Ok, so the 6 PM and 7 PM closing times are done now.

I'm going to take a break (I'm at work and I'm not trying to get fired). If you see any candidates in the 6/7 PM states that I missed, feel free to post them. I'll hopefully have the 7:30/8 PM states done by this afternoon.

[SilentBull]

Art Robinson (Oregon)

[squarepusher]

rand paul is running?

[klamath]

Actually instead of trying to post all the candidates just post SOS links. I believe you are going to start running into some controversy because not all members are supporting the same candidates.

[Maestro232]

Thanks for the good work. Any thought to adding state ballot questions? My State, Massachusetts, has a couple of tax rate questions for example.

[malkusm]

Actually instead of trying to post all the candidates just post SOS links. I believe you are going to start running into some controversy because not all members are supporting the same candidates.

I am posting candidates who are either (A) RLC endorsed, (B) Ron Paul endorsed, or (C) Libertarian/Independent who are favorable to us. I realize that all forum members will not care about all candidates....however, it helps to have a compiled list of candidates going forward, in order to track the voting records of the"liberty-oriented" candidates who win tonight.

Plus, we have about 5-6 forum members that I know of who are up for election tonight, and I think it's very important to highlight those folks.

As former chair and co-founder of the RLC in Indiana and resident of NW Indiana, I personally know both William Johnson and Shawn Olson. These guys are great and deserve our votes!

To Liberty!!!

[malkusm]

Candidates now added for 7:30 and 8 PM poll closing times. If you see candidates missing in any of those states, please post them and I'll add them. :)

[RoyalShock]

Tim Huelskamp is Ron Paul-endorsed (R) for Kansas' 1st Congressional district.

Doesn't matter who his opponent is, that district is the western half (plus some) of the state, mostly rural (no cities over 40k), and staunchly Republican.

[MikeStanart]

Best thread of the year? Thanks for all the hard work!

[Heimdallr]

John Dennis




You missed him.

[malkusm]

States with poll closing times of 9 PM are before are now done. If you see any omissions from these states, please let me know.

Likely won't get to the other states until later tonight, although if I find time, I'll add the candidates. :)

[dannno]

rand paul is running?

Is that Ron Paul's son?

[dannno]

John Dennis vs. Pelosi




You missed him.

Also of interest in CA:

Meg Whitmann vs. Jerry Brown (Governor)

Boxer vs. Fiorina (Senate)

Prop 19 (Legalization of MJ)
Prop 21 (State Park annual fee)
Prop 23 (Abolish CA greenhouse gas emissions standards until unemployment is reduced to less than 5.5% for an entire year)

[MikeStanart]

Is that Ron Paul's son?

No. Ru Paul's Son. :-)

[libertyjam]

In Texas in my county alone there are too many to list that you could add, so here is the link to the web page races with (L) in just about every race. I don't know if you are only listing those that may have a chance of winning or trying to get all of them but likely all of them here will not win.
http://enr.sos.state.tx.us/enr/results/nov02_154_county60.htm

Of mention is
GOV
Kathie Glass (L)
US House
Micheal Burgess (R) - have been very happy with his record for the most part.

Greg Abbott (R)

Rick Donaldson (L)
RR Commissioner

Will add all of these. RPF appreciates your contribution! :p

[MRoCkEd]

Probably not worth cluttering the list with Libertarians who won't crack 5% in any race.

[malkusm]

Probably not worth cluttering the list with Libertarians who won't crack 5% in any race.

Your call, Mr. Moderator....but if someone mentions that a candidate is good in their area, I'll try to add them. Maybe I can note which candidates are not (R)?

EDIT: I went ahead and did that.

[amy31416]

bump

[malkusm]

Candidates are now posted for the states with 10 PM eastern poll closing times. If you see any omissions from these states, please let me know. :)

[malkusm]

All candidates should now be added. Please let me know if any candidates are missing from this list.

[UtahApocalypse]

Bump

[Imperial]

I am really excited about the Senate. There are 4-5 candidates who have been a bit skeptical of neoconny positions that can win tonight: Ken Buck, Joe Miller, Rand Paul, and Mike Lee. John Raese in West Virginia may slide in if turnout is great for Republicans.

In the House the two I know who are on our side ideologically who are likely to get in are Mick Mulvaney (SC-05) and Justin Amash. I am really hoping for a BJ win.


PS. Also you have Jerry Patterson down for Ag Commissioner in TX, however I do not even see him on the ballot.
He is running for Land Commissioner. Ag Commissioner is where we should have been able to vote for Kinky Friedman but can't because the Democrats decided to support a guy with no clear path to victory.

[Son of Detroit]

Bob Roddis for Michigan Supreme Court.

Tim Walberg, Michigan 7th house district

[tpreitzel]

At this stage, this 2010 election does appear to be a repudiation of the current administration of historic proportions ... wow! This election will likely be one for the record books and one to tell your grandchildren! :)

[ihsv]

Great night to be a Kentuckian!

[tpreitzel]

Many of the winners are generally winning by HUGE margins as well ...

[tpreitzel]

More fun is upcoming within the hour as polls close out west. Personally, I'm looking forward to John Dennis' numbers.

[Agorism]

Congratulations to Mike Lee!!!

woot!

Although a slim lead, it's good to see Lee out front.

[Nate-ForLiberty]

Although a slim lead, it's good to see Lee out front.

Mike Lee won. It's been called.

[tpreitzel]

Mike Lee won. It's been called.

