Posted by Cyn_NY on August 8, 2006 at 08:56 PM I hope this thing is settled soon. I can't face another 2AM night.
Me too. I have to be to work early tomorrow. Talk about bad scheduling. Of course, my bosses are Republicans. :)
Good Evening, Everyone!
What a pleasant evening for CT.
I am so glad Pam invited me to support Lamont.
:)
I look forward to finally reading about Ned on this site tomorrow.
I wonder if Condi Lies-A-Lot will get the assignment to break the news to her husband?
ah, what a interesting day tomorrow will be with all those Democrats that put their two cents in on this race having to decide if they will support the Democrat or the sore loser independent. :)
Dors, my boss is a very liberal dem, but not so much involved as I. However, I have republican relatives, which is stressful enough.
17% in a Lamont is holding!

"I pledge to explore and take into account the social and environmental consequences of any job I consider and will try to improve these aspects of any organizations for which I work."
hey people...are we all excited or what?
sandy...i'm not sure how many other colleges and universities have a similar sort of pledge for its graduates, but i think we could use a lot more of them besides this one at humboldt state university...especially for journalism graduates!
boiler man
WHERE IS CHUCK????
We need him here tonight.
Hello, friends in, and outside, CT. I left my editor a message to vote. He got in from Guatemala late last night but hopefully got himself out today for Ned.
You guys, please let me know about the Great Northeastern Meet-up. I've been quite busy this spring and summer but expect to have more time once my next book project is finished and the kids are off at school in the fall.
Lizzy, sure wish Jen was here. It feels a bit like 04 but hopefully with happier results. :)
did anyone pick up on dpd's last post to the previous thread?...
UUUHHHH OHHHHH!!!
>>>>>>>>>>>BREAKING NEWS!! >>>>>>>>>>>
The Conn. Sec of State official voting website HAS CRASHED!!!!!
(OBVIOUSLY THE LIEBERTHUGS ARE BEHINS THIS).
Can we say "Jean Schmidt" again? Remember, the Ohio SoS site pulled that same stunt and Mean Jean's loss suddenly became A WIN.
(msnbc JUST ANNOUNCED IT).

Good news.
isn't there someone at the place where these votes are being tallied who has a cell phone?
So many sites are crashing...
Something is seriously going on that they are all crashing. Alittle disturbing.
Posted by Cyn_NY on August 8, 2006 at 09:36 PM Hey, for all you regulars, where is Jen?
Don't know, Cyn. I'll email her.
I liked the 60/40 split better.

Isn't there something else they can be chatting about? Like something having to do with THE FUTURE OF THE U.S. of A.?
It is very interesting that the figures are slowing changing to support Joe.
I know that a change like that is possible.
However, this is just a bit TOO much like November 2004.
Does anybody have a NO BUSH bumper sticker for sale?Posted by Paul on August 8, 2006 at 09:04 PM
No I don't have that one Paul but I just put
"I never Thought I'd Miss Nixon" bumper sticker in my car....
I wish the networks would keep on the Lamont story - we need to know!
Either can I, gregg; it's getting too close for comfort. Shades of 2000 and 2004
Posted by gregg on August 8, 2006 at 09:38 PM i can't take it.
Yea - that's the crappy thing about caring. :)
Lizzy, these sites are taking a huge load of hits, there will be a point were they can't accomodate all the traffic. The link above is working but it is slow to respond.

Anyone have Air America on - what are they reporting?
DailyKos gabbly is on fire
fyi
Per Rose:
56% Lamont ahead 52-48
Folks from CT should know if this is a normal pattern. When I worked elections in Wisconsin, we all knew which precincts reported first, and how they'd break was pretty much indicative of the final tally. And where are the exit polls?
if you go to the hartford courant site and click on all campaigns you get a pretty good update. with 56% in lamont is up by 4%.
Per Rose:
57% Lamont ahead 52-48
We are holding ground!!
actually he is up by 4.34%
if the %change stays fairly constant per %increase reporting...then i'd agree something smells...anybody know how this projects to 100%?
Kos as logged about over 1,000 comments in less than an hour. :)
Livebloggimg from Lamont headquarters. I just caught this:
Tim Tagaris chatting with someone. The bloggers' room has largely emptied out for now - CT Blogger is the only person I recognize here right now.
MAJOR UPDATE: 80% OF THE VOTE COUNTED: 117K VOTES FOR LAMONT, 103K FOR LIEBERMAN. Someone calculate this! CT Blogger is saying, "It's over." Let's wait and see.
Looks like it's gonna be a LONG night after all.

