8:41 PM: How about that Souder guy?
8:46 PM: Remember, as a general matter, Specter has to really clean up in Philly to be in this thing. So that’ll be the key early tell.
8:48 PM: Rand Paul now rhapsodizing about Tea Party movement. Now explaining why Obama is pal of third world radicals. CNN producer tweets: “Rand Paul’s victory party isn’t a Tea Party rager. Appears to be mostly his friends and supporters from the community and country club.”
9:03 PM: CNN just went to Larry King with hourlong interview with Mick Jagger. I admit it was hard not to insist we stay on that.
9:11 PM: Maybe Specter is still in this thing. Most of the chatter of the day has talked in terms of low turnout which most figure would be bad for Specter. But now it’s seeming like those predictions of low turnout were wrong or perhaps that there was a late surge of turnout.
9:22 PM: Note the results so far in the Dem Senate primary in Arkansas (on our scoreboard to the right). Lincoln has to get over 50% to clinch this tonight and avoid a runoff.
9:27 PM: Helpful map of results so far in PA.
9:36 PM: Down to a 2 point spread in PA-Sen race with 28% reporting.
