Guys, looking at the county map it appears that the area right North of Mississippi's coastal counties is uber-pro-McDaniel.  According to region maps this is still considered the "coastal" region of Mississippi, so why is Cochran (and other establishment GOPers) so weak here?

I've always considered these places more like the Pine Belt than the Coast.  It makes sense to me that McDaniel would post large margins here. 

Most populous county in the north with still no results is Pontotoc, which should post a pretty solid margin for Cochran - he was born there. 

That's the odd thing though; it appears that Cochran's doing fine in the pine belt based on the region maps I see since the map looks like Pine Belt begins around Jasper County and goes North, and Cochran dominates the central to northern region of the Pine Belt.  Gingrich, the "anti-establishment" 2014 candidate, also did really well in Southern Pine Belt/Northern coastal region, but not in central to northern pine belt.  Is there a reason for this "redneck rectangle"(in jest) of green counties on the NYT map? I get McDaniel lives there, but the pattern seems to have lasted longer than that.

Its the most white trash part of the state.  Also, I've never defined the Pine Belt to be anything much west of Jeff Davis County.  Southwest Mississippi is its own thing. 

Once again, I'd like to point out that I predicted this general outcome back in December. 

A lot of the vote is still out in Starkville and Oxford, should be good for Cochran.

Republicans have just given away the Senate seat, Ernst has probably won the nomination.

Brad Zaun with 33% of the vote, 43% of precincts in. Crossing my fingers.

But DeSoto is done. I don't think Vicksburg is in either. Absent a Rankin surprise, Cochran should survive.

Yep, its up to Rankin county at this point...

There's pretty significant chunks of Jones and Lamar still out, as well as Rankin. Probably not enough to counterbalance Rankin though.

Here's what I don't get about Ernst.

How did she manage to get both massive tea party support and massive establishment (US Chamber of Commerce + Marco Rubio) support?  Are castration ads really that effective to GOP donors?

Looks like Jeff Bell will be facing Cory Booker in NJ (91% in, 29-27-25-20), but this has been tight all night and its pretty irrelevant as Booker will crush him in November.

Daines and Walsh easily claiming their victories (it looks like), Bohlinger getting slightly over 20%. Competitive primary on the republican side for the MT-AL house seat.

How is Matt Schultz, the Iowa secretary of state, in third place? That's a pretty pathetic. Career ending performance I say.

I believe he's running for the House.

Anyway, "Mamacita" just took the lead in MS, with about 80% in.

what the hell is happening in Jones County?

McDaniels a whisker away from outright majority?

Not so fast...

80% in, McDaniel has picked up the lead. This is very suspenseful. Anybody at this point can win. Hell McDaniel might even win without a runoff.

Well Cochran falls behind by a tiny amount in Rankin, and slips below 50% in tandem. Rankin must enjoy being essentially the whole ball game. Tongue

No more votes out in DeSoto County and McDaniel's at 49.9%.

Rankin will be decisive, but don't underestimate the importance of the remaining vote in Warren, Pontotoc, Lafayette, and Oktibbeha County.
