Don’t know. But with 12% of precints reporting, Boxer and Brown still leading.

In the case of the propositions' forecasts those are my opinions based upon huge differences revealed by polling yesterday. That is, the tax proposition was favored by 60+ percent and the proposition to suspend the new emissions standards for industry was opposed by 60+.
Polls rejected the pot law.
Local radio commentators are also questioning the Brown, Boxer wins based upon virtually zero returns -- and news reports here did say that half the ballots are mail-ins. The reports also said that millions of those had yet to be turned in and were due today.
I won’t ask, but many in California will just have to take the coming trial like the pussies they are.
Boxer on the other hand is an arrogant idiotic, inarticulate, unlikeable and a case in point on the deeply disturbing average California voter. Look as hard as you like objectively — Boxer simply has no discernable merits.
Thought Halloween was over!!!

Very, well-said!
The numbers don;t like - 7.6 million democrats to 5.2 million Republicans, with 3.4 million Independents thrown in, and lean left on social issues.
You are exactly right.
I'll be reporting from Ground Zero.
The left coasters are nuts.
Boxer is only ahead of Fiorina by 3,800 votes at the moment. That one is prematurely called. They no doubt have their algorithms and historical precinct statistics etc but this is closer than the PA Senate race which swung from 2% behind to a slight win by Toomey.

That’s what some of us have been saying on this thread since 8pm.
Sorry, FR is soooo slooooow I was lucky to just post it after 10 tries. I hope we pull this one out!

I just saw Fiorina ahead by a bigger margin than she was just reported being behind. I hope she pulls it out!
At 19% counted, SFGate reports Fiorina on TOP!
They called it too soon.
Whitman only a couple points behind!
I can see calling Brown, but with millions of absentees, one would have to know what percentage of the absentee voters;
a) turned in valid ballots and
b) who they actually voted for.
So, yes, as a statistician, I’d say a call based on exit polling alone, is premature in a close race like Fiorina-Boxer. And I said the same when Toomey was behind. Still waiting on Brady-Quinn in Illinois, Buck-Bennet in Colorado, Rossi-Murray in Washington, and Miller-McAdams-Lisa M Likely in Alaska.
Brown was just on Fox. He doesn’t sound or look good. Wonder why????? /sarc
