Election Results Live Blogging
Tue Nov 07, 2006 at 01:59:10 PM PDT
Well, it's nearly 4:30 am here and I'm finally throwing in the towell. I'll be back to update anything that needs to be updated later.
McNerney defeats Pombo (CA-11)
Loebsack defeats Leach (IA-02)
Democrats have now won enough seats to officially win the majority in the House of Representatives
Welcome to election night and the Election Day Live Blogging Mothership! From this diary, you will be able to access all the Election Day Live Blogging results threads. This project includes over 180 races, so hopefully all the races you are interested in are being covered. The links to the races are below the fold.
Please keep idle commenting to a minimum if you can. I don't want to overload the diary with comments before results even start coming in. If it gets to be too much (500 or 600) I may turn comments off. Thank you.

How should I put up a diary?
I have a diary up but I have questions?

If you are planning to or wish to live blog results on election night, feel free to volunteer for this project. If you know anyone who might be interested in this project, feel free to refer them. This is how the plan will work:
Since there are so few races left, It'd kind of hard to impose a minimum race count on diaries now. When you select races to live blog, if your email isn't in your profile, please either email it to me at fleetadmiralj (at) gmail (dot) com or post it as a comment. Also, please make sure that the races you choose haven't already been selected (already selected races are crossed out in the diary) and please either email me or post a comment in the diary.

Live Blogging Election Results - MT-Sen and MT-AL
Fri Nov 03, 2006 at 08:05:00 PM PDT
FINAL UPDATE: Folks, I can't hang anymore. Apologies. i've been up since 5:30, and have worked really hard over the last two days. The field reporters are posting in the thread - and some I've not heard from. There are problems - but nothing I believe, at this point, to be alarmed with - with the machines. People are still in line in Gallatin County! and it is 11:37. It will be a long night. I will sleep well, but that's not to say I won't be checking very first thing in the morning. I believe Jon won, I'm sure of it.
Use this link to check up to the minute (literally) results. http://sos.mt.gov/ELB/archives/2006/elections/general/ussenate/index.asp

Election Day Live Blogging: Indiana Congressional Races, Thread 2
Fri Nov 03, 2006 at 04:15:27 PM PDT
This is merely a placeholder diary in case I need to post an additional thread on Tuesday. I will disable comments once this is posted. However, I need to somehow type at least 300 words so I don't violate the very very important Daily Kos site rules. So now I will vamp for a while.
As I mentioned in the open thread, I am not really surprised about the newest Hill Sodrel polls. Sodrel is going fast and furious with the Hill voted for tax increased crap. This one will go to the wire yet again
You'll be happy to know that this intrepid blogger is in that district however, and if I can get my wireless to work, I'll try to blog from Monroe County Democratic HQ....otherwise, it will just be my living room. Either way, See ya then! e
