Syndicate this site (XML) Powered by Movable Type	NJ Update: CNN Exits Show Big Lead for Christie Among Independents Looking Up: Blowout lead among indies: This seems pretty darn big: In New Jersey, CNN's exit poll says Christie won independents 58-33 over Corzine, with indies making up 27 percent of the electorate. NJ Results: Very little of the vote in yet. Big Update of Dubious Provenance : Geraghty is not vouching for this number at all but he's re-tweeting a claim: Corzine and Christie knotted up at 47 apiece, according, supposedly, to leaked exit polls. ... Turnout Poor In Newark, Other Democratic Strongholds: Corzine needs minorities to turn out enough to make up 20% of voters. It appears unlikely. Although turnout has ticked up in Newark, no one is talking about strong turnout. Even Democratic hands will only predict, wink-wink, a "narrow win." More on NJ Turnout from Mary Katharine Ham. ... Pretty damn good news: In NY-23 despite the presence more or less of two Republican candidates on the ballot, Doug Hoffman is winning 71% of the GOP vote to Bill Owens’ 67% of the Democratic vote. Hoffman leads Owens 52-30 with independents. In New Jersey Chris Christie is getting 82% of the Republican vote while Jon Corzine is at 72% of the Democratic vote. Christie leads 52-29 with independents. … From the high levels of party unity it’s clear that Republicans voters see the path back to power will require staying on the same page. And whether it’s because the Democrats have bad candidates or they’re unhappy with President Obama, independents are giving the GOP very high levels of support. It should be the best Republican election night since George W. Bush got reelected. Christie, though, is not in a good position. He may be getting more of the Republican vote than Corzine is getting of the Democratic vote, but the fact is New Jersey has a lot more Democrats than Republicans. Hopefully doing well with independents will provide votes to put him over the top, but it's going to be near thing: We probably won't know until late tonight or early tomorrow morning. Whoops! Maybe not (fingers crossed knock wood spit). Turnout in McCain counties in NJ heavy. I want to preface this by noting that all of this is based only on the early voting, and is based on about a half-dozen polling places in every county in New Jersey; some known as historically Republican districts, some known as historically swing districts, and some known as historically Democratic districts. A trusted source tells me that as of noon, total turnout in the GOP the swing districts in NJ is significantly outpacing turnout in Democrat districts. The turnout ratio is not quite two to one, but it's not that far from it. Caveats Geraghty adds: Democrats vote later, etc. Also, small sample size here. Still. Thanks to AHFF Geoff.

I'll tell you the Christie results right now... Corzine wins by 238 ballots after 20 lawsuits to define "just what is a ballot." Posted by: Gringo at November 03, 2009 05:01 PM (2UVUM) 2 In New Jersey, nearly every poll before the election had Christie winning with independents, usually by double digits. Right now, I suspect it is still a turnout game. Posted by: Mallamutt at November 03, 2009 05:01 PM (V9SYy) 3 It's not over till the dead have voted. Posted by: lorien1973 at November 03, 2009 05:04 PM (IhQuA) 4 The two heaviest turnout counties are Hunterdon, which McCain carried by 13.3 percent over Barack Obama and Morris County, which McCain carried by 8.1 percent. The phenomenon is not uniform; Union Country's turnout is described as above Ocean's, and Obama carried Union by 27 percent; Ocean County's turnout is described as "good," and McCain carried that county by 18 percent. Hudson County and Essex County were described as "light." Hudson County is heavily Democratic, with Obama carrying it by 46 percent last year; he carried Essex County with 75 percent of the vote. Salem County's turnout is described as "unbelievably sleepy"; Obama carried that county by 4 percent.

