I don't understand. Foley still leads in CT with 95% in, yet Malloy is the winner? What is going on?

Bridgeport and New Haven are incompetent when counting votes.  Bridgeport is also incompetent when making sure there are enough ballots so that everyone can vote, too - and kept some polls open until 10 to create a good Democratic margin.  

I'm sick and tired of that cheap Democrat trick in incompetent inner cities.   Run your elections properly.  Then, there's no need to cheat and keep polls open later than the rest of the state.

Foley should ask for a recount and sue.  Every Bridgeport ballot should be scrutinized.  I simply don't trust them.
Yeah, it's not cheating.

Anyway, great win for Malloy!

Brown had a larger margin of victory than Sandoval right next door.  Didn't expect that at all.

     CA & NV were both strong points for the Democrats. Harry Reid pulled through, contrary to the suggestions of most polling.

I think we pretty much have to consider NV a blue state now.  Colorado has probably moved into the lean Dem column as of this election and it is rapidly turning blue.

I tend to agree.  Both of these states are becomming part of the Democratic firewall. 
Hopefully New Mexico will eventually come along for the ride, but the last elections were a setback. The Republicans did pick the best possible candidate for Governor there though.

An interesting point I take from the fair districts campaign here is if there will be others in different states in the future?  Perhaps conservative interest groups will go after California while the liberals will go after Texas.
California voted for non-partisan redistricting yesterday. It's terrible. Sad

Democrats could create a very, very, very nice map out of California.

They are saying it was about gay marriage because there was a huge movement led by Vander Platts or whatever his name was to get Social Conservatives to vote no on judge retention because of the gay marriage ruling.

Ugh, stupid networks calling it getting my hopes up and then un-calling it.

The CT Attorney General looks like she screwed up pretty badly here.

COLORADO: 70% Counted
62: Defining Personhood as Concepcion No 70%
63: No Compulsory Health Insurance No 52%
Would have thought the 2nd would have passed easily. Guess not.
