MA, MD, NH, NY, RI, & WI Results Thread #3

by: James L.

Tue Sep 14, 2010 at 9:59 PM EDT


11:01pm: Let's move the party over here!
11:00pm: We finally have something out of the DC mayor's race, but it's only partially absentees. Adrian Fenty (the incumbent) leads Vincent Gray 58-41 (for now).
10:58pm: The AP finally called MD-01, which I'd kind of forgotten about. As expected, Andy Harris beats Rob Fisher; he currently leads 67-33 with 57% in.
10:56pm: Wow, things are just continuing to dwindle for Charlie Bass in NH-02. He's up over Jennifer Horn now only 41-37, with third wheel Bob Giuda at 17 (meaning that Bass vs. only one teabagger would have been a convincing teabagger win). And that's with only 16% in.
10:54pm: Is there some hope for Eric Schneiderman in the NY AG race? He's pulled with 33-27 behind Kathleen Rice as The City starts to report. Schneiderman's up 45-25 over Rice in NYC, but also 32-21 in Westchester + Rockland. (Rice, the Nassau Co DA, is up 57-22 on Long Island.)
10:50pm: One other prominent Dem state Senator going to massive defeat in New York: Pedro Espada (the coup leader who's likely going to prison for health care fraud) is losing SD-33 to David Rivera by a whopping 76-17 margin.
10:46pm: 23% are in statewide for the New York GOP. Carl Paladino is still with a serious lead in the Gov race (though still shrinkin): 61-39 over Rick Lazio. In NY-Sen-B, it's DioGuardi 41, Malpass 40, Blakeman 20. (Could this turn out to be the race that takes the longest tonight to get a call?) And in poor forgotten NY-Sen-A, it's Jay Townsend 57, Gary Berntsen 43.
10:42pm: Checking back in on our incumbent Dems in New York: in NY-14, Maloney leads Saujani 85-15 with 10% in. In NY-10, Ed Towns is leading Kevin Powell (the other Real World alum in a primary tonight) 66-34 with 15% in. And in NY-15, with 8% in, Charlie Rangel is at 45%, but with his nearest competition (Adam Clayton Powell IV) back at 23.
10:40pm: As expected, William Keating caught a bit of a bounce as his Norfolk Co. base continued to report. The AP just called the MA-10 Dem primary for him (he'll face off against Jeff Perry). He's ahead of O'Leary 55-45 with 77% reporting.
10:36pm: No, it's not you... New Hampshire is still moving in slow motion. NH-Sen is at 20% in, with Lamontagne at 44 and Ayotte at 36. Could tighten as the state's outer reaches report. In NH-01 for the GOP, it's Guinta 37, Ashooh 34, Mahoney 20 (with 28% in); bad news for Guinta is that all of Manchester has reported. And in the GOP's NH-02, it's Charlie Bass looking weak in the face of a teabagging; he leads Jennifer Horn 43-36 (with only 15% in).
10:34pm: For some reason, 19% are in in the Dem AG primary, despite that also being statewide. Kathleen Rice is in the lead at 36. Coffey's at 25 and Schneiderman's at 22. Also an interesting note for state Senate watchers: long-time Dem state Sen. William Stachowksi lost a primary in his Buffalo-area seat to Tim Kennedy by a wide margin.
10:33pm: The Carl Paladino lead is shrinking quite a bit, as places other than Buffalo report. His lead on Rick Lazio in the GOP gube race in New York is down to 67-33, with 13% in.
10:30pm: Paul Begala sums up the night, and pretty much all of politics: "If Christine O'Donnell can't stand masturbation, she'll hate the US Senate."
10:28pm: Wow, things flipped in the GOP primary in NY-23. With 17% in, Matt Doheny now leads Doug Hoffman 56-44.
10:25pm: Only 2% is in in the GOP primary in NY-13, but the marginally employed Mike Grimm has a big lead over possibly 'connected' Mike Allegretti, 65-35. Further out Long Island, Randy Altschuler's still leading George Demos and Chris Cox, 46-31-23, in NY-01 (31% reporting).
10:23pm: Charlie Rangel's looking in better, but still weak, shape, up to 57% now with 1% reporting in NY-15. And here's a surprise, in NY-05, not on anyone's radar: long-time backbencher Gary Ackerman is at only 65 (with 3% reporting) to the unheralded P. Maher's 35.
10:22pm: This won't surprise you, but Kirsten Gillibrand has been called the winner of the Dem Senate primary.
10:21pm: RI-02 has been called by the AP for Jim Langevin, who with 56% of the vote can be added to the long list of Reps. surviving their 2010 primary with lower-than-usual numbers.
10:18pm: Things are super-close in MA-10 right now on the Dem side. Keating leads 50.5-49.5 over O'Leary, with 60% in. But Keating may push that lead, as less of his base (Norfolk and Plymouth Cos.) has reported (53%) than O'Leary base (Barnstable: 74% reporting). Both lead 69-31 in their respective turfs.
10:17pm: Ooops, thanks to the RGA press release, I've been reminded that there was a GOP gubernatorial primary in Rhode Island. Former communications director for Don Carcieri, John Robitaille, is the nominee, beating former state Rep. Victor Moffitt 69-31.
10:15pm: No surprise here; the AP has called WI-Sen for Ron Johnson on the GOP side, with 84% of the vote. In the Gov race, with 13% in, it's Walker 51, Neumann 46, but not much Milwaukee Co. has reported yet so Walker's lead should go up.
10:12pm: The margin for Frank Guinta in NH-01 on the GOP side keeps narrowing: he's only leading at 37 now (with 30% reporting), but it's Rich Ashooh, not Sean Mahoney, who's closing. Ashooh's at 34, with Mahoney still at 20. By the way, in the NH-02 GOP primary, with only 14% reporting, Charlie Bass leads Jennifer Horn 45-34. The current tally on the Dem side (already called) is Kuster 74, Swett 26.
10:11pm: David Cicilline, despite being in the low 30s, has been called the winner in the Dem primary in RI-01 by the AP. He'll face John Loughlin in November.
10:10pm: Yikes, check out the O'Donnell photo at the WaPo!
10:08pm: We're up to 19% in NH-Sen, still not much new to say there: 45 for Lamontagne, 36 for Ayotte.