Too early for me, but then they have access to exit polls. I'd never call this race at this stage. ;)

[tpreitzel]

After staring at Politico's maps, I'm seeing red ... in abundance. If this trend continues out west (the polls close in another 20 minutes), I can understand why the Democrats prematurely went into hiding.

[tpreitzel]

Toomey is currently ahead of Sestak! .. but barely

92% reporting

[malkusm]

Bump!

[tpreitzel]

Rossi's leading in Washington with barely 1% reporting.

Murray now leading 51% to Rossi's 49% with 59% reporting.

[tpreitzel]

Oregon sure doesn't look good. We'll see if Art Robinson can successfully swim against the Democratic tide.

Robinson currently ahead with 2.5% reporting.

DeFazio currently ahead at 52%

59% reporting ... currently looks like DeFazio will win this race

[tpreitzel]

Can you believe Fiorina is currently leading Boxer in California? Granted, it's barely 1% reporting ... too funny

Fiorina still ahead with 2.5% reporting.

[tpreitzel]

At this point, I've simply got to reiterate that this night is headed for some sort of political record.

[wormyguy]

Can you believe Fiorina is currently leading Boxer in California? Granted, it's barely 1% reporting ... too funny

Fiorina still ahead with 2.5% reporting.

Rural California + Orange County + San Diego County are quite conservative - it matters where the votes are coming from.

(Exit polls show Boxer up 10).

[wormyguy]

Sharron Angle is way down in NV and losing her home county. Ugh.

[tpreitzel]

Rural California + Orange County + San Diego County are quite conservative - it matters where the votes are coming from.

(Exit polls show Boxer up 10).

I know. It's still funny to see Boxer behind ... We'll have to wait and see if Californians are beginning to awaken along with the rest of the country. Let's see how close those exit polls were at the end of the day.

[tpreitzel]

I think it's time to call Toomey the victor in Pensylvania...

[wormyguy]

And Boxer has pulled into the lead, where I suspect she'll stay for the rest of the night.

[paulitics]

Toomey declared winner.

[Peace&Freedom]

As of 11:55 pm in New York, with 51% of the vote in, Warren Redlich is at 26,681 votes (see source).

IF the tally is accurate, and IF it holds, the math says by the time 100% the
votes are tallied, Warren should have about 53,500 votes.

The LP in NY has apparently acquired permanent ballot status. Congratulations, NYers. Thanks to Palladino, for being so unappealing.

http://www.ny1.com/content/election_2010/election_2010_returns/

[tpreitzel]

The races for governor in Maine, Oregon & Illinois are ultra tight ...

[tpreitzel]

And Boxer has pulled into the lead, where I suspect she'll stay for the rest of the night.

Wrong! Fiorina currently in the LEAD with 20% reporting

Fiorina 47.5
Boxer 46.8

However, it probably won't REMAIN with Fiorina as the leader... too funny!

[malkusm]

The Ron Paul caucus is now 8 House members and 3 Senators, and counting (Ken Buck? Joe Miller?).

Keep an eye on John Koster in WA-2, who is in a dead heat with his opponent. Koster has been endorsed by Ron Paul, Clint Didier, and Gun Owners of America.

[malkusm]

Also a race worth watching is Morgan Philpot in UT-2, who is currently down about 5% with 50% of the votes in.

[paulitics]

The Ron Paul caucus is now 8 House members and 3 Senators, and counting (Ken Buck? Joe Miller?).

who are the 3 senators?

[tpreitzel]

In the Illinois race for governor, I'd probably ask for a recount ...

[tpreitzel]

MN-8 and CA-20 are still too close to call ...

I'm going to start going through the election results and figuring out which of our guys came out on top from this list. Should be able to get that done by tomorrow. I'll make a thread with the results.

Then, we re-evaluate and re-load for 2012. :)

An amazing night and highly effective volley at the federal government. The main characteristic identifying this election is the depth of the outrage from the federal down to the state and local levels. Look at the changes in governorships and state houses as well as the federal government. We need to do a similar feat in 2012 and cleanse more of the Republican party ... unbelievable! :)

OP is updated with winners/losers. Any candidate listed who is not listed as having won/lost means that the race is still too close to call, or information on the race was not available.

We did good work in several state legislatures last night.

5+ "liberty candidates" elected to the state legislature in: Maine, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, New Hampshire, Utah, Wisconsin

Tim Huelskamp is Ron Paul-endorsed (R) for Kansas' 1st Congressional district.

Doesn't matter who his opponent is, that district is the western half (plus some) of the state, mostly rural (no cities over 40k), and staunchly Republican.

Yep. He's now my representative. You'll probably see a few votes that are about 432-3 with Huelskamp and Amash voting "no" with Ron.

I vetted Huelskamp a while back and he was a Huckabee guy in 2008, and is definitely not perfect....but he's certainly on my list for the "Ron Paul caucus."

Ahem. Fringe? Quixotic?

...not no more!

He'll probably be similar to Demint or Coburn, so if you like those guys, you'll like Tim. If you don't like those guys, then you won't like him. Also, by the time the Republican caucus in Kansas came around, Ron Paul really didn't have any chance to win at all. Huckabee was really the only candidate with any chance at all to beat McCain. Tim may have just thought that a vote for Ron was a wasted vote. He did put on his website this year that he was proud to get Ron's endorsement. I think that Tim is much more of a limited government conservative than Huckabee.
