So for me, every “interactive electoral map” the media has to offer is broken.

@Nuveena

On NBC they said there’s a rogue tweet going around that they’ve called the Massachussetts senate race, but they say they haven’t.

They’re calling it for Warren now.

CNN seems to be OK. Here anyway.

ETA: Maybe you haven’t updated your Adobe Flash Player in the last 2 hours; that seems to be the required frequency.

Called for Warren! Woot!

@Jas09

So much for the last-ditch run for PA. Fool’s Gold indeed…

Indeed.

CNN just called PA for Obama.

Take that, McTurtle. You could have let her run the CFPB but no, so now you get to deal with her every single day.

Elizabeth Warren wins the Senate seat!

[River_Hippie]

Mourdock went down?!

Now REALLY called by NBC!

[RandMcnally]

Just called for Warren.

[Jonathan_Chance]

NBC calls Mourdock the loser!

[Skammer]

Tommy Thompson loses the WI senate race according to Fox News!

And Bill O’Reilly brings forth this charming explanation of the day’s events.

Because it’s well known that Republican voters don’t “want stuff” and feel “entitled to things.” :dubious:

Part of me wants to punch him, and part of me wants to put it on billboards.

[Jas09]

And Baldwin called by FOX. Openly lesbian Senator-elect? Most excellent…

[Damuri_Ajashi]

Sherrod Brown beat Josh Mandel in Ohio. Josh Mandel had a Neocon Foreign policy and a tea party domestic policy so I don’t really know how much it means.

What a dork! From the article:

“The white establishment is now the minority,” O’Reilly said. “And the voters, many of them, feel that the economic system is stacked against them and they want stuff. You are going to see a tremendous Hispanic vote for President Obama. Overwhelming black vote for President Obama. And women will probably break President Obama’s way. People feel that they are entitled to things and which candidate, between the two, is going to give them things?”

I think the better explanation is that more people use the Internet and can find out when someone is blowing smoke up their patootie.

Warren winning and Mourdock losing were my biggest hopes for tonight after reelecting The President.

Is also interesting to see Obama catching up in the popular vote.
