Per Daily Kos tweets:
4:45 PM PT: With 42 percent reporting in Florida, Charlie Crist retains a 49-46 lead. The good news? Nothing yet from Dem-heavy Miami-dade county.
RT @JoeNBC: GOP official in Florida just told me, "The early numbers look good for Charlie. I don't know if we can pull this off. #FlaPol

4:50 PM PT: Charlie Crist may have coattails. Republican hopes to pick up FL-18 are dead, with Democrat Patrick Murphy winning GOP-heavy Martin County 56-44 with 61 percent in. CNN just called it, a Democratic hold. Murphy should've been the most vulnerable freshman.
Meanwhile, Hillsborough County is coming in even stronger for Charlie Crist as election-day votes are counted.
And in FL-02, Democrat Gwen Graham is leading odious Rep. Steve Southerland 60-40. That would be a Democratic pickup. At least in Florida, no wave.
on edit: 5:09 PM PT: Charlie Crist is running ahead of the Democratic candidate in 2010 in Miami-Dade, obviously a good sign. Indeed, incumbent Republican Gov. Rick Scott is running behind his 2010 performance in every single county. And he won that race by a single point.

(7,867 posts)That doesn't even seem like a very "extreme" position, simply legalizing medical marijuana.
