Bleh looks like Toomey will probably pull it out after all. At least this race was projected to be a Republican win so it won't hurt their chances to hold a majority.
To go back a page, the redistricting really is bullshit and luckily Florida actually got something right in that both legislative and congressional redistricting standards amendments supposedly passed. Very little to be thrilled about overall.
Holy shit.
Boehner is in tears about how awesome is he.
I fucking love it.
lmao
Watching Boner cry is almost worth the lost of feingold and Grayson.
lol, maybe his eyes are just watering from getting bronzer in there
also lol @ Oklahoma passing a law preventing Sharia law from being applied in Oklahoma, yknow, JUST IN CASE
also with Roland Burris retiring and all the candidates losing there are now precisely 0 black senators currently serving come january. Yay diversity
Sestak has pulled to within 50k votes with pretty much only heavily Democratic counties still reporting. This is going to be very interesting.
The California one was a POS, nothing but feces to choose from. I guess legal weed ain't nothing but a pipe dream nowz ;o
CNN is calling CA for Boxer, meaning Dems will keep the senate. Still got some tiiiiiiiight races in PA, IL, NV, and WA though, so we probably won't be sitting at 50/50
Meek should have gotten out of the god damn senate race. I can't believe 20% of people voted for him, even that is way higher than I expected. All the black people vote for him or what? He was a terrible candidate with no chance of winning anyways lol, my god.
Angle is inching closer to Reid but he still has a huge lead. I can't imagine she gets in, hope Im right.
NegativeAll the black people vote for him or what?
black people didn't vote, that's why he lost lol (actually exit polling suggest nationwide african american turnout is a lot higher nationwide than 2006, but obviously not 2008 )
also looks like Kirk is going to win IL (which I am also bummed about because I think Giannoulias is super hot)
edit: aaaaand PA to Toomey too, that was a really fucking close race
MSNBC is refusing to call it for Toomey, even though the AP has.
But from what I understand, the votes simply aren't there for Sestak to pull it out.
Edit: HERPDERP NOW THEY DID thanks MSNBC.
Prop 19 is doing absolutely terrible atm also. Still a ton of votes to be reported, but wtf.
Yeah I'm actually surprised by that. Guess it just wasn't marketed very well or at all... You'd think with all the potheads in Cali that would get passed so fast.
Or maybe they would rather not have it be legal and taxable.
Potheads are idiots. You can't rely on them for shit.
