Next election:

Democrat Charlie St. Clair and Republican Steven Whalley, both of Laconia, will face off on Sept. 12 in Belknap County District 9 to fill the seat left vacant by the resignation of Republican Robert Fisher.

Also these elections:

Senate   OK   44   9/12/17         
House   OK   46   9/12/17

Presidential election results for the upcoming specials on September 12:

NH HD Belknap 9: 2016: Clinton 39, Trump 56 | 2012: Obama 50, Romney 49

OK HD 46: Clinton 41, Trump 52 | 2012: Obama 40, Romney 60

MS HD 102 (Top 2 advance in no candidate is over 50%): Data no available, but this is a safe Republican seat.

Not seeing OK SD 44 on the list of special elections on ballotpedia, is it just a primary or am I missing something?

[Attorney General, LGC Speaker, and Former PPT Dwarven Dragon]

It's on Griffin's list in the congressional forum. Appears to be a general election.

I think the Democrats will be taking OK-HD-46 due to the fact Democrats have been doing well in Oklahoma special elections as of late, 5/6 since 2015. And this one seems to be the "bluest" seat yet.

This was the result in Belknap 9 in 2016:



Not much margin to fall for the GOP here.

Yeah I feel Belknap-9 and OK-HD-46 are Tilt D pickups at this point. Due to the nature of special election swings we have seen this year for Democrats and Oklahoma Democratic over-performances.

[Ebsy]

Oklahoma SD 37 is just a primary tomorrow, general will be in November.

Apparently, contrary to recent State House election results, Clinton and Obama both narrowly won Mississippi HD 102. Be on the look out for an flip there as well, meaning that all three seats are going to be competitive.

[Ebsy]

New Hampshire closes at 7 EST, Mississippi and Oklahoma at 8 EST.

Any links to the results pages?

WMUR's twitter is a good source for NH results: https://mobile.twitter.com/WMUR9

To clarify on my earlier post:

Also these elections:

Senate   OK   44   9/12/17         

Upon checking, OK SEN 44 was held several months ago (Democrats won). The listing for today on Griffin's topic is not correct in this case.

For New Hampshire, WMUR reporter John DiStaso is the guy to follow on twitter for results: https://twitter.com/jdistaso/

Bryce Marlatt, Republican State Senator for District 27, resigned today after being arrested and charged with sexual battery after apparently groping an Uber driver. So, I guess that means we are getting another Oklahoma special election.

Jesus Christ. Is this like the 6th OK special?

I think it would be 8 this year. They also could potentially leave the seat open until 2018.

I don't see why they should. It would be open for about 15 months.

Looking good for Democrat Charlie St. Clair in Belknap 9.
