When I voted this morning (Westmoreland Co.), I was the only voter at the polling place! My husband voted on his way to work, and same thing for him!

It will be interesting to read about turnout by county tomorrow.

More Republicans than Democrats, though.

Hillary won Westmoreland. Sestak, though, did not do well here. Let me know if you need help getting the results.

I was going to post that I couldn't find them in the Trib, but I dug around and found them online. I am so disappointed about Sestak. I thought for sure he would be the best candidate to defeat Toomey in November.

Fetterman did way better than was predicted, though! I hope he tries for higher office again.

Maybe the Democratic party powers-that-be do know something that we don't...

Fetterman took away a lot of votes that Joe probably would have received, but I can't really say that I'm sorry Fetterman ran. He's a good guy and a good candidate; also hope that he tries for higher office again.
