With 9% of precincts reporting, Lincoln Chafee leads 55%-45%.

You must have meant with 9 precincts reporting, as the site you later provided the link to only shows 3% of precincts (14 out of 515) in yet.

Okay, I guess maybe not, since it was someone else who (before me) linked to http://www.turnto10.com/politics/9802560/detail.html .

46% reporting:

Chafee   54%
Laffey     46%

Unfortunately, it looks like Chafee is going to win.

LINCOLN CHAFEE    18,216    54%

Laffey probably can't win.

Those results are coming in too fast. I don't trust them.

Polls have been closed for awhile now and there aren't many precincts in the state.

If these figures are correct, the Republican primary in RI will have broken all turnout records for such an event.  The previous high was right around 40,000.

I'm used to a slower progression of results.  I'm becoming more and more distraught over a Chafee win.

 Yeah, my sources citing low turnout were obviously wrong. If we're at 35,000 with 50% reporting, this is going to be huge.

Is this the next Dewey defeats Truman?

According to Hotline, "Steve Laffey's campaign aides will be stunned if they lose." Hotline also quotes Laffey's team as saying they've "hit all their target numbers in every targeted precinct."

Does anybody find it odd that only one site has over 10% of the RI vote counted?

Damn those smart Republicans who knew that a Laffey victory would jeopardize their party's control of the Senate!!!

If this margin keeps up, I would consider it a fairly impressive winning margin for Chafee, all things considering.

I'm speechless. This is a huge victory for the NRSC, the 72 Hour Task Force and the GOP's hope of holding the Congress. This will hurt the "anti-incumbent" narrative that the media has been hyping.

Any call from the AP yet? Over 50% of the precincts have reported and Chaffee has an 8 point lead....
