Primary Election Results Open Thread

By: rightwingnut2 (Diary)  |  May 8th, 2012 at 06:36 PM  | 

RESIZE: AAA

I thought I’d post this in case anyone wants to discuss tonight’s election results. The race that has generated the most buzz is Richard Mourdock’s challenge to 36 year incumbant Senator, Dick Lugar in Indiana. Also of interest to many across the nation, is the ballot measure in North Carolina to pass a constitutional amendment defining marriage as being between a man and a woman. In Wisconsin, five Democrats will battle for the right to face Scott Walker in June’s gubernatorial recall election.

Here are some links to results from the various states that are holding elections tonight.

Indiana

North Carolina

Wisconsin

West Virginia

            I knew it was Mourdock in the lead, but typed Lugar for some reason.

  • APA Guy

    Must be a huge win for the race to be called this early.

    For France, I utter these words:

    VIVA LA CONSERVATISM!!!

      and they are trying to say the Tea Party is dead. Hahaha.

      • APA Guy

        This is 2010 all over again in Indiana…the TEA Party is going NOWHERE as we steamroll Obama in November.

        • westcoastpatriette

          Dancin’ with y’all. Whoopie!

  • checkmate2012

    Great work Tea Party et al!

    I hope Cruz in TX is elected and he and Mourdock become best buds in the Senate!!

    • http://travismonitor.blogspot.com Freedoms Truth

      We need Cruz. he’ll be an upgrade from KBH.
      A few more and you’ll have a SPINE in the Senate!

  • http://nextgenerationvoters.com Bethany

    :) I think not.

    • APA Guy

      Dead my arse :)

      it looks like we are going to send jim demint, mike lee, ron johnson and marco rubio some help.

    93 of 100 counties are in:

    For
    61.08% 1,288,493
    Against
    38.92% 820,995

    Will the media stop for a second and rethink their constant drumbeat of how ‘popular’ gay marriage is, when it …. isn’t.

    A federal inmate serving time in Texas has nearly 40 percent of the vote in the West Virginia Democratic primary election, and he is close to Mitt Romey’s total on the Republican side……

    • Jack_Savage

      Except I am not sure that WVA is in play…

      • lineholder

        Then, it does make sense, doesn’t it?

        • Jack_Savage

          Yes it does.

      • acat

        I wish him good luck in this endeavor.

        Mew

        • Flagstaff

          the most illuminating of all the election results from Tuesday.

          I don’t see how it can be interpreted as anything but a lot of Democrats in WV saying

          We’re mad as hell and we’re not going to take it any more!

          If I were Obie Won Cano’beans I’d be more concerned about this than about anything else that happened. It may be what made him decide to jettison any overtures to moderates and pander to the richest segment of his base.

    • Tbone

      The crook in jail is showing up well against the crook in the White House.

      • http://travismonitor.blogspot.com Freedoms Truth

        LOL.

      • westcoastpatriette

        Everything’s bigger and better in Texas…even the inmates.

        • Tbone

          and campaign. I bet he could at least fill a high school gym.

          • commonsenseobserver

            Unfortunately…

    Looking at NC results, good news.
    Amendment One is sailing past, winning BIG. Very big.

    Romney wins NC with 65% of the vote, Ron Paul, Santorum and gingrich getting around 10% each. It’s disturbing that we have as many Dems and Republicans voting, but the silver lining is 20% of DEMS would rather put “no preference” than check of the UNOPPOSED Obama!
    This compared with Walker in Wisconsin winning 97% of HIS primary vote, a stunning affirmation of those who “stand with Walker”.

    So you have maybe 200,000 anti-Obama Dems, which if you add to the GOP base vote is a 1.2m to 800k gap, making NC look very good for Republicans in the fall.

    • dbkohl

      That is unbelievable… I mean, no surprise that Obama got the nod for the Dems, but to have 1 in 5 of his OWN PARTY vote no preference… amazing.

  • http://www.rightspeak.net/search/label/-Right%20Wingnut rightwingnut2

    Manchin refuses to say if he voted for Obama, tells AP he votes for what makes sense, doesn’t just say what WV voters want to hear.

    • acat

      Do you think he’s a blue dog or a donkey with a shoddy paint job?

      Mew

      • http://www.rightspeak.net/search/label/-Right%20Wingnut rightwingnut2

        …and switch parties.

        • acat

          If he switches now, what’s McConnell gonna give him?

          If he waits a little while, he can cut a better deal.

          Mew

          • Dave_A

            Nets him nothing if the GOP takes the Senate.

            There is also probably a bit of a unionisim issue, as coal-states are generally union-blue – and he’ll lose their support if he goes GOP.

          • acat

            he doesn’t have that much seniority, and the Senate *runs* on seniority.

            If the Senate goes noticeably more Conservative, McConnell may be happy enough for Manchin’s moderate support to give him a plum committee assignment, eh?

            Mew

          • http://www.rightspeak.net/search/label/-Right%20Wingnut rightwingnut2

            I hope it happens.

  • Dave_A

    And get the new guy (Mourdock (sp?)??) sent to DC.