Do you think we should get David Brock or Andrew Sullivan to run as a Republican for a Senate seat in 2010? Those are a couple of pretty conservative guys...my kind of conservatives! Posted by: David Scum at November 03, 2009 05:04 PM (ADbI4) 6 Sort of amazing when voters are offered a clear choice of philosophies, unclouded by doubts of "true party adherence". My next burning desire is to see how many "Actual Conservative" Democrats can be flipped to the GOP. Posted by: USCitizen at November 03, 2009 05:05 PM (x0kcN) 7 1 Why wait? I'll tell you the Christie results right now... Corzine wins by 238 ballots after 20 lawsuits to define "just what is a ballot." Don't forget me! Posted by: Hanging Chads at November 03, 2009 05:06 PM (OKZrE) 8 Fuck 'em. If the 'independents' want the New Jersey status quo, let 'em keep voting for Democrats. There's only so much we can do to attract these assholes without diluting our own brand and identity. Posted by: Tweet beats dead horses at November 03, 2009 05:06 PM (UXddJ) 9 Christie wins. Those voters aren't coming out till Obama delivers the goods he promised. Posted by: Rocks at November 03, 2009 05:06 PM (Q1lie) 10 Caveats Geraghty adds: Democrats vote later You try digging out of a grave. Posted by: Typical Dem Voter at November 03, 2009 05:07 PM (aDG19) 11 "Democrats vote later, etc." Often, days or weeks later. Posted by: Brown Line at November 03, 2009 05:07 PM (VrNoa) 12 Independents tend to vote by the adage, "Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me." People who identify as members of a particular party will tend to be more forgiving of their own party's politicians breaking promises or underdelivering, because to criticize those politicians involves taking some of the blame themselves. Thus, compared to self-identified Democrats, independents are less likely to feel the need to stick by and justify their prior votes for Obama and his fellow Democrats.

Posted by: Andrew Sullivan, just call me "fisty sully". at November 03, 2009 05:08 PM (nxUYP) 14 Democrats vote later? Wut? You can only cast one ballot if you vote later. Vote early. Vote often. Posted by: Chicago at November 03, 2009 05:09 PM (GtYrq) 15 Democrats vote late, early, from the grave, with aliases, and sometimes even twice. Posted by: Tweet beats dead horses at November 03, 2009 05:10 PM (UXddJ) 16 Posted by: Rocks at November 03, 2009 05:06 PM (Q1lie) I tend to agree. Unless or until folks get their Obama money, they won't give two shits about "some damn govnor". Posted by: Samuel Adams at November 03, 2009 05:11 PM (nxUYP) 17 Some people think V, which premiers tonight, is a commentary on Obama. I think it is a commentary on New Jersey. Because even though he appears jovial and sane, if he wins, Christie will eat the state. Don't say I didn't warn you. He is NOT Santa Claus. He only looks like Santa Claus. But underneath that blubbery exterior lies the cholesterol clogged heart of giant fat man just waiting to snort 15 lines of coke and freak out like Sam Kinison at a batchelor party. Posted by: Entropy at November 03, 2009 05:11 PM (cok/k) 18 For whatever its worth, I was the only guy there when I voted this morning in Hoboken. When Hopey McChangey won there were about 100 people at the same place about an hour earlier.(7am vs 8:30am). Posted by: Shtetl G at November 03, 2009 05:11 PM (s2Bbk) 19 I voted early this AM in NJ. Now I'm drinking. Posted by: nevergiveup at November 03, 2009 05:11 PM (TfW4T) 20 Those are a couple of pretty, conservative guys...my kind of conservatives! Oooop. Missed a comma!

If it is close the Christie will lose because Repubs don't fight this shit. Posted by: Ken Royall at November 03, 2009 05:12 PM (9zzk+) 23 "Democrats vote later, etc." Yes, just try getting an ACORN organizer out of the sack before noon. Posted by: joncelli at November 03, 2009 05:12 PM (RD7QR) 24 Please stop talking about Sullivan. I had almost forgotten that I once, a long time ago, thought that he had an interesting mind and original thoughts. Now of course he's an AIDS-demented, blubbering, drooling idiot. I voted early this morning and I was surprised at the number of people voting. I tried to distract my Democrat neighbor with a pretty picture and some baubles, but it didn't work.

I'm johnny-on-the-spot right outside the White House in Lafayette Park, next to the Buddhist/Hindu-ish guy who always beats that drum, just waiting for my moment to let 'er rip!

