2009 New Jersey Governor's Race

[tmthforu94]

Statewide:  (18.3% reporting)
Corzine: 41.3%
Christie: 52.3%
Daggett: 5.5%

Daggett is doing extremely poor. I was expecting him to get close to double-digits.

[muon2]

Corzine leading by 63% to 31% in Cumberland County. He won it by 57% to 39% in 2005.

Only 14% is in.  Too early to make projections.

Yep, with 35% in now it's a 52-41-5 margin.

91.38% Gloucester in:

- CHRIS CHRISTIE    36,117    47.26%
- JON S. CORZINE     33,640     44.01%
- CHRISTOPHER J. DAGGETT    6,129    8.02%

[Tender Branson]

Daggett seems to get a higher share in Gloucester than anywhere else, maybe distorting the historic comparison that Gloucester is indicative of NJ. And Republicans historically do better in this county than in NJ. Still not looking good overall ...

CNN: 50-44-06 Christie

[Zarn]

Are you ready to call Gloucester, Cinyc?

[tmthforu94]

Statewide: (27.7%)

Christie: 49.6%
Daggett: 5.5%

Or maybe it's just because he's better placed on the ballot in Gloucester.  There's nothing regionally special about Gloucester and Daggett.  His numbers are all about ballot positioning.

I'm excited to do a comparison tomorrow: percentage vs. ballot position.

[CultureKing]

anyone know where I can watch online news for this? For example is MSNBC broadcasting live coverage online?

[Zarn]

It's because almost half of the Essex votes came in.

[War on Want]

Big batches of votes are in from Democratic strongholds. This isn't looking good for Corzine.

[cinyc]

Are you ready to call Gloucester, Cinyc?

Yeah, pretty much.  Christie by 3.

93.53% in Gloucester:
- CHRIS CHRISTIE    36,767    47.27%
- JON S. CORZINE     34,222     44.00%
- CHRISTOPHER J. DAGGETT    6,240    8.02%

Republican takes early lead in NJ governor race

Christie leads with 52 percent, Corzine has 41 and Daggett has 6 percent. It is notable, how Daggett is doing far worse than expected.

Christie's actually leading Union Co 52-40 with 23% in.

[Ronnie]

The results in New Jersey are kind of weird -- one second Christie leads by 10, and the next, he leads by 5, and then he leads by 7.

I wish it were more stable like the VA election.

[Bono]

What is hilarious is this:

Question - 1-Green Acres Funding - Ballot Issue
1129 of 6305 Precincts Reporting - 18%
   Name   Votes   Vote %
   Yes   148,504   51%
   No   141,056   49%

Wonder if this will actually fail. Major props to NJ voters if so.

We like to give out our results in bulk here.

Republican takes early lead in NJ governor race

Christie leads with 52 percent, Corzine has 41 and Daggett has 6 percent. It is notable, how Daggett is doing far worse than expected.

     Perhaps a certain number of Dagget voters decided that they really didn't want four more years of Corzine.

Thought so too. Funny how so many Christie voters drifted away to Daggett, helping Corzine, but when they realized that it helped Corzine, their least favorite candidate, they went back to Christie.

Gloucester - 100% in:
- CHRIS CHRISTIE    39,674    47.31%
- JON S. CORZINE     36,842     43.93%
- CHRISTOPHER J. DAGGETT    6,750    8.05%

Let's see how well this tracks the statewide final total.

[tmthforu94]

Statewide: (35.9%)
Corzine: 41.5%
Christie: 52.1%
Daggett: 5.5%

[Meeker]

The candidates that DWTL were working for seem to be losing by a fair amount, if anyone cares.

[Phony Moderate]

Gloucester officially called for Christie.

[War on Want]

Gloucester - 100% in:
- CHRIS CHRISTIE    39,674    47.31%
- JON S. CORZINE     36,842     43.93%
- CHRISTOPHER J. DAGGETT    6,750    8.05%

Let's see how well this tracks the statewide final total.

This seems to be one of Daggett's best counties so the statewide final total should be at least a little different.

[Hash]

OK, it's clear people. Christie wins. Game over.

(if this ends up wrong, laugh at me for all eternity)
