HD-99 also fell to the Republicans.

Now the Courant is saying the Democrats held 5 of the 6 House seats, so I guess the 101st didn't go Republican?

SD-27 stayed Dem, so it looks like the Republicans ended up with SD-13 and one or both of HD-99 and HD-101.

Okay, now I'm hearing the 99th stayed Dem, so it was just the 101st that went Republican.

Florida:

74-26 for the Dem.

No idea for the other two, since neither state reports election returns on election night. Your best bet is to find a local paper/TV station that has the results.

The Republican won in Maine:

Not sure if this counts as a hold or a pickup, but a Republican won a House seat in Arkansas 60-40. The reason I say that is it was held by a term-limited Democrat, then won by a Republican who died before the election last year. That puts the Arkansas House at 54-45 with one vacancy (a Dem seat).

How was SD-18 going to be close? It was Diane Black's seat in the Nashville suburbs.

Sounds like the Russian guy is going to be the frontrunner for the nomination. He voted for gay marriage in 2009, so I guess he's good? I'm a little surprised, considering how homophobic the former Soviet bloc is.

And it comes out (no pun intended) that he's actually a closet case. Surprise surprise.

There are three specials for the Wisconsin Assembly on Tuesday, left vacant by Walker appointees (all Republicans, obviously). Two are safe Republican seats, but the third could be interesting; it's a swingy seat in LaCrosse County that went for Kloppenburg by 52-48. The Dems have a candidate with a pretty good resume: he's been on the LaCrosse County Board for something like 25 years and is a professor at UW-LaCrosse.

Yeah, the Democrat has outperformed Kloppenburg's numbers in all but one precinct so far.

Yeah, the Democrat won in Maine, as did the Democrat for the other House election in Massachusetts (10th Middlesex). Coincidentally, both won with a 68-32 margin. The Worcester Telegram & Gazette is reporting 3,325 votes for Durant, 3,270 for Alicea.

There was also a state House seat in Alabama that ended with a 54-46 win for the Republican... against a Constitution Party candidate.

It's southern Mobile County, there aren't any black people there.

Actually, I'm curious to know what the local party strength is like in the Utica district. It seems like it should be one that Republicans would do well in (Obama only won it 50-49), but the prior incumbent had little problem holding the seat over the past decade.

Edit: More registered Democrats than Republicans. Kind of odd for upstate New York.

Not that odd for an economic basket case area like Utica. 

I have to wonder if the R-C candidate can win AD 144.
71-21-8.
It was described as safe Democratic in some writeup I found... wonder what happened here in 2010? Huh Was the guy on the Conservative line actually a renegade Democrat?

Carl Paladino was on the ballot in 2010.

They weren't massive; I don't think the Republicans picked up any seats in Erie County (aside from Grisanti winning, but Thompson had his own problems). But it was enough to cut the margins of a couple Dems in the district significantly.

Kruger has resigned from the Senate, so we should see an interesting special election there.
