I'd say it looks good for a Democratic senate.

All the networks have 100% reporting and he has a 2700 lead on the networks...sounds like a good time to call for a victory

Bush won the whole nation by a lot less than that

id say allen would concede tommorow morning...but what does he have to lose?

McCaskill is claiming victory...considering its stlouis thats holding out...seems a lil stretch but not much

Tester has a strong lead in Montana...conservatives are saying Burns isn't doing good enough in the counties he needed to to win

Any numbers on average turnout?

I wonder if this was a lot higher than normal for a mid-term?

Up by nearly 8000 now.

I'd say it's damn close to over. I expect Allen to concede. It's not looking like when the final tally is done it's going to be within .5.. but maybe the absentee will surprise us all.

Bush often talked about a mandate. I think this is a pretty damn clear one.

I was going to ask about that.

Is there a limit on the lead for a state funded for recount?

They haven't counted the extra 3-4k to Allen's totals on the CNN website

Out of the seats I pointed out, I predicted a loss, FL-13 seems to be it

But I did get NM-01 wrong by a few hundred votes

However I did the vast majority of my full info picks right...that being everyone not listed
