Drudge is now providing links to state results pages:

...although it may take a little poking around to find the actual results links on those pages.

Looks like Tass is getting his info from CNN, which has a pretty good site for election coverage.
Foxnews is calling the AR Senate race for the Democrat, Pryor, though CNN has yet to do so. CNN has him up 54-46%, though only 38% of all precincts have reported...

Romney (R) wins Mass?
He was going against a real ass-kicker.

Wow. Mass. has a Republican governor. That either means he's VERY moderate or that there will be major gridlock in the Mass. legislature over the next few years.
Or the populace is changing. But that's just too much to hope for, isn't it?
Currently (according to CNN)
Senate (51 needed for majority)
Rep: 47
Dem: 46
House (218 needed for majority)
Rep: 181
Dem: 151
Gov (36 at stake)
Rep: 19
Dem: 14
OMG! Roy Barnes (D) is losing the GA Governor race! (75% reporting)

Quite a bit too much to hope for.
I have to admit that I was impressed with his opponent. Watched a debate where she called him a liar and cheat straight up, and seemed like a nice person after she said it!

Morella lost MD 8.
There goes one of the few remaining republican moderates.
Turnout was very heavy in spite of pouring rain. Took me 45 minutes to vote.

For some reason, the Democ-rat theme this year:
"I'm a whiny **** and I'm OK"
does not seem to have played as well as they expected.

I must say (the Nevada results aside ), it's looking like a VERY good night for the "Red Staters". At this point Colorado, South Dakota, Minnesota, and Missouri appear likely to go 3-4 or 4-4 Republican. That would be A HUGE upset!

Here's how things are looking in the undeclared Senate races so far (12:20pm, CNN)
Alaska Senate: 0 votes for anybody, 0% precincts reporting. Stevens (Republican) is the incumbent. According to CNN, they're still voting.
Colorado: Allard (R) leads 51-44%, 65% reporting
Louisiana: Landreiu (D) leads 3 Republicans 46-27-14-10, 95% reporting.
Minnesota: Coleman (R) leads 54-43%, 12% reporting.
Missouri: Talent (R) leads 52-46%, 65% reporting
South Dakota: Johnson (D) leads 51-48%, 59% reporting
Wow!!! Perdue (R) beats Barnes for the Governorship of Georgia!! That was unexpected! (By me, anyway).

It surprised Barnes too as well... Even as late as last night, he was predicting a victory... a close one, but still a victory.

They've just called Colorado for Allard - That means the Dems have to sweep the last three (I'm ignoring Louisiana here) - and that won't happen 2of 3 will probably go "Red". Missouri is almost a Republican lock, and that will transfer control of the Senate back to the Republicans overnite (technically - the parliamentiary maneuvers will boggle the mind as Daschle et al struggle to hold on)

Libertarians polled 10% in the Wisconsin governor race, with over 157,000 votes.
Also polled 5% in Oregon with 35,000, and most other places 1-2%.
In Senate races, Libertarian candidates polled 9% in Kansas, with 66,000 votes.
Also, 19% (!) in Massachusetts, with 329,000 votes. Admittedly, a Republican was not running, but that is still amazing!
In the House, Libertarians achieved the following:
6% in Arizona.
4% in Indiana
Not as strong in the House races, it appears.
In all, though, a very good showing for the Libertarian party, especially in Wisconsin and Massachusetts, where they hit double digits.

Yes, I know.
And the Democrats are ****ed, after this election. Which is too bad, really. Having hawkish right-wingers in control of the entire nation is going to be disastrous.

2% Libertarian vote in CA is respectable.
Although that Green vote is the highest I've seen in any election return this year - considering it's CA, I'm not surprised.
