Bad News For McConnell: Heavy Turnout Reported In Kentucky Urban Areas Likely For Grimes

[Playinghardball]

Democrats seem intent on not repeating the stay home fail of 2010.

Kentucky politics expert Joe Sonka of Insider Louisville reported hearing that turnout has already hit 20% in some Louisville precincts.

Louisville and Lexington are likely Democratic areas where Democratic Secretary of State Alison Lundergan Grimes will need huge turnout in order to have a chance at ousting incumbent Senator Mitch McConnell (R-KY).

1. Excellent news!!!

[jimlup]

2. Holding my breath!

We need the voters at the polls right now!

[upaloopa]

3. Is that 20% as of now and will get larger as the day goes on?

If there is only one piece of good news for us tonight I would like it to be Grimes wins.

13. A Grimes win...

...and Ernst loss!

[Jack Rabbit]

15. Does a Grimes win disqualify Mr. Toad as a TV host?

??

19. Did it disqualify Hucksterbee?

Of course, there's a difference between a preacher-type who is used to haranguing people from a pulpit, and the boring turtle-man. I think that's what disqualifies him.

4. One can hope, but these report on heavy turnout you hear during election day

often turn out not to mean anything. But I would love to se the turtle gone. I have Kentucky friends and would be very happy for them, as well as for the country.

5. Heavy turnout reported in Walker recall

I know right. Heavy turnout was reported in Walker recall and everybody was excited all day about what that could mean and then well, Kathy Nicklaus from Waukesha came up with all those hidden votes on her computer and the rest is history.

But still, I will take any sort of good news down there in Kentucky!!

[kcr]

6. Yes, I remember that.

Cautiously optimistic.

7. I hope it's because the voters are fed up.

I've read in several places where this will not be a good year
for incumbents. I hope that is so in TurkeyNecks's case.

10. The secret black box vote "counting" machines will take care of THAT!

[Dopers_Greed]

11. "Heavy Turnout" is reported in every election

I'm hopeful, but not optimistic.

12. What was Mitch saying about

14. as james brown pleaded 'please, please, please'.....

16. I voted in my small town in Kentucky

around noon. The parking lot was full. Two years ago, I voted around the same time and it wasn't that crowded. Don't know what that means, but I hope it's good. 30 miles east of Lexington.

Can't stomach the thought of McConnell once again.

[Elmer S. E. Dump]

17. please please please!!

[standingtall]

18. I really hope this is true

but I only believe what I see and when I went to vote this afternoon there was only like 3 or 4 people in there. There is usually more, but then again I normally vote in the morning so we will see.

[Reter]

20. As much as I hate to go over there, check out Freak Republic

Some are hoping for a McConnel loss, so they can get a new Senate leader.

[n2doc]

21. Must have been t-baggers

She lost.

[maced666]

22. Oh, well.

Hope for awhile...seems to be the theme.
