I had two losses and two "too close to call's" for those races I was mainly concerned about.
I don't consider Cuomo winning a loss for me, I went Libertarian on that one as I could not fill in the dot for Paladino
Schummer and Gillibrand back in.
Bishop and Altshuler (US house, 1st district) is too close to call.
Then in the state senate it's Foley and Zeldin too close to call.

To get on the general election ballot and challenge Martha Coakley, he needed 10,000 votes. He got an eye-popping 27,711 votes, despite a challenger (Guy Carbone) who ALSO got over 10,000 votes.

And I really hope he manages to defeat "Marcia" Coakley, who is best known for bungling a slam-dunk Senate race and getting Scott Brown elected.
Shows what you know. Martha crushed McKenna -- 2:1. I think she may be back in 2012 to take on Brown again.
talk about not learning your lesson
Indeed, she did learn an lesson, ran a terrific race for AG, and even the fish wrapper right-wing Herald endorsed her.

I didn't expect him to win...I stopped underestimating the insanity of the RI/MA electorate a while ago. Hell, you managed to re-re-re-re-re-elect the obnoxious (not to mention NOXIOUS) Barney Frank 16 times. I give up. Time to rent out Massachusetts & Rhode Island by the acre for target practice.