Hope you're enjoying the Fancy Feast, John Cornyn!

Castle voters in General
Wow!  Ezra Klein just said on Rachel Maddow that 44% of Castle voters said they planned to vote for Coons in the General Election if O'Donnell won.

A lot of that won't stick, though.
A la the PUMAs.

Follow the elections in Georgia at the 2010 Georgia Race Tracker.

[ Parent ]
Not so sure about that
The ideological rift between Castle and O'Donnell is considerably wider than that which existed between Clinton and Obama...

Male, 23, DC-At Large

[ Parent ]
But some of it may...
The DE GOP establishment did NOT want O'Donnell to win. They knew she'd be a train wreck in the making.

I suspect this will now go the way of our Senate race once Sharron Angle won the GOP Primary. The numbers could be close (though I doubt it since DE is an even bluer state), I just don't see O'Donnell finishing out on top. I can very much see many prominent Delaware Republicans keeping their distance while O'Donnell's campaign crashes and burns in the general.

Yes, Virginia, there ARE progressives in Nevada!
24, gay male, Democrat, NV-03 (or 04?)


[ Parent ]
Call Me Crazy...
...but I can't imagine this one is close.  Angle has wacky views and misspeaks frequently and is behind by a few points.  O'Donnell does all of this, plus defrauds her campaign staffers and tells blatant lies to voters.  Coons will win by a hefty margin I think.  The ads write themselves.

Male, 23, NJ-12

[ Parent ]
Im about to wikipedia him
so I can learn about who will be the future Senator from Delaware.

[ Parent ]
who is the future Senator
oh grammar

[ Parent ]
Oh, I'll probably agree with you...
In the coming days, we'll get a better idea of what the new state of the race is. But yes, Coons will probably have a fairly easy race just since Delaware is a bluer state and O'Donnell is WAY too far to the right here.

Yes, Virginia, there ARE progressives in Nevada!
24, gay male, Democrat, NV-03 (or 04?)


[ Parent ]
The key item something else
Coons is not Harry Reid.  Angle is only close because Reid is hugely disliked.  Coons is not a guy that people have spent 20 years disliking.

