9:27 PM: If you’re focused on NJ-Gov, take a moment to look at the results in Maine. Not many votes yet but a narrow lead for the marriage equality side.
9:29 PM: Those Christie/Corzine numbers haven’t looked great for Corzine. But we’ve got Eric Kleefeld here in electoral mad scientist mode reading the entrails of the counties. And he keeps saying Corzine’s holding on. More to come on this one. Neck and neck in Bergen at the moment (Eric is saying that’s the bellwether and I’m pretending I already knew that.)
9:40 PM: Nets call it for Bloomberg.
9:42 PM: County by county breakdown looking a little better for Christie in New Jersey.
9:52 PM: Our vote cruncher is looking at the county by county and sees Christie solidly in the driver’s seat — poor metaphor, but, you know, in solid position. Doesn’t seem clear where Corzine picks up enough more Democratic votes to close the gap.
10:02 PM: Not sure what to make of it. But MSNBC has uncalled the New York Mayor’s race. The Times is still calling it. Not sure what that’s about. But we’re looking into it.
10:04 PM: According to Rachel Maddow, Thompson, the Democrat, had already called Bloomberg to concede the race. But the local monitoring service that MSNBC relied on to make the call withdrew their prediction in favor of Bloomberg. And thus MSNBC pulled theirs too. As you can see from our scorecard down at the right, the numbers are actually pretty tight with 40% recording. The Times, which one would assume has a good handle on the city, is still calling it for Bloomberg.