Hoffman and McConnell only- still a flaming skull Hoffman, McConnell & Christie-flaming skull with cowbell (preferably not Bon Jovi, I don't give a shit he's from Jersey and so is Christie. Bon Jovi is evil!) Hoffman, McConnell, Christie and CA-10 - All the above and accidental lesbian pron.....ABOVE the fold. Posted by: Rocks at November 03, 2009 05:17 PM (Q1lie) 34 Saw this posted a bit ago: A Well-Connected Vet of Campaigns Tells Me [Kathryn Jean Lopez] Everything the RNC is looking at data-wise right now on New Jersey looks good for Christie. For what that's worth hours before the polls close... Posted by: Jay at November 03, 2009 05:17 PM (ZxE4n) 35 A true nightmare for Obama would be a R pulling close in CA-10. Any word on turnout from the left coast? Posted by: Jean at November 03, 2009 05:17 PM (5ddCw) 36 The turnout ratio is not quite two to one, but it's not that far from it. Two things spur that kind of turnout. Starry eyed enthusiasm for the candidate, or a smoldering anger at the current state of affairs. Tell me again Mr Axelrod..... (or anybody else that dismissed the teabaggers) .....that the Tea Parties weren't real and would have no electoral implications. Posted by: fixerupper at November 03, 2009 05:18 PM (J5Hcw) 37 Caveats Geraghty adds: Democrats vote later, etc. Well, with traffic and driving around from state to state, of course Democrats are going to vote later! Posted by: Gloria Steinam at November 03, 2009 05:18 PM (qP2BK) 38 Did anyone else hear about Obama's pithy answer when asked if he was going to be getting reports on the election returns tonight? What a douche this guy is... Posted by: Jay at November 03, 2009 05:18 PM (ZxE4n) 39 "Ladies and Gentlemen, tonight, another replay of 1994, when the voters of this fine country had a temper tantrum, and voted in the Evil Republicans. This time, however, the apocalypse is nigh, as, not only have the voters thrown a temper tantrum, they've shit themselves, stomped their feet whilst holding their breath until their faces turn blue, vomited down their shirts, and, indeed, shredded the very Constitution by their disgusting installation of TRUE CONSERVATIVES into office, to replace the minions of Hell I have grown so close to over the several years since my unfortunate demise. Satan is pissed! He's called Harry Reid on the [Flaming] Red Phone several times today to express his displeasure, but Harry staunchly refuses to answer. Therefore the Dark Lord (not Obama, you morons, the REAL Dark Lord), has summoned all of us Zombie Newscasters and Politicians (Cronkite, Wellstone, Myself, Teddy Kennedy, Russert, "Big Ed" Bradley) to help, and we will . . . Of course, it's tough to help when we're condemned by G-D to burn for eternity in a lake of burning blood and piss, but at least we can let out a rousing cheer from the pits of Hell: 'Go Democrats!'" Posted by: Zombie Peter Jennings at November 03, 2009 05:18 PM (sZOIi) 40 This is what the anti-social-cons don't get: The socially liberal fiscal-cons we elect tend to vote for other stupid liberal shit. For instance, affirmative action, Cash for Clunkers, Spendulus, Cap & Trade, Sonia Sotomayormccheeses, Hate Crime Laws, Lilly fucking Ledbetter, midnight basketball, etc. The liberal Republicans have a knack for being sucked into all the liberal positions, not just abortion.

Posted by: TimothyJ at November 03, 2009 05:21 PM (IKKIf) 46 "None of your freaken buisness now vote hows I tells ya to" Heh - someone has probably already cast my vote for Corzine, even though I live in TN. At least I'm still alive, so my dead vote doesn't count. Posted by: Intrepid at November 03, 2009 05:22 PM (92zkk) 47 What's the under/over on the new mayor? Posted by: nevergiveup at November 03, 2009 05:16 PM (TfW4T) The new mayor will not be as stupid as the old one. I think both of the main candidates did not fall for the okey doke sting that got Petey Camarano. So I give the new mayor 2 years (there is a lot of money floating around in my small one square mile city). Posted by: Shtetl G at November 03, 2009 05:22 PM (s2Bbk) 48 It was also a special Mayoral election because our Mayor only lasted 19 days before getting indicted for bribery.

(or anybody else that dismissed the teabaggers) .....that the Tea Parties weren't real and would have no electoral implications." You are assuming Axelrod believed what he said. I have to disagree, Axelrod was well aware of the impact the Teabaggers were having and he was trying to marginalize them and throw some cold water on the movement through media hit pieces. Today's results are what Axelrod feared could happen if the movement continued to gain steam. The VA and NY-23 wins are just going to embolden teabaggers further now. Seems like the kos kids picked a good name for the tea party people, caused the dems are going to get teabagged big time tonight.

