54%-46% Lamont leading, with 38 percent of districts reporting.
I read this on the bottom of a screen that had a singing contest with a young woman dressed in a gold lamé ouotfit singing Mott The Hoople's All The Young Dudes.
That is not a song for a female to sing.
It's tightening up. Lamont ahead, 52-48 percent with 50% of precincts reporting.
Lamont seems to be winning the small towns, Lieberman is doing well in the cities. He won Waterbury and squeaked out a win in New London.
I have no idea if the remaining 50% is small town or larger city returns.
Big cities report last. They decide the election.
Too bad it's just a couple Dems.
Still 52-48 Lamont, with 68% of precincts reporting.
This is going to decide the Senate seat, cj. Nobody even heard of the Republican. Whoever he is.
52-48 Lamont w/68% of precincts reporting; looks like Lieberman gets to put up or shut up on his "Run as an independent" threat. Meanwhile, down in Georgia, Cynthia McKinney is running a 3-to-2 loser to her runoff opponent with just over a third of precincts reporting.
Thanks for the report, Timber. That race is of national interest, too. Please keep us posted.
51-48 percent Lamont with 80% of precincts reporting.
Lieberman is not leading in all the larger cities. Hartford looks like an even split.
Same percentages, with 83% of precincts reporting.
At some point soon, it is going to be tough for Lieberman to make up that 3 percent.
Same margin, 86 percent of precincts reporting.
I'm on the edge of my seat.
With two thirds of precincts reporting, McKinney 41.8%, Johnson 58.2%; at this point, McKinney would have to pick up nearly 3/4 of the remaining uncounted votes to pull off a win. Her 15 minutes are over.
Lamont could lose every remaining vote and still win. What remains to be seen is how Lieberman will play his hand.
Same margin, 92 percent of precincts reporting.
Lieberman looks like he's running out of time to make up the 3% difference.
It's probably about to be a moot point, but if Lieberman is trailing by 3 percent and 8 percent of the votes are uncounted, I don't see how Lamont could lose every vote left and still win.
Connecticut TV reports that Lieberman has made up his mind to run as an independent-his campaign said so today.
Bye bye Cindy.
Lieberman has just announced he is going to run as an independent.
He called this nomination just "the first half".
8% of the precincts remained to be counted, KW, not 8% of the votes. The registered voter total in the uncounted precincts is insufficient to reverse Lieberman's deficit.
This just in - Lieberman concedes, congratulates Lamont by phone, now speaking on live TV from his HQ; he's going independent.
Thanks for the updates guys.
