Primary Open Thread

Well, Rand Paul in a blowout if you’d like a little schadenfreud at Mitch McConnell’s expense.

Early numbers for Sestak don’t look good.  42% reporting, Sestak 51% Specter 49%.

Halter leading.  62% reporting, Lincoln 43.3% Halter 42.6%.

Conway leading over Mongiardo 45% – 43%, 93% reporting.  Looks like a win.  AP calls it.

Critz 54% Burns 43%, 39% reporting.  Murtha’s seat.  53% – 45%, 70% in, AP calls it.

2 Top Specter supporters say to Mrs. Greenspan it’s over.  AP calls it.  Concession should be within the hour.  10:25 EDT.

Toomey for the Thugs- AP.

    with 76% reporting. Looking good for Conway. This is Bunnings open seat. The winner will face Paul (R)(Tea Party).

    Sestak officially takes the lead. And 2/3 of Philly has been counted. How can Specter win? He probably can’t.

    A Tea Party (R) and a Dem.I haven’t paid much attention to Conway. I will now

  21. Schadenfreud.

  23. Chris now says that people won’t be told how to vote.

    Mrs. Greenspan says the Pa. institutional Dems are mad that they were made to look bad and blame Obama.