We have those cocksucking Democrats looking over their shoulders, that's for sure! Posted by: Tweet's brain at November 03, 2009 06:37 PM (UXddJ) 81 Dammit, they're gonna freakin' steal it. FUUUUUUUUUUUU................. Posted by: RarestRX at November 03, 2009 06:38 PM (rmNST) 82 Exit polls always favor dems, dead heat means Christie is probably up by a few % at least. Posted by: kefka at November 03, 2009 06:40 PM (n1uMU) 83 Hopefully Christie is doing better than a dead heat. Dead heats fall within the margin of fraud in NJ. 47-47 = Corzine victory (he is now up on Intrade) New Jersey deserves itself. Posted by: Zanzibar Buck-Buck McFate at November 03, 2009 06:40 PM (Hj9yW) 84 The Dems just need to figure out how many votes they need to steal to win, and then simply go about doing it. Im sure they brought in some operatives from Minnesota to go over the old "ballot box found in the trunk of a (DFL) poll worker's car" gambit Posted by: Ombudsman at November 03, 2009 06:41 PM (y4B2y) 85 But exit polls usually favor Democrats by a few points. If it's 47/47 in New Jersey, Christie may actually be up, say, 49/45. Remember 2004 when the exit polls showed John F-ing Kerry would sail to the presidency? Posted by: Shooter McGavin at November 03, 2009 06:42 PM (cxGtL) 86 Why wait? I'll tell you the Christie results right now... Corzine wins by 238 ballots after 20 lawsuits to define "just what is a ballot." Don't forget me! Or me!

Posted by: Ombudsman at November 03, 2009 06:51 PM (y4B2y) 94 Don't forget if it's close the NJ courts allowed Frankenberg to fill the empty corrupt Torricelli suit with the ole bait and switch gambit.

Posted by: Gran at November 03, 2009 06:58 PM (kmmbv) 101 85 But exit polls usually favor Democrats by a few points. Yeah, but who knows now? The media is so biased, I wouldn't be surprised if they do what they did in the Kerry polls which is to release fake info so as to buoy the spirits of Democrats. Maybe they're accurate. Maybe they're overestimating R support to account for unintended biases inherent in exit polling. Maybe more Rs are talking to exit pollsters this year.

Posted by: DngrMse at November 03, 2009 07:04 PM (wynRm) 106 Intrade is probably factoring in the fraud part in this. When Christie wins by a few hundred votes the odds are that Corzine will be able to "find" the extra votes he needs to win.

Posted by: OregonMuse at November 03, 2009 07:20 PM (eR37w) 114 It is really amazing how we're just considering fraud to be de rigeur. The fight is in the courts. We have to start making the argument that even a whiff of voter fraud disenfranchises legitimate voters. For example, a GOP state AG should charge any case of voter fraud with millions of counts. If somebody knowingly commits voter fraud, they disenfranchise every single voter. If a vote is counted that shouldn't have been -- based on the law before the election took place -- then it disenfranchises voters who voted properly. And we have to use the word "disenfranchise". Posted by: AmishDude at November 03, 2009 07:20 PM (T0NGe) 115 Just voted for Christie in West Orange. Took about 7 minutes, all in (so get out there and vote if you haven't already!). Brought my 11 year old in with me (his class is all over election-type stuff right now as its topical). Showed him the red line, he helped push some buttons, and then he hit the big red button (I like that the button to cast your ballot is red!). Aww. My parents took me to the poll when they voted for Nixon in 1960. For years I thought a political machine was that big thing with the levers where you cast your vote.

In NJ, I fear the rules have changed. Since the ultimate enforcement on the law is Holder's Justice dept. the local Dems might feel frisky enough to try and steal an election that's within 2, 3 or even 5%.

Is he hooking up another collection of mouthbreathing roadkill to one of his sympathy-meters? Posted by: TexasJew at November 03, 2009 08:40 PM (1doBx) 198 Christie up 55 to 38 with 4% in. Posted by: Bill Mitchell at November 03, 2009 08:41 PM (Gm9rd) 199 Not much. We're counting real votes now, so who gives a shit? Count me too. Posted by: Fake Votes at November 03, 2009 08:42 PM (DIYmd) 200 "In Trade" has Corzine down 20 pts. to thirty percent in the last half hour!!! ;-) Posted by: Ad rem at November 03, 2009 08:42 PM (yPHLS) 201 The biggest indicator of how well Christie is doing right now is the In-Trade number. He's up 61 to 33 there. Nice. Posted by: Shooter McGavin at November 03, 2009 08:42 PM (cxGtL) 202 I Christie manages to win and win by more than 5 points, that is a HUGE BLOW to Obama since he campaigned hard for Corzine.

