Not sure this is the right forum, but I was just online checking the same thing. I don’t see any results from USAToday or CNN online.

[The AP (via USA Today) sez:](http://www.usatoday.com/news/washington/2006-08-08-primaries_x.htm)
> [@](#):
>
> Three-term Sen. Joe Lieberman trailed in very early returns Tuesday, struggling to overcome a tough primary challenge and escape payback from his own party for supporting the Iraq war.
> Six years after Democrats backed him for vice president, Lieberman was trailing with 43%, or 7,199 votes, to political novice Ned Lamont’s 57%, or 9,399 votes, with just 6% of precincts reporting.

Finally hit drudge:

29 of 748 Precincts Reporting - 9.22%
Lamont, Ned Dem 16,799 56.65%
Lieberman, Joe (i) Dem 12,854 43.35%

I assume this is still way to early to determine… anything in McKinney’s race in Georgia?

In this day and age, they should be able to know how everyone voted as soon as the polls close, don’t you think?
