NATIONAL SENATE/HOUSE RESULTS THREAD (LATE RESULTS/POSTMORTEM)

[Lief 🗽]

Connolly's back in front. I think he wins, because there's more of Fairfax left than PW.

Fairfax always comes in later; I'm feeling alright about Connolly.

[Hash]

Whose child has she stolen??

those damn witches

[Brittain33]

TN-04 called for DesJarlais. Accidental congressman-for-life?

I kind of love that between TN and IN, the Republicans are just getting the seats they'd get in redistricting two years early.

[King]

30 seconds after Marco Rubio renewed my faith in America, Christine O'Donnell is taking a dump on my brain.

[cinyc]

Duffy (R) is up by 20 in WI-07 with 1% in.   Won't hold, but whatever.

[Insula Dei]

We won, the delaware political system will never be the same.

That's right, you just lost a house seat in a republican wave year. Things will never be the same.

[SPQR]

30 seconds after Marco Rubio renewed my faith in America, Christine O'Donnell is taking a dump on my brain.

Lol,pretty much.An impressive speech and then something that any soccer mom could do better.

[Insula Dei]

I am not too confident about WI. The NYT split screen feature is quite depressing.

[Hash]

Christine says she has food and they're gonna party. wtf.

She's insane.

[Filuwaúrdjan]

Chet Edwards has been defeated - NY Times

[Guderian]

Chet Edwards is Congressman no more. But he was one resilient guy, that's for sure.

[Brittain33]

Joe Wilson is about 50-50 with 50% in on tv. I find that very hard to believe.

[Frodo]

Connelly and Fimian are about tied in VA-11 according to latest poll results, with 60% of precincts in.

Connelly (D): 48.7%
Fimian (R): 49.4%

With 70% of precincts in:

Connelly (D): 49%
Fimian (R): 49%

It wouldn't surprise me if there is going to be a recount on this one.  

[Insula Dei]

Christine says she has food and they're gonna party. wtf.

She's insane.

You might have missed a lot about this race if this is the first time you realize this.

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

It was the "God Bless you... and let's Party" that got my eyebrow cocked...

[xavier110]

I kinda loved that concession speech. "Let's partayyyyy!"

[cinyc]

Dem should win IN-02.  Up by 1.4 with 99% in.  It's over.

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

WTF is with Palin claiming Castle would have lost to Coons as well? Is she just trying to rationalize this blowout to her girl or what?

[Marokai Backbeat]

What hacks on MSNBC. They're seriously saying Republicans won't raise the debt ceiling and thus knowingly cause a worldwide depression.

This is analogous to Republicans saying Obama was going to socialize healthcare.

That's why I don't watch MSNBC.

MSNBC is full of idiots, but Lawrence O'Donnell is obviously an intelligent liberal who belongs on a better network.  Smarter than Keith and Rachel and family combined.

Just fyi, they didn't say that at all. They mentioned the debt ceiling will need to be raised and Rand Paul made a big stint in his speech about being "enslaved to debt." They also mentioned that Rand Paul would have power as an individual Senator to stand in the way of such a raise, and then they talked about the possible effects that would have on the world economy.

That seems entirely reasonable to be and perfectly truthful and legit questions.

But you can go back to the "I hate MSNBC and all cable news" bandwagon now and pretend you're way ahead of the curb.

[J. J.]

Sestak is running about 3% behind Obama in Philadelphia, and not doing that well in Berks County (part of Toomey's district) either...but those seem to be the exceptions.  Sestak seems to be performing rather well.  Bizarre?

 
The bulk of Sestak's numbers are coming out of Phila.  There might have been proportionally more white people voting this time.

[Dave from Michigan]

MI-1  

Benishek (R) up 53-39  with 33% reporting

[Frodo]

Connelly and Fimian are about tied in VA-11 according to latest poll results, with 60% of precincts in.

Connelly (D): 48.7%
Fimian (R): 49.4%

With 70% of precincts in:

Connelly (D): 49%
Fimian (R): 49%

It wouldn't surprise me if there is going to be a recount on this one.  

OMG, Connelly now narrowly has the lead according to the Virginia State Board of Elections website.

[Filuwaúrdjan]

Republicans up in PA-7 and PA-8, in case no one's mentioned that yet.

[sg0508]

WTF is with Palin claiming Castle would have lost to Coons as well? Is she just trying to rationalize this blowout to her girl or what?

Yes and Americans are dumb enough to believe it.

[Capitan Zapp Brannigan]

smh
