I'm saying Smith, Critz and Cartwright win. No idea about the Platts' seat primary. Leaning towards a Kane quasi-upset in the AG race.

Never imagined I'd be saying this (especially after the mild Winter) but it looks like a late April snow - yes, snow - storm could affect turnout in western PA. Some areas will get over a foot of snow. This directly affects the Altmire-Critz race and could dampen Smith's showing in the Senate primary. The snow is beginning Monday morning and lasting until early Tuesday. "Strange" doesn't even begin to describe this...

The Kane margin is surprising.

 
Neither the 12th nor the 17th have been called yet. Is everything expecting those to tighten towards the end?

PA-12 is at 36%, with Altmire up 24.

PA-17 is at 49%, with Holden down 24.

Critz can close it, but I think it is over for Holden.

I can tolerate Critz/Altmire considering where they are.  As for Holden GOOD RIDDANCE!

That might end up as a GOP seat.

Uh, no. You don't know about the GOP nominee, I see...

Cartwright's margin is surprising, too. Altmire-Critz was pretty much dead on.

Even in a 2010 environment, PA 17 will not be in play. End.

What the hell? It's 6:30. Did polls close at 6 or something? I've never heard of polls closing this early.

Yeah, they close at 6 local time. Same in Kentucky.

I thought they closed at 7. Weird.

This seat will be competitive but it's certainly not even Lean Dem at this point.

I don't even think it will be competitive. I think this will be one of those races where we look back in November and say, "Remember when this was going to be close? LOL!"

Once again, Taitz remains a figure of "relevance" only to MSNBC/Maddow (think something is going on there?) and the blogosphere.

It was my personal thought that Ryan was going to endorse Thompson some time last week but other things obviously got in the way. I still thought his selection would help Thompson because the Romney team would nudge him to offer some praise/a subtle endorsement. This should be enough.

It looks like all four Wisconsin Republican candidates are living in the same area of the state (southeast quadrant). Any idea who will be favored in the other areas? Also, how much will the other candidates be hurt or benefit from residing in or near Neumann's old Congressional district? I assume Neumann will be strongest there. Will he be able to swamp the others or are they getting the last laugh by biting into his lead?

You mean Ryan's district? Wink

Yeah, that too. Tongue  Boy, that area (and Wisconsin as a whole) is the center of the universe in American politics these days.
