5. I wish there was a map of where these votes were coming from.
It would tell me a lot more about theo outcome of this race than just seeing total #'s reported.

10. For a year when Dems are supposed to be "less engaged" those are some good numbers. Kentucky was
the same way. This could be good news for Dems and the special election for Murtha's seat.

18. Not so much big Dem turnout as PALTRY Rep turnout. Going to be lot of "splainin' going on tomorrow.
This is going to put media into a tizzy - Where were all of the supposedly "more motivated" Republican voters. People who vote in primaries vote in general elections the same way, party wise.

45. After clicking on random counties
Over half og them, the only one I found that went to Specter was Philly (gee, I wonder why?!). There may be more, but I couldn't find them.
