Congressional Special Elections Results Thread (OLD, PLEASE UNSTICKY)

[Attorney General & PPT Dwarven Dragon]

Tonight, this thread will focus mostly on SC-5 results. GA-6 results will be primarily on the main thread for that race, although occasional updates will be posted here.

^ I expect the '08/'12 presidential result - R +11 - to be a good estimate.

Question:

Why was the AL Senate general election set for December and not for November, like all the other general elections (VA, NJ, UT-3) ?

Bentley set it for 2018, but when Ivey took over in May, she decided to change it. But by then, due to AL having primary runoffs, it was too late for a November general - federal law requires military ballots to be sent out like 7 weeks before the election, and the runoff is placed late enough under state law that the earliest allowable general is a December election.

OP updated for next week's event.

AL-SEN by county: http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/files/elections/2017/by_county/AL_Page_0815.html?SITE=AP&SECTION=POLITICS

UT-3 by county: http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/files/elections/2017/by_county/UT_Page_0815.html?SITE=AP&SECTION=POLITICS


(just change the 'by_county' in the url to 'by_state' to get the statewide totals only.)

I will link the NYT page once it's up.
