Races I'm Still Watching (and Goodnight!)

Posted By | November 3, 2009




There are a few legislative special elections I'll get to tomorrow, but other than that the only races I still have my eye one are:

-The super-close race for Nassau County Executive

-The Maine gay marriage vote -- The gay marriage law appears as though it will be overturned, but I haven't seen an official call.

-Seattle mayor

-The race for County Executive in King County, Washington, which Democrat Dow Constantine appears likely to win

-Washington's gay rights vote

Since vote-counting in Washington typically takes days (you merely have to mail your ballot by election day) and since you can check these results as well as I can, I think I'm going to turn my attention to my write up of the day's ballot measures. Look for it tomorrow on Governing.com.

Overall, it was a good night for Republicans, but also a rather bizarre night when you factor in the Bloomberg saga and the surprise in New York-23. Thanks for reading!
