The 2014 primary season ends (Sept. 9: DE, MA, NH, NY, RI)

[Vega]

We're up to 66% of the statewide vote now. Ige 68-31. Hanabusa 49-49.

57.5% now in for HI-02 GOP: Crowley leading Capelouto 55-45

Darn. For a homeless man, he sure knows how to win Republican primaries.

[Vega]

I'm watching Djou on KITV... he seems so fake to me. Can't wait to see him lose in the General.

I'm watching Djou on KITV... he seems so fake to me. Can't wait to see him lose in the General.

Hawaii Republicans seem to keep going with him since he once won some stupid retarded first past the post election with him and 2 Democrats.

I guess he's better than some random perennial dude like Kawika Crowley. But it's time to let go.

Something tells me Charles Djou is going to be the Campbell Cavasso of Congressional District 1. He'll keep losing, and he'll keep getting re-nominated.

[Vega]

Does anybody have any word on the fourth printout?

[Vega]

Schatz is ahead by 1%, roughly 2000 votes.

Surprised where he isn't leading by more... I assume there will be a fifth and final printout. That should give us something resembling our final vote count.

[Vega]

Sounds like two precincts in Hawaii county have yet to vote.

I think those two precincts will decide who Hawaii's next Senator is.

[Vega]

Okay, so from what I can gather there is going to be one more print out, and then tomorrow the candidates will hit the Big Island to campaign in the delayed precincts.

[Vega]

Fifth printout; Schatz lost 100 votes.

[Vega]

How many registered voters are there in these precincts?

8,000.

It looks like it's all in except the 2 precincts that haven't voted yet.

I think the Fifth and final printout will cover the miscellaneous that haven't been totaled up so far. It's not enough to win an election for anyone.

On that note, though, it's 5:00 AM here in Pennsylvania. I'm going to get some sleep.

[Vega]

I don't know the laws in Hawaii, but is this within recount territory?

Hawaii doesn't really have a recount protocol. Anyone can request one, but they would have to make their case for a recount to the Judge.

For Hanabusa, I'm not sure it "being close" is enough.

[Vega]

Next up is Connecticut, Minnesota, and Wisconsin Primaries, plus South Dakota Runoffs, on the 12th.

Are there any notable races in those states?

[Vega]

Interesting. With each new printout after the third, Schatz's lead seems to be narrowing.

[Vega]

Fascinating maps! And those two precincts look like they should support Schatz as well (or at worst go to Hanabusa by a very tiny margin).

Are my eyes playing tricks, or is there a tiny sliver of a red red precinct on the west border of the northernmost gray precinct?

Nope, it's there. A very tiny precinct, apparently.

[Vega]

According to Civil Beat reporters, turnout has been "robust" in Puna. Ought to be interesting to watch.

[Vega]

Say it with me:      S-E-N-A-T-O-R      S-C-H-A-T-Z      !

[Vega]

Makes sense. Schatz did win the surrounding precincts.

[Vega]

Dominating!

I wouldn't call winning a U.S. Senate Primary by 1,769 votes dominating.

[Vega]

Whichever AZ-01 Republican emerges after this week is probably gonna get nuked immediately: Kirkpatrick bought almost $2M worth of airtime.

That's alot for a Dem Nominee, probably one of the highest numbers this cycle.

[Vega]

At this point, we are just waiting for ONE more precinct in AZ-01. Whichever lazy precinct manager is holding up the count there, get to work immediately!

There's probably a problem of some sort there.

[Vega]

Next up is Guam on August 30th.

So, uh, what is up there? Governor and Delegate along with a bunch of Legislature seats?

[Vega]

Where can the results be found posted live? Like the state website.

[Vega]

MA: Tierney holds on.

AKA R+1.

[Vega]

Polls close in Massachusetts and Rhode Island at 8:00 PM, with Massachusetts' closing at 9:00 PM, right?

[Vega]

AOSHQDD calls the NH-Sen nomination for Brown.

A little bit early for a call.

[Vega]

AOSHQDD calls the NH-Sen nomination for Brown.

Never seen this website before, what is it exactly? Politics blog with occasional live results?

Yeah, it's a right leaning blog which covers elections. I think it stands for Ace of Spades something or other.
