What to Watch at 7:30
Polls close on the North Carolina governor's race. We're both predicting Charlotte Mayor Pat McCrory beats Democratic Lt. Gov. Bev Perdue in the nation's closest governor's race. But he'll have to run well ahead of Obama and U.S. Senate hopeful Kay Hagan in the Charlotte-Mecklenberg area. This one is going to take a while.
The key legislative contest in this time slot is for control of the Ohio House. Democrats need four to take the chamber and will have to overcome a strongly GOP-gerrymandered map.
Polls also close in West Virginia, where Democrat Joe Manchin is a heavy favorite for reelection.
GOVERNING Politics is the place for news and analysis on campaigns and elections. If there's a ballot measure in California, a legislative election in Alabama, a mayoral election in Anchorage or a governor's race in Rhode Island, GOVERNING Politics probably is writing about it. We love everything about state and local politics, from polls and campaign ads to policy debates and demographic trends.
