PacNW Electionapalooza: WA, OR, ID and AK

UPDATE: ID, OR and WA polls now closed. AK polls open for two more hours.

UPDATE II: Washington Senate Race

At 9:09 PM (PST) Murray (D) 50.59% vs Rossi (R) 49.41%

UPDATE III: Links to state results added below the fold.

UPDATE IV: Polls now closed in Alaska

UPDATE V: What Ace just said below (sorry I keep vanishing the thread...trying to add additional links and updates...and royally fucking up at it)

UPDATE VI:

Latest AK Senate results, fresh from the Baked Alaska oven:

McAdams, Scott T. DEM 31827 24.81%
Miller, Joe REP 44502 34.69%
Write-in Votes 50655 39.49%

And the WA Senate race tightens ever so slightly:

Murray (D) 712,359 50.60%
Rossi (R) 695,381 49.40%

Not to worry though. Still plenty of time for King County election workers to find some extra Murray ballots behind filing cabinets, in desk drawers and up their asses in case Rossi should actually pull ahead.

Some additional media links below...will get updates on the races still in play very soon.

Send tips, updates, random musings etc. to xgenghisx (at) gmail (dot) com

Updates, links etc. below the fold. Additional links and info. to be added throughout the evening.

Special greetings to the Sub-Moron Meetup in Fremont tonight. What's the final headcount? Pics/video or it didn't happen. That includes what you plan to do to the Lenin statue later on this evening.

*IMPORTANT NOTE: I'LL BE UPDATING THE POST AS OFTEN AS POSSIBLE. WHEN THAT HAPPENS THE COMMENTS VANISH UNTIL A NEW COMMENT IS MADE, SO DON'T WORRY...THEY HAVEN'T BEEN DISAPPEARED OR ANYTHING*
