1. Looks like Kaloogians "Bahgdad" Adventure didn't help

Before that, I think he was polling a close 2nd.

2. Nowhere near good enough...

These totals really work out to:

Republicans 54.77%
Democrats 45.23%

That's going to be a big margin to overcome in the runoff. :-(

3. Still a good showing for a "safe" Republican seat

We can win the house but this seat won't be one of our pickups.

4. Yep. . .

Another moral victory on the way to a "virtual" unanimous Democratic House of Reps.

[MaineDem]

5. Exactly

Unless she has 50% +1 it's not really good news.

It'll be extremely difficult to win this seat but she has the ability to do it.
