[Kraxner]

If Florida seriously can't get through its results by tonight then its time to roll out the bugs bunny gif.


Just 9,000 votes separates Crist and Scott....

Tell me how many more counties left still reporting in florida before i have to start binge drinking again....

Hickenlooper now winning by 3% aww yeah

Looks like Beauprez got Bucked!

Beauprez talking about how colorado should reconsider the marijuana legalization really put independents that voted for gardner to split their tickets for hickenlooper.


Thr amount of votes hickenlooper and gardner got were near identical.

Exit polls tab has Gardner leading with independents 50-42, and Hickenlooper leading independents 49-42.


Im very confident in saying had the gun control bill not happen than hickenlooper would of had double the margin and might of had the coattails to save Udall.


Also hickenlooper apologized for the guncontrol bill and said he disliked portions of obamacare, and made efforts to reconnect with hostile rural residents by doing things like this.

A reverse mirror of what Bill Clinton did with minority audiences and the saxophone.

?

Search up Clinton Saxophone on youtube, he played it on a black talkshow and it was reported all over and his popularity among minorities went up.

Im probably exaggerating about hickenlooper with the banjo, but hickenlooper was trailing badly among rural Coloradans and playing the banjo was an attempt to connect with them despite pissing them off with gun control.

I always thought the hick' would pull it out.

He actually got 50,000 votes than he did in 2010, it would be a wonder if he reaches up to one million votes when he has 977,000 right now.

If it wasnt for gun control his margin would of went from 3% to 6-9% and without it being a republican wave year it might of even went to double digits.

Interesting that despite the republicans campaigning on the economy and how crist was to blame for the jobs lost during the housing crash.

If the race was solely decided by voters voting on the economy as their top issue. Crist had a 1% margin over scott.


What killed him were the votes for those who said illegal immigration and foreign policy was their top issue.....


Perhaps if Obama acted much more on ISIS and border security would crist had won?

What happened in Wyoming? Mead didn't break 60%, all counties but two swung to the Democrat, and two third party candidates broke 5% each. I was under the impression that he was one of the most popular governors.

Don Wills from a quick google search is a conservative independent, who took away votes. Plus the democrat only got 2,000 more votes than the last democrat four years ago. While Mead also had a few of his voters from 2010 drop off all together.