[ Parent ]
True. He doesn't have the history...
Of Reid. I'd actually modify your statement to Coons is not a guy the GOP has spent the last 5 years villifying. And if Reid didn't have the "juice" (connections), the solid campaign, and amazing field operation, Angle could actually win. (It may be close here, but Angle won't get that cigar.)

Coons has it easier in Delaware because he hasn't been such a prominent national right wing target, and the general electorate in Delaware isn't O'Donnell's prime audience.

Yes, Virginia, there ARE progressives in Nevada!
24, gay male, Democrat, NV-03 (or 04?)


[ Parent ]
Dude. Coons has won.
Please, please don't let Mike Castle run a write-in campaign.

[ Parent ]
Do you think he'ds win?
Would he win enough Dems to keep Coons from winning? I would totally support a Castle write in though.

[ Parent ]
How would he win
Without Republicans?

[ Parent ]
As a Dem, that's what I'm worried about.
Many Deleware Democrats are fond of Castle.

[ Parent ]
I'm pretty sure hes off to the Florida coast.
If hes bitter at all against O'Donnell I suspect he would just endorse Coons rather then risk the chance of her winning in a 3 way race.

CO-02 (college)/FL-15 (home).  

[ Parent ]
Any indie bid
would probably attract some pro-Castle conservative Democrats, but I couldn't see him winning; most Delaware Democrats would rather an actual Democrat, and O'Donnell will take too many Republican votes for Castle to win.

[ Parent ]
MA-04
54.8% of precincts reporting

Barney Frank 82%
Dining Room Table 18%


That is a win
For sass all around. Both your comment, and Barney Frank.

[ Parent ]
NH
Although the percents in NH R Senate keep tightening, the absolute difference is actually slightly inching up. It looks like the little towns may be about tied, in which case Lamontagne may hang on to his current vote lead.

Just for fun, I'll guess L wins by 2%.


Rockingham and Hillsborough
 Are getting narrower. If the more urban areas are narrowing, is it early votes or somethiing? I am not sure.

Could someone who knows more about New Hampshire tell me?

   Anyone else notice that's inching up on Guinta in NH-01?  Mahoney looks out of it, so that's good.

Honestly
I don't care about any other race tonight other than NH Sen, and the fact that this is taking so long to report is going to make me not look at this for about an hour.

20, Male, Democrat, CA-44 (home) CA-12 (college)

Dude, you NEED to care about the possible upset in NH-02(R), where Bass...
...is up only 41-37!  And that's with less than 20% reporting, and it's getting tighter!

If Jennifer Horn pulls this out up there, then we have a great chance to hold the seat with Kuster!  And it helps Hodes as well, with the synergy of the GOP Senate nominee having to run with a nutbag ticketmate!

but hasn't Lamontagne's base already reported?
Seems like he could still loose.

I'm stunned that Delaware Republicans just handed us a Senate seat. Menendez is a horrible DSCC chair, but sometimes it's better to be lucky than good.


[ Parent ]
By the time they call it
Hodes will have already won the seat in a November walkover.

This is a little down in the weeds..
...but it appears my incumbent New York state assemblywoman Ginny Fields (5th district) has lost her primary to a challenger from the left!

She was pretty conservative, but I'm totally floored.

This is a Republican district (I'm certain it went for McCain...not sure by how much), so I don't know if the insurgent can win in November.

But Castle and Lamontagne (hopefully) make up for it.

It's like she's staring into my soul.


[ Parent ]
TERRIFYING!!
I remember when we talked about Cafaro last cycle for whatever reason and seeing that photo; it still strikes fear in my heart.

[ Parent ]
She ran for OH-13 in 2006 and lost the primary to Betty Sutton.
I think she was mentioned as a possible candidate for OH-17 when Tim Ryan briefly ran for Lt. Governor.

For some inexplicable reason, she is the minority leader in the state senate now.

Now I feel awful for even having mentioned her.
I need to remember that this image of Cafaro is as frightening as it is hypnotic, and just as I have a desire to keep looking back at it in spite of myself, people still feel compelled to post the image.

