How much longer before we know about Walker?

[goclark]

How does it look so far?

1. Cenk said Walker was up by three points an hour ago

But with such heavy turnout, exit polls aren't going to be reliable.

2. Thanks for the update

Afraid to watch TV because I don't want to hear from anyone but DU ~
Wish someone would start a thread with a countdown

6. Exit polls typically are

Republican in the morning/early afternoon, turn Democratic in the late afternoon/evening.

10. That's good because this fact from exit polls makes me think "ruh roh"

Early Wisconsin recall exit polls: 60 percent say recalls are only for official misconduct

3. I hope others chime in...

...as I know a bit, but not much. I knows that the media has reported that Walker was ahead 5pts going into the election. It looks like turnout us fantastic, especially in left-leaning cities like Milwaukee and Madison.

One thing to remember Is that the results from the larger cities come in last. So don't panic if we're behind for a while. We could take off as these large city returns come in.

I haven't heard much about voter fraud. I hope the Reps sten't up to their usual tricks.

20. They were making "Robo" ( spelling) calls

earlier in the day telling people lies about the Voting Procedure.

22. I am so nervous

I was watching the Big Ed show and it warmed my heart ---- great crowd cheering him on!

4. Polls in WI close at 9 PM Eastern.

It'll probably be awhile after that, though, since larger polling places can't report until after everyone in line at the closing time have voted. Figure 10 PM Eastern before we really start seeing any useful hard data.

5. I think there is a real possibility

we will not know EVEN by the time we go to bed tonight. And there is always a recount possibility.

[MineralMan]

7. Polls are still open. Vote counting will go on for hours.

Maybe tomorrow we'll know, unless it's really close.

[Akoto]

8. At best, probably really late tonight, I'd guess.

The turnout was obviously way beyond what was anticipated, and they have a heap of new voters on the pile.

I know, the waiting is agony.

24. I am just sick to get the news ~ I will never believe it was not fixed

NEVER !!!!!

I worked the Polls for John Kerry's run and I watched this " take charge lady" that became our instant "Supervisor."


She was in charge with a driver to take the votes in ---

All day long you could feel the energy of the Democrats coming in to vote, it was magical.

Next morning , when we opened the Paper ~
Our voting site went for that Rethug.

Where were all the photos of the long, long lines for the Rethugs - saw the lines and energy from the crowds of Democrats, but never the Rethugs, never the Rethugs!

[PotatoChip]

17. Hey, this is a good one.

Just saw your link and checked it out.

I like how it shows 2010 results for the different counties. Thank you!

[PotatoChip]

12. Anyone know if the big 3 tv networks and/or PBN will be carrying coverage?

I don't get the 24 hour news programs (just basic cable)

Or alternatively, any online live radio feeds?

[WI_DEM]

19. long night.

[undeterred]

21. Unless its very close we'll know by 11pm CST.

And even though there are a lot of close elections in this state, we're usually not up all night. Somebody wins, somebody loses.

23. I'm on West Coast time ~ I'll set my alarm
