Coakley margin versus Obama margin.  Now with votes cast in parentheses.  Note that the magic number is -25.81%.

Avon (2k): -24.43%

Danvers (10k): -37.21%

Hopkinton (7k): -30.93%

Leicester (4k): -39.40%

ag: I'm seeing bigger swings than that, and for all intents and purposes, an election that is probably over.

A quick glance appears to indicate Brown outperforming (even Romney) in the working-class (or formerly working-class) areas and the suburbs.  Coakley appears to be holding up well in the cities and rich liberal areas.  I can see Whouley at work here - question is "is it enough"?

Looks to me like a 8-12% swing in most places. May be a very close election, but nothing seems clear - yet.

Turnout in towns that are all in is in the 60s.

Frankly, with these numbers, there's just no way Coakley wins.

Coakley is being murdered in the suburbs.

Does the NYT have a table of towns anywhere?  The Globe's website is sluggish.

cynic, based on your spreadsheet math, how well is Brown doing?

Coakley's pollster (Lake, according to Fox) blaming the White House; White House blaming Coakley.

Just love circular firing squad before the result is announced.

I agree with the WH on this one.

I think if Obama was stronger there would be a win or if Coakley was a better candidate there would be a win.  Both together is the problem.

None of the big cities have reported much yet, but look at Newton.

About a fifth of Lynn is in and Coakley only leads there by 3%.

Burlington (9k): -29.95%

Eastham (3k): -22.16%

Grafton (7k): -35.48%

Granby (3k): -31.16%

Newbury (3k): -28.42%

Orleans (4k): -24.43%

Rockland (7k): -34.05%

Sandisfield (tiny): -27.95%

etc.

There's really no realistic way Coakley pulls this out, unless I completely understand how Boston works versus its suburbs.

Is there really any way that Coakley can still win this race at this point?

I feel like calling it already.

At quicker glance - agree with Moderate and Dan - turnout and margins are just going to have to be greater in the cities/liberal bastions for Coakley to have a shot IMHO.

A place where Patrick had a 2-1 advantage on Healey.

If Coakley is relying on the Boston area, that's a pretty lame margin out of Everett...

Unfortunately, Projected turnout seems busted in my spreadsheet.,

Turnout in the towns that are all in so far is in the low 60s.  Brown is doing about as well as Romney, best I can tell.  Dem stronghold Northampton came out to vote so far - in the 70s.

The main problem I'm having is getting the Globe's website to work well enough so I can export the data to Excel.

LOL Brown has 49% in Boston.

Of course, only 2% is in...

O'Brien won it by 5% in 2002.  Al pays attention to it because, well... you know.

Based on the current count, about 50-55% of RV turned out (~ 2.1-2.2 Mio. votes).
