At 8pm, a number of new races are being called, including the contentious three-way Florida race between Republican Marco Rubio, Independent Charlie Crist and Democrat Kendrick Meek. Early news projections are calling the race for Rubio — a significant victory for conservative tea partiers.
Delaware and Connecticut Senate races are being called for Democrats Chris Coons and Richard Blumenthal, respectively.

Posted on November 2, 2010 at 9:49pmThank God Florida showed our true colors.
Am I the only one who is melancholy about this election though? I mean…We won the house, that is given, and we are sure to pick up at least 6-7 senate seats…But I was really expecting a tidal wave here. I am disappointed. I thought for sure America was waking up that we were seeing a revival. But I guess it is just business as usual…
Be interesting to see what happens in Nevada…
