12. Big turn out in my district according to my state rep

via Facebook:

Paula Pierson: With two hours to go, turnout in 93 has topped 8,000 today. Add in Early Voters and we are likely to top 30,000, a terrific turnout for a mid-term election. Please don't miss out if you haven't voted: polls are open until 7 and I could use your support!


BTW, Paula Pierson = democrat, too bad I can't get rid of Barton.

[w8liftinglady]

13. sigh..yeah,barton is pretty well a given

[tammywammy]

17. I proudly voted for Cozad

I've never voted for Joe "I'm sorry BP" Barton in my life!

[w8liftinglady]

18. so did I...but that would be like winning the lottery....

[tammywammy]

22. Yes, no shit

I mean, when Barton apologized to BP you'd think fellow dems would have been racing to donate to Cozad, but they didn't. Barton just has such a treasure chest full of big money it'll take a lot of help to unseat him, including support from outside Texas, which frankly the way people piss on Texas democrats that wasn't going to happen this time around. IF we manage to get rid of Perry things will be better during the next election, when we show the rest of the country we're not all republican here.

[tammywammy]

19. Bill White via Facebook

Bill White
For those who will be following election results, beginning with the release of the early vote sometime before 8 pm or so: we expect to be weaker in the early vote than the election day vote. And also be wary of any computer projections of a win or loss--these projections are based on historical patterns and our grassroots effort will make those type of projections unreliable in this contest.

[w8liftinglady]

20. how does that work,exactly?...through the night counting?

[tammywammy]

23. The early votes were counted first. I cannot remembers how long it took 4 years ago

Plus, we need to see Dallas, Harris and El Paso come in.

[w8liftinglady]

21. kicking to post when results start coming in...

[blogslut]

26. We also have election results in the Texas forum