Posted by: GMan at November 03, 2009 08:49 PM (zQiqq) 209 In my experience, the big dem districts will hold their vote counts until right at the end to see how many votes they need to make Corzine the winner.

Posted by: GMan at November 03, 2009 08:50 PM (zQiqq) 211 okay, not to be a prick, but we can all see the link to the NJ election results that Ace posted.

Posted by: CoolCzech at November 03, 2009 08:55 PM (QECjC) 221 I'm just waiting for a HUGE vote dump for Corzine at the last minute. Posted by: Bill Mitchell at November 03, 2009 08:55 PM (Gm9rd) 222 I'd like to see Christie widen that lead a bit, before the heavy dem districts, (Newark, Camden, Graveyards), start reporting. :/ Posted by: DngrMse at November 03, 2009 08:55 PM (wynRm) 223 Christie: 151,000 Corzine: 124,000 The robot dog from "Battlestar: Galactica": 16,000 Posted by: Crusty at November 03, 2009 08:55 PM (qzgbP) 224 Virginia is nice ('specially since I live here), New Jersey will be great, and if we can swing the special in NY I'd be one happy man for the next week or so. Posted by: Rasputin at November 03, 2009 08:56 PM (JCSGM) 225 #217 No way. You're not absolved until you've bought the assembled masses a round. Posted by: DngrMse at November 03, 2009 08:56 PM (wynRm) 226 In 2005, Gloucester county was a perfect microcosm of the rest of NJ, having almost the exact same vote % for Corzine as the final tally in the state. In 2008, again, Gloucester County's vote % for Obama was very, very close to the state-wide average. Why do I say that? Because with 78% of the precincts reporting, Christie leads in Gloucester County by 2.5 points. Still to close to call, but I'd say that's good news. Posted by: Mariner at November 03, 2009 08:57 PM (ohmHG) 227 Long way to go yet. NRO (final countdownblog) notes that Christie HQ has an 'open bar' going and is ready for a long night. /and 300+ lawyers on standby if needed Posted by: ArandomPerson at November 03, 2009 08:59 PM (0a5L4) 228 Christie: 52% Corzine: 41% Daggett: 6% 17% of districts reporting Posted by: obama is a traitor at November 03, 2009 08:59 PM (Qt4Y7) 229 Well, right now it looks like McDonnell did about 5% better than his best polling numbers and Christie is doing about 5% better than his best polling numbers. This tells us that pollsters are oversampling Democrats by at least 5%. Posted by: Bill Mitchell at November 03, 2009 08:59 PM (Gm9rd) 230 #227 Christie has the open bar, and Drew ends up holding hands with Hoffman. Hahahaha! Posted by: DngrMse at November 03, 2009 09:00 PM (wynRm) 231 The margin in VA (with 80% reporting) is still 21.4%. That's a fucking rout. That's amazing. Posted by: Rasputin at November 03, 2009 09:00 PM (JCSGM) 232 16 percent: Christie 54 Corzine 40 or fight. Posted by: LC LaWedgie at November 03, 2009 09:01 PM (o+Cwv) 233 Okay, polls are now closed in NY. More numbers, please, nom nom nom. Posted by: Peaches at November 03, 2009 09:01 PM (9Wv2j) 234 Wow, Corzine just got a massive vote dump and narrowed race from 11 points to 5 points in one swath. I expected that. All those fake absentee ballots being counted. Posted by: Bill Mitchell at November 03, 2009 09:02 PM (Gm9rd) 235 Real Clear Politics seems to have a running tally going.

Cantor must be really short. Posted by: Women at November 03, 2009 09:03 PM (92zkk) 238 I've been refreshing the link ace posted for NJ results, and it's been at 0.00% the whole time. Don't know why. I'm getting the results from New Jersey Network election coverage on TV. Posted by: obama is a traitor at November 03, 2009 09:04 PM (Qt4Y7) 239 Damn, sock OFF! Y-Not - I noticed the same thing! They're like the Odd Couple. Posted by: Intrepid at November 03, 2009 09:05 PM (92zkk) 240 Typically, a 6 point lead with 28% of the vote in would be insurmountable. However, this is NJ and I would not be surprised if they have 100,000 Corzine votes sitting in a garage somewhere.

