Quinn is defeated...NO WORDS

You wouldn't know it if you lived in California. Hell, I kept forgetting there was even a Gubernatorial election this year.

The worst thing about tonight is that nearly a million people will continue not getting healthcare in Florida. I assumed Scott was fucked, everything seemed to be leading towards it too. Even tonight, Crist out performed Obama in multiple areas whereas Scott performed worse than he did in 2010.
Scott embarrassed himself in the debates and still won. Wow.

Hey what the fuck happened to Hagan though? Earlier she was kicking ass!

The only governor race I'm not paying any attention to is my state's.
There's really no point in doubting Jerry Brown winning.
I honestly have no idea what the fuck happened there. Everything seemed to be going Crist's way.

Off year, Florida, the old people capital of America. It's recipe for Republican dream election.

Today was not the right day to have to wear a heart monitor all day.
Doctor: I see that your heart rate was a bit high from around 7-8 at night and your journal says you were cursing out the US electorate. But you aren't in the US.
Me: Thank fuck.

Something called Neel Kashkari.
My hypothesis: people don't like politicians who change parties. I can imagine a bunch of people voting for Scott just out of spite.
Yeah.
Illinois, despite it's blue tint in Presidential election years, isn't shy about electing GOP governors, and Quinn wasn't liked at all.
Quinn actually did better than expected when you consider how apparently blood red tonight's electorate is.

Damn, Hagan was doing so well and then Tillis came fucking back.
The electorate this year seemed to be blood red. Something the pollsters didn't pick up at all. Even PPP was caught off guard.
Also, Lol at my state (Illinois) voting in a guying wanting to abolish the minimum wage yet also voted to raise the minimum wage to $10 in the same night.
WTF?!?
The only way I can explain that people actually don't believe what the GOP candidate say they will do.

It looks like Oregon is going to legalize pot. After tonight there might be really strong demand.

Senate means nothing. The real depressing thing is the governor races. Walker, Scott, and Brownback...

Really surprised by the Maryland loss. Guess that probably ends O'Malley's national aspirations.

Voted for Kasich since I voted party line. Feels good to finally be able to spread my conservative wings here on GAF and not be hounded by a bunch of liberals. Now if we can just finish getting abortion banned, open drilling up in state parks, and actually get Senate Bill 5 passed, things would be great.
... Shit, I can't say any that with a straight face. I voted for the Green Party candidate and the Republicans' abortion restriction bill from earlier this year is horrible. They pretty much have one party control at the state level. It's not fun and I'm hoping to leave the state soon.

Hope Obama says fuck it and does many executive orders just to fuck with the GOP.
Same. I expected a Senate loss (was hoping at least Hagan/Udall could pull it out) but those governor races...dear lord. How.
The post-election data is going to be chilling.

If Obama doesn't fire Debbie Waschermann Schultz by midnight tonight, I'll rage something fierce.
He really should. Force the GOP's hand in their impeachment threat. If they do it they're screwed, if they don't they're screwed.
