**Election Day 2014 - LIVE THREAD**

Free Republic Rocks! | November 4, 2014

[RKBA Democrat]

Happy Election Day everyone! I figured I'd go ahead and get the election day thread started. Polls open on the east coast in a little less than an hour.

Please be sure to post observations of interest if you went to the polls today.

will ABC World News Tonight bother reporting any of this tomorrow?

As of this post time:

Senate: Republicans have locked up 52 seats, ahead in 1 more
Senate: Democrats have locked up 43 seats, ahead in 1 more

House: Republicans have locked up 227 seats, ahead in 15 more
House: Democrats have locked up 142 seats, ahead in 43 more

Governors: Republicans have locked up 26 seats, ahead in 7 more
Governors: Democrats have locked up 13 seats, ahead in 2 more

Okay, so with McCain and his Senate Spouse Graham, we break even at this point.

Oops, that was 97 Senate seats are being addressed here.  Excuse me.

We may get more than 53 by the end of the night.  Hopefully we can pick up a couple of the three not mentioned yet.


I would like to invite folks to use the Los Angeles Times Senate, House, and Nationwide State Gubantorial candidate breakdowns.  It's a fairly good indicator of where things are headed.

Note: Make sure ALL is selected.  Then you can click on Senate, House, or Governors

These categories show current wins and gains.  (Ex: Republican = 44 +4 / Democrats = 38 +2)  Note: + denotes leading in that many races in addition to already locked up

Very important that DINGO is a one term wonder in PA.

Maryland, wow, remember 1994, I don’t think they called it yet!

[mplsconservative]

Yep. If my husband’s family wasn’t all here in MN I’d be outta here in no time.

[GizzyGirl]

Really??? Oh my gosh, I’m not on the right channel. Doing a dance if true!

[Jet Jaguar]

Scott Brown concedes.

[dfwgator]

Mia is one of the main races I was following, I want her to win so bad.

[Art in Idaho]

Hope she takes her nut snippers to DC :)

She will and she'll use em' too!

I hate to be a buzz killer

Don't worry. The buzz is still holding up fine.

In North Carolina, GOP Rep Renee Ellmers has defeated homo Clay Aiken for Congress.

[DoughtyOne]

Good luck. Hope our person can pull it out!

[Jet Jaguar]

The Associated Press declared Scott the winner Tuesday night with nearly all precincts reporting. He held nearly 49 percent of the vote to Crist’s nearly 47 percent.

WTSP-TV reports that Crist will not be giving a concession speech and will be calling for a recount.

Massachusetts, Maryland, Illinois, and possibly Connecticut electing Republican governors tonight. It would have been nice if California had dumped Moonbeam but oh well we’ve had our share of cake and champagne tonight!!!

“WE ARE HEADED TO WASHINGTON AND WE ARE GOING TO MAKE ‘EM SQUEAL” J. Ernst, Senator-elect

[bk1000]

Agreed. That laugh was a little uncomfortable.

[Viennacon]

Give a concession speech, Crist, you perennial smelly obama! its OVER!

[Kenny]

Think I’m tired and might have missed it, did they call it for Warner?

[DoughtyOne]

Hey, I’m in California. Don’t apologize to me. LOL

Glad that link was useful.
