NATIONAL SENATE/HOUSE RESULTS THREAD (LATE RESULTS/POSTMORTEM)

[Frodo]

According to CNN, Republicans look to be making a sweep of the Virginia congressional delegation, with Morgan Griffith looking as if he will unseat the incumbent Democrat Rick Boucher 53% to 45% with 44% of precincts reporting.

It is still too early to call the 11th...

[Frodo]

Connelly and Fimian are about tied in VA-11 according to latest poll results, with 60% of precincts in.

Connelly (D): 48.7%
Fimian (R): 49.4%

It wouldn't surprise me if there is going to be a recount on this one.

OMG, Connelly now narrowly has the lead according to the Virginia State Board of Elections website.

Wow, it looks like Gerry Connolly (VA-11) is really getting a run for his money. The last time I looked at it, Republican opponent Keith Fimian is actually leading by a few hundred votes.

I still think Connolly is favored, but if he loses, the Republicans will have even more VA House seats then they did before 2008 (if Connolly loses, then the Republicans will have a 9-2 advantage!)

Connelly now has a narrow lead in terms of raw votes, but I have no doubt there is going to be a recount before the dust settles on this race.  

[Frodo]

With less than a thousand vote difference between Connelly and Fimian (w/ Connelly having a narrow lead) and 97.6% of precincts (164 out of 168) reporting in VA-11, I am waiting for an automatic recount to be called.  It will probably be the first of several...

Bobby Bright up by 8......votes.

He now trails Martha Roby (R) by less than two hundred votes with nearly 90% of precincts reporting.  

[Frodo]

The Republican Party looks to be consolidating a decades-long shift by the South to the GOP, and it seems like it will be culminating this decade.  Consequentially, a lot of those seats in the South that have just been lost Democrats are never going to get back...  

[Frodo]

Bobby Bright up by 8......votes.

He now trails Martha Roby (R) by less than two hundred votes with nearly 90% of precincts reporting.  

Her lead has been extended to over 230 votes w/ 90% of precincts reporting.

Needless to say, there will be a recount here too I presume. 

[Frodo]

Did he actually weep tears of joy?

Who are the 'girly men' now?

[Frodo]

Murray now hold a narrow lead over Rossi 50 to 49, with 59% of precincts reporting.
