6/8 Primaries - AR, CA, IA, ME, MT, NV, NJ, ND, SC, SD, VA (results links in OP)

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

I think Harris has it won for AG. The Birther lady won't win.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Did any good GOP candidates lose so far? Just wondering?

ME Governor
Abbott/Mills/Otten split the sane vote allowing LePage to win. ME will probably be safely Dem now.

And IA-03, though thats debatable. If you get crushed like Gibbons did, you probably weren't a "good" candidate anyway, Zaun will give Boswell a good race I think.

[Torie]

Campbell's winning Santa Cruz, fwiw. Probably one of the counties that carries the least weight in a GOP primary.

Campbell may well carry the Bay area. Pity that the number of Republicans there can fit into a ballroom.

[Sam Spade]

So the black won in AR-2....

Harris looks like a good candidate.

[cinyc]

Lowden needs to step up the Clark County margin or she's toast.  My gut tells me she's toast.

Idk, LaPage seems like a credible candidate.

I would have prefered Mills or Otten, but LaPage has a pretty interesting story and record.

Well Kelly is pulling ahead, but with all of San Francisco out and based on what's in, I don't see how he can catch Harris.

Campbell may well carry the Bay area. Pity that the number of Republicans there can fit into a ballroom.

The day any Republican wins the Bay Area (especially Berkeley), I will eat my hat.

And at this rate, DeVore in second wouldn't shock me.

He meant in the primary.

You can't assume anything with 3.6% in, especially in California.

Eh, the counties are somewhat representative, though OC and much of the Bay Area isn't in yet.  Fiorina will win big.  She has 60% of the vote in L.A. County with a little less than 10% in.

Usually the more conservative areas tend to report first, but yes, I couldn't write the early results off as just Orange county or something.

Anyways, now it's 8.6% in, and the candidates I mentioned have solidified their leads.

Prop. 14 has 60.4%, and so will almost certainly pass
Prop. 15 has 42.7%, and so will almost certainly fail
Prop. 16 has 51.7%, and I think has a good chance of flipping when more liberal areas report
Prop. 17 has 54.8%, and could possibly flip when more liberal areas report.

Probably not helping the situation was that the higher-tier primary races were on the Republican side.

     Newsom is winning the primary for California Lt. Governor. Must say I am rather ambivalent about it.

You maybe right. Abbott really choose the wrong race. He would have won 75% in the ME-01 primary and had a good shot at beating Pinegree.

[Holmes]

California is so liberal!

I know that.  But as he said, the amount of GOP in the Bay Area literally fits into one ballroom.  Thus, it's almost impossible for any GOP candidate to win the Bay Area (in the current status of CA that is)

Nevada Republican Senate Race (21%):
Angle        29,556   36%
Lowden    25,546   31%
Other    26,670   33%

Poor Tark; didn't even get his name on there.

[Vepres]

California is so liberal!

Indeed, but it is also polarized.

[Citizen (The) Doctor]

Is it safe to call NV GOP for Angle now?

Berkeley had a Republican mayor and a Republican city council into the 1960s.

Every state is.

[○∙◄☻¥tπ[╪AV┼cVê└]

California is so liberal!

We like to pass sh**tty Propositions that screw over the state and then wonder why the state is dysfunctional.

[cinyc]

Is it safe to call NV GOP for Angle now?

Not without more of Clark County in.  But it looks like Angle will pull it out.

     Well he is obviously exaggerating. Off the top of my head, 11% of registered voters in San Francisco County are Republicans, which works out to about 50,000 voters. You got the point, at any rate.

He's not that left-wing economically, which is a plus for someone like yourself, on the other hand, it is pretty much a demotion on his part.
