really not that hard to see once incumbents in vulnerable districts started retiring left and right.
