3. I hear 44% is the magic number if she can't top 50%

to put her as the favorite in the runoff - so that is great news.

[tulsakatz]

5. that's amazing!

no one else is even close to her!! I'll definitely be watching this one

[SoCalDem]

6. Best part...."....and Kaloogian has lost 3 points, from 12% to 9%...."

Looks like lying didn't help him much.. (not that he ever had a chance anyway )

[tulsakatz]

9. haha.........

yeah, I was thinking the same thing when I saw his name!!

[saltpoint]

2. My fingers are crossed. Go, Francine.

Thanks for this, FLDem5.

[skids]

4. K&R good resource for later. Thanks. n/t

7. Here's a previous thread

When are the exit polls going to start coming in?

[Rose Siding]

8. 441 precincts, mostly op-scan, some Diebold touch,

bush won with 55% in 04 - BUT Boxer only lost by a few hundred in this county with only 30% reg dems.

Some other details here-

10. kick - It will be a late night for me!

[DeepModem Mom]

11. Kick!

[KoKo]

12. Go Francine! Keep us posted....Kick...........

[AAARRRGGGHHH]

13. I live in Escondido

I just voted for her but the polling place was dead. It would be unbelievable if she gets 50% in this district.

[Coexist]

27. can you tell me which districts lean right and which lean left?

It will help put the results in perspective.

Thanks.

[AAARRRGGGHHH]

43. Sorry - I'm afraid I really don't know with any certainty

which districts lean right and which lean left. Sorry!

[question everything]

28. If only 10,000 voted, all she needs are 5001.

There is also a special election in Orange County for a State Senate Seat. Between a rabid unknown rich Republican who got all the endorsements of the party regulars, and a moderate Republican who has under his belt several years on Huntington Beach City council and five years in the Assembly. So far, he is leading by a razor thin lead.

[Misskittycat]

29. I was told when I voted that it was slow because of absentee votes.

[IndyOp]

14. I'll be going to bed promptly and will expect bad news in the morning.

It is the best I can do for Busby...

The last two races I stayed up late for -- Cegelis and the guy in Texas -- both, well... I won't even say it.

I'll just say goodnight... :hi:

[Maraya1969]

15. They all say Zero now! They better not be fixing the election.

[stevedeshazer]

18. The polls haven't closed yet, dear

It's a bit soon for that. :)

[AuntiBush]

16. Fitzmas...?

Dare I hope?

[senseandsensibility]

17. Will we begin hearing results at eight?

Good luck, Francine!:kick:

[Doctor_J]

19. Why aren't the party affiliations listed with the names?

:shrug:

[nsd]

25. Busby and Young are Democrats, King is a Libertarian, ...

Clark is Peace and Freedom, everybody else is a Republican.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

26. Welcome to DU. I don't see Clark on the list.

:popcorn:

[Coexist]

20. Okay - HELP! The link kinda' went dead?!

What gives - can anyone help me?

[tulsakatz]

33. I was using Opera......

...when I went to that page, all I get is a blank page. So then I tried Firefox and it works great! I can see the whole page.

I don't know what browser you're using but you might try another one if you get a blank page.

[lumberingbear]

21. Busby 42%

Yea :bounce:

[Coexist]

23. Kaloogian - 7%

:rofl:

[Crazy Guggenheim]

24. .....

:popcorn: :popcorn:

[Crazy Guggenheim]

30. Why is it so slow?

:popcorn:

[lumberingbear]

31. Yeah...

It's been about 40 mins since those 4 precincts were reported.

[Coexist]

32. tell me - its 11:52 here

[Mz Pip]

34. Maybe they think no one

is watching??

Geez, whole states have been called quicker than this.

:dem:

[lumberingbear]

35. I hope there's not a "fix" being put in.

;(

[tulsakatz]

36. I live in Oklahoma.........

...and our polls close at 7:00 PM. They usually don't get a total count for a couple of hours.

But I know what you mean about it being slow. Why can't they go ahead and count the votes that have been cast earlier in the day and then count the ones that vote late?

[American liberal]

44. It's after midnight in Chicago. Polls closed over 3 hours ago CA time...

and they're still only posting absentee results?! What's up with that?

on edit: I take that back. They are now reporting 7.4%. Busby still at about 42%.

Goodnight. I hope to wake to fantastic news--no runoff in June! Go, Francine!

[American liberal]

47. Somebody posted in GD: Politics all paper and pen ballots,

which may explain why returns are soooooooooooooo sloooooooooooooow.

OK. I'm really going to sleep now. That 6:30 am alarm rings awfully early! nighty night!

Go Francine!

[lumberingbear]

37. Well it is 12 midnight here in Florida....

time to snooze :boring:

Goodnight all.

Hope there are good results in the morning!

48. New update with 66.5 percent reporting...

She's close to 44% now, but I'm guessing with only a third of
the precincts left (hopefully the larger ones) that she's not
going to have enough to top 50%...

49. Final result with all precincts reporting

There are still approximately 1000 absentee ballots to be counted, but it looks like it's going to be Francine against Bilbray in the runoff.
