    Why does CNN have different numbers than NBC?

    Just projections. Some are more confident in their polls/projections coming in than others. Basically, they will call states like Mississippi, Alabama, New York without any real votes.

    Just wanted to pop in to say that the Senate races are incredibly interesting. Congrats to Warren and Sanders. Will be watching the Kaine-Allen race closely. Kaine is gaining ground by polls. Also rooting for Tester in MT.

    Bad night for rich idiots. I just wish Conneticut had more elective offices for Linda McMahon to not win.

    She may run for Congress or governor of the state. How much will throw in for those?

    Also Angus King in Maine is interesting. Elected as an independent, one has to think that he will caucus Dem, but he hasn't said as of yet.

    McCaskill should defeat Akin in Missouri as well, if it hasn't been called already. I'm on Politico who seems to be a little behind.

    Your party has serious issues if people have to ask "Which one?"

    It looks like Romney is gaining in Florida, only 16k down now, but I'm assuming that means the one red area that was left reported their votes. 9% left to report.

    Looks like it's still Obama's area that hasn't reported. This shit seems to be over.

    Yeah, most people on the air seem to be hinting at that, but I don't think they want another 2000 so they're being cautious.

    If the projections are correct, it isn't close at all. Shit could still break Romney, but it is looking really really bad. VA and FL both seem to look good for Obama, which would give Romeny no shot.

    I was sort of kidding about you guys being my TV tonight but now I'm serious. I have a digital converter and the last channel just gave out- FOX. Not that I was getting the best news there anyway. So thanks for updates here. :D