Who wants to trade them to China for a mule? Posted by: TexMex at November 03, 2009 09:07 PM (rWkts) 243 Why was Rove talking about a double-digit lead for Christie? Was he referring to exit polls? Posted by: Y-not at November 03, 2009 09:10 PM (sey23) 244 Christie back to +9%... Girlie foofoo drinks for everyone!!!!1 Posted by: The Klan at November 03, 2009 09:12 PM (YX6i/) 245 If Corzine can overcome a 9 point deficit with almost 50% of the vote in, I think it will be the first time I've ever seen that big of a gap closed this late. I ame SURE all the heavily Dem dustricts are holding their numbers back to see how many they need. Posted by: Bill Mitchell at November 03, 2009 09:12 PM (Gm9rd) 246 Why was Rove talking about a double-digit lead for Christie? Was he referring to exit polls? He might have been talking about independents. Posted by: kefka at November 03, 2009 09:13 PM (n1uMU) 247 Intrade Corzine down to 29, Christie has a big fat 60. Posted by: Shooter McGavin at November 03, 2009 09:13 PM (cxGtL) 248 Christie is doing VERY well in Monmouth County. Monmouth county is the most populated GOP-leaning county. This sounds to me like a strong, energetic GOTV effort on the part of the GOP. Yet more good news. He's up 32 points, while he would only need to be up 19 points if the voting breakdown was identical to 2005. And with 92% of the precincts reporting, Christie is leading by 3.3 points in Gloucester County. Posted by: Mariner at November 03, 2009 09:13 PM (ohmHG) 249 no offense to him but Hoffman is not good on TV Posted by: YRM at November 03, 2009 09:14 PM (xNw7B) 250 #243 At one point, he was up over ten percent on Corzine...even now, he's up just over 50k votes on Corzine. Newark, and Camden together can overcome that lead though. It depends on turnout. I wish the NJ state site included a map. Posted by: DngrMse at November 03, 2009 09:14 PM (wynRm) 251 Man this guy Hoffman really is a dork, God bless him.

My source (29%) is either slower or more conservative in getting out the numbers. Posted by: obama is a traitor at November 03, 2009 09:18 PM (Qt4Y7) 265 Hoffman would probably the best accountant you could ever hope for. Knows his numbers, doesn't party much. Keeps to the books.

Posted by: Bill Mitchell at November 03, 2009 09:19 PM (Gm9rd) 269 This thing is a done deal. In trade has Corzine down to 10. There's no way to recover from that. I'm calling it for Christie.

Camden not showing any votes yet? what are they waiting for? Cook County Part Two? Posted by: 2010orBust at November 03, 2009 09:24 PM (/mbDE) 282 Yep, I agree that a 100,000 vote lead will be difficult to overcome, even with vote cheating. If Christie wins this by double digits, that is HUUUGE. Posted by: Bill Mitchell at November 03, 2009 09:26 PM (Gm9rd) 283 Gloucester finished reporting. Christie won by 3.4 points. Again, Gloucester was an exact replica of NJ as a whole in both 2005 and 2008. I'm starting to feel pretty good about this race. By the way, if there's any bad news for the GOP so far, it's that McDonnell's coattails aren't extending to the General Assembly seats as much as some hoped. The GOP will pick up a few seats, but I doubt they hit the 5-8 number some were predicting. Posted by: Mariner at November 03, 2009 09:26 PM (ohmHG) 284 Christie: 52% Corzine: 41% Daggett: 6% 37% of districts reporting Posted by: obama is a traitor at November 03, 2009 09:26 PM (Qt4Y7) 285 @281 - of course, they need to know how many "votes" to "count".

Posted by: Sassypants at November 03, 2009 09:29 PM (RZYUj) 293 And just like that - from the 37% update to the 44% update, Jon CorSachs shaves 5-points and 30K off Christie's lead. Posted by: DocJ at November 03, 2009 09:29 PM (AWzOz) 294 50,000 votes for Corzine and none for Christie? Must be all those absentee voters from camden being counted.

Posted by: LC LaWedgie at November 03, 2009 09:37 PM (o+Cwv) 303 At 79% of the precincts reporting, Christie has a 0.5 point lead.

Posted by: Peaches at November 03, 2009 09:43 PM (9Wv2j) 316 307, Burlington can go both ways, has become increasingly GOP in recent years though, but Obama ripped there last year IIRC. Salem's a toss up. Posted by: LikeATimeBomb at November 03, 2009 09:44 PM (dwwPD) 317 Caveats Geraghty adds: Democrats vote later, etc. In fact some times they do it after the election is over with. Posted by: TheQuietMan at November 03, 2009 09:44 PM (pbnf9) 318 I believe Salam is republican as is burlington although they both went to Obama last election. I think Salem has a republican rep in congress. Posted by: Reality Man at November 03, 2009 09:44 PM (l0WG5) 319 318, correct. Salem's one of those places that tends to vote GOP in bigger elections and Dem in smaller ones.

