1. Check out this page from the Cal Sec State:

http://vote.ss.ca.gov/DecJava/Java_intro.html

You pick which races you want to watch and park the viewer in the tray and you can click it open and shut and watch the results scroll by at whatever speed you pick. I have mine all set up and it looks very cool.

:hi:

[mikelgb]

2. the ca 50 race is weird

there is a primary for both parties and the special election to fill the seat...

the one we are interested in now is the seat! and the only link so far I find for it is the top one I posted.

Can you find a link for this race on the CA site?

[Hepburn]

4. What I linked to...

...is all I can find on the special viewer. However, the Sec of State has the usual results page you have to pick through. But it has the same shit....like it ia a primary race.

Weird, huh? :shrug:

[mikelgb]

3. some one should rec. this thread in about a half hour....

;-)

[Hepburn]

5. I would...

...but I already did this. I think I was vote #2, but not sure.

The CA-50 is a BIG race, IMO, and it would be nice to have it on the Greatest Page. If Busby takes it, IMO, the Repugs are in for mega shit in November. IIRC, that is about a 3/2 in fav of the Repugs district.

The crap that the Dukester did really really hurt the Repugs there. It is basically a snooty, rich area....and for one of "their own" to be caught taking bribes...well, suddenly he is about as welcome there as a turd in a punch bowl. Note the issue is "caught taking bribes" and not just the fact that the asshole took bribes. Soooo...that may help Busby ~~ because the Repugs want to look real righteous ALL the time ~~ even though they are the party of crooks and liars.

6. oops.

Who's staying up tonight? :)

[ronnykmarshall]

31. I'm gonna try

I'm praying for Abbe Land in Assembly 42

[Hepburn]

7. Woooooohooooooo....

...after I posted above...I looked and we made the Greatest Page!

Hello, Everyone! :hi:

[mikelgb]

8. btw

I was very impressed with the new system we had in our precinct. You verify your vote three times: first on the screen then on the new paper print out window, then one last chance to cancel your ballot before it is offical.

the poll workers however were very unimpressive and quite inept in fact.

[Hepburn]

9. I had a paper ballot...

...which was fine by me.

[mikelgb]

10. i usually request a paper ballot...

but when I saw that this one had a verified paper trail I thought I would give it a go.

[Hepburn]

12. Nothing like that...

...was available where I voted. So thankfully I had a paper ballot. But what you had sounds good since there was verification on paper for your vote.

Boy, just minutes until the polls close....I think I am going to be up late ~~ mainly watching CA-50.

[schrodingers_cat]

11. kick (n/t)

[kpete]

13. paper ballots at my polling station

soon to be taken over by machines...

Unless we can stop them...

[Hepburn]

14. Looks like the polls are closed...

...and the time on the election results viewer just changed from somewhere around 2:30 PM to 8:00 PM. So.....let's keep our fingers crossed that Calif sends a message to the BuchCo assholes.

:dem:

[Hepburn]

15. First results Dem gov:

Phil Angelides 5,396 49.5

Steve Westly 4,670 42.9

I am just showing the Dem candidates.

[Tiggeroshii]

16. so far it's bilbray-50, busby-42

I don't think she's gonna make it today. Maybe in November, I hope! I also hope very much that I'm wrong...

11% of the precincts counted.

[napi21]

17. I saw that but it's only the absentee ballots. I'm hoping the Pubs

in the 50th are so pi**ed at Cunningham that they're staying home, and the actual vote count will be in Busby's favor!

[Tiggeroshii]

22. I wonder when they'll update.

[napi21]

32. Based on prior State results, probably 3+ hours.

I know I sat up waiting for all the biggies, and even the ones on the East Coast (where I am) took until 11PM or sometimes much later!

Calif is such a BIG State, I'm sure it's going to take a while!

[Tiggeroshii]

33. But it shouldn't take so long for just one congres race

...since it's not statewide.

[cascadiance]

45. They probably had to "doctor" the write-in results I'm guessing!

I voted a write-in of "Paper ballots only" against both Bonnie Dumanis and Dan McCallister. But they both show up as 100% on this page. Huh? I thought 100% means ALL votes! Did they not count my votes here (and not for Busby too with these Diebold central tabulated votes?)

[LibDemAlways]

18. Those early returns are probably absentee ballots

that would tend to favor the repuke. If he's only up by 8 in the early absentee count, it could be a long night.

[Hepburn]

19. U.S. Congress District 50 11.4% ( 57 of 500 ) precincts reporting

Francine Busby 12,036 89.6

Brian P. Bilbray 11,071 52.9

[Hepburn]

20. Hmmmmmmm....

....that info from the Cal Sec of State....makes no sense!

[Tiggeroshii]

21. Where is that from?

It looks like the primaries got mixed up. Actually that's all you posted. Their primary results... got it

[Hepburn]

23. Weird, huh?

That info is ALL I can find on the Sec of State site. So...I have just been watching the vote #s of Busby and Bilbray. That is all I can figure out to do.

:shrug:

[Tiggeroshii]

27. lol it's on the first link

Don't worry any longer,

http://www.sdvote.org/election/congress.xml

Scroll down a little bit to the 50th contests until it says "uS House of representatives 50th Runoff election"

[Hepburn]

29. Thanks! n/t

[Zhade]

24. Sad how people let Feinstein slide.

Well, what can I say? Lots of uninformed voters out there. Lots of people okay with losing civil liberties.

Boy, I'm glad I'm leaving this country soon. I don't know how to combat the willful ignorance anymore. Good luck, guys.

You'll need it.

[ronnykmarshall]

28. Bye

[mikelgb]

35. I did not.

[CountAllVotes]

46. me either

and I never will votes for her again. :puke:

[schrodingers_cat]

25. Arghhh - Arnie landsliding in early polling at 91% for Repub side

http://vote.ss.ca.gov/Returns/gov/00.htm

Angelides is ahead.

[LibDemAlways]

26. Ahnold had no meaningful opposition and

thus far has laid low.

Angelides is ahead in the absentee count, but its going to be very close and could go either way.

[ronnykmarshall]

30. Go BOWEN!

Democratic View Map
Debra Bowen 255,814 64.8
Deborah Ortiz 139,189 35.2

[thatsrightimirish]

34. I hope Speier, Reilly, and Nevin win nt

[ronnykmarshall]

36. I loves me some Jackie Speier!

:loveya:

[thatsrightimirish]

37. 5 precincts returning

Mcnerney 52.5
Filson 28.7

[Hatalles]

41. I'm more interested in the Republican results in Dist. 11.

I would like to see McCloskey beat out Pombo for the GOP nomination. I can't believe Pombo is in the 60's right now... we have too many nuts in San Joaquin.

[EFerrari]

38. Bowen is looking good.

PLEASEPLEASEPLEASE!

[proud patriot]

40. I know

:woohoo:

[EFerrari]

43. I want to see the INK. They could still tank her, I mean, glitch her. nt

[Zomby Woof]

39. Thank you for these links

I am disappointed in the results so far for the two propositions. But not surprised. :-(

[mikelgb]

42. no problemo

still up here in Fullerton wating the tallies

[mikelgb]

44. Midnight.

Looks like Busby is still trailing with a little under 50% precincts reporting.
