First Results Thread: Nevada Isn't Even Close, 57-38%
— Ace

Congratulations, Representative Amodei.

In NY-9, Turner is concerned about fraud, and has asked that all ballots be impounded.

Turner campaign manager E. O'Brien Murray told me Tuesday afternoon that their campaign is concerned the close race in New York's 9th CD could very well be tainted by voter fraud from the David Weprin camp, and the Turner campaign does not want to be blind-sided.
"Last night we filed with one of the judges and then today we were attempting to serve Weprin. We served the board of elections last night to this morning. I'm not too sure of the timing of it," said Murray.
Under New York State law a registered voter of the state must apply for a ballot in order to get an absentee ballot. According to the Turner camp, they suspect that someone over at the board of elections sent out absentee ballots to deceased people and to people who have not requested them.
"There's been significant evidence of election fraud occurring. There have been in at least five occurrences of deceased individuals receiving absentee ballots which cannot happen legally," said Turner campaign spokesman William O'Reilly. O'Reilly added, "Other people who have not applied for absentee ballots have received ballots, which is against the law in New York State. They haven't even applied for them, but they received them."

Turner is ahead, but not by so much I feel good.

4 Just remember- this special election in no way reflects on Obama or his status as a Stuttering Clusterf*ck Of A Miserable Failure.

10 I'm feeling good. There aren't many Queens precincts left for Weprin and Brooklyn is breaking ultra-hard for Turner.

47 Also worth noting - Turner's a damn decent human being.

A woman was dying of AIDS and publicly requested that someone take care of her infant son. Turner and his wife took the boy in - and remained anonymous for 20 years besides.

93 #54 It ain't easy to be a Democrat and an orthodox Jew. Ask Joe Lieberman. Now and then you might almost get the idea that the Democratic mainstream holds any sort of sincere religious faith in utter contempt, not to mention its distaste for the sole liberal democracy in the Middle East, i.e., Israel.
