These numbers are toxic for Burns. Way below what he needs to hold the margin down enough for his areas to make up the difference. I wonder how bad a sign this is for Nov?
Toomey will be either and watching Benedict Arlen hanged by his own rope would be justice.

I’m rooting for Specter, not because I want him to win, but because he’ll be easier to beat in the general.
Fox just reported turnout appears to have been under 20%
Burns is getting clobbered. What kind of bozos live in that district?? Are they all on welfare or unemployment?
PA
Sestak takes a 7,000 lead at 51.4%
It’s way too early yet, it’s less than 3% of the precincts.
I keep on wanting to call Sestak.. slestack. Land of the Lost People???? lol
“Specter would be easier to beat in november.”
Agree.
This district has been Democrat for 38 years. It wasn’t on the GOP hit list. WH will claim it as a big win, but in reality it would be gravy for the Republicans. Just like the Dums claimed NY23 was the real story and ignored VA and NJ - it ended up costing them MA.
If the Dums win this it will help with their complancency for November.
Of course it is far from over.
Can someone explain to me how anyone with half a brain would vote for Specter? Really?
Ping for later.
.... You have now entered the ninth circle of hell...traitors to country, traitor to party, traitors to God. You shall now know what it is to truely live like an animal. .....sorry....it just reminded me to the colloque of Maximilion Caty, in “Cape Fear”, as he prepared to debauch the lawyer. DeNiro should have gotten the academy award for his roll in that movie.
Me too. I want Rendell’s fraud machine to bring it home for Arlen so that Sestak’s voters will be so damn mad that some of them will vote AGAINST Arlen in the general.
I want Toomey to beat Specter.
Don't like the sound of that. Pundits have been spelling doom and gloom for Specter all night citing how Obama and Biden not campaiging this weekend was a sign. Even Randell said turnout was low because of the rain and some sports event, laying the ground work for a possible defeat. I was so hopefully he'd lose but your post makes me worry now. An hour ago I would have said Sestak would be the victor.
thats so low. Ridiculous!

It means Democrat voters are still Democrat voters, they still expect their free even with Murtha gone. It's pretty scary stuff. It also shows that in November turnout will be important because the freeloaders will show up they don't have much else to do.