[ Parent ]
Oh. She's a Democrat.
And... ooh... her current picture on the official Ohio Senate website isn't much better.  Though she's a brunette there.

Katrina Swett was the more electable candidate?

21,Democrat, NY-02, male

[ Parent ]
I don't think either can beat Bass in this climate, assuming he wins the nomination
Swett lost to Bass 57-41 in 2002, so at least Kuster is a new face (and not a Lieberman-lover).

[ Parent ]
Which is
why Swett may have been better, because it would have gotten rid of her for good.

28, Liberal Democrat, CA-26

[ Parent ]
Katrina Swett was the more conservative candidate
but shes a terrible candidate and a multiple retread. The Dems are better off with Kuster.

CO-02 (college)/FL-15 (home).  

[ Parent ]
The polling
was pretty similar.  I think Kuster is more likely to excite the base, which, in a year like this, is an asset; Swett was certainly the more moderate of the two, though.

[ Parent ]
I am listening to O'Donnell
 She sounds like a stereotypical cheerleader.

Why is Congressman James Langevin (D) only at 56% in Rhode Island-2?


He's fairly conservative for the district.
Pro-life, I believe. Though lately he's been adhering to the party line.

[ Parent ]
He's generally pretty good
on non-abortion issues, and he is pro-stem cell research. also voted for HCR twice. definitely no Stephen Lynch. however, his opponent, while a weak fundraiser and a carpetbagger, is a state rep (albeit in RI-01) so she is more legit than just a Some Dudette.

And primary challengers always seem to pop up and remind RI-02 Dems of this. While our primaries haven't been as tumultuous as the GOP's, there has certainly been some "boat rocking" on the left.

For anyone who cares, Kathleen Rice is cleaning up in NY-AG
With Eric Schneiderman in third (!).

For daily political commentary, visit me at http://polibeast.blogspot.com/ and http://twitter.com/polibeast

Product of Geography?
Rice's lead is off strength in Erie County, right? So it's probably a bit early to tell how things work-out statewide.

[ Parent ]
hmm
The City really isn't in at all yet, so Schneiderman should pick up some votes. On the other hand, Nassau County isn't really in yet either so she stands to pick up more votes too.

Are tea-partiers smarter than we think?
Here's a Redstate poster, in response to Limbaugh et al demonizing Castle supporters.

He's invoking Codevilla to imply that anyone who isn't supporting O'Donnell only wishes to empower the ruling class. That isn't fair at all.

Ok, now connect the dots....  (I love Redstate, it is the most fascinating thing to read, period.  People who think they are smarty-pants vilifying actual smarty-pants, I view reading that blog one giant political science project.  So much to figure out....)

Has anybody
Been to Red State tonight? I can't bring myself to go there. How bad is it?  

I saw a few posts
Didn't read in much, but they were comparing O'Donnell's win to Marco Rubio's, and were touting how Rubio is going to win Florida similarly to how O'Donnell is going to win in Delaware

It's times like this where I just want to scream at these retards and say FLORIDA IS NOT DELAWARE!!!!

I can hardly stand that inept attitudes over there about anything, it's the definition of anti-intellectualism.  Facepalm to the max.

I love them for it though.

20, Male, Democrat, CA-44 (home) CA-12 (college)


[ Parent ]
no no no
The Rubio comparison isnt even the best, it's them comparing O'Donnell to Mike Lee and Joe Miller.  Because a tea-bagger in Delaware is even close to electorally comparable to a tea-bagger in Utah or Alaska....

And O'Donnell is no Rubio
she's a female version of Alan Keyes.

NY-23: good news for Democrats if Doheny wins the primary because...
...Hoffman already has the Conservative line, and the split we NEED to help Owens is between the GOP and Conservative lines.  That Hoffman displaced the Republican in last year's special and has residual name recognition ensures he'll get some percentage as the Conservative in November.

But if Hoffman wins the GOP primary tonight, then he's legitimized to the larger electorate, and he has a chance in November in this anti-Democratic climate.

43, male, Indian-American, Democrat, VA-10


Doheny
He's on the Independent Party or something like that too, so they will likely split the vote anyway

But the Independents have less organic support than the Conservatives, plus in this case...

