12:56am: The AP's called KS-01 for Tim Huelskamp. With MI-01 and MI-02 not looking like they'll be resolved tonight, and MI-09 having a clear frontrunner in Raczkowski, SSP is going to call it a night!
12:50am: MI-09 (R) is looking good for Rocky Raczkowski, who's ahead 42-27 with 72% reporting.
12:48am: The KS-04 GOP primary is called for Mike Pompeo, who has 39%. Pro-choice Planned Parenthood-endorsed state Senator Jean Schodorf finishes second with 24%.
12:42am: The AP's also called MI-03 for Justin Amash, who becomes the favorite to succeed outgoing GOPer Vern Ehlers. KS-02 (D) is called for Cheryl Hudspeth, and not netroots fave Sean Tevis, who finishes in third.
12:39am: The AP's finally called MI-13 for Hansen Clarke. Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick is the 4th House incumbent and 6th member of Congress to get booted, joining the ranks of Reps. Parker Griffith, Alan Mollohan, and Bob Inglis and Sens. Arlen Specter and Bob Bennett.
12:33am: The AP's called Jerry Moran the winner in KS-Sen. Just like we've been saying.
12:28am: Back in Kansas, Moran continues to nurse his lead over Tiahrt. Still very little from the three largest counties in KS-01, which is 70% reporting and 69-27 Moran. KS-04 is 85% reporting, 67-27 Tiahrt. Moran winning the rest 48-45.
12:22am: Legal just got back to us about Michigan's automatic recounts, and the 2,000-vote margin provision applies only to statewide contests.
12:18am: Just two measly precincts left in MI-01, where the margin has shrunk to 39 votes. The ticker tape says a mere 10-vote margin for Benishek when this is over.
12:07am: Just five precincts left in MI-01. Two are in Allen-friendly Bay County, the rest in Benishek-friendly Iosco County. SSPLabs predicts an 86-vote edge for Benishek when this is done.
12:05am: Back in MI-02, most of the outstanding precincts are in Muskegon County, where Bill Cooper's getting almost half the vote. That won't push him back into contention, but Riemersma's 2nd-place performance there so far might help him overcome his 593-vote deficit to Huizenga.
12:01am: Here's one race we haven't mentioned too much tonight: MI-09. According to the Oakland County Clerk, Rocky Raczkowski has a 41-26 lead over Paul Welday with almost 50% in.
11:57pm: The recount provisions may be significant in MI-02 as well, where Bill Huizenga has a 600-vote lead over Jay Riemersma.
11:55pm: In MI-01, Benishek continues to hold his narrow lead over Allen. SSP Labs is telling us this will hold and that Benishek will prevail by about 120 votes. SSP Legal is looking to Michigan's recount provisions; the standard in general elections is 2,000 votes or less, no word on primaries.
11:36pm: The Missouri GOP House primaries are pretty much over (but with no calls from the AP yet). In MO-04, Vicki Hartzler is up 41-30 over Bill Stouffer and has a 9,000 vote edge; in MO-07, Billy Long is up 37-29 over Jack Goodman and has a 7,500 vote edge.
11:34pm: The KS-Sen race has been called! The Dem side, that is, for Lisa Johnston.
11:31pm: More precincts trickle in up in MI-01. The SSP Labs mainframe is still telling us 38.8 Benishek, 37.8 Allen. It's telling us also there are about 3,100 votes left to count.
11:26pm: KS-Sen keeps seesawing with us, but this recent tightening can be attributed to another 11% of KS-04 having rolled in. Tiahrt's still winning his base 68-27, Moran's winning his 69-28, and Moran splitting the DMZ (still) 48-45. KS-01 is still at 52% reporting.
11:24pm: State Rep. Kevin Yoder's been declared the winner on the GOP side in KS-03, he'll go on to face Stephene Moore in November.
11:18pm: Back on the GOP side, Jerry Moran is starting to pull away from Todd Tiahrt. 51% of Moran's KS-01 is reporting compared to 57% of Tiahrt's KS-04. More votes are being cast in KS-01 and Moran's also winning the neutral zone 48-45.
11:16pm: In the significantly less-exciting KS-Sen Dem primary, Lisa Johnston continues to nurse her 31-24 lead over Charles Schollenberger.
11:12pm: A mere 36 votes separates Benishek from Allen in MI-01, but SSP Labs is still telling us that Benishek will pull this out 38.9 to 37.7, thanks to his strong 53-26 in the UP while holding his losses to 46-29 under the bridge.
11:10pm: Michigan Radio has called MI-13 for Hansen Clarke, making Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick the 4th House incumbent booted this year.
11:06pm: The lead keeps changing hands in MI-02; Kuipers has fallen from first to third, while Riemersma has moved to second. 72% reporting there. Amash is still leading in MI-03; Clarke continues to hold the advantage over Cheeks Kilpatrick in MI-13.
It's a progressive party!
