that you can register in the state where you attend college.

2. Tester is ours, right?
Voted for Sherrod fucking Brown this morning. Hell yeah, hell yeah, hell yeah. Hit the bricks, DeWine. Maybe DeWine and Santorum can form a travelling comedy act. DeWine can be the straight man and Santorum can be "Costello."

3. interesting. I scanned it, not sure if this is likely voters or not.
The enthused republican voter number seems suspiciously high.

4. just updated....
Ford 44%
Corker 50%
still within the margin of error (i think) with polls likely to be open later than 7:00pm, now.

11. i think he's referring to the avg. of the latest poll number, which could be misleading.
Since the avg of polls include 2 poll where Ford was down by +10%, but all the recent polls say Ford has closed the gap.

6. 40 percent of Tenn. voters voted early
That means they voted before the polls shifted to Corker. Could be a wild card, since Dems were pushing blacks to vote early to avoid typical long lines in urban areas. This could be a major upset.

7. Ford really gaining momentum since being down, it's almost even.
It's also reported Ford leading in early voting returns.

Also Corker camp is worried that the rain will keep their voters home.

12. Ford could win if Ford's base is more energized than his opponent's
Even if the polls are a few percentage points against Ford, a victory could be gained if participation rates with Dems is higher than with the Repubs, but in close races, both sides are generally energized to GOTV.