Posted by: Bill Mitchell at November 03, 2009 09:46 PM (Gm9rd) 322 309 - I grew up there, haven't been back in 12 years but from what I know Dem counties - Essex, Union, Hudson, Camden, Mercer, Passaic, Bergen, Atlantic GOP counties - Sussex, Warren, Hunterdon, Morris, Salem, Somerset, Ocean, Cape May, Cumberland Mixed - Middlesex, Monmouth, Gloucester, Burlington Caveat - The Dems hold most of the counties with the much high populations Posted by: kbdabear at November 03, 2009 09:46 PM (sYxEE) 323 If Burlington and Salem are republican, Christie could win this by double-digits. Posted by: Bill Mitchell at November 03, 2009 09:47 PM (Gm9rd) 324 50-44 with 58% reporting Posted by: Peaches at November 03, 2009 09:47 PM (9Wv2j) 325 It also depends how much of the other counties have reported. for example a heavy Corzine county may have only reported 1% so far, we will just have to see here. Posted by: Reality Man at November 03, 2009 09:47 PM (l0WG5) 326 For what it's worth, NY Times calling NYC for Bloomberg. Posted by: LikeATimeBomb at November 03, 2009 09:48 PM (dwwPD) 327 thanks for the data kbda Posted by: Bill Mitchell at November 03, 2009 09:48 PM (Gm9rd) 328 Bleah. My friend in NJ tells me game-changing numbers are incoming. :/ Posted by: DngrMse at November 03, 2009 09:48 PM (wynRm) 329 Do ya'll remember that mayor that sounded drunk election night in a county in Illinois who was holding up the vote? OMG if I was not so pissed off that night it would have been funny. I see that crap happening now. Posted by: 2010orBust at November 03, 2009 09:49 PM (/mbDE) 330 Who is your friend and what do they have to do with the election? Sit on their ass and watch the results like the rest of us? Posted by: Editor at November 03, 2009 09:50 PM (YX6i/) 331 One caveat, looks like some of the heavy dem counties are only about 75% in. any of the Republican counties in more. We'll see. Posted by: Bill Mitchell at November 03, 2009 09:50 PM (Gm9rd) 332 again 100k votes this late is tough to overcome. especially since burlingto probably wont hurt Christie and Salem will help him. Posted by: Bill Mitchell at November 03, 2009 09:51 PM (Gm9rd) 333 #330 Pretty much. He's getting his info from the radio, I think. But he's there, man. Posted by: DngrMse at November 03, 2009 09:52 PM (wynRm) 334 I'm looking at the "color" codes for this If Corzine only took a high percentage in Essex and Hudson, he might just lose this too much for ACORN to cover Posted by: kbdabear at November 03, 2009 09:52 PM (sYxEE) 335 Whoever asked about that 50K vote batch at once for Corzine, it probably came from Hudson County. They're so crooked there that Corzine would get those votes if he was dead. Posted by: kbdabear at November 03, 2009 09:53 PM (sYxEE) 336 good news, burlington coming in for Christie by 6%. Posted by: Bill Mitchell at November 03, 2009 09:54 PM (Gm9rd) 337 The kiss of death for Christie will be, of course, if there is are "recounts." After all, one wag recently noted that each time there was a recount during the Iranian elections Ahmedhandjob kept getting more and more votes... just like in America. Posted by: CoolCzech at November 03, 2009 09:55 PM (QECjC) 338 Good news. 84% of essex is in and Corzine is down by 100,000. Posted by: Bill Mitchell at November 03, 2009 09:55 PM (Gm9rd) 339 Remember when a 7-point GOP lead with 64% of precincts in felt safe, and you didn't worry about things like voter fraud? Yeah. Me neither. Posted by: crusty the wonder sock at November 03, 2009 09:55 PM (7lAxC) 340 I'm getting a very strong feeling that this race is over. I checked the estimated voter turnout per county and compared it to turnout in 2005. To put it bluntly, turnout was higher in red-leaning counties than blue counties. Couple that with the excellent performance Christie had in these counties, and I'd say this is a race that's going to be outside the realm of a