Haley Barbour went on MSNBC today and downplayed the Republican candidate for governor's chances in Ohio.

Because he used to represent the district? They also said Allentown turnout seemed to be up in the article, and that's an area Sestak should win.

Just talked to a friend of mine in Philly who's friends with people who are high up in state Dem party. Didn't sound very confident, said Philly turnout is low and suburbs are voting in huge numbers so far.

If it does turn out the be an exit poll of just PA-15 that's pretty good news for Sestak as Toomey used to represent that district..

It sucks Michigan doesn't really have any good elections.
MI-01, MI-07 and that other House district.

NJ is much worse though, only Alder vs Runyan to pay attention to.

I don't know why, but I'm incredibly calm right now. It's strange, I guess I've kind of detached myself from the election tonight emotionally, which is probably a good thing.

How are the rest of you feeling right now?

According to Republicans, turnout is record high in rural areas and low in urban areas.  According to Democrats, turnout record high in urban areas and low in rural areas.  Just as an FYI.
lol, about what I'd expect.

Turnout very light in Nevada so far.

Also, heard on twitter that turnout in University of Michigan is light, moderate turnout in Ann Arbor.

The chatter seems to be rather kind on the democrats.
It's mostly Democrats who have been doing the chattering so no surprise there.
