Polls will be closing in ten minutes, I'll try to post results as soon as I start getting them. Smiley

Low turnout.

Results will be coming in.

Republicans picked up SD-13. Low turnout can do that.

Looks like the Republicans picked up SD-13 and HD-101, while the Dems have held SD-06, HD-20, HD-25, and HD-36. Still no word on the other three.

HD-36 was pretty close however.

Low turnout not a shocker. SD-13 makes sense - everyone, Dems included had the bad taste of larceny in their mouths. SD-06 looks close but the Democrat has the lead - I guess Stewart only has so much strength in his hometown. Peckinpaugh's political career is done. If she can't win her home district in the state House, she can't be trusted with anything by the GOP.

HD-99 also fell to the Republicans.

I woke up thinking this was going to be a good day. Sad
It's Malloy's fault though. His Republican budget is very unpopular here.

Now the Courant is saying the Democrats held 5 of the 6 House seats, so I guess the 101st didn't go Republican?

SD-27 stayed Dem, so it looks like the Republicans ended up with SD-13 and one or both of HD-99 and HD-101.

Okay, now I'm hearing the 99th stayed Dem, so it was just the 101st that went Republican.

Democrats retained Missouri State Senate District 9:

State Senator - District 9    Precincts Reporting 64 of 64
   Curls, Shalonn (Kiki)  DEM 11,594  83.5% 
   Wood, Nola  REP 2,298  16.5% 
Total Votes   13,892 

This makes the Missouri State Senate 26 R, 8 D.

In Connecticut, I believe the line-up is as follows:
State Senate:  22 D, 14R
House:  99R, 52D.

Is that district in St. Louis (the city, not the county) or Kansas City?  It would seem so from the result.

The Courant says this as their final result:

SEN 06: DEM Hold: Gerratana 52% over Stewart
SEN 13: REP Gain from DEM: Suzio 58% over Bruenn
SEN 27: DEM Hold: Leone 53% over Kolenberg

HSE 20: DEM Hold: Verrengia 64% over Hoffman
HSE 25: DEM Hold: Sanchez 99%
HSE 36: DEM Hold: Miller 52% over Peckinpaugh
HSE 99: DEM Hold: Albis 52% over Monaco
HSE 101: REP Gain from DEM: Kokoruda 58% over Walker
HSE 126: DEM Hold: Stallworth 36% over others

Turnout was so low and the vote so fractured in 126 (Bridgeport) that a petitioning candidate was nearly elected.

SD-13: Part of Cheshire, Meriden, Middlefield, part of Middletown (I-91/691 Corridor in between New Haven and Hartford)
HD-101: Part of Guilford, Madison (Shoreline, east of New Haven)

If WTNH's breakdown is correct, votes on the Working Families Party line put the Democrat over the top in HD-99 (Part of East Haven)

Blast the Working Families Party. An organization that only endorses and does not run candidates of its own is a pressure group, not a political party.

So what's the problem? It's a good thing they aren't running candidates against Democrats. Look at all the problems caused for Republicans by the Conservative Party in New York.

I don't see it that way. Sure, maybe cross-endorsing allows parties to lend, borrow and steal little fractions of the vote and be able to say to Democrats/Republicans, "See, if only you were nicer to us you could have won this or that election", but it just seems like an underhanded and corporatistic way to run politics.

This is just the start.

With election in 2011, expect more Mississippi elected elected officials to jump off the sinking ship of the Democratic party.

Chill out dude. The Democratic ship has sunk in Mississippi since 1964.

Florida:

http://election.dos.state.fl.us/elections/resultsarchive/Enight.asP

74-26 for the Dem.

No idea for the other two, since neither state reports election returns on election night. Your best bet is to find a local paper/TV station that has the results.
