    FOX called NC for the Republicans as well. We're looking at 54 R / 46 D in the senate.

      Looks like NC is being called for Tillis. That's +7 to the GOP and we still have Alaska and the LA runoff.

      I voted for Gillespie but did not see this coming, unbelievable.

          Little bit bummed about Gillespie, but hey, it was a great run!

              I think the VA election and Colorado should be a shot across the bow for Democrats. It was going to be bad but this has turned into a bloodbath. Their schtick isn't working.

                Problem has always been about getting the Senate and House to work together. Unless Congress intends to concentrate on sending stuff they know is going to get vetoed(lol obamacare) for the next two years, then at least some legislation is going to get passed. Might not be what you like, but it'll get passed.

                  Yeah, Obama's not gonna like having to use his veto over and over again, and furthermore, the GOP can put some EXTREMELY embarrassing votes on the record for democrats. There are a lot of bills that can eviscerate Obamacare without outright repealing it that Obama will be hard pressed to find the political weight to veto.

                    The governor races were supposed to be a Dem bright spot, it looks like they will be lucky to increase their number there at all but there are quite a few races still undecided.

                      Yeah and weirdly none of the networks have called VA. It's now looking astonishing that the Dems won New Hampshire. Youth vote turnout was abysmal, ~13%. If that happens again in 2016, say, because Obama or a similarly charismatic figure isn't on the ticket, they're in trouble.

                              People laughed at my predictions but the only bad call was NM. Off by a percent in NH and not off in VA.

                              If they recount VA and Warner loses, that puts the GOP up plus 9. Landslide.
