NBC Projects Rand Paul Winner in KY

[JoltinJoe]

First major projection of the night: Rand Paul wins the KY Senate race.

[JoltinJoe]

Portman wins in Ohio over Fisher, and the Repubs hold that seat, according to CNN. Also, Repubs take Indiana, Coats over Ellsworth.

[ToTheLeft]

Despite my best efforts (Voted for the Libertarian who got 3%ish), the GOP will gain a Senate seat, as Coats will win Indiana.

[UNHWildCats]

no surprises yet.

theres reports that Reid is doing very well in Nevada.

[JoltinJoe]

CNN is noting that GOP candidates are trending higher than pre-election polling suggested. This can't be good for Reid.

[UNHWildCats]

Kentucky House Races:

All incumbents leading. GOP seats already called. Two Dem seats not yet called.


Indiana House Races:

Three incumbent dems trail early, but not by much... yet. Indianapolis Dem leads as only Democrat currently ahead.

[UNHWildCats]

Three incumbent Dems trail slightly early on in Virginia.

[UNHWildCats]

if exit poll is accurate Dems will hold W Virginia rather easily.

Men made up 49% of the voters and split 48-48

Females made up 51% and Manchin won them 55-42

[UNHWildCats]

Conway closing the gap in Kentucky... must have a lot of his strong areas coming in over the last 15 minutes or so.

[JoltinJoe]

As a Democrat, I'm pretty sure the party is going to take huge and significant hits for fiddling with health care while the economy burned. This Democratic party had a shot to become the majority party for a generation if it had cut spending and focused on the economy. Why the leadership of Reid/Pelosi thought the best time to ram through national health care (which itself did not have broad support) was the middle of the worst recession in 70 years is beyond me. But the consequences were predictable and tonight is the day of reckoning. This was a squandered opportunity which proves the Democratic leadership really has no grasp of what was historically its constituency -- the middle class.

[CitadelGrad]

no surprises yet.

If by doing very well you mean that he's in a statistical tie at this point, then yes he's doing very well.

[UNHWildCats]

Alvin Greene currently at 41%

Coons wins Delaware

[93henfan]

Ding, dong, the witch is dead.

Delaware senate and house seats both go blue.

[93henfan]

The Delaware senate seat is a save and the house seat is a gain for Democrats.

[UNHWildCats]

CNN called the New Hampshire Senate race for Republican Kelly Ayotte as soon as polls closed. Yet exit polling suggests a very close race with Democrat Paul Hodes ahead in the exits.

Male voters 49% of the vote Ayotte leads 56-44

Female voters 51% of the vote Hodes leads 57-43

[UNHWildCats]

Dems should retain Connec Senate. Illinois Senate will be within 2 points, Dems reain NH Governors office.

[UNHWildCats]

John Lynch becomes the first Governor of New Hampshire to win four consecutive terms.

[UNHWildCats]

GOP picks up the Arkansas Senate seat

[UNHWildCats]

Manchin retains West Virginia for Democrats

[UNHWildCats]

Giannoulious (sp) and Sestak out to good size leads early... For Sestak he is riding a big advantgae in Philadephia with the early results... Same for Giannoulious with Chicago.

I'm guessing Toomey will surge ahead once the votes are brought down from the hills of Pennsyltucky.

[FargoBison]

Not surprise but North Dakota Gov. Hoeven picks up a senate seat for the R's.
