Larger turnouts than 2008 in VA. 6:54 PM Central: Senate: 30 DEM seats called, 37 GOP seats. Leaving the polling place today, there was a couple behind me.

					<description><![CDATA[For various reasons, it has been difficult for the Democrats in Minnesota (called &#8220;DFLers&#8221;) to unseat Republican Congressional Representative Michele Bachmann. This has been partly because the candidates put up were not properly selected (probably) and partly because the people in her district simply liked her. Personally, I think her district started to like her &#8230; <a href="https://gregladen.com/blog/2012/09/10/michele-bachmann-could-be-replaced/" class="more-link">Continue reading <span class="screen-reader-text">Michele Bachmann Could Be Replaced</span> <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
