Barbara Boxer projected to win a fourth Senate term

U.S. Sen. Barbara Boxer is projected to win a fourth term in the U.S. Senate, based on exit poll results.

Boxer defeated former Hewlett-Packard chief executive Carly Fiorina after a bruising multimillion-dollar campaign. The Democratic incumbent bucked the national tide that saw Republicans make gains in the Senate and take control of the House of Representatives.

Boxer, 69, faced the fiercest challenge of her career amid withering attacks from Fiorina on her record in Washington and a sour anti-incumbent mood. Fiorina, 56, ran as a conservative Republican in Democrat-dominated California, touting her business credentials as a salve to Washington�s woes.

:woohoo:

1. Weird that SF news is showing Fiorina up 53-47 right now. Exit polls must tell a different tale.
