Looks like +4 for Dems so far and could get worse, but GOP holds some big ones. IA too close to call, but turning back to Rep late; only farmers in the sticks left to count. Walker still behind in WI; would be great to hold on to that one but he's running out of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, California (right now) is looking surprising (from what I'm hearing/seeing). Can't imagine what surprises you'll find here. Maybe they repeal the gas tax, but I can't imagine much else.

I don't really give a ***** if I have to pay 10 cents now for a bag, but can't you just have one prop that says "Plastic bags, Yes or No?" Last time there were good ones like legal pot and no condoms for porn stars. This year's was nothing but money grabs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
