RULES:

1. The first poster (in this instance, me) starts an election night, regardless of year, calling one state, choosing which party it goes for, and by what percentage.

2. All following posters update the map with one state per post.

3. We will use this map for reference. Try to keep within the confines of poll closing times.

Without further adieu, I'll start us off:

*******

Bob Casey (D-PA) / Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) v. Rick Perry (R-TX) /  Marco Rubio (R-FL)


7:01 PM: The state of Kentucky is called for Gov. Perry.

Perry: 54.3%
Casey: 44.5%
Other: 1.2%

I'm not.  If demographic trends hold it will be a swing state by 2016.  Same goes for North Carolina though; IMO those states should vote in tandem, or at least closely when it comes to popular vote percentages.

EDIT: Ody, think we should set up a claims system like for the old map games?

Sorry Yelnoc, I was already posting when you claimed next turn...

8:05:

The socially conservative, but economically liberal state of West Virginia goes to Casey. Casey played up his socially moderate credentials here and cast Perry as an extreme candidate.

Casey- 50.9%
Perry- 47.6%
