David whats your take on NJ race….Dem backlash or …?

This seat probably won’t exist come 2012. New York is expected to lose at least a seat in the Census, and this seat will probably be consolidated. So you can savor the win over teabaggers guilt-free.

ME on question 1 28%

REJECT SAME-SEX MARRIAGE LAW
Yes 74802 50.51%
No 73292 49.49%

As I said earlier:

I’m following the ME tally. So far only 12% in. 53-47

My fear is that votes are coming in from the more liberal ME-01 district first, and then from rural ME-02. Not to say that ME-02 rural will vote wrong, but it might be close.

I don’t know what to hope for in NY23. A repub that we can beat next time or a blue dog that might make dems think that’s the way to go?

Thing is, last I checked, Owens was winning big in St, Lawrence, and that’s Scozzafava’s home county.

29% reporting; Owens still a strong 51-44 lead over Hoffman. Teabaggers didn’t intimidate enough voters?

I’m following NY23 on twitter. Most want Hoffman. Many references to ACORN. And, apparently, some machines malfunctioned in St.Lawrence county which the twits (tweeterers?) claim is a conservative county. Prepare for the conspiracy theories.
