Corzine Victory Party - East Brunswick Hilton

Wish I could be there! (0.00 / 0)

I remember I was in that hotel for the Menendez victory party in 2006.  Great times indeed.

Any rumors from the campaign/news media?  Looks like it's going to be tight all the way down to the wire.

Very quiet (0.00 / 0)

I'm gonna head back in the room, but very few people are talking.

Scanning results (0.00 / 0)

Looks like a nail-biter. This may go down to the absentees.

I'm not sure you do. It's very tense here.

Absentee ballots (4.00 / 1)

I see Corzine keeping it close enough to go to the absentees.

Sorry, that was me replying to you, not Jason. He was still logged in on my computer, the skallywag.

It's not a particularly snappy signature, but here's what I think we need in the next NJ Democratic State Chair.

No worries (0.00 / 0)

The numbers would portend it being tense, but I remember back in 2006 that Jim Webb was down with 1% left to report, and he squeaked it out, so hoping for the best tonight with Corzine.

election is not about obama (4.00 / 1)

You'd have to be a moron to think this was election about Obama, and fortunately the exit polls are clearly telling that story too:

Just under 30% in and it is 50.5 Christie, 43.1 Corzine, 5.5 Daggett

Scott Garrett - on the wrong side of, well, everything.

Flemington locals are down (4.00 / 1)

We just lost Democratic control in Flemington, where we fought like hell to get it.

Brooke Liebowitz and Mark Legato, the 2 Democratic incumbents lost to Republicans Michelle Oberst and Marc Hain. Wide margin.  

It's not a particularly snappy signature, but here's what I think we need in the next NJ Democratic State Chair.

How is that happening - Chiappone is up by a point.

That's his fellow assemblyman. They've already won their race.

it seems to me daggett is at 6% (0.00 / 0)

at the lowest end of polls. Corzine is around the 42% you'd expect from polls.  That leaves Christie with everyone else and a big win.

Certainly seems like it's shaping up that way... (0.00 / 0)

Still got a lot of votes left to be counted, but we need to pad the Dem stronghold counties big time

Christie wins Gloucester County (0.00 / 0)

Suffolk argued Gloucester is a bellwether that predicts the results. Well, with 100% reporting, it's Christie 47, Corzine 44, Daggett 8
