The gubernatorial primary is not until September. Congressional only for NY tonight.

In terms of two candidate preferred, California 10 ended up as a comfortable win for the Democrats (around 55-45% 17,500-14,500) while California 39 was a blow out.

what do you mean by "two candidate preferred" and where are you getting those numbers?

Hrm, they must have counted a lot more votes since I last checked.

Rather than looking at all the votes for all the candidates, 'two candidate preferred' means only the candidates in question are looked at (so the Democrat who came in second and the leading Republican.) So this:

Josh Harder: 20,010, 54.2%
Ted Howze: 16,902, 45.8%

I'm still confused by your wording but based on your example I think I understand - you're not talking about the election as a whole, but only looking at the 'race' for the second runoff slot, and only comparing the votes of 2nd and 3rd place?

If so that makes sense I think. I'm just used to "two party preferred" as the term is used in Australia, and assumed you meant something similar here (which in California would probably be comparing the total number of Democrat votes with Democrat votes.

I was the 63rd voter of the day at my polling place at 3:50.   That's pretty low.

[Gass3268]

I in-person early voted.

I was the 63rd voter of the day at my polling place at 3:50.   That's pretty low.

At 4pm, the polling station I was at in Montgomery County had 224 dem votes cast and 21 reps. No idea how that matches this regions history.

Ugh, one drawback of being back in Europe is that I'm always asleep when election night kicks into gear...

...I guess, but 4-5AM is really pushing it. Why do NY polls close so late??

Anybody got any predictions for how big Romney wins by tonight?

I'll go with 68-31.

Do you guys think Grimm would lose the GE? I think it would move from Likely R to Tossup/Tilt R if Grimm wins tonight, I still think he would edge out for now though, but idk a lot about this place, so I would love if someone could give me their takes here.

Because New York is the only state with reasonable and sane voting hours that are designed to actually make it feasible for people to vote.

I would rate it Tilt D if Grimm wins, honestly. Staten Island is very swingy.

Whats more interesting would be if Grimm loses and then proceeds to take his Conservative ballot line to November. Then we have a three way race and the race still moves to Tossup.

Turnout in Oklahoma is very high - at my polling place, the line was as long as it was DURING THE 2016 GENERAL ELECTION. Partially this is because of people voting on 788, the medical marjiuana question, and partially people angry at anti-Education GOPers.

[136or142]

I was the only person in my polling station this morning in NY-09. Voted for Adem Bunkedekko but still think he has no chance. My polling station is split across CDs, though, with the voting location actually in NY-08, so at least half the voters had no contest to vote in because I think Hakeem Jeffries is unopposed in the primary.

What!!!! He's Bunk(edekko.)  

He must be a loser because his name is Adem and not Adam.

Trivia: McMaster's middle name is Dargan.  I have never heard of anyone else with that name.

Badass name.

We don't have a governor primary megathread in the statewide election board so I may as well post it here: What's with the insanely low turnout in Newberry County in SC? Half the precincts are in, but only 163 votes in a county that gave 2800 votes in total in the first round.

I also should add it's a Trump 60% county, so it's not like this can be explained by it being a black-majority county with not a lot of Republicans.
