1. It isn't over yet...

The gap is less than .5% - there will likely be a recount.

A third party candidate could have messed this one up.
Minnesotans sometimes do odd things (remember Governor Jesse the body Venture?), but I would not question the honesty or validity of their elections. Whatever happens, it was fair and not stolen.

11. I hope so, too
I had hoped it wouldn't be this close, but deep down I had a feeling it would be.

I'm REALLY disappointed in the 6th district race. Michele Bachmann AGAIN. Ugh!! WHY oh WHY can't we get rid of this woman?!?

8. Don't give up yet!!
It's tightening and we still have a lot of votes from Duluth and Hennepin County that haven't been counted yet (Dem areas). There is still hope, my friends!!

16. I see him down only 700.
11% to go... and most of the areas left to report their final results are blue on the map. I like his chances.
