I predict that the outcome of the elections will be...

Republicans retain control of both House & Senate:		5 (10.9%)
Republicans retain Senate, Democrats win House:		19 (41.3%)
Democrats win Senate, Republicans retain House:		2 (4.3%)
Democrats win both House & Senate:		14 (30.4%)
I am unable to answer:		6 (13.0%)
Total:	46

The Democrats need to control 51 seats in the Senate to have control. Lieberman has said he will caucus with the Democrats, so a win for Lieberman is, for all practical purposes, a Democratic seat.

I'm just curious to see the results versus the poll I ran six weeks ago.

Playing it safe here and going with Dem's taking the house but not senate.

MSNBC has already declared winners in 3 races already. Guess they didn't have to worry about absentee ballots in Vermont, Indiana and W. Virginia. I don't expect to have final count for Maryland Senate and Governor Races, for a few days since so many folks asked for absentee ballots, that ACLU tried to get an extension for when they had to be post marked.

Nope, they still trying to fix problems caused by the inexperience 1000 year old poll workers there.

I should stop trying to use elections to pad my post count as it just adds to my typo rate.

I'd like to know who's winning but I refuse to watch regular TV to find out SO someone post results.

Now, damnit!

Besides I'm sure Nobby is on pins and needles needing to know.

The Tribune has a little Flash map showing the Senate races. The House is a bit harder to track due to sheer size.

Edit: Election Projection has scorecards tracking the races (including the House) and Electoral Vote is supposed to have some tracking up soon. Links in the sig.
