We have a couple of special elections tonight, which SSP community members have already created diaries for. In MN, MinnesotaMike is covering a state Senate special election, while Oregon has a couple of tax-related measures on the ballot, which tietack is on top of. Check those links out for full coverage.
UPDATE: We've lost in Minnesota, where Mike says of the results: "Disapointing, but a 6.5 point loss is as close as a Dem has come to winning this seat in decades."
On the plus side, the ballot measures in Oregon look like they are winning by pretty decent margins, with 79% of the vote tallied:
Measures 66 & 67 raise the $10 corporate minimum for the first time since 1931, and increase the marginal tax rate on the richest Oregonians (those who make more than $250,000 a year).
