Talking heads on MSNBC are sounding pretty optimistic for Dems, FWIW. At some point they do start getting early exit poll numbers and that tends to color their early coverage, but not sure if they have those yet or only in an hour.

But at some point, you can tell roughly how the exit polls (though not necessarily the actual results) are going based on how people on the TV sound in coloring their coverage.

Rachel Maddow could barely control herself in the opening minutes of the 2016 coverage either.

Everyone give their final prediction of IN-Sen and KY-06, before the polls close. I say Braun wins IN, and Republicans hold KY-06, FWIW.

Agreed

Early returns for Braun show him very close to Young in 2016.

My guess is Rs are going to do well in rural areas where Trump did well. That is not exactly a surprise, but might mean bad things for various districts like KS-02, MN-01, etc. The best Dem hope at the moment is going to have to be on the suburbs. And we don't really have anything in from those sorts of areas yet.

Violently agree.

The results will be more polarizing than people expect.

Donnelly leading in Vermillion County, with 1/17 precincts in. Lucy Brenton is in second place, with 40%, to 48% for Donnelly and 11% for Braun.

There’s no way that’s accurate, right?

I'm guessing the Lib. vote got switched with the Rep vote?

They're obviously not all in, but I still think the rural counties are looking good for Braun here.

Though to be fair, Roy Moore looked good in most of the rural counties. Jones racked up the margins in the urban areas and caused massive erosion in the suburbs

The paths to victory tonight won't be through the rural areas. They're too Trumpy.

Well, thats exactly how Trump won in 2016.

Florida only got polled about 8 million times in the pas week and they all roughly showed the same thing so a dem sweep is to be expected.

The early GA exit poll numbers for Abrams among white women are disgusting ...

In what context?
