Republicans are probably going to pick up the Massachusetts seat. They have a strong candidate (veteran and Attleboro councilwoman).

MA 2nd Bristol District

Hawkins (D)3,92751.94%
Hall (R)3,63348.06%

15/15 precincts, but no word on whether this is a final total. 28.9% turnout.

Could you at least say where these numbers are coming from.

Are there any interesting special elections tonight?

There is a safe dem seat in florida, and a potentially competitive one in Iowa.

Florida will be interesting to watch for margins. It was a part of the state where Rick Scott did worse than Trump (margins-wise) in 2014.

The dem candidate is a state rep and the R candidate is just the head of the local party committee, so I expect it to be a landslide.

Florida or Iowa?

Florida. 61-36 Clinton seat, so the democrat is putting up a 24 point margin swing so far.

Have a feeling the Republican is going to win by 15+ in Iowa. The republican candidate has a great profile (former state rep) while the dem candidate is kind of meh.

Yep. Republican leading 61-38 in Hardin county early vote. Going to be a disappointing night.

All of Hardin county in. Sweeney (R) won it 61.5 - 38.5. Clinton lost the two-party vote 65.5 - 34.5 in 2016 for the portion in SD-25.

Story county is the big democratic stronghold here. Clinton only lost the SD-25 portion 53-39. Freese needs to run up the score there to keep it close.

Freese leading in the absentees in Story County

*IF* she can hold that percentage (58-42) she can make this a race. Story county casts the most votes in this district.

Freese WINS Story county 56-44: http://www.storycountyiowa.gov/DocumentCenter/View/8228

But, she only nets 300 votes.

Sweeney (R) leads Freese (D) 53-47 (2943-2560). Massive underperformance from 2016 if it holds. But two conservative counties still to come in should push that margin up.

Let's hope that Freese lives in Grundy and owns a small business in Butler...

Freese is screwed. Sweeney represented both Butler and Grundy counties in her state house seat. I think we'll see a final margin of 57-43 for the Republican.

Story county really, really, really had awful turnout night. Way underrepresented in the final totals.

Okay, Butler County, how bad is it? 60% R? 70% R? 80% R?

The SD-25 portion went 66-29 while the county as a whole went 66-29 for Trump. But Obama only lost here in 2012 54-44, so Freese conceivably could stem the bleeding if she matched his margin. Seems ancestrally more democratic.

All of Butler county in: Freese loses it 57.5 - 42.5 with the Republican netting about 140 votes.

Looking back on the 2017 AD-09 special in Suffolk we flipped, we didn't start getting results until 9:40.

Uh-oh. Stern (D) losing narrowly in early results from Suffolk County AD-10 where a flip was expected. It's an obama-clinton seat.