recount. Unfortunately, I have a bad feeling about NY-23... Posted by: Mariner at November 03, 2009 09:56 PM (ohmHG) 341 678.5K Christie vs. 614.2 K Corruptzine at the moment, up on Drudge Posted by: CoolCzech at November 03, 2009 09:57 PM (QECjC) 342 Wow, Hoffman was polling 15 points ahead of Owens in NY-23 and right now he is getting slaughtered. Weird. That may end up being good as it will scare us away from 3rd party BS in 2010. Posted by: Bill Mitchell at November 03, 2009 09:58 PM (Gm9rd) 343 anyone checking the numbers for NY-23? Posted by: Sassypants at November 03, 2009 09:59 PM (RZYUj) 344 Cool, Drudge is waaaay behind. Check http://elections.nytimes.com/2009/results/new-jersey.html Posted by: Bill Mitchell at November 03, 2009 09:59 PM (Gm9rd) 345 #341 Refresh your browser...Drudge shows Christie at 722k. Posted by: DngrMse at November 03, 2009 10:00 PM (wynRm) 346 Via RCP; Nearly an hour after polls closed in NY, results for the 23rd are coming in at a snail's pace. The NYT page has 8% reporting, with Owens winning 53% to Hoffman's 42% and Scozzafava at 4%. But that's a total of less than 10,000 votes. Posted by: flenser at November 03, 2009 10:00 PM (xWnUn) 347 722.7K Christie vs. 631.9 K Corruptzine... If Christie pulls this off, and pulls it off BIG... Poor Dingy Harry Reid will have to announce that a vote on Healthcare Reform may have to be put off until... oh, I don't know... 2030? Posted by: CoolCzech at November 03, 2009 10:00 PM (QECjC) 348 Sassy, Ace has a link up at the top of the NY-23 post. Right now Owens is ahead by 5% with 77 of 606 precincts reporting. Posted by: Peaches at November 03, 2009 10:00 PM (9Wv2j) 349 #342 Have you got a link with up to date NY-23 election results? Posted by: DngrMse at November 03, 2009 10:01 PM (wynRm) 350 Christopher J. Christie Rep. 822,518 49.9% Jon S. Corzine Dem. 722,070 43.8 ..per NY Times Posted by: CoolCzech at November 03, 2009 10:02 PM (QECjC) 351 thanks, Peaches. Posted by: Sassypants at November 03, 2009 10:02 PM (RZYUj) 352 From what I am seeing, Corzine will have to take pretty much 100% of the remaining votes in Dem leaning counties to bridge the gap. Considering he is only getting 68% of Essex with 84% in, I don;t think that is gonna happen. I'm calling this for Christie. Posted by: Bill Mitchell at November 03, 2009 10:04 PM (Gm9rd) 353 I'm calling this for Christie. Posted by: Bill Mitchell at November 03, 2009 10:04 PM (Gm9rd) Remember though, ACORN and the SEIU thugs are on hand, prepared to help body temperature-challenged persons vote... Posted by: CoolCzech at November 03, 2009 10:05 PM (QECjC) 354 Christie now 103,000 ahead. How can Fox saying this is that close? It isn't.

That is, "You can't win with bad teeth..." Posted by: Bill Mitchell at November 03, 2009 10:09 PM (Gm9rd) 359 Christie now 103,000 ahead. How can Fox saying this is that close? It isn't.

Posted by: Dino Rossi at November 03, 2009 10:12 PM (qP2BK) 361 I'm getting nervous that the vote counting has slwoed to a trickle in NJ. Makes me think they are printing votes off in the back. Still, 103,000 really tough to overcome this late. Posted by: Bill Mitchell at November 03, 2009 10:12 PM (Gm9rd) 362 Hmmm. NBC just reversed it's NYC call for Bloomberg.

Posted by: Bill Mitchell at November 03, 2009 10:31 PM (Gm9rd) 385 I was just talking to my little sister who lives in South Jersey. She said she won't start rejoicing until Corzine concedes. She forsees him resorting to chicanery and skullduggery. He won't go quietly in the night. He will drag this on forever.

Posted by: obama is a traitor at November 03, 2009 10:57 PM (Qt4Y7) 393 I can't say I wish I lived in NJ. But it could be fun to have a good seat. Christie was a crime-fighting, corruption-busting state AG. My guess is his replacement will be the same. Anybody know, yet? If so, with the governor on the same page, it could be interesting.
