Still yet to count

I just thought absentee and early voting ballots were posted first. Evidently not.

but I think they're counted last.

That much I know.

that they've taken to holding the results until same day are counted due to some people trying to raise questions about how the initial counts came in so quickly in 2020 while the rest of the counting takes a while.

I have no idea if that's accurate but it sounds like something a certain political party might try to make an issue of.

Republican Scott Jensen and Matt Birk 158,937 28.65%
Democratic-Farmer-Labor Tim Walz and Peggy Flanagan 380,268 68.54%

The other state-wide races look similar to that

I just updated my thread. I may do so several times tonight.

Walz appears to be outperforming Trump's 2020 margins (at least in Rice Co.)
2022 (91% in )
Walz 52.1%
Jensen 44.5%

Trump 2020
Biden 48.8%
Trump 48.9%

Ty!

I just looked and with 98% of Hennepin County reporting it's"

Mary Moriarty 248,726 57.64%
Martha Holton Dimick 180,243 41.77%

But I’m glad Moriarty did.

and I am also glad Moriarty did.

remained in DFL hands (this Bloomington & Richfield)

In the end, it wasn't even close. The Republican candidate in SD 50 spent $150,000, including a TV ad. We all had a good laugh about that tonight.