where is that 80% figure coming from? i am staying with the hartford paper.
I wish Tim had done a live broadcast from there.
52% Lamont 48% Lieberman.....still holding
what is the amount needed to avoid an automatic recount?
71.79% in lamont by 3.22%
who's got the spreadsheet to work this thing out??
Hey guys! What's the good Ned word?
{{{{{JEN}}}}} we were missing you! Ned still has a lead although it is smaller than we would like.
howdy all...69% in, still up by 4. my friend Nancy Cohen of NPR is reporting from the Lamont HQ on radio!
hey jen!...is it really you?
Air America reporting - 72% reporting 51%/48% Lamont
Lieberman has personally enabled the loss of thousands of lives and billions of dollars.
Maybe God does answer prayers.

Don't know where they got the 80% reporting number from - it was on the liveblogging from Lamont's HQ journal.

Hillary Clinton will be the last fence-sitter in the country.
--- Chris Matthews
for what it is worth the hartford courant is showing new haven to lamont by 40 points with 35 of 45 polling places reporting and no figures for hartford yet....sooo....
rjsnj, they are rounding up.
yes, c'est moi, 1234. wow, almost {{{all my fave peeps}}} are here! i'm noivous! i want ned to win desperately.
Dean-Democrats ROCK! GO LAMONT! -- Joltn' Joe better fall in line behind the winner - if he's a real Democrat.
I hope Mrs. Clinton is taking notes - she could go down just like Joe....
Posted by DPD on August 8, 2006 at 09:59 PM
thanks, dpd...
at least i'm not standing in Copley Sq. with the rain falling on my head like that horrible night a few Novembers ago.
god it's so good see you guys! i really missed you all.
This primary thing is nerve wrecking! Is anyone else having trouble getting on DailyKos or MyDD? Something seems fishy; I can't get onto either of those websites, and this is a fairly important night to do so.
no figures for hartford yet....sooo....
****
I would imagine that hartford will take the longest to count.
If Tweety wants to talk about "fence" sitters, I'd like to ask him about his not so recent carreer move of having Bush sit on HIS FACE!

PSI fighter live blogging on Dkos say prominent CT Republicans will endorse Joe tomorrow as an Independent.
Posted by Chris on August 8, 2006 at 10:02 PM
I was able to get on not too long ago, but it took awhile.
i think the hartford courant is the best bet.
They're saying Hartford will be key...
79% counted and no change
gregg, I got me a bottle of the bubbly left over from then too. Tattingers, I think it's spelled.
kos is overloaded with people trying to log on.
tonight is an important night for America
Eyewitness News 3 is now saying a Lamont win...
79% counted and no change

That 80% counted with 4% lead is looking right ... still don't know where it came from other than the person liveblogging at Lamont's HQ.

kathy if hartford is key i think that is good news because lamont took the other big city new haven by 40 points with most of the precincts in .

I think I'll take the opportunity to do some db maintenance myself.
SORRY my mistake lamont took new haven by about 5 points.
I am not calling it, til all the votes are counted.
Posted by bb on August 8, 2006 at 10:02 PM
this feels ever so much better, doesn't it? i loved Uncle Colin. author, author!!
come on Harford C-span went to call in - the first caller from Boston said she was a Republican and gave to Joe - she siad she was horrified that the people of CT would turn their back on such a great man - --- gag
Evenin, Dems. Just dropping by to congratulate everyone that worked so hard in Conn, espescially Miss Pam, who I adore. Win, lose, or draw, you have much to be proud of!
They're saying Hartford will be key...