This NH primary is going to last all night
And it isn't even exciting...  Whats the deal!?

20, Male, Democrat, CA-44 (home) CA-12 (college)

Ummm, it will be if Lamontagne wins!
Then it probably means another seat once thought of as "in the bag" for Republicans actually becomes a very possible Democratic pickup!

Hell, even if Ayotte survives, Hodes has more of a chance now in NH. The GOP is being ripped apart.

Yes, Virginia, there ARE progressives in Nevada!
24, gay male, Democrat, NV-03 (or 04?)

Well
New York has passed New Hampshire for percentage of precincts counted. It's okay to report slower than Delaware, which is typically efficient counting it's numbers, but to count slower than New York is pretty pathetic.

And it can't be about New Hampshire using towns instead of counties to oversee elections. Massachusetts and Connecticut are the same way and are never this slow. I blame ACORN for this.

Too many scary pics in this thread.
And it's aint Halloween yet.

NY-13
No way Allegretti wins. In Staten Island, where he was a fav of the local establishment, Grimm leads 73-27.  

WI-Gov

Walker 55.2
Neumann 42.1

Here is a contested primary too :)

Castle losing, Ayotte losing, Malone losing in MA-10, Lazio losing, I'm losing too... my words


The New Hampshire granny
who's counting the ballots apparently sprained her thumbs.

now do you guys see
why i don't like NH?

Would it be inappropriate...
...to say "Suck it, Espada?"

Male, 23, NJ-12

Good for the Bronx
New York just became a better place to live. Espada can go back to his Mamaroneck compound until he ends up in Sing Sing.

Wait, how do you say "Suck It" in Spanish?
That would be more appropriate.

New York Senate
How many other incumbents are going down? In a dream scenario, it would be everyone.

But Espada is a nice start.

28, Liberal Democrat, CA-26


Ruben Diaz is hanging in
Too bad since he's been the leading Democratic anti-gay voice in the state Senate.

[ Parent ]
Espada and Stachowski so far
Huntley is at 52-48. Shame Ruben Diaz isn't joining them.

Greg Ball is winning the primary in SD-40 by a 60-40 margin, currently.

NY-15

I understand this is a Democratic site, but is anyone circulating petitions to run against Rangel as an independent in November?  He's wrong on a number of issues including trade not to mention the obvious ethical lapses.  Are they allowed to run as an independent after losing in the primary?  

Please donate to amcharities.org to help build more after school centers in the Miami area.  

23, Democrat, IA-2


NY
I'm pretty sure it's next to impossible in New York for that to happen.

We'll be stuck with him for 2 more years until either the state lege splits his district in redistricting or he retires.

One would hope so i'd look it up but i'm enjoying the primaries
to much atm haha.  

CO-02 (college)/FL-15 (home).

Pretty sure the independent filing deadline has passed.

Local news
Covering primaries tonight having trouble pronouncing Ovide Lamontagne and Kelly Ayotte. Pronounced it Oviday Lamontaje and Kelly Ayotee.

Scott Walker wins GOP nod in Wisconsin-GUV race


As depressing as Delaware is....
I'm finding a little bit (not much) of an excuse for optimism in Wisconsin. I'm impressed by how Ron Johnson consolidated support there after getting in the race so late: he's beating Dave Westlake, who's been in forever and was the presumed nominee for a while, 84-10. Haven't seen that kind of support from an NRCC fave at all this cycle, even against Some Dudes.

The teabaggers had better hope that 1. Angle, Buck, and Paul win (esp. the last two) and 2. Connecticut or West Virginia becomes competitive, because if the Republicans get close but miss out on taking the Senate because of their candidates, there's going to be an awful lot of finger-pointing on November 3rd.

20, CD MA-03/NH-01/MA-08


Bass up just 202
Horn would be easier right?

Absolutely
Horn is an underfunded proto-teabagger.

::crosses fingers::
We could get a delegation of all party-line votes in NH come January, even in the shit hole year of 2010.

[ Parent ]
somewhere someone called her the tea-bagger candidate
and her not being a former incumbent should help

Carl Paladino!
God bless the NY GOP. Pierre Rinfret, meet your match.

I wonder what this means for GOP downballot races in Nov.
