NY-09, Special Election Thread

[Niemeyerite]

Weprin leads by 7, 23% reporting.  New York counts pretty fast.

That's not true. Or is it? There are no news from Twitter or AP

Is this a joke or where did you get the numbers from ?

Van Der is good, but his mimicking other posters reminds me of a computer virus mimicking the name of a legitimate program. And thats what I think about everytime I see him do that.

He left off the question mark and everything afterwards. I found the WI page from august and copy and pasted it on.

Strange. It worked well for me, only with the .html link.

But maybe the link is broken for others when you don't post the full one ...

Thx anyway for posting the full link again.

I'm still getting no results... When are the results going to be posted?

Vander Blubb, . You had me going there for a second.

[Progressive]

Before results come out...PREDICTIONS!!

Maybe it's a product of location.

51-48 Turner.

But when do you think we'll get the first results? Maybe in 10 minutes?

For what it's worth, the Brooklyn part of the district has 33.2% of NY-09s precincts but only 29.3% of its registered voters.   Brooklyn accounted for 29.6% of the district's Congressional vote in 2010.  Caveat straight line interpolation.

Weprin 49.9- Turner 49.1- SW guy 1.0

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

Weprin 50.09% - Turner 48.67% - SW 1.24%  I feel like being an optimist.

[Wonkish1]

Weprin 51.07% - Turner 48.93%  I feel like being an optimist.

So your going to make an optimistic very specific prediction, but assume that the SW candidate wont get a single vote???

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

I wonder if we'll have results before a winner is declared in NV-2.

[krazen1211]

Race is currently exactly tied. 2 counties left to report.

That's true.

Apperently, there are dead people voting in the district:

[Shilly]

Guess I'll sneak in a prediction here.

Turner by 5.

[Wonkish1]

Really 40 minutes later???

Damn New York is backwards.

[Vosem]

I predict a Hoeppner upset

[cinyc]

Really 40 minutes later???

Damn New York is backwards.

Our antiquated election results reporting process leaves a lot to be desired.

Results are starting to trickle in in other city races.  It should be a matter of minutes before NY-09 results start to trickle in, too.

[Niemeyerite]

People, could you answer me?? Do you know when we'll receive the 1st results??? It's 3:43 AM here and I'm really tired. I'd like to see some results before going bed... and then, waking up with the final results

[Niemeyerite]

Thanks, cynic.