Supposedly, the turnout in the big cities was lighter than expected ...
keep our fingers crossed. I won't believe anything until one of them concedes.

Oh, Firedog Lake out too. Sigh
I think I'll take the opportunity to do some db maintenance myself.

Jen - it's good getting back on the blog isn't it?

From the liveblogging thread:
Update: Don't know total %, but its 123K for Ned, 109 for Lieberman. Roughly a 6% point lead, just like the last Q-poll said.

If so, I believe it is a Lamont win!!! Word has it that Lamont will be speaking within the hour.
Hang on!!!!!
hey Mack! How's T.I.T.S.?

Fade, DPD, anyone else I may have missed, good to be here for the big win, so glad that all of you are still hard at it in here. Satan around?
HI, I'm still here. My husband's pleased with me because this site and Night Bird's Fountain have the fastest results. He's on the New York Times site, which has given him nothing.

Remember that "We're sorry" website from overseas?
Hey Mack, I'm here and glad to see you back! Even if it only for the Lamont Party. :)
we haven't won till we won. bridgeport is the biggest city and it is going for lieberman by about 2 points with 80% in. new haven in next biggest and it is going for lamont by about 3 point with 90 % in...hartford is the same size as new haven....so we are close but don't do the worm yet , get the fucker in the bag first.
We gonna have a sleepless night because of GOOD news for a change? It's about time!

I think I am going to take a personal day in November as well. Here in Florida, Davis needs all the help he can get in his bid for governorship against your typical run-of-the-mill arrogant and slimy republican Charlie Christ.
This night brings back memories of November two years ago, in Cincy with Jen right after the election. Good Lord, what a sad time that was!
Has the tide finally turned???

The Last Waiting Game
Well, the numbers haven't changed here officially on the tote board, but word is leaking out, not for attribution, that considering what's in and from which precincts, we.won.
that's we dot won....Lamont is expected at the podium soon, and Drudge reports that Lieberloser lost the primary.
premature, but pary on, prematurely, i say
86.63% in lamont by 3.66%
Mom - I remeber how sad it was and for days afterwards... but we keep blogging and fighting and that's what it's all about.. it was at that time I decided to become involved and I'm so glad I did!
From the liveblogging thread:
Chris Bowers, hard at work.
The big screen in the ballroom still shows a 14K lead for Lamont, 124K to 110K. Waiting for final results...
Update: I just heard that Lamont has won every precinct in Hartford. Again, take it for what you will.
I've decided to name the now 3 month old foal. I think Ned suits him.
Posted by MisterMack on August 8, 2006 at 10:24 PM
That's Ms. Jac kay to you.
this i hope will be the promise of november...
A place to stay
enough to eat
somewhere old heroes shuffle safely down the street
where you can speak out loud
about your doubts and fears
and what's more no-one ever disappears
you never hear their standard issue kicking in your door
you can relax on both sides of the tracks
and maniacs don't blow holes in bandsmen by remote control
and everyone has recourse to the law
and no-one kills the children anymore
and no-one kills the children anymore

i used to live in kent conn. it went for lamont by 40 points. i guess the stuff i put in the resevoir worked.

Chris, good for you taking the personal day for the November election. Wish all good Democrats could do that. Everyone who can, MUST. It's going to take boots on the ground from now till November. Dang, I feel some energy coming back.
Somebody mentioned earlier, Beantown I think, that it's like old home week on the blog tonight. Sure enough! I see old friends and new here. I was feeling so low, but I'm beginning to think this old gray mare has one more good uphill pull left in her :-D

Gig, poor McKinney, she's eccentric as hell, but her positions seem rock solid. Her Dad was a hoot.

Hi {{Jacque}}
I must be nervous because I feel like eating a peanut butter sandwich with potato chips stuffed in between and washing it all down with a beer...
I'll give it ten more minutes then I need to go to bed...

Rose, you're right about being sad for months-- years even! But finally the dark clouds seem to be parting.
Esmeralda dear, let's spell it out for the benefit of the city boys et. al.,

Not to be confused with CRIMINAL, which is always malicious and illegal-- like Bush wiretapping without due process.
