    Georgia Libertarians had a great night. In Georgia candidates must get 50% to win an election and avoid a runoff. It appears that Allen Buckley (U.S. Senate) and Brandon Givens (Public Service Commission) both caused Dec. runoffs.

    Also, additional BIG news is that John Monds (candidate for Public Service Commission, which is a statewide election) broke the 1,000,000 vote mark! PLUS, he won at least two large Metro Atlanta counties (DeKalb and Clayton).

    Looks like socially regressive props are ahead in early Cali vote counts

  5. Catholic Trotskyist November 5, 2008

    Richard Carroll (Green) is leading in Arkansas in his unusual state house yet.

    All of this, however, is nothing compared to the monumental, earth-crushing, earth-shattering victory of the Catholic Trotskyist Party of America, the new third party that is changing the Democratic Party into a religiously conservative-leaning, but otherwise socialist, political rampart. May God shine upon the stars of Generals Obama and Biden, and may peace be unto all God’s people on Earth, amen. Time to celebrate!

    @ CNN

    US Sen 56-40, 4 still undecided

  7. Catholic Trotskyist November 5, 2008

    What’s the deal with this Richard Duncan person?

    Tim Mahoney in that legislative district probably had some trouble because he has the same name as that disgraced Democratic Florida congressman.

    The only Republican to be endorsed by the Catholic Trotskyist Party, Tim Rooney, defeated disgraced Florida candidate Tim Mahoney. I assume Barrett lost too. Pollina is also losing.

    MSNBC says McCain wins Georgia. Sigh, there goes one of the main spoiler arguments by the Barr campaign.

  79. Catholic Trotskyist November 4, 2008

    There was some hope that Obama would win Alabama, but it was finally called for McCain.

    Matthews’s guest mentions that there may have been 80% turnout in Virginia.

  80. Catholic Trotskyist November 4, 2008

    Paulie, I’m not giving an opinion about Pennsylvania, I’m just repeating what Chris Matthews said. I am also dubious about people declaring the election right after the polls closed, but they seem awfully confident there, and don’t seem to be worried about a Florida 2000 situation.

    It does seem to be a good night for Nader over Barr, but Barr is doing better in places where Nader is not on.

    Vermont was one of the first states to be called for Obama, but nothing has been declared about the governor’s race. I’m surprised that Callero did better than La Riva there.

  81. LaineRBT November 4, 2008

    God I hope Nader improves over 04. Granted most of the states that are reporting are not areas where has a large base of support so hopefully he does well in CA, NY, MA etc.

    Peter,

    It looks like FoxNews’ thing lists most people on the ballot. Im hoping that here at IPR we’ll have decent liveblog coverage.

    It looks like Barr is benefitting from being the only third-party candidate in Indiana. He’s over 1% so far.

  109. Trent Hill November 4, 2008

    GE is at a hotel watching the returns with his wife and kid. Im aobut to leave to goto an election party.

    Peter, as much as it pains me to say it—there arent really any.
    FoxNews’s site has decent coverage of the third-party votes.
